Back ups protect you from 4 things:

Why do people need to backup their PCs?

Nadella has REALLY turned things around. VS Code, Edge Chromium, real Office on Chromebooks, SQL on Linux, Linux on Windows. They have become VERY open source and very cross platform friendly. Ballmer was a jerk. Gates really changed his perspective on things in the later years, but Ballmer just held fast to the old…

I actually miss the days when the most annoying part of a website was an animated banner ad or popup (and to think we used to complain). Now it’s the notification about cookies, a popup asking you if they can send you notifications, asking you if the site can use your location, ads everywhere, an auto-playing video…

Never button up your case until you’re absolutely certain everything is going to work.

Yeah, so... Can we have an actual thoughtful discussion about the problem, instead of more of this meaningless and repetitive crap?

Learning to suss out accurate online reviews is a life skill needed now. We don’t need to be able to hide from wolves or lions, we do need to know how to filter bullshit. Amazon is an excellent place to learn thanks to their return policies.

I’m surprised that the article didn’t list sites such as fakespot as a tool for the buyer to judge if the reviews are legitimate. I realize that one of the suggested sites at the end of the article links to a previous article solely about fakespot, but it still would’ve been nice to mention.

Yeah, I don’t look at the aggregate star rating but I will read some actual reviews and search them based on keywords I might be worried or otherwise interested in.

No, I was simply eluding to the schnozzles (liquid fuzzy bits) ejected from my nose after sipping a slog of Diet Coke and then laughing heartily upon reading the final sentence written by SpaceboyScreams just above.

No, your tax rate is not 50%/85%. I think I can explain this, but as you get closer to retirement, you’ll want to check with the SSA office to verify it’s all right. (I’m pretty sure my example here is correct, but IANASocialSecurityL)

does nobody use redbox around here. You still cant beat $2 for a new release. Plenty of dvd trays still in use

I actually did something similar recently — I ripped all my old DVDs, including some of the director’s commentary / special features and store them on an old laptop running Plex. I now basically have my own, personal Netflix, with none of the worries about properties leaving without warning, and I don’t have to take…

Number 1 advice I always have for anyone regarding money is simple: Make your goal to track every dollar if you don’t already. Know exactly what you spend and what you make every month. That’s the goals, so figure out how to do that in the way that makes most sense to you whether its Mint or budget software (for me it…

He’s not wrong. Envy kills happiness.

There’s always the whaling and gnashing of teeth because some evil person has so much more money than they do... except of course if it’s Oprah. I was smart and started putting into my retirement at the very first job where that option was available. Since then, I’ve only worked at two other places. I’m almost 50 now…

Gotta say I’m literally the opposite. I played a decent amount of 4, but 5 just felt... weird to me. 6 somehow managed to recapture that spirit for me. Every little patch and improvement has been making an already lovely game all the more excellent.

How much did it cost to set the hold/freeze? It bothers me they collect our info without our permission and then charge us to keep it safe.

The fundamental basis of your article if flawed. How would paying all that money for insurance have saved you any money out of pocket at 24? It would have cost you the insurance costs but because you haven’t met the deductible yet you’d still have had to pay that out of pocket as well. And guess what? When you have…
