Can I use the headphone port in bluetooth mode?

I had the close other tabs using the controller message on OSX. I quite Chrome and restarted it, logged back in and it worked and flashed fine.

The hand-helds gave access to the web without a the burden of a large personal computer. Which could and can be a PITA to maintain. And were slow. The hand-held OSs are in some way…

Well it was hardly a manifesto!

There wasn't much in that rant. But it does stroke our nostalgia zones. You know something is not quite right, and can moan about it, without having a solution to the problem. Cons…

Don't forget the 'weak' will have likely been wiped out.

I like the idea of the nipple in the home row, but it always feels like too much work. Too much pressure etc. So I have resorted to the touchpad on the Thinkpad. But you could do p…

The injustice and unfairness. You have someone like Trump and other rich people than get away with murder, and Assange gets done for whistleblowing.

Remembering lectures, I used to sit in them, watch and take notes. It was only after when reading back through the notes and looking into the problem area I could hear and make out…

In the article there is mention of using ublock to block elements. I didn't even know this was a thing. I zapped the recommendations block on home as suggested in the article. How …

Never managed to get stuck in a Youtube rabbit hole, as my hardware has been so utterly useless.
