I’m ok with YouTube. I pay for a large music service and get no YouTube ads.

Every other service has only made things worse. Netflix has done the least by not yet pushing ads.

If only gears grew on trees…

I liked being disappointed with a few episodes only to realize they are far better than most anything else out there.

Rewatched it recently and other than pagers and pay phones no longer existing it’s still great.

I like how democratic it can be.

There’s too much fragmentation. There also isn’t an “anchor store” that brings people in and increases activity in more niche areas.

Shallots. It’s an onion-garlic but tastes better.

They literally couldn’t pay the devs. Netflix for instance flat out refused to have blackberry pay for 2 full time devs to maintain an app.

Netflix looked at the market share and determined that there was 0 benefit. The people that were on blackberry devices already had a Netflix account.

Additionally Blackberry store apps were compelling for devs. Dev feedback included ease of development and more importantly they made a lot more money on the blackberry store than on iOS/android, both because the cut was better and they could jack the prices up because the customers were not nearly as frugal.

To get into mobile would require a massive overhaul of windows apps to get them mobile-friendly

Oh look, that’s exactly what they did and now we have PWAs for lots of apps. Maybe MS is getting ready to take a stab at mobile again.

Local admin of your interactive account is just. Ad though.

I get into story games a lot more now. If it’s hard, repetitive, or a grind it simply isn’t fun, I have reality for those types of challenges.

It’s possible they are both awful, but individually yes this report is rough to read.

Massive unemployment.

Libraries are not companies, they don’t need to make a profit. They are supported by taxes. The computers they have are old because they work perfectly fine.

They probably don’t pay for licensing, and the cost to maintain non-windows OS would be more due to having to hire people with that skill set.

Yikes.

You make a good point, which is why some art is considered really good only because it’s unique. A lot of art is decent but derivative.

You’re not wrong, legal software doesn’t require special hardware to run, but when your PDF editor with its document management system plugin no longer displays more than 2 pages when viewing them in outlook’s attachment preview and it’s seemingly related to dpi and the monitor, it’s helpful if you are using hardware that is used by many other law firms with a similar combination of hardware and software.

Anyone in legal IT, or even other lawyers, would laugh at you for using a gaming laptop.

You’d want a Lenovo think pad or dell. They are enterprise-grade, with enterprise support and enterprise software.

The legal industry is almost 100% Lenovo/dell/hp. All legal software runs on them, and the legal it industry collaborates on issues,testing.

Lenovo and dell can spec an enterprise laptop that would be just as good if not better than what’s on that desk.

This screams “buy me the most expensive laptop you can” but they were talking to their nephew who “knows computers”

What a clown show.

Federation. Your email address could either be local creds, or federated with google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, etc.

When you submit your email address, it determines how you will be authenticating when you submit it.

You can have extreme temps and low CoL. odd you put that together.

Anything that decodes webp images is vulnerable to an attack. Unless the vendor of the app says they patched it, assume they have not.

Browsers are obvious, but lots of other things decodes images. Your text messaging app, atm machines, vehicle infotainment, the ticket swipe at the airport. Anything designed to capture, process, or display anything is suspect, along with the underlying os of anything.

Oh neat mine are grey though.
