@davezatz This is why I try to avoid furniture with built in charging ports. No usb c, and even if you don’t need that our devices are power hungry and need more than the piddly from a legacy port.

As I look for another surge protector with USB, I wonder WHAT IF we just replace the two prong plug and go USB-C for everything?

Let us all channel the lighter side of the Force. Let it flow through to those with thankless jobs. May the 4th be with you, and also the support staff we encounter during our day. This is the way.

Before it was all over I made sure to thank both of them for their excellent support. Support desk can be miserable … you rarely hear kudos, but much more likely to hear about complaints. ry day.

Sometimes in IT it is good to stop and humble yourself. I was getting frustrated by how long I was on chat with this company, and probably came across that way. The L1 got everything fixed, except for a caching issue, but the supervisor was also polite and passed along to IT.

@davezatz They need an alert that is less urgent for these situations

That was intense. And while I do want everyone vaccinated, triggering an emergency alert seems excessive.

@AviationGin @VancityReynolds Love your gin, but sadly cannot drink anymore due to unrelated health issues. Have you considered making a non-alcoholic variant?

@ChrisCillizza @WarbyParker I got the Hardy a few years ago and continue to enjoy them

@reneritchie @jsnell I’m a long time Mac user, but have not had the opportunity to use my home machine much. I got a new Mac last week and am realizing just how much has changed. I have followed the features in the various newer releases, so not completely lost. Any tips?

@dblasphemy @elonmusk Trying to remember what it was called... Year of the Dragon?

@dblasphemy @elonmusk I love that one!

I'll drop another hint on the update from the 2000s that I'm working on in Blender. The hint is... @elonmusk

@Rangutang @Humanstein Prodigy for me as well, though I don’t recall the exact year.

@Humanstein Does pre-Internet Prodigy count? That was 1990 for me.

What was the first Internet community you were part of? Bonus points if you can pin down the year.
