Someone there wants to go back to 20+ years ago when your friends mom's Internet Explorer windows included 75 different toolbars and there was only a little bit of browser space left. The hayday of "Buddy Bar" is returning for your Edge, Outlook, and Taskbar. Next will be explorer and Excel. The future is looking bright.

If only they'd cut the shit with iMessage

The balloons are a nice touch

There is absolutely no reason to be such a giant jerk in this thread.

Virtual card numbers usually work well. I always made sure to use them with stuff like SiriusXM and other clowns that make cancellations difficult. You can leave them active or cancel them arbitrarily. Some card companies let you set them up via their app or website.

A few thoughts come to mind... 1) Some of their customers may only be customers because of HA compatibility. 2) HA does not require a cloud API to function - a LAN based solution is usually preferred anyway. 3) There are far more diplomatic ways to approach this issue.

I just installed a ratgdo as well because of this. It's great but shouldn't have been necessary for the reasons you state.

And I thought Chamberlain was bad for intentionally breaking MyQ integrations. This is downright absurd. I guess Haier can lose some more potential business.

I noticed that YouTube recently started popping up the control overlay when starting a video on my streaming box. This dims the video and obscures much of the screen. At first I thought it was because I was clicking an extra time or something but I realized the other day that it's because it's highlighting a big "SHOP" button in the toolbar. It takes several seconds to disappear. Dear YouTube, I'm not going to buy shit using my remote control.

RIP TacoButtPlug, we hardly knew ye

I'm so glad I'm not alone in this opinion. It's absurd.

If you can't move a basic toilet without breaking it then maybe you shouldn't be in a trade that requires the use of your hands. They're not fragile.

I'm sure that's a factor in exploration but the engine doesn't prevent them from adding a more interesting story, lore, and decent voice acting.

You might be able to fix this by disabling "modern standby". That was the key on my Dell laptop from work having the same issue and threatening to melt my backpack every night.

I worked in retail as a college summer job and someone let their cart loose and it cracked a light on my car. The security tapes confirmed it. I was parked way off to the side with the other employees and the cart gained some momentum on its way.

Another similar test is when someone changes their mind on buying something if they return it to its original spot or just dump it on a random shelf. This is another thing that I really hated dealing with in retail.

No it limits the total amount, but it is reasonable that they added a dedicated power input. I'm guessing we'll see even more of that on ATX12VO motherboards or similar. Seems like power standards are changing a lot and manufacturers are waiting for things to settle down.

They laid off quality control.

After all that you get to tinker around with their shit VPN client that only works during one phase of the moon.

I managed to fiddle around with my work Dell laptop and disable that nonsense. I think it was called "modern standby". I don't understand why this isn't considered a fire hazard. It was terrifying to leave my laptop in my backpack until I figured out the fix.

A couple of X670E boards have 4 onboard plus front panel header. That gets to 5, but only 2 can do USB 4.
