Assuming you’re talking about a laptop…

Pro. 100% It has a fan to keep cool during your work sessions, and with that much going on you’ll need that fan.

I assume also that you need to be portable for some reason. If not check out the new Mac mini.

Vans don’t have trunks asshole!

(A paraphrasing of “Castles don’t have phones asshole!” from The Rocky Horror Picture Show …)

Trunk-or-Treating!

Nothing beats a Pizza Hut Pan Pizza, so they get my vote!

I wholeheartedly agree!

I guess they just don’t have any other curated content to fill that space… /s

I’m not a fan either, but according to Apple their main News posts are “curated” by staffers.

Therefore it’s not an algorithm that can filter out certain topics and sites per your preferences. If they decide a post is newsworthy in the main area, and it just happens to be from a blocked site, you see that.

Which of the three are you referring to!?

“There’s that word again, ‘heavy.’ Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth’s gravitational pull?”

Was at the San Francisco Public Library with da hubs, checking out DVDs/CDs, and on our way out saw a flyer for IIRC “Celluloid San Francisco” a presentation by the author of a new book about movies made here.

We figured “Why Not?” Walked in and was entertained for about an hour by a very personable speaker and tons of SF film facts!

Then they unexpectedly ushered the lot of us across the hall to a catered buffet lunch, meet and greet, and book signing (none of which was mentioned on the flyer).

We also went in slightly less higher than god…

So we proceeded to stuff our faces from a delicious buffet, chat up the author and thank him for an amazing presentation, and then left around 2:30 not having paid a penny for anything.

I keep mine sorted by type in stacks. So mine does what you’re describing by design.

What you’re describing sounds like a bug.

I read that last election he started campaigning the day after he lost. He’ll do the same thing this time just to keep the grift going.

Plus he’s had how many delays handed to him because he’s a political candidate? He’ll probably pass away as a political candidate just to keep those two things in his grasp.

Drugs: Never mentioned. There were anti-drug ads on TV 24/7.

Sex: Never mentioned. Well, by the time they got around to having “the talk” we asked them if they needed to know anything. Mom laughed, dad looked embarrassed, and that was that.

Etiquette expects that when you do a nice thing for someone you gain nothing more than a “Thank you” in return.

You can’t do “Pay-it-forward” as that places a burden on the recipient and your ‘gift given freely’ then becomes a task to them. Which is no gift at all!

If your parents are struggling to make ends meet at 77 then continue pressing the point and let them know why.

If they’re not let to go.

You’re good with tech and know they can save some money. If they don’t care about tech, and aren’t hurting for money, you’re just being annoying.

Had the same convo with my mom. That’s where the annoying line came from! She likes what she has and can afford it.

Now my sister ima boot in the head because she cancelled my mom’s landline for a cheaper cell plan. So now, oh…about 80% of the time I try to call mom her phone rings right into voicemail because she forgot to plug it in!

I’ve an M1 Mac Studio with Bluetooth mouse, keyboard, AirPod and AirPod Pro, switching between APods whilst gaming, and they all work flawlessly.

It sounds like the keyboard or mouse is the issue. Since when they’re disconnected the problem is resolved.

Next time it happens try removing one of them, test the audio, and if the problem is resolved that’s the device messing up Bluetooth.

Your answer was concise and succinct, for such a complicated topic. Thank you!

“Respect for the aged” day in Japan.

Wow did you miss the mark. Better luck next time!

“The Skin of Our Teeth” YouTube is a stage play by Thornton Wilder. It highlights humanity’s long and storied history of careening from one disaster to the next. Each time, surviving by…the titular title!

We’ll wait until the last minute, then we’ll literally redefine Heaven and Earth, as we move them, to save ourselves.

We always have, we always will.

So you can wait for that to happen, or you can start right now by getting involved in politics. Be the voice you want to hear, encourage people to vote for candidates that will support legislation to do something about it.

That’s literally the very old saying, “You can be part of the problem, or you can be part of the solution.”

The perfect Summer sammy, and one that’s surprisingly contested as actual food:

Summer Tomato Sandwiches

1. Lightly toast white bread. I like buttermilk-based ones.
2. Add mayo, not miracle whip, MAYO(!) to taste.
3. Add sliced tomatoes.
4. Enjoy!

We had these growing up on really hot Summer days, the kind of day when it’s too hot to cook.
