Too real

Forgive my ignorance as a non-Mac user, but isn't the screen that shows up when pressing WIN+Tab similar? It shows all your open windows and their content, plus (iirc) let's you switch to/create additional desktops.

I taught my wife about clicking the first item and shift-clicking the last item you want selected. She knew about holding CTRL to select/deselect multiple items but not that shortcut. That's when I realized I don't even remember learning most things about operating a computer.

I only recently found out about the middle mouse button thing when accidentally clicking on the new tab button with a folder location on my clipboard.

Agreed. This really sounds like a loophole needs to be closed. I think eliminating the "fee" would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Rural communities deserve to be connected; the issue is the 300 buildings connected in a town of 80 people.

Minnesota becomes first state to ban prediction markets and makes it a felony

I'll start off by saying I'm not sure if prediction markets take crypto or not. However, even if they did, there's not really any crypto brokers that don't follow KYC (know your customer) policies. It would require a subpoena to get the information about a specific customer, but the ledger is public, so you can see everyone's transactions.

Interesting to see everyone's experience with this. My Motorola phone will let me turn Bluetooth on/off, but all WiFi settings require unlock.

A web page that shows you everything the browser told it

It told me I was likely sitting while I was sitting at my dining table. I assume if your phone is angled more towards the ground it would say you're in bed.

Hardly newsworthy in this state, but the funnel on that thing looks pretty wild in the videos.

Scratched 😬 my daily wear

I use a cheap smartwatch, but I've been considering using one of those "liquid glass" screen protector solutions to combat scratches. I wonder if something like that would be good for a real watch?

HOLY SHIT, THIS IS WHERE MY NISSAN PATHFINDER GOT THIS SHIT FROM??? I hate it with a passion. The worst is going through an automatic car wash and HOPING it actually shifts into neutral. And then once it does shift into neutral, it beeps a warning on the dashboard and tells you how to exit the vehicle while in neutral. JUST LET ME SHIFT THE FUCKING THING LIKE A NORMAL VEHICLE AND YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT. I only drive it for work, and I swear I will never buy a personal vehicle newer than 2008 ever again.

ETA: You wanna guess how to guarantee it shifts into neutral? "Shift" into park, DON'T press the side button, which for some reason mechanically blocks the shifter from going into the reverse position only, and then move it towards the reverse position. If you move it in the other direction, there's nothing preventing you from shifting back into drive.
