You explicitly asked about apartments tho

Near all apartments around me have exclusively open-air parking, so this isn’t a viable solution for many. It’s not that the available power is inadequate, it’s non-existent.

An enormous percentage, especially in the current housing market, however…

Many (most?) American cities have wildly inadequate public transit and are prone to sprawl. Many Americans live in apartments, but are a multiple mile walk from their grocery store. If there’s any public transit at all it’s probably an infrequent and unreliable bus line that may not go anywhere near their home to begin with. They live in apartments, but are not anywhere near ‘downtown’.

These are problems that need to be solved, and quickly, but public transit is best grown with a city, which didn’t happen. Inserting a subway after the fact is difficult, expensive, and slow.

The reality of right-now (which is all a renter is likely to be able to consider financially) is that a reliable car is an essential item in most parts of the country.

I’m cautiously optimistic, but prime is made by a completely different developer than dread so there’s no guarantees, unfortunately

I don’t expect MS will give you the choice. Not as far as the whole spying on you part is concerned, at least.

You’re welcome

I would kill for this. Trying to get logseq, or any other markdown editor to play nice with an existing obsidian vault is a nightmare. And none of them are nearly as feature complete or expandable.

Flameshot pretty much already does this, though perhaps not as elegantly

And it’s a hard sell to get a girl at a bar/club to come back to your mom’s house.

It’s good. The steam deck’s version of steamOS is arch based, so that should tell you a lot about its capabilities.

I’d recommend choosing an Arch-based distro like Endeavour or Garuda so you don’t have to go through the rigmarole of installing vanilla Arch.

As long as they are truthful they only report on the quality of the product and prevent many people of spending a lot of money from losing it by buying something that doesn’t work.

Well, yeah sure. The problem is whether or not that’s actually what’s happening in any given circumstance. Most reviewers I’ve seen are more than happy to include personal opinion, and some will exagerrate points for the sake of getting views.

Things get even more fraught when the reviewer is a bigger company than the company whose product is being reviewed. For example the debacle with Linus Tech Tips and Billet labs that they were dragged for. That’s the kind of coverage that absolutely can sink a company that seemingly only ever did exactly what they said they would.

Reviews are good if they present the important facts and generally act with integrity, but sometimes that’s a really big ‘if’.

Not always a choice we get to make, but I see your point

Just wait for Windows 10’s service life to run out. That’s when I’m switching full time

Computers are dumb and need to be told how to take the data of an image (stored as a long series of 1s and 0s in memory) and draw it on the screen so you can see it. The people writing the software to do that needed an image to test with, just to make sure everything was working right.

Either because they were a bunch of lonely geeks in the 70s or they didn’t have any other good photos to scan in, they used a headshot of a PlayBoy model. They couldn’t have known that it would effectively become one of the first digital memes, meaning it’s still semi-frequently used by graphics programmers (professionals and enthusiasts).

I can’t claim to speak on the model’s motives, but it’s not hard to imagine that having their headshot used in perpetuity without consent would make someone uncomfortable.

I went to college for a stem degree… IDK if it’s a scam, but I’m extremely far from happy with the value proposition. And my school was relatively affordable.

Of course, that’s not a problem with colleges but with policy, imo

Extremely volatile, as anyone expected. Since they started the IPO at $34 things aren’t going bad at all so far.

Give it a year, and we’ll see what the company’s actually worth.

Many parts of the Internet has become functionally unusable without one. And given online advertising’s history as a vector for malware, as blockers are just the sensible choice.

I could’ve sworn this was already a feature

Am I getting the Mandela effect?
