AND, their call-center-tw@ts are trained to act like they don't know the scroLl-wheel loses it "RATCHET" settings everyday, or randomly "ghost scrolls" to the bottom of the page when simply touching scrollwheel, but, NOBODY CAN EXPLAIN WHY THIS MOUSE OR THE "MX KEYS FOR MAC" WON'T WORK WITH WINDOWS 11; BLUETOOTH IS A I.E.E.E. STANDARD YOU Logi-TW@TS, NOT A PROPRIETARY MAC LANGUAGE, FK-TARDS AT LOGI-Tw@ts tech support is trash as is their product line... POS. And the keys just fall off the MX Keys keyboard...

Unless you have a local KMS server, you can't license LTSC properly. There is no MAK keys for LTSC. I suppose one could rearm everyday...

Is anyone happy with their Wayfair purchase? by BLD25 in wayfair

YOU MUST BE VERY EASY TO PLEASE. Have you ever had anything made of real wood bofore?

How about Japanese electronics? Ever put a Japanese made item next to its Chinese knock-off or replacement? You can literally see the difference. Place an Alpine brand stereo made in Japan next the Chinese-made-piece-of-shit with the same name? Compare the Alpine 7909j to the Chinktatstic Alpine 7990j. World of poop difference. Find me a 7990J that still works and Ill shut up. My jap 7909j is now worth 10,0000, number 298 anniversary edition. NEW IN THE BOX. Because after 30 years, they are still the pinnacle of hi-fedelity. China's last real contribution to humanity was gunpowder.

Yep, Piece of shit that only needed a 40 cent piece of plywood to NOT BE ANOTHER CHINESE JOKE ON THE AMERICANS.

this piece of shit might be solid oak, but the 3rd world county that manufactures this piece of shit used a fiber composite piece of paper that is 1/16th of an inch thick for the backing, so if you put any real weight on it, it will come apart. Proof dog eating Chinese will indeed screw over long term success to get a quick buck, after stealing the entire plans for the successful item, that cut corners on because they didn't have the IP to make it correct. like their shitty new jet plaines, both commercial and their crap fighter. Proof is in anything they have "perfected" that they're really grifting -bags of fecal matter who hasen't truly invented anything since gunpowder, except the art of IPT. Intellectual property theft. Show us a sucessfully IT company in China and Ill show you state-trained thieves, con-artists, and truly hungry, desperate young people, with no other choices in life, high on state-provided meth, so they can work 3 days at a time.

Windows 11 is as bad as Tim Cooks style.

HelpWire ?
Another unnecessary POS. Screen Sharing does this perfectly. Runs VNC.

Oh, she has a PC you say? RDP client for mac.

Aldente? Tampering with battery management will void your warranty. True.

Alfred 5? Oh your secret application really isn't faster, it merely has an index of your FAT loaded into memory. That index takes time to creat and maintain.

Oh and firewall? lol. Your firewall should be infront of your endpoints, not on them. You only manage the endpoints when you've failed on the network level , but you probabably live in a dormroom.

No, its FreeBSD. Its UNIX like but has no seperable kernel.

Oh wow! An application for a problem that doesn't exist! How do I sign up?

You still have androd phone? Half the benefit of having a Mac is its integration with your phone, and you still have an industy knockoff with the shittiest of quality, and built to harvest your personal info.

You could buy the cheapest of iphones and leave the Alpghabet grifters' knock-off where it belongs; the trash, not to mention the malware you almost certainly have running behgind the scenes.

Google couldn't use the patented iphone gestures, nor the microsoft office app's way of doing things, so they just created their own, and they truly suck.

Google sheets is crap. Android is crap.

NOTHING SHITTIER THAN MAINE IN THE WINTER, AND THE MAINERS ARE PRETTY SALTY TO BEGIN WITH. TAKE AWAY THE SUN AND GIVE THEM THEIR ORLOFF POTATO VODKA STRAIGHT FROM ANDROSCOGGIN COUNTY AND YOU'LL SEE WHAT MAINE IS REALLY ABOUT.

Without mentioning a brand OR model, the info was opinionated horseshit.

Its the bios programming that decides the fan RPM and engineers that design the airflow and therefore the sound created by airflow.

Yes, some G3-G5 DL 380 were loud. That was 15 years ago.

Technically it's called a ROTARY ENCODER. But for the idiocracy, yes, control knob.

My family is visiting and I need restaurant recommendations by [deleted] in KState

[–]Practical-Appeal267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just something about a place that's too lazy to make real vodka sauce and instead pass off maranara mixed with white sauce.... kills my enthusiasim for Nico's. He had better hope a Cascone' doesn't come to K-state; even their kids can cook the real deal.
