    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    Upgrading from a Moto z3 to an S21 5G Ultra this week, the Moto battery is shot and phone dies with about 50% capacity showing. Verizon had a decent $200 trade-in offer, normally they offer like $10 bucks for an old one like mine. Also got the Samsung case with spen holder. Edit to add: Samsung...

    MAC M1

    Other issue with M1 is limited support for external monitors when compared with their Intel counterparts. Presumably will be fixed with M2 etc.

    Android phones: Tips, tricks?

    Coronavirus

    Thanks. First shot I had a little soreness in the arm the first night but nothing after that. The second shot has definitely affected me more, stiffness in the lower back and neck and just generally feel like crap like I'm getting the flu.

    Had my second shot of Pfizer/Biontech today at work where they were running clinics for employees. USA is really cranking with vaccinations now with availability to everyone over 18.

    Empire in Decline

    So apparently the reason used was failing to moderate. But what about Twitter and Facebook groups which arguable had more use for planning of the capitol riots? https://www.detroitnews.com/story/opinion/2021/01/16/opinion-big-tech-parler-trick-pretend-content-moderation-matters/4178474001/ My...

    I would agree insofar as private companies being free to restrict speech as they see fit. But certainly what we saw with Parler and being shutdown by AWS shows the risk in putting your infrastructure in the hands of a company that can "turn off the lights" if it finds your content to be...

    Something Random

    Watched a documentary on Amazon Prime called "The Man Who Saved The World". I had no idea the world came so close to total nuclear annihilation but for the actions of one man. Highly recommend a watch.

    Empire in Decline

    I beg to differ. He has taken aggressive action against fossil fuels starting with the cancellation of the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office, swiftly followed by rejoining of the Paris accord with additional aggressive cuts in carbon, and then executive action to...
