So far the only issues I've had with USB C is that I had to buy a Nintendo USB C cable to charge my switch and a separate USB C cable wouldn't charge my Pixel. It did work with an external hard drive so I know the cable…
I wish more people thought like this. I worked for one of those poorer counties, and money was 100% the issue every department had every single year. The highway dept's budget shrank before it would even get approved by…
"Road maintenance is expensive..." You hit the nail on the head. I worked for a poor local government. The highway department was always the first on the chopping block, not because their issues weren't important, but…
Anytime I read posts like that, I just assume they have never been to a place that requires a car to get somewhere within a decent amount of time or it's been so long that they've forgotten. Yeah, I could get an e-bike,…
I had to prepare reports and such for the board to read before. I worked my ass off on them but never saw anyone actually reading them or even talking about them. So I printed off random "techy" stuff and some cat…
Not OP, but I have had the freezer trick work more times than not. It's a last case type of deal, but when there's nothing to lose try it. Just make sure the drive is sealed up nicely.
You ever try OpenRA? http://www.openra.net/ I've used it on Windows 7 and OS X and it's worked out pretty well. I haven't had much time to play it beyond a few quick matches though.
kiwifarms? not a message board though, but a forum.
Several of the Dr's and specialists in the US write down different procedures than what is done. I don't think it's malicious (at least to the patient), but I think it's mainly to avoid issues with insurance companies…
"I also wonder that's a paid feature that businesses can use?" I swear that I've heard about several different people paying Yelp to "remove" (or whatever term they called it) negative reviews on their site. This was a…
I spent a bit too long on playing with tc a while ago. The best I could get it was to limit each person's download speeds from the one internet connection we had. I'm with you on tc having the worst interface and…
"I had a Nexus phone on Fi that -- while I was holding it in my hand texting -- it went black and never turned on again, for no reason. I assumed the battery died -- even though the UI displayed that I had most of my…
"I'm also unable to see a list of my contacts filtered by who is online in the app, which I consider to be as basic as it gets." It still boggles my mind that someone thought this is a good thing to do. I read on a KB…
I've noticed this too. I used to waste their time when I could, but now I just have to let it go to voicemail. The best call I had was when they called at 9:30pm... saying I won a trip, and I just needed to give them my…
I got into the habit of using a separate password for each site I use, except for the throwaway sites. I have a method I use regardless if 2fa is an option or not. I have a fairly secure password that I have memorized.…
I hate it all, and would rather pay much more taxes if we had universal healthcare. That aside, I had a few different people give me the following reason why this is acceptable to them. "Why should we pay any of our…
My story is sort of similar too. Many years ago, I noticed my power bill was around $190 when it should have been closer to $120. I wasn't home for most of that month, and I know I turned off everything I could. I…
Seeing people glued to their phones while out somewhere social infuriates me to no end. If that's their thing, then so be it. At least they're usually quiet while doing it. But hearing them bitch about their shitty…
I have a 2012 Macbook Pro that I hope lasts forever. I upgraded everything in it I could though, CPU, RAM, screen, etc. The biggest and best change I made to it was replacing the main HD with a nice SSD. Now it can run…
I'm not who you're replaying to, but... When I was learning how to lucid dream, one of the triggers that I used to tell I was in a dream was flipping a light switch on and off. When I saw nothing happened, I knew it was…
"However, for use as an antidepressant, 100-200mg (0.1-0.2g) twice a month is sufficient, so it shouldn’t be an issue. " I will second that. A friend would use around that much and it would last almost 2 full weeks…
I used to work with some detectives who told me this exact thing. The "little tracking devices" helped them solve a lot more crimes than they ever dreamed of, but they said that it also requires a lot more paperwork,…
I used to work with the local Sheriff's Dept doing IT stuff. The detectives said they were amazed at how much data they could get from phones / cell providers. It's helped solve so many crimes like bomb threats, abuse…
phew, I was hoping MAP wasn't going to come back to haunt me after all these years, haha. If your application let students finish what they were doing without randomly crashing and losing everything, then it is leaps…
I've been out of the edu game for a while now. I want to say it was the Map Testing system. The school district was using a web based system (something lightning? I can't remember) previously, but the state was…
