Truth be told, the Wii U gamepad is basically h.264 and Wi-Fi as well.

Yep, here's the documentation for the GamePad protocol: https://libdrc.org/docs/re/index.html

I can't even get Gemini to properly call somebody - it is a mess.

Does it work nowadays? Back in High Sierra days whenever I tried turning this off it did absolutely nothing and still reordered my shit.

Turning off "Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use" keeps the spaces in the order I left them. That's nice. Three finger swipe between spaces when not using the preview seems to work.

However, swiping beetween the previews, it sometimes jumps to random places in the order - which is not nice.

Possibly a bug, but I might as well just write this as a letter to Santa because it's got more chance of being read than a feeback.


We seem to work in very similar fields. I tend to work on the back-end line. To put it lightly: it is all a big shitshow. Vendor lock-in, non-standard communication, network admins who have no idea what they are doing, radiology imaging clinics with no IT staff at all (even on-call external people) or places that had their network set up 15 years ago by a guy who is now long dead or otherwise MIA. And then, inevitably, you have to guide the innocent girl sitting at the front desk to somewhere in the local backrooms just to reset a server remotely.

Yes, seen it all. I love how the girl is still talk weeks later.

It is a great field though. The wide range of tech you're confronted with is astonishing and all of it live 24/7.

I wish I'd have discovered the field earlier in my life, there is so much room for improvement.


Switch to a backpack or just leave the laptop in your car...?

So I would have to buy a car to carry a laptop?

Or get what fits your preferred routine if available, instead of changing to match others?

Though my experience with this brand is mixed at best so I'd personally give this one a miss, especially given the reviewer's comments on the keyboard.


How much of your current knowledge would you simply lack were it not for the Internet?


It is trivial for a parent to gather materials for the kids without exposing them to billions of strangers/companies with who knows what intent toward them.


...unless they go and visit Mikey over the fence, whose parents are cool unlike you and let him – willingly or not – wank to hardcore porn at 11.


funny, but seriously.. Caring about child safety is not only about restricting network access, but also choosing the right (read as safe/predictable/stable) place for living.

I understand that this is not always possible, but... it's spectrum - try to reach maximum and do your best.

Also, consider that I don't have any experience in raising a little human, so, probably, I'm talking nonsense


What did you use to ship the laptop?


I presume the 968 was chosen because it all seems like the Neo is only the first hurrah into this whole entry-level field for Apple.


My 2015 MacBook Air, purchased new in 2017, was already practically dead by 2021.


How

I still use my 2015 macbook air (purchased in 2015) as a secondary computer. I installed linux on it last year as it was not getting software updates anymore.

Other than one of the USB ports being a bit flaky it works perfectly fine.
