I’m not one hundred percent sure, but the email I got from Epic says they’re refunding the legendary upgrade and that Redstone shards are only good until November 1st. I don’t actually play the game, but I got the email because I got the legendary upgrade when it was a freebie.

There’s also an upgrade that isn’t free that’s being removed. Granted the upgrade was one of their freebie offers relatively recent.

I had a folding phone (Fold4). Once a video was playing the fold wasn’t as noticeable as long as you looked at it straight on. From an angle, the fold was annoying.

The worst part about the phone was that it was uncomfortable to hold when folded or not, it was cumbersome, and finding a good case for it was nearly impossible.

I would rather carry something like my Deck in a case than save a little space with a folding device. Those folding screens are also very shiny and super sensitive. You can scratch those screens with your finger nails.

Yeah. I’m not a fan of their shuffle either. I sometimes want music I’ve never heard before. Supposedly their discover weekly playlist is what provides this but it’s always full of covers of songs I already regularly listen to.

I’m checking out Tidal right now. Is there a way to import the playlists that doesn’t cost money?

When you say “a real shuffle” what do you mean?

So far the audio quality is noticeably better and I have both set to maximum quality. Only complaint so far is that they seem to combine artists of same or similar names. For example, it was tough to find Wolves without it confusing different artists of the same name. I found a metal core band from Milwaukee of the same name which I like, but I was looking for a band from the early 2000’s from Massachusetts. Once I found them, Tidal lists other artists’ albums under the more albums section.

I always thought that was the point of it. To be comment on the absurdity of stereotypical businessmen of the time. All wearing the same “uniform,” using the same business cards, indistinguishable from one another.

Could be full-commission sales too.

I wish I knew what I was doing because I very rarely get that stuff, unless I go to Shorts. Then that crap shows up in both the Shorts and my recommendations. After ignoring them for a couple days they go away and stay away as long as I also avoid Shorts… So maybe that’s the key?

I’ve been looking forward to this remake for a while.

I noticed the fire and I noticed the tent. I was too distracted by the hands to notice that the fire was in the tent… What has AI images done to me? Haha.

I’ve never had the roundabout one either. But I do often get ones where I’m on a rural highway and it will give an alternative route to exit the highway, take this long twisting road that dumps me back on the highway ahead of me, adding a needless 40 minutes. Haha.

They give you a discount per month. So for example, a $1000 phone is on sale for $600, but they don’t give you $400 off up front. Its a $11.11 per month discount for the next 36 months. You pay $16.67 per month until its paid off. If you pay it up front you pay $1000. If you leave early or pay it off early you lose the $11/month discount on the payment for the phone

Its intended to lure people in for an advertised cheap or free phone, but then you’re stuck with them paying for the device.

Because people finance their phones with AT&T, usually without realizing it. “Free” phones and discounted phones are not usually free or discounted. You’re forced to stay with them to get the discount off each month. I hate it because I’d rather just pay for my phone outright and be done, but then you actually pay more.

I prefer to keep my notes as handwritten (I draw a lot of diagrams and graphs in my notes). But it does indeed convert my handwriting to type if I want it to. And it does a great job of it especially with how messy my handwriting can be.

The feel of it is very comfortable too (feels like writing on paper). I used to use a Surface Book in tablet mode for notes, but wanted to get away from Microsoft. The screen of the Note 3C isn’t smooth, it’s textured like paper

Their note app takes some getting used to, but it works pretty well (templates are a little tricky, but they just made an update to improve it).

The only thing I really miss from OneNote on the Surface was printing PDFs into OneNote. That said, you can annotate directly onto PDFs, it just makes things a little less organized unless you use the PDF as a template.

Yeah. The color definitely isn’t a replacement for an actual comic or graphic novel. It’s good enough to give you an idea of what it should look like. And I agree. If you have no need for the color, then black and white is going to be much better.

I have the Boox Onyx Note 3c. Its a color e-ink and its okay for comics. But I mainly use it for note taking. The colors are helpful for more detailed notes. The eink display makes it easier in my eyes especially for long days of note taking.

Did some googling. Found this from a reddit thread but the link they gave is broken so I wasn’t able to confirm. I believe it might be adult content based upon where the broken link redirected.

The OP scene is in ch.3 pg.9, but it’s edited. She actually says, “I want to stay here!”

I agree. Shorts are just a way for me to discover new creators when I’m on the toilet since my recommendations page sucks now and never recommends new creators to me.

It’s probably due to ice and wind. Ice freezes on power lines and the wind causes the lines to “gallop.” Look up some videos of galloping lines. With more infrastructure going underground where it can, this is becoming less of an issue obviously. But it’s not just inches of snow and temperatures that cause the problems.

Yep. My least secure password is the one I use at work because I’m restricted to 9-12 characters, can’t be sequential forwards or backwards including keys next to each other (abc, 123, qwerty), can’t begin with a number, must contain at least three numbers, must be at least four characters different from your last twelve passwords, and must be changed every 90 days. Oh and it can’t include your first or last name.

Most of my coworkers just use a family members name and then change a few numbers at the end and keep a post it note at their desk with the numbers so they don’t forget it.
