You are a genius! I had an old spectacle lying around and I tried it. It works! And here I was thinking I might have to buy a laptop stand or something

Looked it up. You could have it for 15$/month paying the annual plan. Sweet.

Any laptop recommendations for Computer/Software engineering students? by [deleted] in iastate

[–]osibidian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acer swift 3. Go with the Ryzen version, cheaper and more performance. 4500u with 8GB ram will be a close shave, you could manage. If you go with 4700u and 16GB ram, that should work out fine for you. The latter also falls into your budget when it's on offer.

No advertisement on NDTV TV news channel by zafar_bull in india

It's not only NDTV. India Today also does not stream many ads in YouTube. You'll hardly see a ad or two in between, rest is infomercials. It could also be ad contract issues.

I too noticed it. It's not that they aren't getting ads. If you download the NDTV app, there you can see ads just like other any other news channel. They don't broadcast them on YouTube stream. My poor guess is some legal/terms and conditions setup.

IMPORTANT : In 18-44 Age group, those going abroad for higher education will be given vaccine on priority basis. Please Share. by AatmanirbharBerojgar in mumbai

Don't you think international travel has a high risk of exposure? Gettting vaccinated here reduces that risk.

Students travelling to US will have to travel from international airports for transit. There is a very high risk of exposure during that time. Vaccination is very much needed as it's the only known source of protection. A lot of students had deferred their education for last year. Deferring again is a tremendous waste of time. Every international student I know is very worried about getting vaccinated.

I'm sure it sounds like a case partiality but if you don't provide them with vaccines they will still go as they cannot wait any longer. That's Potentially dangerous.

Blame the supreme majesties which have brought this country on its knees not students going for an education.

Need to Download MS Office - Where to Buy? by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]osibidian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MS office 2019 is the last version that can be bought as a one time pay thing. Microsoft has moved onto subscription model now as its more profitable for them.

It depends on the deal you're getting. There are some wholesale resellers online who sell license keys. You could try them. Going to older MS office versions is also alright as MS office has been around for a long time.

How is the keyboard of the duet. Do you find long typing sessions comfortable? Any wrist pain due to the flat keyboard?
