A new PC will cost you far less in the long term.

I upgraded my Surface Pro 3’s to Kubuntu just this week. Should have done it ages ago. They run faster and cooler now.

Lucky women

The maga idiots loved her for policy, racism, and bigotry. She thought she was as untouchable as the impeached cheeto.

I’ve used Roxio NXT Creator 9 for years and it’s worked for me.

Let’s see if that ever gets paid.

The ones pictured are stainless steel, not sterling silver. Service for 8 is less than $300 on Amazon.

The amount of water you/me/anyone can process is completely different… No one should ever take medical advice from anyone but a physician that actually knows them personally, their activity level, medical history, and I wish it could go without saying; but, at this point, what resources are actually available to them.

While I agree it’s a disgusting habit… All my bad health news came after I quit! Granted, in 25 years of smoking I only went to a doctor like 2-3 times, but why aren’t I immortal now??? I was perfectly healthy when I couldn’t stop coughing, and could barely breathe!

All jokes aside, I’m amazed I’m in as good of health that I am. Started at 16, I’m 40 now and quit a little over 4.5 years ago.

I hate to say it, but the only thing that got me to quit was working for a company that went 100% non smoking 5 years ago… I left a few months later, but it had nothing to do with the ban on smoking, it was their ban on hiring/promoting/or transferring from one’s current position if they lived in a state with wage transparency 😎

That was a lovely rant on semantics. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

I think the internet as a whole is going to be the closest we’ll ever come. Capitalism will make sure it’s never even close to complete so it always has something to monetize.

I’ve never had a need for the headphone jack, so I didn’t care one way or another when they started dissappearing. But, I can definitely see how removing such a simple and cheap port from phones would be such an issue for a lot of people. No one should be forced into replacing accessories that work perfectly for no reason, just adds to all the damned e-waste already generated.

I have been slowly de-googling my life. I bought a domain, and have my email hosted on no-ip.com for like $15 a year now. Has been working great for the past 8 months. I have switched all my important login accounts to those accounts. I’m still keeping the spammy store logins and such on Google. The only thing worrying me about loosing with my Google account are all my app purchases going back back to the day it existed.

That looks like a pretty solid base before microsoft attempts to decommission millions of computers that have many years of useful life left. I wish I could say that’s great for me, but more of that hardware is going to end up in local landfills than resold.

That is the name of the website linked… I hate the word/phrase, but, it is what it is now.

Until they both lose money and users measurably from these changes, they will copy one another to chase every last cent.
