I’m shocked they are that much, but not really at the same time.

I’m going to get a flu shot before visiting the US. I’ll have to see if my current provider will cover a Covid vaccine in the US.

I agree, I looked into some AI stuff and it was really complex.

I’ve seen this story before and that complex stuff kind goes away and then it was a waste of time learning it.

I absolutely hate this stuff. My family doesn’t live in the same house, but it doesn’t mean we are not a family. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law just message us for the passwords when they want to stream something. None of us pay for youtube premium and it looks like I won’t be.

I don’t know and I’m not sure he’s ready to admit he was wrong, so I’m not bringing it up. Our political debates are typically heated, so I’m enjoying the peace.

But, he works in sales with manufacturers and I think he saw how the tariffs are going to mess things up.

Then the Epstein thing compounded that, I think.

I forget exactly, but he never believed anything negative about Trump was true. He just assumed the media was lying. In his mind Trump could do no wrong.

These companies entrenched themselves and showed that they are terrible to work with.

As someone starting a business, I’m just admiring all these companies like the plague.

My work is not in tech, but I used to work in tech and have been building everything with open source software.

Hosting as much as I can and even coding some things myself.

I wonder if these companies are going to end up dead over these in the future.

Still working

I think a lot of younger people voted for Trump thinking he would follow through on his promises.

It seems Ohio already is is expected to lose a seat in the next election.

Also his immigration policy has been hugely unpopular.

My dad was a big Trumper last time around. He would bring up Trump all the time. He has not said anything about him for the past few months.

So, I think the tides are changing.

Well, I’m going to visit family next month. My sister has had 3 kids since I’ve last been back and I’ve only ever met one when he was a baby.

So there’s that. Hopefully, my flight is relatively empty so I can be comfortable on the flight.

For most people it’s not an issue and I doubt that was the case here, but I guess he is thinking the board is a bunch of conservative or right wingers who don’t want to work with a gay person.

But I’m guessing it was more of a rapey thing to get fired.

That’s pretty cool, it sounds like the equivalent of a desktop environment in Linux.

Does switcher the launcher affect the performance in some way? I think I read somewhere that the default launcher is still running or something. But that didn’t really make sense to me.

From the androids I’ve used, cheap/old ones, on the main screen when you swipe all the way to the left, it always loads Google news.

Can that be disabled on your Samsung? I’m asking, not as a criticism, but genuinely. I really think dexmode is really cool. I think I could do all my work with just a Samsung and dex mode.

I recently got a soldering iron to repair a Logitech mouse because I was frustrated buying new ones so frequently when the switch stopped working.

The two cheaper models were really easy to desoldier the switches. But the expensive one seemed to have some kind of metal heatsink that made it really hard to melt the solder.

After some time, I got it though.

I’m a fan of repairing broken things. Too bad it’s basically impossible to get parts and repair most things anymore.

Its posts like these that make me uninterested in Android. It just seems like there is so much sketchy stuff under the hood.

I saw that video ages ago, it took a while for it to go into effect.

Do these updated vaccines have the hangover experience that the Moderna has?

I’ll be visiting my anti-vax family in the US next month and will sneak out to get the vaccine if possible.

Huh?

Android or Apple is objectively better? I don’t think anyone can make that claim as people have different needs and preferences.
