or they never got it in the first place. verizon loves to munch on sms here on the work phone.

i run several mass-market consumer model laptops with the lid closed. as long as the vents aren’t obstructed, not a problem here. mine are all lower-wattage soc with integrated gpu, though; the most demanding one that’s on 24/7 is still only ~ 15w cpu at 100% load, and it never runs at that; it rarely even throttles up from the 800mhz it idles at. i stand them on end so the vents are clear, and use some lego to enforce spacing between 'em.

grape jam or strawberry preserves here. switch to the other when a jar gets emptied so i don’t get tired of one.

irfanview,
paint.net (since 3.5)

programs i’ve used since they both began… for irfanview, that’s 30 years.

never been there, have ya?

that is one of the perks of living ‘up north’… no bugs outside in the winter.

we learned something called personal shorthand in school (1980s). it was a unit in a required class in high school. i wish they would’ve done it in junior high instead, though. no glyphs, just regular letters. i still use bits and pieces of it decades later.

a truly unpopular opinion. i take it you don’t hail from inland alaska or florida.

i have a neighbor that keeps her old answering machine because her late-husband’s voice is on it. she has no home videos or anything else… just a few snapshots and that answering machine.

such a monstrosity could only turn into the world’s largest public urinal.

nice try, nermal. i know it’s monday tomorrow.

i vaguely remember him. played outfield for the giants and astros, right?

“that’s ok. they were never an intended user base, they’re the targets.”
--some ceo, somewhere. probably.

so these crazy prices i hear about being implemented (like at github) should actually be at least 10x higher?

he’s stayed ‘busy’ since his sbtb days, just not in anything really all that noteworthy.

probably like the ones mentioned here rolling out in d.c.:

phone resolution is only 240x320. do it again at 1600x1200 (what my 19in trinitron from that era runs at), or even just 1024x768.

anyone who cares about their reputation and career will stay far away from the liar-in-chief and his ‘events’

not “motorola” (as in the mobile phone company that’s now part of lenovo, or the old cable box/modem company which is owned by arris), but rather a licensee of the name and trademarks for certain networking products… “premier logitech” (which has nothing to do with the computer peripherals company), which is owned by one of those buyout/“investment” firms “tide rock”.

i wouldn’t expect a thing out of them, especially support for gear designed, made or sold prior to tide rock’s ownership (acquired in 2024).
