“Let’s take the most recognizable software package name and make it something totally divorced from what the software is supposed to be for.”
There are probably people for whom Microsoft Office is the only desktop software that they use. There are probably many people in procurement that are going to scratch their heads and think twice about signing off on something that sounds like a flight simulator.
This is an opportunity for alternate office suites.
I found this in a bookstore end-cap near the fantasy/sci-fi section. Thought it was going to be a novel when I picked it up. Can’t remember if I read the jacket before I left with it.
Destroyed my faith in religion. I highly recommend.
Could you not create a separate partition on the internal drive for Windows 11 and boot from that? That’s how I would do it for MacOS or Linux installs.
Toyota’s Bold Bet: Why It’s Doubling Down on Hydrogen as Rivals Go All-Electric
Toyota’s multi-pathway approach keeps hydrogen fuel cells at the heart of its long-term plan, betting the technology will replace diesel and complement EVs in the next decade.
Hydrogen is still their focus. EV tech has it’s limitations and hydrogen can or a combination of hydrogen and EV tech could be a stronger strategy, long term.
My impression is that much of the world is more positive on hydrogen than the USA. Toyota seems to be slow-walking EVs in anticipation of hydrogen breakthroughs. Mist of what you say about fuel stations could have been said about charging infrastructure not that long ago.
I think Toyota is still betting on hydrogen? I hope hydrogen can take off in the mass market, soon. It has the potential to be a better energy store than batteries.
Plan meals for a week. Make list of what’s needed. Shop once a week. Rarely eat out. Never delivery.
They don’t pay 38$ for just iCloud storage.
If they’re paying that much they likely have Apple One highest tier which includes AppleTV, Apple Fitness+, Apple Music, Apple News+, and Apple Arcade in addition to the iCloud storage at 2TB.
If they only need iCloud storage and don’t need any of those other services, you should just move them to a lower iCloud account that is enough storage for them. It will be affordable and simpler.
Maybe, they transitioned before the diagnosis?
But, it was the ‘80s…
Maybe that’s a sign that the cat is not healthy.
I would say, “never trust a CEO who wears a leather jacket.”
I’ve know plenty of bikers, punks, artists, etc that wear a leather jacket. But, a CEO in one stinks of, “hello there, fellow plebs.”
I wonder if it’s just a pack mammal thing. Like the way young male lions hang out in groups but the older ones are solitary especially if they have a pride.
Like, if you get carjacked by a Border Collie?
Less than 1000 calories per day is way too low for a lot of people. Like, an unhealthy level. You’ll put your body into starvation mode.
As far as MacBooks go, it’s easy for me. Every Mac I’ve owned has outlasted Windows/Linux PCs to the point of being the more frugal option if the upfront cost is affordable.
That doesn’t take into account whether you need Windows specific software—mostly games and some technical, industry specific software. Sometimes Wine/Crossover or virtualization is an option.
That said, balance your necessities, your emergency fund, your retirement fund. If those are reasonably covered, you’re in the position for a big spend especially on something durable that also makes life easier.
You asked people what they do. Then you shit on their tradition when they tell you? Fuck off.
It is actual addiction. It might not be as damaging as an opioid addiction but it’s still addiction. They have to recognize and acknowledge the addiction and want to change before any change can happen.
There’s a two recent Hidden Brain podcast episodes that explain how dopamine rewards turn into addiction. I highly recommend them. It will explain a lot about what’s happening to your friends—though, sounds like you have much of it figured out. I plan on reading the psychiatrist’s book.
Hidden Brain Podcast:
6.5 hours per day every weekend does not seem reasonable or healthy to me.
Hell, if someone was exercising that much or fishing or knitting or any hobby, it wouldn’t seem healthy. Once in a while, sure. But, not every weekend.
HBO execs are letting out a sigh of relief.
