PNG is fine. The industry likes to reinvent the wheel every few years so that you have to upgrade everything. It’s ridiculous nonsense.

How many real life users are going to install software from somewhere other than the built in app store on their phone?

Governments are going about this the wrong way. The problem isn’t with app stores. The problem is that you can’t install a different OS on your phone (or current Mac, or iPad).

Either way, nice attention to detail.

This is unfortunately not satire.

I am impressed that someone took the time to match the sign placement to the donuts pictured on the sign.

Lots of things we could do to encourage having children in the US. Like providing socialized healthcare. Investing in education. Higher salaries. Better work benefits.

But we don’t do any of these things. Quite the opposite. And yet the powers that be still expect us to want more kids?

What a shite article. Reads like a pro-natalism opinion piece instead of news. I gave up about 2/3 of the way through.

Goes on and on pointing the finger at women, as if men don’t want to have babies either. Has a very “it’s all your fault” tone. Then whines that baby boomers are aging out of the workforce.

Dumbass, there’s a reason they are called “boomers” - they were born during a period when there were an unusually large number of births. Boomers are the exception not the rule.

And the Trump administration has been putting everyone out of work (have you seen all the layoffs this week?), so it’s probably a good thing there will be less people in the workforce since there are equally less jobs available.

The nice thing about the Hackintosh was the upgradability/repairability. Wishing Apple would bring some of that back.

Why would I want that? I don’t even want it on my Mac.

Does Oracle own JavaScript? I thought JavaScript was developed by Netscape and that Oracle claimed to own the rights to Java, which is not the same thing.

Side-by-sides require you to pretty much squat to get to the items on the lowest shelves. Consider taking a look at units that have a freezer drawer instead. Go to the store, and try accessing the bottom items in both kinds see which one is easier for you. This is especially important if you or someone in your family has a bad back.

Check to see how the shelves adjust. Compare to what you currently have in your home. Some refrigerators allow you to split shelves. Other others have a single shelf that goes the entire width of the refrigerator. For example, where would you put the leftover pizza box? Or the milk carton? Can the doors hold the items that are currently in your fridge doors?

When shopping, be sure to look at the warranty, especially on the compressor. Some of the warranties are really lousy. Repairing the cooling system (compressor and coolant refill) can cost just out of warranty as buying a new refrigerator. LG for example has a 10 year warranty on some of their compressors, but not all of their models. Be sure to check the warranty on the specific model you are buying.

Some refrigerators have icemakers in the door, some of them in the freezer. In my experience it doesn’t matter which you choose. having a bunch of ice located in the freezer helps keep it cool. What is more important is if you want a filtered water dispenser. If this is the case, I recommend getting one on the door exterior so you don’t have to let all the chilled air out while you fill a glass or pitcher. The exception is that some Samsung models include a pitcher that’s kept automatically filled in the refrigerator door. However, this pitcher is plastic, so that may be a concern depending on your views on microplastics.

If you are worried about where your appliances manufactured, you’re going to need to look at the label inside the fridge. It will sayon the label. You can’t really just rely on a brand, since brands have factories in multiple countries. You should also be aware that there aren’t a lot of brands really left. Most of the brands have been allowed to merge into a handful companies. You can look up the brand on Wikipedia to see who the actual manufacturer is.

I encourage you to take actual measurements of the appliance at a store. Relying on the measurements on a website can be very confusing. Some depth measurements include the depth of the doors, some do not some specified depths with handles, some do not you need to measure the space where your fridge will fit this includes height, width, and depth.

I’m honestly surprised that dollar figure isn’t predicted to be higher.

It’s sad and pathetic that Microsoft gave up on their own rendering engine. Edge is just a chrome clone with a bunch of privacy invading marketing crap stuffed into it.

Tells me all I need to know about this dude.

You should just be able to see the ground under the back tires of the car in front of you. That’s the appropriate distance.

Here’s hoping the UK does a better job with this than the US.

1. Our emergency alerts go off far too often about things that aren’t emergencies.
2. And when there is an emergency (like the floods in Texas this week) they don’t bother sending out an alert.
3. And if they do bother, people don’t receive an alert because they’ve disabled them due to point 1.

Yes, safety costs money.
