…for you (sorry, old Internet forum reflexes activated)

You're underselling this poster. It goes hard AF. Racking my brain if there's another poster that unintentionally goes as hard as this one.

Yep, that tracks. There's also the underlying current of Jantelagen (Law of Jante) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Jante

This one seems different from the (correct) ruling in favor in hiQ Labs, where the courts were quite clear that scraping the public Internet was completely legal. This is a case of…

The failed startups are a vital part of the Aeron economy, putting these back-savers into circulation at 1/3 of MSRP

It does seem that way, doesn't it? Shame, it was the perfect form factor for family room, office front desk.

What is preventing them from launching a 27" version? I've been waiting to upgrade our 2017 model in the living room, was hoping the 27" was finally going to come now. Guess Mac Mi…

Honestly, it was a very close call. I had two shopping lists written down, one for Unifi, one for TP-link. It was a combination of a couple of factors. It was actually a really tou…

I was considering TP-Link at point of purchase, since there are some options there with more throughput. Like everything, it's a tradeoff calculation and this time I favored the co…

I can throw in my vote for Unifi. Stuck the UDM and the rest of the gear in a rackmounted enclosure in my daughter's wardrobe and haven't needed to think about it even once in 2+ y…

How GM thinks removing CarPlay and Android Auto is a strategically beneficial move, is mind boggling. I literally can't imagine how the reasoning happened, except for some really s…

Hah! Never thought of that. Nice one

There used to be an ABX plugin for Foobar, where you could test yourself if you could make out the difference between an MP3 of your choice and a lossless one. I think I scored wor…

Two use cases for scanning: 1. Forms that can't be filled out digitally Forms that can only be filled out by hand are annoyingly common. Surprising amount of PDFs to fill out that …

Maybe it's the combination of living in the US + having kids, but I'm finding myself printing a LOT. Not a week goes by without a couple of forms to print, fill out by hand and (pe…

> The only reason you may not want it is the space it takes. Having a separate scanner, I'm really liking the size of Brother's smallest models: 14 inch long, 14 inch wide, 7 inch …

I'm using a Mac and the default AirPrint drivers. Don't have any of the Brother software installed, even the scanner works perfectly through the native macOS settings.

People are tired of two things in general: lousy business practices around ink cartridges and the damn printer not cooperating. Two birds with one stone: buy a Brother b/w laser pr…

As others have commented, on your phone you rarely ever need to authenticate, so I keep mine at home. If you buy a Titan Key you get two (USB-A, USB-C), so sticking one of them in …
