If only gears grew on trees…

I like how democratic it can be.

I dislike how democratic it can be.

There’s too much fragmentation. There also isn’t an “anchor store” that brings people in and increases activity in more niche areas.

All high rise office buildings should be incentivized to have residential space. Let’s try and fix the housing issues and reduce cars/traffic at the same time.

Shallots. It’s an onion-garlic but tastes better.

It’s possible they are both awful, but individually yes this report is rough to read.

Congratulations China! I’m hopeful the US can be collaborative competition!

Yikes.

You make a good point, which is why some art is considered really good only because it’s unique. A lot of art is decent but derivative.

You’re not wrong, legal software doesn’t require special hardware to run, but when your PDF editor with its document management system plugin no longer displays more than 2 pages when viewing them in outlook’s attachment preview and it’s seemingly related to dpi and the monitor, it’s helpful if you are using hardware that is used by many other law firms with a similar combination of hardware and software.

Anyone in legal IT, or even other lawyers, would laugh at you for using a gaming laptop.

You’d want a Lenovo think pad or dell. They are enterprise-grade, with enterprise support and enterprise software.

The legal industry is almost 100% Lenovo/dell/hp. All legal software runs on them, and the legal it industry collaborates on issues,testing.

Lenovo and dell can spec an enterprise laptop that would be just as good if not better than what’s on that desk.

This screams “buy me the most expensive laptop you can” but they were talking to their nephew who “knows computers”

What a clown show.

Lmao.

You can have extreme temps and low CoL. odd you put that together.

Anything that decodes webp images is vulnerable to an attack. Unless the vendor of the app says they patched it, assume they have not.

Browsers are obvious, but lots of other things decodes images. Your text messaging app, atm machines, vehicle infotainment, the ticket swipe at the airport. Anything designed to capture, process, or display anything is suspect, along with the underlying os of anything.

Oh neat mine are grey though.

I’m convinced Ok,Go is a music video band that made music to go with their videos.

Od rather pay you more and then pay your peers equally than pay everyone differently based on how long of a drive they have. It’s an odd subsidy that likely has unintended consequences.

I would raise pay before paying for commute.

No. I don’t know or care where they live. I will provide parking.

Did you sleep through the search engine wars? Not a single search engine was good. There were sites dedicated to sending your search to all of the search engines at once.

Google showed up and it was game over. Their ad sales took off, and then they came out with gmail with 1gb of free storage and everyone went nuts for it since trying to stay under 15mb for your local isp was a pain in the ass.

Google disrupted very hard and continued to do so in many ways for a long time.

I was in either a bad fancy hotel or an upscale motel last week. Valet parking only, $40/day.

My room had an excellent view of the parking lot which was outside and ground floor. It also wasn’t very full.

But since it was valet only, there were workers there 24x7. It was an odd money grab.
