I’ve been bitten by this. I’ve gotten a battery warning in the AM at the start of a day and had my mouse die in the early afternoon. It’s annoying that I can’t just charge it while working so I had to dig around for another mouse and use that while it charged. I hate that I have to check the charge on it and then forget after a while because it does last a long time. So it’ll die on me and I’ll get good about checking charge for a few days and then forget for a while and boom it happens again. If Apple sold this config I would definitely replace my current mouse with a better design.

I’ve never used IG but I feel like it would be a $3.99/month type of service. This price just tells us they are making way more than that serving ads or that your ad data alone is worth a decent bit of cash.

It was admittedly a low effort comment posted exclusively because it made me chuckle. Sometimes it’s the little things in life that make the day worth completing.

I don’t see any possible issues with salt solutions near metal components. I mean cars drive through salt all the time and it’s not like they rust. The whole in the floorboard of my car is obviously a feature that was time-delay delivered.

I keep the wine makers in my thoughts as tapping the grape vines is even harder. Those can be super thin from what I understand.

I posted that as a joke but being serious, I got my Wilderness First Responder cert last year and honestly believe that these are skills I should have learned in high school. It was only a three week course but it gave such great information and preparation that it should be standard in education. The 911 operator I engaged with relayed information to and from the EMS that was heading to the site and I don’t think anyone is really going to use YouTube or similar for this purpose. Chances are, if they need YouTube, they are probably panicking and if not, then the operator can relay basics. Good on you for doing a damn hard job I know I couldn’t pull off.

Sorry Gran, EMS is 20 minutes out. Hope you’ve been practicing holding your breath.

After??? Are you all planning on surviving the after wars? I’ll probably be taken out by a rusty nail after medical breaks down.

It’s nice to hear that they are digging into this. I am curious what they will find. I would be surprised if any company could dominate a market so thoroughly as Amazon did without some pretty shady tactics. I would also be happy to be proven wrong.

I started DuoLingo a couple of years ago and slowly started learning German just for fun. It’s like 5-15 minutes a day and I’ve gotten decent at the language without a whole lot of effort. It’s no Rosetta Stone but they keep it fun and interesting.

You can get a VCR from Goodwill for like $3. Live your dream champ.

I know from a friend that works for GCP that they are up his ass to get back into the office and have been for a while. Not sure on Azure but I think you’re right that it’s probably going to be small cap places.

Mid 40s and USA. I still drive a manual Jeep 4 door and it’s probably my last manual. The new 10 speed transmissions in some vehicles have gotten so smooth that I think I’ll switch to that or electric whenever possible get a new car in the future. I like manual but it feels like they are going the way of the dodo.

I’m thinking Go or Rust would be the logical next step. They probably won’t want an interpreted language so Python is out.

I’m assuming there is an implied /s here

One could say is was a crazy coincidence they happened to fly right into the missile that just happened to be passing through.

Euromaiden!?!??? Like a major defining moment in Ukrainian history!

I hope we can keep supporting Ukraine. This is one of the few times in history when the scenario is so clear cut good vs evil. The Ukrainians fought hard to get out from under the thumb of Russia and the Russians just couldn’t have that so they invaded. The support the world provides to Ukraine is support provided for all Democracies.

Chicken schnitzel. Can’t really mess it up and it’s always good.

While certainly better than nothing, that wouldn’t cover a month of child care for us so going back to the office is not an option for me. The good news is that my company doesn’t even have an office in my state but I did hear they want people near their locations to start going in a few days a week. I never thought my company would be one of “those” types of organizations but alas they all are.
