Laptops that businesses used are pretty good value for the quality. My SO gets Latitude 5590s from eBay that are in near pristine condition and are workhorses for everything he does. They work great with Linux too.

The order of the comment headers is the other way - above the comment it goes with. If you scroll to the top, you can see it better there. The Microsoft person is Zied Aouina
It’s unlikely but if she wants Japanese riichi mahjong and not solitaire style, Kemono Mahjong is a really solid app. No ads or micro transactions (the only in app purchase is to optionally support the dev for $1/month), full feature, minimal to no tracking (email address for online game purposes). It’s not open source or free but it’s only $3 one time purchase.
I don’t have any suggestions for solitaire/tile matching mahjong, unfortunately. Microsoft’s app is not malware but will be datamine galore. It also has ads unless you pay per month. Anything else, id be leery of the security of the app and your data.
“Late rising” being the horrible hour of 9am.
Seriously why can’t hotel breakfast go until 10 or 11. It’s not that good anyways, but God forbid people eat it at a reasonable hour. At least let the shelf stable items be used if there’s temp concerns.
Thanks The Onion for hitting it right where it hurts.
Nah I love that term haha I might steal it during my next online session
In games I play, we call it a “bio break” or just “bio” because it can also include getting more water or snacks, or stretching after sitting for a little bit
Turo for sharing cars. It’s car rentals but weird since you’re borrowing other people’s cars.
Kyte is in a similar vein for on demand cars via app, but it functions similar to a traditional car rental in every other way. Though they’re a baby company so they might not be a good Uber comparison yet.
My personal experience has been pretty good and the prices are very competitive, but we’ll see how they survive when the VC money runs out.
A group of friends and I jumped into a family plan and it’s far more manageable. For 6, it’s $3/month/person or $36/year/person if the owner pays yearly.
The value we’ve all gotten out of it is outstanding. Being able to push and pull certain websites in results is amazing in today’s era of AI generated website shit. And all of my technical searches have been 1000x better on Kagi than they have been on Google in recent years. Everyone in our group says the same thing, it’s that much better than what we’ve been enduring with Google.
Similarly, make sure if you use any conditioner that it is silicone free. Sulfates also exist in shampoo to strip built up silicones from the hair, so if you’re removing sulfates, you’ll miss removing the silicones. Silicones can be any compound that ends in -cone.
From an IT perspective with little context on this change other than what’s in the article, if there’s no way to import your own certs using an MDM, this change is terrible for businesses.
You need custom certs for all kinds of things. A company’s test servers often don’t use public CA certs because it’s expensive (or the devs are too lazy to set up Let’s Encrypt). So you import a central private CA cert to IT-managed devices so browsers and endpoints don’t have a fit.
For increased network security, private CAs are used for SSL decryption to determine what sites devices are going to and to check for malware embedded in pages. In order to conduct SSL decryption, you need your own private CA cert for decrypting and re-encrypting web content. While this is on the decline because of pinned certs being adopted by big websites, it’s still in use for any sites you can get away with. You basically kill any network-level security tools that are almost certainly enabled on the VPN/SASE used to access private test sites.
If it’s any consolation, this is the first issue of its kind in the multiple years we’ve been using CS. Still unacceptable, but historically the program has been stable and effective for us. Hopefully this reminds higher ups the importance of proper testing before releases
