I have a Vizio TV that was advertised as a Chromecast TV, and I got it because of that. It was HDMI and Chromecast only. A few years later they did a silent update that added apps and generally made the UI much slower. I mainly use it with

Knots 3D is also on iOS. It's great and I have used to help teach knots to Scouts quite a few times.

I haven't used it in years, but when I was first using Linux I used Gentoo for a long time. Building Gentoo from scratch really helped me learn a lot and probably more quickly than dual-booting a system like I had been. I'll alway

I have firstnamelastname@gmail.com and it surprises me how many other people have my same name. I get so much unintended mail, usually to firstname.lastname at gmail. I have found that in a lot of cases they have forgotten a middle initial.

Another parent in my kid's Cub Scout pack told me about this a few years ago. It's been really cool to use on camping trips, and lately I've been using it while walking the dog. There's a lot more different types of bird

It think it's been changed, but I believe the Transformers wiki on Fandom started out as a copy of the superior [TFWiki]( https://tfwiki.net ). TFWiki has been referenced by many official creators and Hasbro designers themsel

Just like Toys 'R Us. Same playbook.

their previous April Fools joke ( https://www.netgate.com/blog/building-a-behemoth-router ) actually said "Happy April Fool's Day" at the end. This doesn't. It's a poor attempt at a joke if it is

I read almost all of the Lord of the Rings trilogy on a Windows Mobile phone in the 2000s. They were a great tool for the time, and I much preferred them to the Blackberrys that were more popular with many of my coworkers.

Tying into game streaming services would be nice. A low end PC can run Geforce Now or Gamepass more easily than some of these games.

There are Mac users like myself that don't have a trackpad or touchpad. After trying the Magic Mouse when I got my Mini I reverted back to my 20 year old Microsoft optical mouse. I long for the Windows style of app switching where you

Growing up in the 80s in the southern US we had earthquake drills and tornado drills. I feel lucky that those were the biggest threats I felt as a child.

Correct, but also with 1, there is a way to embed chapters into a mp3 file that's a part of the ID3 standard. We use Forecast ( https://overcast.fm/forecast ) to do it. I've found that most podcast applications eith

Compared to other Audiogram tools I've used, this is really easy. Processing time is a bit long, but I did test it with a 2 hour podcast. I have a couple feature suggestions that I think would be really helpful to podcast producers. Ou

That's funny, I worked for a school district about 10 years ago and our IT director was also the transportation director. He knew nothing about IT but I guess they had to give the role to someone at one point and it was him. I think I

I dropped my remote the first night I had my Apple TV 4K and shattered the glass on it. Good riddance.

As a fan of the University of Memphis basketball team, this is not the weekend I'd like this to happen. Though with how our weekend is going maybe it's a good thing...

Same. The ones that surprise me are the credit card information or cell phone plans. I was able to contact the phone company and tell them to remove my address, but the credit card was an exercise in frustration. You can't get through

the Windows ESXi client has been EOL for a while now and is not supported by current versions. It's all managed through the web or the esxcli commands now.

My wife got a job a couple states away and while I loved my job, I was moving with her. My responsibilities had been moving into more server-admin stuff for a while, so my boss was able to get approval to let me work remotely. It's bee

The search is horrible. I searched for my podcast by keyword and by name, as well as some other podcasts I listen to and none came up even related to any of the shows I was looking for.

Teams does something much better than SfB. It keeps IMs in sync between clients and devices. If I reply to an IM on my phone in SfB it stays on my phone. There's no way to get that conversation history onto my desktop client. Teams act

except this law would make DST the official time of Florida, not standard time (though only if Congress changes a law that allows states to do so). Other states like Arizona have exempted themselves from DST, which the federal government al
