  • I live overseas so I’m eligible for an absentee ballot.

    I filled it out and submitted it a few weeks ago.

    It was all done through the government website for my state and email.

    Couldn’t be easier.

  • (Not in US) just 20 minutes ago I had to drive in the bike lane.

    It’s not my fault though, the city also marked it as the turning lane.

    If I didn’t drive in the bike lane to make a turn, I would have been ticketed.

    Yes, there were traffic enforcers standing at that corner. (During rush hour, they are everywhere.)

  • I think you are 100% correct. Look at the iPad, it’s way overpowered for how limited iPadOS is.

    Making a new cpu each year is probably really expensive and they come with marginal differences.

    Apple can offer marginal iPhone processor increases and then take a few generations of marginal upgrades to release a new Mac processor with a bigger power jump.

  • I tried to go hard on privacy, but the more you know the more you realize how difficult it is.

    So, the best thing to do if figure out who you don’t want to see your info. If it’s the government then you are basically out of luck in my opinion.

    I stopped stressing about it when I decided to not let my need for privacy to interfere with my work.

    In my personal life, things are more private luckily.

  • Yeah, there is a way to get modern macOS running on it unofficially. I’m debating between that and just putting Linux on it.

  • Look at the 2016 MacBook Pro.

    They had a problem with the display cable and it can’t be easily replaced since it’s soldered to the display.

    You basically just need to get an entirely new display even though it’s just the cable.

    Additionally, some shops will resolder the cable, but it’s not a long term solution.

    Even replacing the display by Apple is not a long term solution because they replace it with another display that has a cable that’s slightly too short and will eventually break again.

    So the only real solution is to buy a new computer.

  • How does someone hallucinate alcohol?

    /s

  • Of course it’s a republican.

  • Well, AI models will improve and so will the hardware. Hopefully that means down the line, Ai will run on pretty conventional hardware and there will be an abundance of green energy.

  • This will also apply to things like Amazon, SHEIN, and Temu.

    edit TEMU not TRUMP

  • It kinda feels like this sometimes.

    My single biggest expense each month is tax.

    Last time I went to Costco, my the second most expensive thing on the receipt was tax.

  • The author wrote a billion books and spinoffs. He is one of the best selling authors because of those books.

    About a month or two ago, I tried to watch the tv show version of the haunted mask. The show did not age well, and the acting was pretty bad.

    I guess you don’t notice that stuff as much when you are a kid.

  • Who do you use instead?

  • Someone did a study on this and found that ceos typically count their working hours as anything that is related to work including commuting. Picking up dry cleaning, even lunches since you have them with clients or are allowed to eat at your desk.

    If we counted our hours the same way, then we would count things like preparing lunch and doing laundry.

  • What if I dress up like Putin?
