I still remember several months into the pandemic how my then-company’s VP brought up how we can go back into the office, but we wouldn’t be able to meet in the same room or be in close proximity to each other, and so any/all communications would still need to be done via MS Teams.

I think even he realized how ridiculous that sounded because there was a momentary pause before he finished his sentence.

They can’t slow down the charging rate unless they want to get in trouble with the EU. If they’re planning to limit the data transfer rate for, say, non-Pro iPhones, that would suck, but then again all iPhones to date have been USB 2.0 at best, and USB Type-C is just the connector and doesn’t say anything about data transfer rates anyway.

Houses around me go for around $1m. If I can get an equivalent house for half that, and the only issue is a mortal serial killer and not some Insidious demon, I’m game.

I used Bing to find a parts diagram for my car after repeatedly failing to do so with Google. I’m sure I could’ve eventually found it with Google using the correct combination of operators and such, but at that point why bother.

I’ve been leaning this way lately. From a cost/capability standpoint, RPis were easy to justify when they were ~$30, but not as much at their current inflated prices unless you have specific power consumption and form factor requirements. Used/refurbished Dell thin clients and MFF PCs can be had for $40-100, ranging from fanless systems with low-power Atoms and Celerons to full-fledged desktops with Core i-series CPUs, all with memory and storage included more often than not. I personally just picked up a Dell OptiPlex MFF with an i5-9500T, 8GB RAM, and 256GB SSD for $100.
