Out of curiosity, is there a reason that this couldn't be an Android app? I would think that there should be some way to check a cable's functionality by plugging it into a phone and a computer.

I had video but no audio.

In my 40s I had to have a signed document from my wife giving me permission.

I'm in the Indianapolis area, and we do have public transit... though I don't know why.

I'm loving the juxtaposition of the headlines:

it's important to master blood magic and necromancy, so you can make use of the whole body

Isn't this the main tenant of Christianity?

You should make a general post about this to promote it. I just installed it, along with the blocklist Nikelui posted below and I've seen a huge difference in my search results. Thank you!

It needs another frame showing that feudalism never went away. Capitalism is just a way to walk us all back to feudalism.

Two different things can be different.

I'm talking about wolves, not immigrants. Are you saying that you're against removing an animal from the endangered species list because of immigration policy? Because, that's weird.

I saw a similar thread on Reddit about 12 years ago and one of the suggestions near the bottom that didn't have any comments on it is something I've incorporated into my daily life and it has made a huge difference: Adjust your car mirrors so you have no blind spots.

Most people have their side mirrors adjusted where they can see a portion of their own car in the mirror. This leaves you with large blind spots. To adjust them where you have no blind spots, sit in the driver's seat and lean your head over to the left as far as you can (basically putting your head on the window), then adjust the driver's side mirror to where you can just barely see your car in it. Then lean your head over to the passenger side about the same amount and adjust that mirror.

When adjusted properly if you can see a car in your rearview mirror, you shouldn't be able to see that car in your side mirrors, but as soon as a car is no longer visible in the rearview mirror it should be visible in one of your side mirrors. Then when it is no longer visible in your side mirror it should be in your peripheral vision.

It takes some getting used to, but once dialed in and you're used to it then it makes changing lanes a breeze. It also helps at night if someone behind you has bright lights because you'll only see them in one mirror instead of all 3.

Rejecting a policy just because 'the other side' is the one who implemented it supports it is bad policy. It's basically the way the republican party operates in Congress.

 

I find it hard to believe that, outside of work computers, many people would be choosing Windows over Mac or Linux, especially is AI is their goal.

I'm also curious why the comments are turned off for this article unless it is a paid ad for Microsoft.

 

I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I'm surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I'm prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I'm the only one.
