The 2015 keeps going! I was considering upgrading to an M3 up until about a month ago when Apple replaced my battery, keyboard, top case, and trackpad completely for free. An upgrade would be nice as it no longer supports the latest MacOS,

You got me curious as to which states require ID to pick up prescription narcotics as I've never heard of this living in Illinois and Colorado. Turns out each state has its own set of unique and sometimes bizarre rules: https:/&#

Where in Boulder are you finding needles? I'm yet to see one after ~4 years here, but I've mostly stuck around CU campus and Pearl and the surrounding areas. Plenty of discarded vapes everywhere, though.

Yup, got burned by this. I had a POCO X3 (4G LTE but no VoLTE) which I'd still be using today had AT&T not labeled it as a 3G phone. Even just attempting to use it with my SIM card now automatically deactivates my plan. Now they ha

I also had this issue. You can easily solve the problem by disabling the Windows update service in Services.msc.

>USB-based jailbreaks What kind of new-fangled hack is that? Here in Switch-land we just use a bit of tinfoil for our piracy needs.

I've only witnessed it twice personally. One being a restaurant job I briefly worked and the other being a small shady interior design firm my buddy works for. I'm yet to hear of a larger corporation doing it though.

Chiming in to say that if you're using this to buy a Pi from AdaFruit make sure to register an account with two-factor auth before you get the chance to buy. They require this to deter scalpers, and they'll run out of stock before

Outside of being great for cross-platform messaging, it's awesome for transferring files. Quick, no restrictions on file extensions, and I've yet to hit a size limit. Great for building an APK and shooting it off to my friends + o

I'd just like to chip in with my (opposite) experience: I semi-recently developed an app using Flutter and used an iPhone 6, a 6s, and my old Redmi Note 5 as a baseline for performance testing. While I'll admit I wasn't doing

If it's just a matter of tuning the computer (most likely), all the owner needs to do before inspection is plug the tuner back into the ODB-II port and reset the computer to factory settings. Super easy.

Google must be pretty lax then. I bought a Google Play license in 2013, and proceeded to upload a handful of shitty apps that have all been auto-removed at this point. My dev account still works just fine, so ymmv.

I have the Ergodox EZ, so similar to the Moonlander. It took me about a full workweek to use it without looking at the keyboard, and another week to type at a competent speed. That said, after three years of ownership, I still can't ty

I experienced this too. Thank god for having a noisy HDD or I never would have noticed. I fixed it by replacing the software_reporter_tool.exe with a blank file named "software_reporter_tool.exe" and setting it to read-only.
