I lived in Portland for years - and it's the same. Even if you did get someone on the phone, I doubt anything would happen. There's tons of cars without plates, mufflers, windshields, etc. driving around that the police don't

I think the rafts you're looking at are just gear rigs, on long multi-day trips usually there is only one person with a set of oars. The boats have frames and lots of cargo space for food, clothes, toilets, tents, kitchen, etc. Dependi

If you add all your bulbs to Homekit you can control them all from there. I have all my Hue bulbs in Homekit and haven't touched the Hue app for years, it's also accessible from the iOS Control Center.

Or the issue with the ozone hole in the 1980s... that was not solved by people stopping personal use of CFCs, or boycotting products that used CFCs. A multinational agreement known as the Montreal Protocol is what stopped the use and produc

FaceID works totally fine with your sunglasses on and in bright light... It does fail if you have a mask on, if you have goggles covering half your face, or if you have a helmet that covers your face... but to me that is all completely und

I think what gdubs was trying to get across is that sure, there are problems, people to blame, etc. but now is not the time. We have to get our act together and handle the situation. We can't have petty fighting betweeen parties. Now i

We're already most of the way there with self checkout. My local Home Depot only has self checkout now, with 1 person managing something like 10-15 registers. They left the person running the "Pro"/lumber checkout area,

And they didn't just do that with AWS. They did it with ecommerce as well. Become the biggest online retailer, nail the implementation, then get everyone else to jump on your platform.

I think it's also due to recycling being easier to integrate into our lifestyles than reducing or reusing. We have enough wealth to just buy another, and throw the excess in the recycling bin where someone else deals with the problem.

Sure you can access this.$parent, and use a v-if on an element with a v-for, but if you read the docs, they tell you that you probably shouldn't be doing either of these things [1][2]. [1] - https://vuejs.org/v2/gu

The real feature I would want from an IoT candle is to be able to turn it off if I leave the house or go to sleep. You have to phyiscally put a lid on this candle to turn it off?

I primarily use my card for purchases at retail locations, but a few times I've forgotten my wallet, and Apple Pay on my phone has saved me.

I always assume that once I categorize a recurring bill as something, it will always be categorized that way. If feels like it takes recategorizing it many times before the category sticks. Which is really annoying.

I'm definitely not good at finance, but could this just be Casper making it look like they're losing money to dodge taxes or something?

I'm in Oregon and our deposit is 10¢ as well, we also have the big bins/carts. The homeless around here will pull everything out of our recycling bin a lot of the time to find cans. Most of the time they'll put it all back, b

I'd say it's more about how thieves have started to use bluetooth scanners to determine if something very valuable is in your car. If they can tell a macbook is in your car, but your glovebox, center console or trunk are locked, t
