We are a small web development company. I'd say that about 20% of our clients used this feature because gmail WAS their email client. They did't want to use a device-based mail client. I am happy we will no longer have to support

With streaming balkanized into so many individual providers, it's hard to pay for more than a couple. So the Grandson has learned to discriminate ads from content, and as soon as an ad comes one, we all chorus, "Stinky Ad!" a

No. Wouldn't try it for free. It's possible there would be a market for this in genres where there is a strong parasocial connection to the author that drives a desire to simulate interaction. For something factual or scientific&#

Grok is literally built to create nonconsensual porn, so this doesn't seem very surprising to have it sexualize translations. I plugged the tweet text into Google Translate and it looked just fine. Same with ChatGPT. YMMV

My daughter (29) is getting a filing cabinet and pastel folders. And a cute EDC kit with knife, pen, and screwdriver. My grandson (2) is getting books, little people, and a cheap drone that floats and is controlled by hand movements.

As an agency owner, we don't use these tools regularly but we have clients who do, and we support them. As far as the domains, they are a registrar like any other. You can transfer the domains away or to them like any other registrar.

Might want to add the year to the movie titles in the autocomplete. In today's puzzle, the title for both the 60s movie and the 2000s movie show up in the list and there's no way to differentiate them other than guessing. I guesse

I checked out the site, and if I hadn't known it was a coffee company, I would have thought it was a supplement company. As it was, I thought that this must be coffee with added supplements (which does not appeal to me). It wasn't

So they are surveilling people they know are on the drug, and they are seeing those people buy less food. Wow. The surveillance bothers me a lot more than the fact Walmart might experience a slight downturn in the bottom line. Here's a
