I do not understand how in this day and age there are are people that just think 'I'll just dump this here on the street "

I have a 2 out, 4 in usb hub with a button to switch. I press a button and my mouse, keyboard, webcam are available on my other system. I can not use them simultaneously though.

We have one big orange neighbour boy who just uses our cat door and eats our cat food. We can him Brian, after the one brain cell.

IIRC Norris had a lot of trouble with Acque Minerali before

I've suggested password managers to loads of people who'd rather cling to updating their little pocketbooks where it's impossible to distinguish between certain characters and password versions. The stubbornness of tech illiterates is stunning.

I wonder if you can just sign in to your Nintendo account and play all your digital Switch games. I wouldn't mind buying a Switch 2, selling my current Switch and Lite, if I can still play MK8 Deluxe, MP10 and superstars, Zelda etc.

I'm not saying I agree with their policies, I just know about their own way they justify their data hunger

It's the privacy vs convenience problem. For most people, the convenience is so much more important so when you can just use Google to sign in everywhere, you get rid of your passwords remembering issue (oh my god how many people have blamed me for losing their passwords, I'm an IT guy).

Companies want to maximise profits by 'knowing' (ie tracking) their customers so they can tailor their products or services to actual usage. A noble goal? They just want to be more convenient for us.

In the end I guess having an account anywhere and the companies seeing anonimised or aggregated, no personally identifiable records, should not be an issue. But they don't need to keep track of where I live, what my e-mail adress or phone number is and especially need not now any third party stuff.

It has become a very untrustworthy business just because the companies could do whatever they wanted and now that there is more scrutiny, they just find back alley ways to screw us over.

Read up on Intel QSV. You essentially only need a recent cpu. i3 would do.

I accept your premise that parameters of technological advancement need not influence each other, but assuming that they correlate similarly as on Earth, prosthetics and interstellar travel might have moved forward by the same coefficient.

In that case, walking on the Moon is like using a rock for a prosthetic eye.

Well... Your logic seems on point but keep in mind this is a civilisation that does hyperspace travel and stuff

I hear good things about the Intel Arc A380. You basically only need it to convert video and the Intel is not too bad at that for not too steep a price

Doesn't do Piastri any good though. Hope he will follow in Lando's footsteps later this year and win a GP.

Check out Animal Control for more Joel McHale as a sarcastic asshole. No Danny Pudi though.

I have lived for over a week with less than 0 in my account in college and I've driven my car 150km with the gas light blinking in panic. Your argument is invalid.

Yeah he never sued, you're right.

The fact that Dune and Star Wars are similar stems from the 70s when Star Wars first came out and George Lucas settled when they were sued by Frank Herbert
