    They're saying if there's a school bus inside of a narrow corridor, that a prudent driver would slow down and use caution IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. They're obviously not arguing that th…

    I'll be ecstatic if my iron filter lasts 40 years. I saw in another post that a person said there's a difference between "device dependent" and "device augmented" that really reson…

    Oh sweet. Delicious. Very reassuring. Was really hoping this thing was going to be device agnostic. My 2015 car had 3g "smart" features that no longer work since 3g has been sunset…

    I have a iron filter that works via app. All configs can be done with button presses on the valve but in a much more tedious process/workflow. It connects via bluetooth and not WiF…

    Hot take. I for one, am, and will always be, forever grateful for government cheese.

    Hard disagree. You can't win. > (but you will lose a lot of stopping power) Source? Look up demos on ABS anywhere on the web. You'd be hard pressed to find a professional driver de…

    It might be an expectation of a corporation to attempt to stay in business. I will concede that. It's harder to say that I can't blame them for doing so in underhanded ways. Expect…

    Of course I do. The fight should be fought within a reasonable expectation that it isn't impeding the progress of mankind. These aren't living entities that I should feel sympathy …

    I have a 2022 LGTV that asks for spooky permissions. One permission is is ad telemetry. I had it connected through a PiHole for ad blocking my network and noticed it contacting an …

    The massage on the surface: "We want to make sure these signatures are real. We want to protect these democratic processes." The message: "We know who you are. We know where you wo…

    Not to mention that... If Thomas Edison didn't invite the light bulb, we'd all go to bed at sundown! (sarcasm, obviously)

    Same. I actually have 2! They're cheaper than computers and easier to manage. I also happen to have 2 kids. Maybe that's a coincidence, but it probably isn't!

    I still have an old WiiU in my entertainment center exactly because of the robust homebrew community behind it. It has no doubt saved many WiiU consoles from going into the bin. We…

    It seems like this isn't new? It happened in the US, on Jan 1, 2023. My car, a 2015 Hyundai, has been without app support since the beginning of 2023. Some vehicles effected were o…

    I have a push-button car made by Hyundai and one made by Nissan. Both can be turned on with the fob inside the vehicle. You can then leave the key behind and drive away. The dashbo…

    Oh, I have no plans of not drinking RO water because of this article. It was just interesting to me. Whole Foods water is very likely RO water too. Both my water and a grocery stor…

    That's what I was thinking. This makes me think my system is less safe than I thought. BUMMER!! This poster's cost drop on the $2/5Gal made me go down the cost analysis train on my…

    I was also curious about this. Maybe the keyless entry computer stays awake to try to sync with a fob and then sleeps on success? If a user chooses not to use a fob at all, maybe i…

    I use two P2715Q's as my daily drivers for the past 6 years. They're good. They suffer from some image persistence but it's been forgivable. Some coworkers have got the same displa…

    I feel like pointing out cause and effect isn't a threat unless you're trying to play victim to it. * "If you run around the pool, you may slip and fall." * "If you charge me for t…
