Imagine the single bar in that town, the night after 3 people voted Democrat and 3 voted Republican.

And it also was never all or nothing. I keep my goal at 6000 just because 10k (i didn’t know about 8700) isn’t realistic for me. It’s still better than what I would walk normally.

Is there an ebook service like GOG is for games? DRM free so you can keep the books regardless of what happens to the service?

(I know it’s easy enough to remove it, but I’d rather support a service like that if I can)

I’m always concerned about google maps because the alternatives suck, but google is making their services awful, one by one. I’m waiting for the day that google maps becomes terrible too. I do have openstreetmaps (using organic maps on android) and I fixed a few things about my local area there but it doesn’t have some of the features I’d like and it doesn’t seem like they have plans to add them.

Just as an example, business reviews. I can use yelp but it is nice that it’s right there. Also, the user submitted things like speed traps, accidents, etc.

Yep, one shape is paid for, the other shape is not (I forget, circles or squares), and to actually see the non paying businesses you have to zoom way in now.

They say it doesn’t affect search

Right, HR is there to protect the company. Your manager is (almost always) not the company. So if the manager is doing something fucky, that’s what HR is for.

At this point, probably not. But, at one time, I did leave Firefox for Chrome when it was new.

I use bitwarden over Firefox because it can auto fill into apps. So, my bank apps or whatever else. And I’m not tied to Firefox if, for some reason, I want to stop using it.

It’s similar to why I don’t use Samsung pass on my phone. It’d work better filling in the fields, but that’s not going to help me on my PC, and I don’t want to maintain multiple managers.

And the credit rating one I can certainly get behind but some of it sounds like BS

It is. There’s no change to your credit rating or report over whether or not you paid interest. It’s not even a reported statistic. At best, you could argue that if they see the credit utilization is low and your payments are always on time that you probably don’t pay a lot of interest, but that is a typical indication of good credit.

It’s more likely that they had one credit card and not that long of a credit history with it.

Side tangent, but I wish people would recognize that more. You didn’t disprove something by providing ANOTHER fact.

How is it not related?

To be fair, that’s a wild way to lift a laptop.

Being able to swap a battery to keep a phone working well for a few more years makes sense.

Android “swipe” keyboards in general are almost all terrible right now. We had it, I would get the correct word most of the time and I could do it fast. Now, no matter which one I try using - Google, Samsung, Microsoft, that FOSS one - nearly every sentence i type has some word that it gets wrong.

Is the statement they’re quoting incorrect?

So…

Windows 10: the “last” windows version

Release Windows 11, requires specific hardware that you can’t realistically add to your existing PC. But Windows 10 will keep being updated

Windows 10 is not getting anymore updates

Love it, no notes.

If you care enough too you should submit it as a bug (if you haven’t). It’s for sure not a dead project.

It was updated last week.

I’m a follower, I don’t post, reply, like, or anything. I just want to see what the people I follow have to say, and they haven’t moved anywhere else.

Thank you for your input.
