    I haven’t seen the series so I wonder if it’s as much the “Office” knockoff that it’s made to be in this clip. Any thoughts from someone who has seen the show?
    I mean, the first sentence of this article describes Severance as a "psychological drama".

  • Transcend JetDrive Lite review: An easy way to add local storage to the MacBook Pro

    I kinda want to get one just to plug up one of the ports Apple was pressured to put in on my 16-inch M1 Max MBP, that I will never, ever use.
    If you're a photo or video professional, or even a hobbyist, you NEED the SD card slot. Yes Apple was pressured to put it back in the MacBook Pros, but only because removing it in the first place was incredibly stupid.

    At this point if you would never use it, you're an edge case MBP buyer.

  • Wi-Fi 7 speeds are almost as fast as Thunderbolt 3

    The problem there is you need an industrial-grade IP to even remotely take advantage, unless you’re talking about local networking.  I currently pay about 50 bucks a month for 300 mbs (FiOS).  The highest speed I’ve seen for consumers is 2Gbs.  You can get higher speeds with business plans, but they require special equipment and installation.  
    I currently have 10Gb ethernet stringing together two rooms in my apartment and then 1Gb to a third room. 40 Gb Wifi would render all of that instantly irrelevant.

    What's up with the backwards flag?
    It originated in the Army: “The American flag patch is to be worn, right or left shoulder, so that the star field faces forward, or to the flag’s own right. When worn in this manner, the flag is facing to the observer’s right, and gives the effect of the flag flying in the breeze as the wearer moves forward.”

    A lot of non-military entities have also adopted the practice.

  • Apple's MagSafe wallet review: finally solves the unified iPhone and wallet issue

    tapetape
    I tried the wallets out at a store last week and found they come loose with a comically small amount of applied pressure or shaking. I tried different wallets on the bare phone and with a couple of cases on, just to make sure it wasn't the specific wallet or case, and the things just fall off. I could not possibly trust one of these, in their current state, considering its ostensible task.
