Current PC is a Mac mini M1. Probably last another 2 years sadly.

Bought a Mac Pro in 2008, upgraded some hardware (ssds, new video card), and was able to run several macOS versions after Apple officially stopped supporting it. Great machine.

That's fine. It means more work for the IRS.

I'll never do business with them.

I still think that this acceleration is cause by it going towards something we don't know about, perhaps planet X, that is in orbit out there.

My mom experienced something similar. In her case, she had documented her employer discriminating her, and in the company settled out of court for a large sum of money.

Still, she didn't continue her employment there. She has since moved to another job where she continues to be perhaps the best employee there (or at least that is what all the notes and emails she gets from the owner indicate).

Just because you are older doesn't mean you can't do the job.

Switched to it when Google Reader died. Haven't regretted it. RSS is a HUGE part of my daily internet. Allows me to keep on top of thousands of sites.

So instead of regulating Uber and other "ride sharing" services......they just create another thing with potentially the same problems.

Why not just cut the BS and just regulate Uber like we do Taxi companies.......like what should have happened a long time ago.

This is Bullshit. The problem with the iPad is that is it so well made that people who bought them are still using them. iOS 9.3 still runs on an iPad 2. For what most of us use an iPad for, web browsing, email, lite things like that, an iPad 2 still works FINE.

Heck, I still use my iPad 1, which is stuck on iOS 5. The thing works fine for Web and email, and for reading things with Good Reader and music stuff with UnReelbook.

Would I like to get an new iPad? Sure. But I don't have the $$$ to afford it at the moment. Will I when my iPad 1 dies? Yes, I will buy a new iPad. Or when my other iPad, an iPad 4, dies? Yes. But I don't see them dying for a while yet.

Yeah, but when was the last time we did that....

America......fuck yeah!

The latest episode of ATP (www.atp.fm), they heard from an Apple Engineer that Apple disables it because most makes of SSD are very inconsistent on how the TRIM command is executed. And Apple being Apple, they don't particularly want to try every SSD known to man to "support" them.

Best bet is to use a drive with a controller than does it for you. I'm sporting SSDs from OWC and I haven't had any issues in speed and I've had them for over two years now.

Newsblur has been more than fine for my RSS feeds. Fast, non-douche based (meaning he’s not going to mine the info and sell it) ownerlove it.

The main, crappy replacement. The real replacement is Newsblur.

I ride to work in the Bay Area, 4 days a week. Or more. Depends. I'm even doing it at night now. I have lights and stuff. I work and live in the east bay, so, there is less traffic.

I have almost been hit a couple of times. It's amazing how people don't look. Even at night with my lights on, I've had people almost turn into where I was going. It's like they are blind.

Oh the flip side, cycling to work saves me about $10 a day. Takes about an hour to get to work, and an hour back. I'm hoping to continue over the winter riding to work.
