$60 for phone service is highway robbery. Unless you have specific needs that the big 3’s main brands plans give you, you should be on a discount carrier. For years now you have been able to regularly get a plan in the $28-32 range for 20GB data from Virgin/Fido/Koodo. The only downside has been they were LTE only for a long time, but 5G isn’t really a noticeable upgrade, and it looks like they have all upgraded to 5G for their plans since I last looked.
I’m currently on a plan from Koodo that is only $24/mo for 10GB data which is plenty.
These are the plans that seem to creep up in price over time until you switch providers when another good deal comes up.


3 Months is pretty bad. But I’ve found both Fido and Virgin are terrible for this. Every 6 months or so they sneak in a message about a price increase in your bill and raise your bill by a few dollars.


I’ve also been on Vivaldi since right around the start. I’d just wish they would fix their address bar suggestions to actually work. It isn’t great to start, and then decides to completely break every few months and do stuff like when I type “you” to go to youtube it insists on autofilling to a specific video I watched months ago. The only fix I’ve found is to nuke the profile and start over.
I’ve switched to Zen on my computer a couple months ago exclusively because of that issue.


I don’t understand this argument. Isn’t it better to build once and distribute binaries than to make everyone compile it themselves? The vast majority of AUR packages I use are -bin versions.


I think the comment makes sense, if more packages were supported on the main Arch repos there would be less of a need to use the AUR or Flatpaks.
There are definitely some big gaps on the Arch repos (web browsers in particular) that I would like to see improved.


Most of the clubs in my city have used this type of system for over 15 years. It’s billed as a way to keep known gang members and people who have assaulted others from the establishments that use the system.
Definitely has a different connotation of surveillance now than when I was out partying at places with it.


Its seriously embarrassing how bad our banks are at security. I’ve complained before and got the response “well you are covered if anything happens to your account”, they didn’t seem to understand when my response was “but I don’t want to have to deal with arguing to get my money back”
Stuff like this is exactly what I was worried about.
The other thing that banks so that really annoys me is they say “don’t share your password to anyone” and then only give the option of a 3rd party company that you provide your login to in order to link accounts between banks. What happens if one of those businesses gets hacked? Would they reject claims because you gave them your account details?


I disagree there, the market of people who record their outdoors activities was always limited and quickly got boring. Eventually, competitors caught up and many of them focused on products in better form factors for non-extreme sports that were better for a wider range of people. There is a reason why the likes of DJI and Insta360 are the goto products for those that don’t utilize larger cameras.


The further you get from the front lines the less you have a grasp on day to day operations, especially when the job changes. Double that for leaders that never held technical positions, and come from other areas that guide their view on things.
Then you have the power imbalance with a hierarchy, if someone is responsible for your job you are more likely to just say “yes” to bad ideas than push back on them. Even when a manager is receptive to feedback that doesn’t mean the ICs are going to give the feedback, or they get demoralized when their ideas aren’t taken for valid reasons.
Most websites allow you to change your email address, get one from somewhere else and slowly start changing them over until there are no more you can move. If you get your own domain you can ensure you are never trapped in any particular email provider ever again, though you will be playing about $50/year for a domain and email service. I have maybe a handful of things that still use Gmail.


No, assuming it isn’t someone that I otherwise have a personal relationship with, they owe me nothing. The significant other is the one that has broken the social contract of the relationship and shoulders the blame.


As an arch user this is a terrible suggestion. CachyOS is a distro for enthusiasts who are ok with dealing with the Arch way of doing things. This is a distro that no beginner should be using unless they are prepared to learn how to use the terminal and learn how Linux works. Anyone else is likely to be scared away because it is “too difficult”.
OP is right, just use Mint.


SolidWorks and Creo primarily, if I don’t want to boot into Windows I’ve been using OnShape recently.


To be fair, Bambu and their consumer hostile approach has been known for at least a year at this point when they locked out Orca Slicer from the cloud services originally.


“Just about”


When I bought my Bambu they were simply the best out there in just a bout every way. other company’s printers were unreliable and Prusa sat around on their laurels for years and even now have only partially caught up.


Unfortunately the open source options for CAD have to come a very long way before I could even consider using them. Onshape is the only “free” option I’ve found that is bearable to use compared to the likes of SolidWorks and Creo.


I said it in another response, it isn’t visits I’m talking about, it’s about who generates content on the website and what percentage of those users use old.reddit.
It isn’t copium either, we are speculating why Reddit keeps up the old version at all, after all this time they must have some analytics that it would significantly harm the site to disable it.
I call BS on that, unless that is how poor the work standard is at those companies. I’ve been finding more and more colleagues of mine will blindly generate documents with AI and the output is simply terrible. Like even if you use it to generate the information, at least go through and fix all the obvious errors and eliminate the fluff that the models love to add.
