Of course there is a much easier fix. A simple option to send all callers not in my contact list directly to voice mail. I don't need to talk to strangers. I've made this happen with a 'hack'. I have a blank ring tone that is my default, each contact list user has a real ring tone. I might get a half dozen spam calls a day, but I never notice.
I'm happy to, but first can you show me a android phone that I can buy with all the google integrations removed? I consider google a bigger threat than apple to my privacy and I do not want to use any service related to them.
Key word is cities. T-Mobile works great in town. When I drive out of town my work phone (ATT) and my wife's phone (verizon) both work just fine. My phone however has no signal. Basically it's a city dewller's service, and it turns out that 1% of the network they say they are missing compared to verizon is drastically important at least in my area.
Sure you can. Nothing wrong with that I did it for years. I personally find the experience awful. AppleTV has all the required apps I like, a unified TV dashboard, and CRC support for my TV to control volume, power, etc. $200 makes it worth it.
Google voice has terrible robocall support. I send my GV number straight to voicemail with their spam and robocall features turned on. I get 3-4 voicesmails a week from spammers.
I've taken to now just deleting GV and I am building a iOS app that blocks all callers not on your contact list (sends to voice mail). This is the only sane way to have a phone number in 2019. I don't want my phone to ever ring unless I know you.
Then those IDs need to be free and shouldn't require you to drive a long distance to get to them. In many parts of the country the local branches to get a ID or license have been closed.
"According to the Texas driver’s license handbook, the closest driver’s license office to Terlingua is in Alpine. According to Google Maps, that is 83.4 miles one way, or about 167 miles round trip. "
While this is a extreme situation, it still disenfranchises US citizens who have a right to vote. Driving is a privilege so I have no problem with a barrier to entry for a driver license, but voting is a right, there should be little to no barrier of entry beyond being a citizen. This is a difficult problem, but one even my home town is effected by. The last place in the south side of my town to get a ID was closed. Most people on that south side are too poor to drive and now have to travel to another town to get a state ID. Its a 30 minute car ride, or a 30 minute bus ride and a 15 minute walk. That doesn't seem like much, but the offices close around the time these people get off work and they are typically too poor to have nice things like PTO to waste on getting a ID.
I want to be clear that I have managed tens of thousands of linux servers in my life time. I've managed ubuntu, debian, redhat, cent, etc. I've also used linux on and off as a desktop for over at least 15 years. Its still not a good desktop for standard users. When a problem shows up, it's rarely fixable without a deep technical understanding.
Or you are me. You buy a modern XPS, the same one that dell sells with linux. Only you buy it with windows because it was cheaper (wtf why was it cheaper?). Then you download the latest ubuntu and put it on a usb stick. It fails to launch, so you google and find out you need to add kernel options in order for the install to work.
So you do that and now you can get it to launch, but it's so slow it's almost unusable. You struggle through that and finally get your install. Then you realize that even though you have 16GB of ram, for some reason it only made a 1gb swap partition and now you can't just close the notebook lid and come back to it later, because what you come back to is a kernel panic.
So now you start over and do a custom format to get the right sized swap partition. This time everything works but 3-4 times you get a kernel panic on resume and you don't know why. More research determines it's because your notebook has a nvidia/intel hybrid graphics and even though nvidia is disabled it's still loading a kernel mod that is causing this instability. So now you are in the terminal and you need to add kernel options that you worked for others until you find the one that works for you.
Now you finally have a working notebook and you think, "This is totally ready for my mom to use". I'll give her the ubuntu install media.
That's why snaps are being pushed. They don't break your system. They are self contained containers that just get replaced. Like docker upgrades for apps. I personally think it's a waste, but I get the appeal.
They do, it literally is built in to s3. Go to the console and you can see if a bucket is public or has public data. You can then use their compliance tools to go more in-depth. You can even outright ban public files/buckets. The problem is the idiots not amazon.
S3 is secure by default (no access is allowed). You have to take steps to make it insecure. The sad part is most admins/devs don't understand or want to understand the security implications and just open it up.
Exactly, that's why I replied to the post saying it was as easy as leaving the US and getting this done. It's not, it should be, but it is not. The moment it is I will be having this done.
I do. I like the simplicity of it. I do the minimal desktop install and I'm happy as a clam. I don't want to work on my notebook, I want to get work done on my notebook. Linux distro should be as simple as possible. I respect and enjoy other distros, but for a notebook I haven't found anything easier to just use.
My whole house has been LED for years. I've had zero issues and only had to replace 1 bulb. That issue wasn't that the LED failed, but the smart components failed and I coudn't use the app to control it. My house is fairly large for this area and the power company sends us averages every month. I'm always well under the power usage of houses in my area. I don't see any issues with quality of light as they now sell LED bulbs in different spectrums or even with adjustable spectrum. The cost is nominal you can get 24 60W equivalent bulbs now for $22.
This legislation was a good thing. It pushed manufactures to find a way to lower costs on LED bulbs and brought lower consumption of electrical use. Why change it?
Yep, that's why I only buy my whiskey from moonshiners. I'm not paying those taxes and who cares if the product might be total poison. Only suckers pay taxes on whiskey.
In addition FSRM should be setup to monitor all shares for known crypto extensions (there are api calls to get a list of all of them) and when a computer is detected creating one of those files it should be immediately banned from the network.
Yes and no, I can't unlock my phone in the car to change songs (something I could do without face ID). I can't unlock the phone without it being in the right position, with my eyes looking at it, etc. This means I can't unlock my phone in conversation to glance at a push notification. FaceID is a terrible product.
Maybe on windows. On OSX I've had it open for weeks and I'm only using 800mb of ram for firefox, about 2GB for web content, and another 600mb for extensions.

Seems like the money is always spent incorrectly.

I have gone from roku, to firetv, to apple tv. In terms of experience, I think the apple TV is the most impressive.

Right, and this article is about visual studio code.

I only accept plain text email. Anything else is discarded. I guess email will finally die and I can't wait.
I'd gladly pay double, it would still be a giant savings for me. I pay $200 every 2 weeks.

I'd remind you that the constitution has provisions to allow it to be revised. So perhaps we shouldn't look at it as immutable.
