I feel like that’s more the nature of luxury-priced products than reflection of their actual capabilities. Out of the box a Range Rover is a better off roader than a Jeep, more locking differentials, and more ground…
By the time you’re a young professional your credit is honestly pretty decently established, hell I tried to buy a house on an internship and they qualified me for a 250k mortgage with a 48k salary. Hell I know guys…
For the ability to comfortably use my phone one handed, I found the battery trade-off worth it. But I don’t really travel far enough with just what’s on my person for it to be noticeable. At the very least I have a…
I agree, and don’t really get it either. Some stores it’s even advertised that their goods are appraised at more than their price. Maybe it’s a marketing thing, but to me it just feels like fraud against whoever has to…
That’s how I got a lavish engagement ring for my wife, I simply bought it used from a guy who’d bought it a year ago for a relationship that fell apart. Met him at a jewelry store and had it verified and appraised, he…
Maybe I’m projecting my own personal experience, but I doubt public chargers are a significant percentage of most people’s charging. Before buying an EV, I was super concerned with public charging infrastructure. Now as…
As someone recovering from a back injury, I was excited as hell to work from home. 6-8 weeks later, I wondered why my back hurt so damn much. I had no idea how much my office’s slow elevators and 5 flights of stairs had…
Do you just use virtual box for something like this? I split my time between two places, and game infrequently which means my SFF gaming PC is often still in the box until I need it, at which point Windows updates can…
Unless you go through the bother of paying cash every time, it's probably pretty safe to assume VISA is selling the same data. Most gas stations are owned by large chains, I assume they're doing it too. Some stores I…
I'll be frank, the MacBooks are overpriced, and do have some of their own issues, but they're actually still the best choice. At the very least based on my own experience you should avoid HP Elitebooks, and Microsoft…
Same, I was in university and kept showing up to class with my Dell Inspiron having killed it's own battery in my bag regardless how carefully I put it into sleep/hibernate. Or I'd find it nearly dead and burning hot,…
Sure but in this scenario it's a high earning google employee. I'm sure there's something they can cut back on. For anyone average or lower earning, a 2 hour commute would cost you at least 10% of your income anyways…
On the flip side, I wish EV makers would advertise range at higher speeds. Hell, I wish ICE car makers would advertise MPG at higher speeds. Every weekend I head up around 200 miles away, and it's on an empty mountain…
What about frequency of charging? I once commuted on a motorcycle with the range of my daily commute (about 120 miles). Despite how ubiquitous gas stations are, and how fast I could swipe by VISA and pump 2 gallons, it…
I'm excited for this, my wife is an accountant and often asks me to help her with VBA macros. Which means that for this reason alone I have to dedicate 40GB of my laptop's hard drive to a Windows partition with office,…
Not really, ever since phones got so big, they're hard to use one handed. Thickness just exacerbates the issue. When I accidentally broke my original iPhone SE, I switched to an X and ended up having to use it caseless…
I guess the weird part is as he mentioned the enthusiastic following. That makes them actually in a higher price class of their own for what you get. As a Toyota enthusiast, even I couldn't stomach the prices being…
The missing spare tire was really just a gimmick to game some EPA mileage metric. Many cars missing them still have the spot for them, and it can even be purchased from the dealership (marked up as usual). Thankfully…
Based on what I've heard and my own experience, raises are a pittance anyways. You have to change jobs. My manager did the opposite, praised me for being the top dev, gave me a 7% raise, said that's the max they could…
I don't actually have that much overlap with my friends in the first place. We just have a select few common interests and enjoy each other's company. I have a different circle of friends for most interests, there's not…
There's also material differences, there's a reason the Nissan CEO from that era is currently a fugitive and on trial for financial misconduct. And not by some technicality either, he literally hired a paramilitary…
Sadly, everything that wastefully consumes too much of my CPU cycles is usually some bloated graphical app. At my last job simply watching the logs in TravisCI via Google Chrome would slow my MacBook to a crawl. At my…
DynDNS is down.
DynDNS is down, I assume it's because of that?
And support for when it doesn't go to plan. An entrepreneur parent will empathize, as odds are they've experienced setbacks themselves. Most ideas and first attempts fail, I'd imagine people are more likely to try again…
