Somewhat related, but I had been using Dropbox for years and had been very happy with it. At first I used it just to backup pictures I took, but over time I was using it more and more. Recently I rebuilt a PC and installed dropbox and it told me I couldn't link it because the new terms were free = only three devices. Sure, I understand, but I am not going to pay for this. I had already been running my own, er, owncloud server and have spent the past day cutting over everything to it. Just a few hours ago I disabled the camera upload on my phone for dropbox and enabled it for owncloud. Steve Jobs described dropbox as a feature, not an app. I loved dropbox back when it was a feature, but I will not pay for it as an app. I'll keep my own files on my own server going forward. RIP dropbox.

Firstly, anything that starts off with 'Use gpedit' isn't simple. Secondly, if you cannot provide more specific advice than "turn off all cloud content settings," it's not simple. Lastly, gpedit does not come with home edition, which is what most users have.

  C:\WINDOWS\system32>gpedit.msc
  'gpedit.msc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
  operable program or batch file.

USPS is mandated by Congress to budget for future retirements of employees who are not even born yet. Tough to be profitable with that mandate...Easy to target by anti-public-sector folks.

When we are increasingly barraged by misinformation, I'd rather google be a reliable source for good information rather than a conduit for even more political garbage videos.

At a previous job, we used to joke (only half-heartedly) that if something had a light on it, it was obviously IT's responsibility. Hmmm, the coffee isn't has hot as it used to be. Oh, the coffee-maker has a light on the power switch! Open a ticket and call IT!

Agreed, I think if anyone is expecting the science of "The Martian" meets the made-for-tv drama of "Game of Thrones", they'll be disappointed. The books certainly had some very interesting concepts and, in the case of Arkady, interesting characters and motivation. However, as OP hinted at, there were dozens or hundreds of pages of boring to go in between the fun parts.

I wonder if the quality of speech coming from the cell phone has anything to do with the amount of processing required. When people can't hear things very well, they start piecing together the dropped parts of the conversation by using some sort of contextual implication. You know what the subject is, so you have a good chance of surmising the dropped words due to context. I would think something similar could be possible for talk radio as well. I think if you listen to one talk show host consistently enough, you develop a better ability to understand what is being said, but a new talk show host can take some getting used to. Just some thoughts.
