I'm okay with servers being shut down eventually, my issue is we don't know when. If they want to call it a license and that it will be revoked later, well fucking plan it out and tell people. Did the game get cheaper as the clock ran down? Did the people buying 10 years of access pay more than people that only got to play it once? I'm pissed for the people like me that sometimes take a few years to get to playing their games only to find the servers are gone and they thought they were buying something (or at least licensing something) they would get to use.

Of course they would probably find that if they told people how long they could use it, a lot of people wouldn't pay them for it (i.e. their business would fail without intentionally deceiving their customers).

Throw in a dash of track-me-not (https://www.trackmenot.io/) and maybe they'll start ignoring your search queries too! Worst case my actual searches are so buried in the bs deciding what to market would be easier from my screen-name.

I've been using vinegar for this for most of my life but have never added salt. Does that speed it up, or help in some other way?

You're technically correct, there is no law prohibiting a current or former president from driving, but there is a policy preventing it and it is enforced by the secret service (who follow them around for the rest of their life). Many former presidents have gone on the record that the lose of their driving privileges really sucks (Bush 43, Clinton, and Obama have all discussed it on camera during various interviews). It's been a policy since Kennedy was assassinated, lots of other policy changes too, but one was the no driving bit.

And one just about some times they drove anyway:

I recently did out my old 401B after the screen fell off my Galaxy Active2. It charged right up and still lasts about a week.

Finding a new band was a PITA because of the weird segmented hinge bit but one person was selling diver bands for it on Amazon (I think it was Amazon)... Really not bad for a watch from a decade ago.

Edit: Yes, you can still use them without the OG servers being up, look up 'Rebble' (rebble.io)

I used Kodi for years (back before and during the XMBC - > Kodi shift) before moving to Plex, it was great (a pain for a good config, but once your clients have remote access and use a shared database its insane how good it can be) but Plex was touted for so long I figured I'd give it a try when I saw a good sale. I've been using it for the past 8 years or so but may go back to Kodi or Jellyfin.

A long, long time ago, at a helpdesk far, far away I "revived" a couple hard drives with a short drop. Never actually fixed them, but it's gotten a few to spin just long enough to retrieve some important emails or documents.

I wouldn't recommend it, but sometimes you just gotta persuade stuff...

That's a pretty cool site. Comparing today to a year ago reminds me of a time with hope.

Short simple scripts can handle key presses, you can even add a little logic to ensure it doesn't follow the same pattern and give you a workday countdown to boot.

I don't remember offhand, but I think that's buried in a restricted settings area... I needed it for something I can't remember now.

Edit:

Settings > Apps >Special app access > Display over other apps

I was a fan of leaving the orientation normal, but moving the start bar and setting it to auto-hide. A long time ago I put a simple bat file (like "shutdown -l -t 0" or similar) in a coworkers startup folder... I guess that was a step too far though and he thought I broke his computer. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

You also have the best shutters ever.
