During the game was a great time to go to ER in my area because the hospital was less busy. Less wait time.

3·1 year agoI know, it’s pathetic. AT&T holding a steady $40-45/mo while Comcast increases every year.
My area is stuck with the illusion of choice between Comcast cable and AT&T DSL.
That’s wonderful news for Bountiful. Quite a $48m middle finger to these monopolies.
Is his website in pure HTML? It’s got that 90s nostalgia.
The blog post talks about choosing a side, but the average user doesn’t have the know how or desire to move away from the default enshittifying web. The generation growing up with smartphones are fed targeted advertisements as a steady diet. To be fair, I see the kids just flipping through the obvious ads. But it’s harder to ignore when their favorite influencers are advertising stuff as part of a bit.
And for that reason I think we’re moving rapidly towards that dystopia we see in sci-fi movies and shows, like Wall-E.
That sounds about right, now that you’re jogging my memory. I have a 2007 a Sony laptop that I eventually wiped and installed Linux. Ran so much better than Windows.
In 2017 I bought a Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone, which ran circles around my laptop. Coupled with my laptop battery lasting about half an hour, I stopped using it.
I just googled how to rebuild laptop batteries. It never occurred to me it could be done.
Toggle VPN off, tied to my Work focus. One time I logged into work email while connected to a VPN. Freaked out my IT.
Back when smartphones had easily replaceable batteries, like the LG V10 I bought for my mom, I bought her a new battery after 3 years and it gave it new life.
Now, 10 years is on a different time frame. Personally, I would gauge the price of a replacement battery against how much I paid for the laptop. 10% maybe? Completely arbitrary. $20 replacement battery for a $200 used laptop.
I personally like Mullvad, their practices, and their straightforward price of 5€/month. They’re not going to try to lure you in with discounts by subscribing for multiple months or years. Now if Mullvad has gone downhill, someone chime in.
