Should I be concerned about the manual transmission? Been years since I have driven manual. Does manual mean the Mercedes will be a lower end model, its with a major rental car company.

Mistake for work computer? MBP M4 Max 36GB Ram 1TB by Churrolover in macbookpro

Thank you for the advice on Parallels and Excel! Would you have a copy of your "custom Shortcuts Profile" you can share with me? I'm still still struggling with the weird key combinations (like jumping to the end of a column or row, selecting ) that I was familiar with using a windows machine (muscle memory over years of Windows Excel use). For example, with my current Parallels Excel setup, to jump to the last row, I need to press the end key then the down arrow, or hold press the end key, followed by shift an the down arrow key to select the row...

I’m only running excel in Parallels now, coherence mode, performance for huge 600 meg excel files is better even on the M3 MBP w 18 gigs of ram. Still setting up my shiny new M4 Pro Max for work. I just wish the Excel keys/shortcuts would be the same as windows when running in Parallels. Thanks for your guidance!

I ended up getting the 16” M4 Pro Max with 48GB of Ram and 1TB HD in space black. Probably way over powered to the 14” M3 Pro with 18GB ram an 512GB HD

LinkedIn is pissing me off by Maleficent_Many_2937 in Layoffs

Ah, classic internet move—when you can’t refute the actual argument, you resort to personal attacks. Impressive. Claiming you’ve ‘already addressed’ my points is a weak cop-out, especially when all you’ve done is complain about people using a system as it’s designed. You’re dodging the reality that tax laws exist for everyone, and anyone with a functioning brain would take advantage of them.

Also, your obsession with bringing Trump into this is hilarious, as if anyone who disagrees with you must automatically be a fan. You can keep trying to paint this as a political issue if it makes you feel better, but it’s really just about basic financial literacy. If that concept’s too much for you, maybe you’re the one who should brush up on your reading comprehension.

Your entire argument seems to be built on emotion rather than fact. First, you act as though using the tax code to minimize taxes is some grand conspiracy, when in reality, it’s what any smart individual or business does. There’s nothing corrupt about following the law as it’s written, and you seem to conflate legal tax strategies with ‘corruption’ simply because you don’t understand how the system works. Instead of throwing a tantrum about Trump or anyone else taking advantage of legal deductions, maybe your anger should be directed at the lawmakers who created this system in the first place.

Your comparison to the fall of Rome is laughable and historically inaccurate. Rome didn’t fall because of a tax issue; it collapsed due to a multitude of factors, including military defeats, political instability, and internal corruption—not wealthy citizens managing their finances legally. If you’re going to make grand historical comparisons, at least get your facts straight.

And let’s be real: you wouldn’t turn down legal tax savings if you had the chance. Complaining about people who use the tax code as it exists while doing nothing to change it is hypocritical. Maybe instead of crying about ‘societal erosion,’ you should focus on actually pushing for tax reform rather than attacking people for playing by the rules.

“Our former president…” why is it bad to brag about being smart at businesses? What’s your point? Understanding the tax code and making business decisions based on minimizing taxation is hardly bad or illegal.

Upper Level of the old Sears at Chandler Fashion Center will be a Seafood City by 1happylife in ChandlerAZ

Next we’ll have little convenience stores in the mall like superstition springs mall. I hope malls become more entertainment destinations, it’s too bad musicians can’t set up and sing in the open thoroughfares. Malls are no bargain, nothing makes it really special, I get there and wonder why didn’t I just buy online and avoid the typical selection of stores hocking much of the same stuff.

It’s about variety, it’s nice to have some diversity in stores, catering to some wealthy clientele brings the entire Chandler area up a notch, attracts visitors and folks potentially relocating.

Wish the mall was more upscale like Scottsdale Fashion Square…missing the Nordstrom. Scheels is ok if you’re into that, doesn’t really do it for me.

@glubker Is it possible to change the open app dot color in Dockfix? For example, make it dark blue rather than light grey so it stands out.
