DAalseth said:.Personal computing at the time was, for most of us, getting our calculator to spell 5319009. (Extra points iif you get that) I’ll see your 5319009, and raise you 71077345.

To mpantone’s point… there’s also fully automated semi tractor-trailer rigs, hauling selected, very isolated routes in the western US… even as I write this.

The only issue I have with the article is the implication that if you’re gonna go lossless, you MUST invest in premium gear. Not to these ears. Even on a cheap car stereo, the difference is as noticeable to me as the difference is between, say, FM …

Man… the size/form factor is definitely a throwback to the late 60s, early 70s. My sister had just such a unit, but it also had a decent AM/FM receiver built in. As the younger pre-teen at the time, I was so jealous. MY record players were all cl…

scampercom said: Glad I don’t have to work there. I’m lucky that I’ve been WFH (tech job) for nearly two years now, and don’t have to return to the old fashioned ways. Offices (for tech work) are so yesterday. I too am in IT, and I worked …

Everyone seems to have forgotten about Synology’s router offerings. When my AirPort Extreme finally died, I rediscovered the older threads recommending it, and couldn’t be happier. To be clear, I have no current need to expand with their mesh unit…

Unfortunate headline - “blinds” (and even “shades”) is as much a verb as a noun. Capitalize for clarity?

That specification table… did anyone bother to proof the format/structure once it was published?

I’ve been in love with Apple’s leather cases since the original SE. I don’t have grip issues with them, but they slip in and out of my pocket with much greater ease than silicone cases. Plus I like how their patina ages with use, over time.

I don’t work for Apple, but I have an assigned laptop (working from home), and I signed an agreement not to use it for anything personal. That’s trivial to adhere to, and it protects everyone, myself included. Based on her own narrative, she strik…

If/when Apple adds emergency satellite texting… I am so in. I was getting ready to buy Garmin’s $350 version. That would be one less thing to keep track of on hikes.

I had to order a replacement driver’s license a couple of years ago, and along with the physical card in the mail, the state of ALABAMA (yes, Alabama) mailed me an electronic copy, complete with instructions on how to add it to my Wallet. It worked…

Just yesterday, my 365 suite (work) started throwing errors when I tried to open a Word doc. Turns out I needed to reboot to complete a Windows update, but the OS (AND Office) was too stupid to tell me that. A while back, my office shortcuts would…

This is the same messaging infrastructure Goldman Sachs uses for their Apple Card customers, right? (IMessages in grayscale rather than colored blue or red)

This is great if you were hiking backcountry, say the Appalachian Trail, for a extended period. No fiddly wires, just slap one on overnight and you’re good to go by morning. Of course you might need more than one, which begs the question… how woul…

ericesque said: to make way for the ill-fated Zune Marketplace and other similarly abysmal content delivery products. Whoa whoa whoa! Hold on a minute. Zune Marketplace was absolutely ill-fated. But “abysmal content delivery product” is a …

Having never gotten any up to now, I have some questions for current users. I presume these lumen ratings apply when every LED in the bulb is driven at 100% output? Thus any color variant will be some degree dimmer, depending on the hue you choose?…

I have a feeling the hammer will eventually fall at my company, and I too will be reluctant. . I’m holding out for two days a week at most, but… we’ll see.

Careful, Beats…it’s like saying Beetlejuice three times, though in this case, once is usually enough…no, I’m not talking about DED…
