I have had good luck installing Gallium OS on a Chromebook for my daughter, so you might look at some of the Chromebook tablet/detachable keyboard options. Just make sure the model you get is supported.

Independence Day. That shot of the White House being obliterated was amazing at the time.

This feels like “the ultra wealthy have already squeezed all the money they can out of the poor and lower middle class, so now they are starting to cannibalize the merely wealthy.”

I know the wealthy don’t see this directly, but if it keeps the machinery of government running so they can continue to benefit and they can mine it out through subsidies and backroom graft.

I am not saying that these millionaires shouldn’t get targeted for not paying their taxes, but the IRS should start at the top and work their way down.

I agree with you, but most tech support (tier 1‚ anyway) is just following a set of prompts anyway, so it’s barely better. At least with the recording I can abuse it without feeling bad.

I had a problem with Verizon service, and the troubleshooting app (not audio prompts, just answering questions in the app) actually solved it in about 5 minutes, and introverted me didn’t have to do a phone call or chat. So the experience can be good, sometimes.

I remember back in the 90’s seeing news stories about the Taco Bell Doritos War in Iraq.

That is one of those right angle bolts for getting into tight places. Hang onto it because they cost about $15 each new. It is specially made to transfer the torque from the head around the 90 degree bend. Just line it up with the nut, slap a driver on there and go to town. I promise, it will be amazing and nothing bad will happen.

I used to live in Houston, and I always tell people it is a strip mall the size of Rhode Island.

You always end up in one cage or another. But when it’s your home, you don’t see the bars.

Serious question: what do you not like about snaps? I find the isolation and dependency desolation to be pretty great.

I know what you meant, but now I am imagining a giant yellow dildo in each space to stop the car.

I use these:

TECNO B1 Bluetooth Headphones https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X2JSMHZ

And they will reliably pair to two devices, including some combination of my laptop, phone, and TV. My only complaint is that sometimes when they are paired to my PC, they won’t turn off until I unpair them.

They are pretty awkward with the neck weights, but the battery life is fantastic. They appear to have the same software in them as my older ones that were sold under the brand TaoTronics, which was banned from Amazon for something.

If you find something, please post back, I’d love to find a less awkward pair of headphones that does this.
