Yeah but there’s clunky in the way where its big but still a single unit as designed and intended, and clunky when its got some extra growth hanging off the back of it like some technological parasite.
Of course, my advice is only that, and you should choose the approach that works best for you. But advice is why you came here right :)
I have a portable monitor that I’m pretty pleased with.
It has a magnetic cover that goes over the screen to keep it safe, and that same cover folds and goes on the back to act as a stand when it’s in use. Power and video are via the same USB-C cable.
Nice and slim and stays in my bag most of the time but when I want a second screen I can whip it out in two secs.
A screen that attaches to the laptop sounds convenient initially, but I feel like in practice it would be a hindrance and make your laptop clunky and bulky.
This may be a nonsense suggestion but is the game trying to activate the headphone mic?
If so this could be switching it to a different mode and cutting your headset audio quality in half.
EDIT: two other people suggested the same thing at the same time, never mind :)
The teaser trailer looks like a high energy superhero romp that’s closer to Guardians of the Galaxy, than it is anything Star Trek.
And I just don’t like the idea that section 31 is made up of a bunch of oddballs and misfits with no discipline. Makes the movie more ‘exciting’ I guess, but really? Section 31 should move quietly in the shadows, not all brash and ballsy.
I’m sure they are hoping this style will boost revenue by appealing to a younger demographic, but it’s just totally the opposite of what I want from Star Trek.
The number one thing I noticed after installing Linux on my old macbook was that the battery life was immediately halved.
I totally expected that to happen, though, because my previous experience had always been that power management on Linux was kinda terrible.
Time to try this out and see!
It was weird to me too.
In fairness to the author, I can find a way to speak those two words aloud in a way that works, and sounds like something someone could genuinely say, but that requires a pretty specific stress and pitch.
You’re already!
But the first time you read the words it’s just not going to come out like that.
And that’s the problem. As a writer you can’t just put words on the page the same way you yourself might speak them, and expect people to read it that way. The spoken word does not translate perfectly to writing.
You need to have an awareness of how people are likely to parse the words on the page, and choose wording that doesn’t cause people to trip or stumble, even if it isn’t the exact phrasing you’d use in organic speech.
The comic fails on that at the final line.
Ah, awesome. I just read through your comment and that makes a lot of sense.
I stand by my ideology, but your comment helps me appreciate the reality of that situation, and that if you are smoking or doing other non-alcohol things, you should probably keep that very much to yourself.
From the perspective of an attendee who is going completely ‘cold turkey’ on everything, I can see how even the idea of someone else using different substances could be offensive, because it could feel like it undermines the effort they are putting in, and is confrontational that you get to have this other vice, while they are doing it ‘the hard way’
I dont really agree with that perspective, and in some ways it seems toxic in its own right, but I can understand why people would feel that way.
I have not, and my take is purely my ideological viewpoint.
Care to share your perspective? :)
I assume you’re asking the question on the basis of hypocrisy, I.e. “Is it hypocritical to smoke weed while you’re an AA member?”
My take is that no, it wouldn’t be.
People who are in AA are there because they struggle with alcohol addiction and they need community and support around that. And that’s why you’d also be there too. There’s nothing hypocritical about having other vices in your life aside from alcohol if those vices are not the source of your troubles. You can still attend in good faith for the right reasons.
For the price of free I can tell you the answer is yes.
You haven’t unlocked that character yet
They are all brilliant
The design is so convenient for someone to pull off the ‘outside’ part of the sticker.
I almost threw up a little in my mouth at this image
For added theatrics, after they pay you can slowly fade the site back in over a few days too, as if websites need bill money the same way humans need food, and it is slowly getting better after “being starved”
The fade should be slow and subtle. At first the client thinks they are just imagining it, but then they start getting customer support calls about the site being faded, and their bosses are pointing it out too in meetings, and as it happens more and more the panic really begins to set in.
Finally they reach out to you in a desperation when there’s barely anything left of the site and ask you to urgently fix the problem, and you just shrug your shoulders sympathetically and explain it’s happening because they haven’t paid - but not like in a way that suggests you are doing it on purpose, but a way where it’s simply an unavoidable natural consequence, like if you didn’t pay your electricity bill your power would get cut and the site is slowly “dying” and fading away because of that.
They’d pay so fast.
