I like how democratic it can be.

I dislike 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.

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.

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.

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.

I’m convinced Ok,Go is a music video band that made music to go with their videos.

Od rather pay you more and then pay your peers equally than pay everyone differently based on how long of a drive they have. It’s an odd subsidy that likely has unintended consequences.

I would raise pay before paying for commute.

No. I don’t know or care where they live. I will provide parking.

The hate for Edge here is excessive.

I was in either a bad fancy hotel or an upscale motel last week. Valet parking only, $40/day.

My room had an excellent view of the parking lot which was outside and ground floor. It also wasn’t very full.

But since it was valet only, there were workers there 24x7. It was an odd money grab.

Get a shitty laptop or tablet and access this pic remotely.

For games use Steam’s streaming app.

I have both a gas and the cheapest induction range/oven combo I could find and the induction is way better.

People saying gas is better are just wrong.

Gas should be incentivized out of residential new construction, and probably banned from new multi family dwellings

There’s a really fucking bizarre Alice in wonderland that shouldn’t be missed.

Breville oven that goes for $300+ for only $15. Was brand new.

Edge.

Ms makes it very obvious that O365 is available when you turn on a new machine.
