Maybe just get a large monitor? Its probably cheaper too

Yeah it’s like saying if you support free software, you support companies to not pay taxes or companies putting nicotine in products.

I have a pixel 6 pro, but I wouldn’t recommend it. You’d think Google is capable of providing a perfect Android experience, but my old Note 9 was way less buggy.

I’ve had lots of issues with 3rd party launchers (nova), I can’t even use the USBC with a dongle and second screen (my old Note could do this without issues). Also this is my first phone without headphone jack and SD slot, both I really miss. Just in general the software (especially in the beginning) felt really buggy with small glitches etc.

I don’t think I’ll ever go pixel again.

I once worked with a guy that said he prefers candidates that went to college and got a degree, because it shows endurance and a basic level of competence.

No but I am looking for a new laptop and this time I’ll definitely spent more time checking Linux compatibility.

My previous thinkpad worked fine out of the box, but my current laptop is an HP Omen, that I mostly selected for the price to performance ratio. But I immediately learned that Linux compatibility sucked. Like not being able to boot an Ubuntu usb drive (without messing with the boot parameters).

Do you not allow your cats outside because of birds?

This clip came to mind immediately while reading the note.

Exactly he’s not a full pilot but he’ll probably know a lot more than me about flying. I would just let the autopilot fly and land.

One thing I like is that it runs on Linux, so outlook isn’t an option for me anyway.

I tried other mail clients but most of them don’t work with exchange servers (and 2FA)

I pay for a plugin so I can use Thunderbird with the exchange server (and 2FA) my office has. Best purchase in a long time, I think it’s like a dollar a month or something, pretty cheap.

Wait next thing you tell me is that I can’t complain about having too many people on bicycles on the bicycle roads?

Not sure about how good or bad it is in the US, but in the Netherlands (a place that is known for good infrastructure) it’s definitely not perfect.

I never realised until we got a baby and I started walking with a stroler. Way too often the sidewalk is inaccessible because of cars or bicycles. Also lots of places without ramps or elevators.

I have an nvidia card and don’t game, that Intel might be the better option.

So that was the peak!

“If buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing”

Too be honest I was fine with seeing an ad every few videos. But at some point it became unskippable ads before , during and after a video.

Also I’d rather wait without ads than wait with ads, like what’s the point?

I once had a phone with a replaceable battery, headphone jack, IR blaster (so it was also my TV remote) and SD slot.

I feel after this we gained waterproof phones.

(although I only once dropped my phone in water and it was before waterproof phones and it still worked 48 hours later, so I don’t care that much for waterproof phones).

Anyway I feel we just got downhill after this phone, my current pixel has no: headphone jack, IR blaster, SD slot, replaceable battery, etc.

I wonder what would happen when a major smartphone maker would make a phone with all those features again.

Is that even enough for a single LED to turn on?

There are more Android users than Apple users worldwide. Lots of them are not very tech savvy, but they don’t get tricked into installing random apps. You can’t even do that unless you go into settings and enable third-party app installs. I don’t think it’s really a big problem like you think it is
