53 slides. Awesome.

“...the Genius Bar’s triage of your bricked device will result in not a DFU restore, but likely a second replacement of your device’s logic board.”

Yeah, that’s genius: Instead of losing money on providing the correct fix, Apple can MAKE money on new logic boards that have nothing to do with fixing the actual problem.

This isn’t an issue for me, as I usually just eat takeout over the sink.

What? No “Calvin peeing on your vehicle brand’s competitor’s logo”?

Resort fees are pretty much synonymous with every Strip hotel Vegas. And they’re definitely not negotiable. Everyone hates them. It’s just a way to advertise a $150 room for $99.

This is pretty much the opposite of a hack. This could be called, “How to completely destroy any standing you have with family and friends for generations to come.”

I love the idea of a password management service. I do.

“Why not eat a whole pan of cheese.”

Your colon would like a word with you.

I totally miss the McDLT too -- I’m sure they could have solved the wonky packaging issue with a little effort. Loved the taste and the whole concept of it.

Here’s very simple advice:

OK, wait: Up front, the contributions can either be pre-tax (via an employer) or tax deductible if you contribute after-tax money yourself. I understand that much.

Unless it’s a flat-out crisis situation with no other options, I’m not sure I’d opt for any of these. Saving a few bucks at the risk of putting an expensive device in jeopardy is a disaster waiting to happen. Think about it: Electrical short-circuits, intermittent or bizarre performance, potentially corrupt files...is…

“What’s your sign?”
“Dinosaur.”
“That’s not a real one, silly.”
“None of them are.”

“Sitting 60 miles north of the Caribbean island of St. Martin is the British Overseas Territory of Anguilla.”

It’s actually less than six miles. 25-minute ferry from Marigot, St. Martin to Blowing Point, Anguilla.

Even if your company values you AND there are a few budget dollars available (two very big assumptions), be prepared for the big put-off: Not a yes, not a no...just a “well, let me look into that and get back to you” type of response. Directors and VPs are extremely skilled at this.

Best strategy: Ask once and give a…

Exactly as I knew they would, Apple has its hooks so deeply set into our family with Apple Music, there’s no way we could switch if we wanted to. All the various playlists and downloads—spread across four users and probably a dozen devices, built over the past five years plus the integration of actual files from…

I’d bet you a beer that if you compared 1080p Blu-Ray side-by-side with a 4K streaming equivalent, you’d like the Blu-Ray better. (Because while the resolution is only half that of 4k, the compression levels are far, far lower.)

A few things to add:

I love this. David, how much does the existing coax quality (age, RG6 vs RG59, connectors, couplers, splitter, etc) come into play? Is it pretty forgiving, or only as good as its weakest point?

I will absolutely respect your gender identity pronouns. I completely understand that gender isn’t necessarily binary. I will offer nothing but respect to you as a person who is worthy of respect.
