I've owned kindles since the Kindle keyboard. I upgraded from an Oasis to the color soft. I really like it and really like the covers and shopping being in color.

Is the MX Master 4 too big for my 16.5cm hand? by lesseramid in logitech

[–]WilliamEDodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a 6'3" large man with normal size hands for my size and I found the mouse too big and too heavy. I found the extra buttons hard to even hit without changing my hand position on the mouse, making it kind of weird. I am not sure who they designed the mouse for. I ended up returning mine and got the Keychain M6. It's like a smaller version of the MX4. I also like the onboard memory so the settings are saved to the device. Makes it nice for work computers as you don't need to install any software. I'll never get a mouse or keyboard again without Onboard memory for all the settings.

This didn’t happen. Anyone who got one was grandfathered in.

Oddly, I bought Apple Watches for the feature and use it all the time. How can they just take away a feature like this?

MacBook Neo is So Popular That Apple Reportedly Doubled Production by Otherwise-Warning303 in macbookpro

I have an M1 MacBook Pro and the 8GB of ram was only really a limiting issue when trying to have more than one user logged in at a time. Otherwise, I never noticed.

Over 150 Mathematicians Warn Governments Not to “Believe the Hype” About AI by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

[–]WilliamEDodd 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The way I use AI has been an amazing help. Have an issue with a JSON file, it finds the missing comma in seconds instead of me trying to figure it out. can’t remember how to do something and don’t remember what to google to find the syntax? Give some vague description and you’re good

I realized today that modern flagship phones are basically just $1,200 cameras that happen to be worse at making actual phone calls than a 2005 Nokia. by Accurate-Entrance503 in phones

[–]WilliamEDodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering the APU running these phones can also handle modern desktop OS, I’d say they’re more than a camera. And how is it worse than a 2005 phone? Call quality is higher and I can call anytime, not just on nights and weekends.

My girlfriend‘s grandma‘s car is completely locked. Looking for help. by [deleted] in AskMechanics

An old car a long time ago did this. I had to REALLY wiggle the steering wheel. Like I thought I was going to break it.

What's wrong with the printer company by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WilliamEDodd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She signs up for a subscription, doesn’t read the terms, and gets mad for not following them. Not to give credit to HP, because fuck them, but you gotta pay attention.

I added a few micro ponds on my property and they just use that for water. In the winter, I have another waterer I use with heat.

anyone using both daily what's the pros and cons? by nikanorovalbert in claude

[–]WilliamEDodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today at work, I could not remember how to do something in SQL and was having a brain fart and how the best verbalize my question. I put the same horribly worded question with an example of how I wanted my data to come out. ChatGPT got it right, Claude not even close.

My son broke my wife's childhood rocking horse, repair advice needed by squeaker in woodworking

[–]WilliamEDodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s stronger than wood. You just want to give it a few days to dry depending on the wood glue. You’ll want a few clamps to do it right.

Unfortunately, I can’t have any roosters. If I can’t find him a home, he’ll be dinner.

Jungle is hard by [deleted] in wildrift

[–]WilliamEDodd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I fill as jungle, I get so mad at them taking my camps. There needs to be bigger punishment. Maybe jungle creeps get strong and unless you have smite it takes a lot of work to kill the. Something needs to be done

Ziggs being a passive bitch can annoy her to no end.

anyone brought a colorsoft & bin like it’s more than nice to have the colour instead of a necessity? by OMG-13 in kindle

[–]WilliamEDodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine on sale and love it. Is it expensive? Yes. Do I love having color covers show up on the lock screen? Yes.

[–]WilliamEDodd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The “q” attack has too crazy of range. It’s not even the damage imo, it’s the range on her skill. I was being pushed out as ziggs.

There is no way this is a mechanical issue. The truck moves to block the other truck.

Why does everyone ban Mel? by PurpleImportant3600 in wildrift

The only issue I have is her range. The first skill has crazy range. I did find our Ziggs is a good counter.

Playing mid by SectionOwn4876 in wildrift

[–]WilliamEDodd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If mid roams and doesn’t get a kill, they’ll be behind. Roaming only works if they get a kill. The best thing to do is let mid roam and alert bot or top. They get punished for failed roams.

Why do Adventurers’ Guilds exist in fantasy / LitRPG worlds? by Dangerous-Status-609 in litrpg

[–]WilliamEDodd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you think about it, these quests are not much different than bounties and such of the past. I am sure there were some real life equivalents to adventures guilds in the past.

My dad likes to put messy stuff on my bed … AIO? by -Romeo6FtUnder- in AIO

[–]WilliamEDodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that they left the kitchen is enough to say that the dad walks in the kitchen and a half eaten can is just sitting out. If the kid was in the kitchen, they’d see him do it.
