The HP Spectre x360 line has had physical kill switches to the camera for some time now. I think since the 2018 version. Still waiting for the microphone switch though.
That's actually a scientifically recorded fact. German researches recorded the sleep patterns of 397 residents in areas where there was previously no mobile reception. After erecting 10 towers, many people complained…
>In fact, electric vehicles will only help if the electricity powering it was generated from renewable sources which is a significant fraction in certain countries but not most. That statement is false. If an EV is run…
Or just hire people from low cost of living areas. Depending on the location, they could just let you go. Imagine moving from Idaho to NYC. Drastic increase in cost. If an employer needs to compensate for that, I'm…
Not OP but I'll chime in. I have a range of devices myself and within in my social circle. I also live abroad from my family so good communication is key. My work phone is an iPhone, my personal an Android, and across…
Few options. Find an employer who is willing to hire you and go through H1B visa lottery, which is the normal work visa. Enroll in a US university, ideally a STEM degree, and use the OPT visa extension to get a foothold…
I dont mind if it does. There are plenty of people who prefer to work from home and are more productive in doing so. I'm certainly not one of them. Just like you, I prefer the mental divide. As for you coworkers, I…
This really depends on why you want to go to university. Is it just for the knowledge and nothing else? Save the money and self learn. Since you specifically mentioned developer, you can take a look here…
From my experience that is indeed a somewhat unusual situation. The companies I have worked for in the past and those where friends and family work tend give "raises" to match inflation and sometimes a bit on top. There…
I think this depends on how full the plane is. Moving a few people probably doesn't cause an issue if the rest of the plane is completely empty. If you move 20 people from the right side to the left side of the plane…
I'd take any kind of upgrade to be honest. Right now I'm in premium economy as for some reason the ticket was cheaper than economy.
The question is if the stewardess cares as much as the airline. Realstically speaking there is virtually no difference in service for them. Assuming that I get the usual economy food and I'm really the only person on…
I have hopes, but it likely depends on the airline. Had an empty flight with Singapore Airlines right after Christmas and they didn't. This is British Airways so we'll see.
Probably. As far as I can see from the airport website this is a regular flight leaving a few times a day. Right now it appears to fly once every other day.
I called the airline yesterday and they told me.
I will be flying from east US to Germany this weekend. (Planned move and visa is running out so no choice). So far I'm the only person on the transatlantic plane. Interestingly enough the local US-US flight seems to…
That'd be the BND as an FYI
Yup. Looks to be their email address. Email is from PR firm Sard Verbinnen & Co.
Because asynchronous communication takes a long time and often misses important emotional information transmitted via voice. I am not a slow writer, but for many things I prefer to have a phone call as I find it…
