I wouldn’t imagine even a privately owned business would qualify for privacy. I don’t expect any privacy when I’m walking around in Walmart.

Lots of healthy, happy people with disposable income.

Not the original you replied to. And I had a typo when trying to spell typo 😂 just adding to the conversation. Wasn’t disputing you, just meant the may have meant refresh rate instead of resolution. Easy mistake. It’s still quite disputed how well eyes can tell the difference in refresh rates.

I imagine it was a typo*, but this article in Nature reports that in specifics circumstances the median maximum that people can perceive a difference may be around 500hz, with the maximum in their test possibly being as high as 800hz.

Normally though it seems closer to 50-90hz, but I’m on the road and haven’t delved too deeply into it

Edit: Type to Typo

I much prefer random ads anyways. Targeted ads are 90% something You’ve already recently bought.

With random ads sometimes you see something interesting that you didn’t even know you wanted because you didn’t know it even existed.

If I’m looking for a laptop I don’t care to see 1000 ads for laptops, I’m not going to just click an ad and buy one I need to research and deep dive into the kind I want.

Yes

Personally I’ve never had an issue with Asus products but have had numerous quality issues with Acer. Bought a number of small Acer laptops and the hinges kept breaking because they only put one screw in the hold the hinge instead of two in many of them.

I quite liked it, don’t usually like musical shows but the tunes are catchy and somewhat funny sometimes

The very rare need for it seems like it would be best to just rent a camera when needed or buy a better specific use one for a toolbox rather than needing to carry a mediocre one around in your pocket 24/7

I would rather the audiobook wait to release by a few weeks/months if it means keeping the same actor.

Again the excuse of ‘no politics’

YOU CAN’T AVOID POLITICS

Accepting contracts from Israel is just as political as denying contracts from Israel. You just stated your political stance by accepting. Why do people think it’s a free copout?

I’m curious how they came up with 3.48 hours. Does rounding it up to 3.5 really make that much of a difference?

A lot of times that’s where people cross the street. Want people to stop before the spot people might step out into.

The flaw with salary is that there is no defined amount of “work”.

It wont always be because you underestimated the complexity and mismanaged your time. If they asked you to complete a task and the only way to do it was to work 80 hours a week, sure that’s sometimes necessary. But what if they do that every week? Unless you were aware of those requirements during the hiring process and salary negotiation there’s nothing you can do. What if they pile on even more to your 80 hour week and you need to work the occasional 100 hour week?

There’s no way to regulate salary abuse, that’s why the system needs to be based on an average of hours.

So instead of giving people notice so they can change their information they decide to sit on it until they cover their asses. Typical.

Well ya, that’s why you put it on when the thing is being installed. Not talking about a Reno/repair.

If they didn’t put salt resistant paint on it when they first installed the thing because it was a few hundred dollars more that would be stupid.

I was driving down a highway once and noticed that there was a blue reflective marker on top of the concrete barrier every few hundred feet or so.

Took me about an hour or two before I noticed that it aligned with where the drainage basins were, probably for snow removal in the winter.

I imagine a fire hydrant is pretty expensive as well. Can’t imagine covering it in salt resistant paint would be that much of a price increase and even if it is I don’t imagine it would be cost prohibitive if it means a 20 year replacement cycle vs. a 10 year cycle.

If anything this may be protecting them from dog piss.

There needs to be legislation to reign in salary type work as well.

It still needs to be based on hours, like an average of 40 hours per week sort of thing.

Yes your pay cheque will be the same every week for simplicity, but you shouldn’t be expected to work 60 hours just because you’re salary. If you work one week 50 hours, you should be able to tell your boss you are only working 30 hours the next week.

I have three. The third doesn’t really boost my productivity much, I have it vertical just to show my file browser because I open and switch through different files quite a lot. The other two are to show the actual files I’m working in or comparing.
