I put it in an eWaste pile which I hope is sending it off to be “recycled”. There was no saving my palm pre or touchpads.

It’s hard sometimes, I needed a new laptop to get a better CPU for video encoding. I now have my older laptop, which is actually a hand me down, so it’s old, but it’s going to replace my even older laptop that’s running a 2nd gen i3. So that’s going to be the one I will likely bring to an eWaste site as it will no longer serve me. Sure I could keep it around as a spare, you never know, but I really doubt that will happen.
All my laptops are running some form of Linux, except one. That’s used to run turbo tax (I know) as the windows software is typically much more affordable over the website version. So that saves me like $50 each year.
Anyway, eventually I’ll need to toss my old pixel xl as the battery only last about 45 minutes and I think lineage isn’t able to update it, I didn’t check the last few months. I was planning to have it be my kids first tablet, but a battery replacement is around $75 I think… Just seems not worth it.
My trouble is battery health of older phones and laptops. I typically purchase scratch and dents from Dell outlet and for phones wait for the battery to only make it 4hours before it needs a charge.
This might be unique to each parent as well. Some children do require extra attention and it is very difficult to managed work time in.
With most schools letting kids out around 3pm it’s not easy to keep the children occupied before the work day is finished. This leaves parents either on a work call with kids heard in the background or working late at night al week.
Think of it as if the person is a caretaker and a full time employee at your company. It’s basically two full times just that happen to overlap during the day.
I think calling it a privilege is really unfair but if the people are missing work and not meeting deadlines then management needs to step in and work out a solution. Work life balance is hard.
My Ring app is going crazy the last few weeks about people saying drones are flying around. I’m sure it’s normal…
Smart watch will be what I get my kid instead of a smartphone. Its basically the modern day bepper in my eyes.
“The enchanted journey” it’s a favorite for me growing up.
Maybe the switch for me would require staging on a burner pixel that supported. I have a lot of shopping apps, that I may not need, but need some time on the testing phone to make sure everything works before taking the deep dive.
This is also how I made the switch off windows. Stagged it on a space older laptop to see what’s what.
I’ll get there…
This is a requirement for Immutable Distributions, not that Mint is… But others.
Is it possible to remap the copilot key on the new computers back to the control key? I keep pressing it to skip words, but end up needing to use two hands now.
I’m on Aurora and while I got it mostly working now, I would not call it user friendly.
I wonder if the government still controls the weather?
Zootopia has a scene that shows this issue on microwave meals.
Encoding to AV1 is good to cooking CPUs.
Let’s see him survive the Friday night dinner rush or those late customers coming in right at closing time.
I agree, this isn’t elegant, but works great. There are also even smaller options, but this one the battery lasts forever.
I use Flauncher on my Sony Bravia.

Can I thank the government for all the sunny days as well? I don’t understand how this work, can they only create bad weather or good weather as well?
They will then ask for a third term.
