Oh yeah, I'm not saying you did anything wrong I'm just telling people to protect themselves when they buy their products.
They make nice eink devices, they just have a tendency to implode fairly often so definitely have buyer protection for a couple of years if you're going to spend on one.
There's really nothing you can do to go after them either, I doubt they have enough of a presence in the US to make a small claim worthwhile.
I'd you bought yours with a credit card take a peek at your card agreement and see if you have any coverage for electronics purchases. You might have coverage for 1-2y for phones, tablets, computers, etc and could make a claim through your CC company.
I like the Scandinavian system of fines for breaking the law. They're scaled based on your annual income so a speeding ticket isn't just a fee for the wealthy.
Chromebooks are amazing for a certain type of low technical skill person. Older parents and grandparents in particular are exactly the kind of people that Chromebooks are for. There's zero technical support burden and if anything goes wrong a power wash solves it.
eBay buyer protection is amazing. If you're buying on eBay do yourself a favor and go find their policy document that describes the requirements for each level of condition that an item can be listed for sale under.
Sellers are often lazy (or scammy) and list items with greater damage than allowed for a given listing condition and think that writing things like "sold as is, no refunds!" in the body of the listing is some kind of get out of liability free move when listing an item as "Used" or "Refurbished ."
Unless you're buying an item that's specifically listed under "for parts or repair" the item must be 100% working with no loss of functionality when you receive it, otherwise you can just open a case and send it back for a 100% refund including shipping. This is a great way to hold a scammy seller over a barrel for either a fair partial refund for any missing functionality. Remember that any time you have to send an item back the seller has to eat the cost of shipping both ways plus any fees eBay charges them, so feel free to extort fair compensation if you're willing to keep such an item.
I'm still waiting for a viable competitor to the Galaxy Tab S line. Literally no one makes a flagship tablet that can compete with Samsung's build quality on those, they're pretty much the only ~11in OLED game in town too.
Their after sale support (both warranty and technical support) is absolutely abysmal. If you need support for one of their products you're best off dumping it "as is" on fleaBay and buying something else to replace it.
They've had screen breakage problems since about 2-3y ago for some reason. My OG Nova Air has survived about half a dozen short drops without any issue but more recent devices are just spontaneously breaking in people's bags or sitting on a counter.
I think they're dealing with some kind of design failure where they haven't accounted for display stresses in the newer thinner screens but they'll never, ever, admit to it. That would open them up to replacement liability and drive them out of business.
If you do buy one of their newer devices I strongly encourage you to buy a 2-3y aftermarket warranty with it otherwise it seems like you have a decent chance of just being shafted at random.
Every last one of them
Yup, they took the 90s era broadband grants and just pocketed them because they knew that the Bush era FCC wouldn't pursue the matter.
Well damn, that's a lot more self awareness than the DNC and Dems usually exhibit.
Surprise! The farms are for profit institutions run by private contractors!
In just one easy step you too can have zero accountability and a sky high number of sexual assault and other abuse claims!
Uhhhh, that just gives people more reason to be depressed. Just about every young person I know is on antidepressants because life is absolutely shitty in a capitalist dystopia.
I'd focus on KDE here, it sounds like the gui auto mount service is barfing for some reason. Does the drive mount normally when you boot to the CLI and try to mount it by hand?
Per the subreddit drama thread about this a couple of days ago the accuser has publicly recanted the accusation. I feel bad for this lady, she's getting absolutely shit on by the Internet for something that sounds like it didn't happen.
Because we already know that fash eat their own and it's not shocking news so it doesn't generate views or clicks.
On the flip side MAGAts won't consume coverage that's critical of their politics so they're not interested in coverage either.
Basically one half of the population doesn't care because these behaviors are expected and the other half refuses to acknowledge that they're capable of bad behavior.
Often tech jobs have 3 or more interviews over anywhere between a couple of weeks and a couple of months. It really depends on the company, I've seen a hire stretched out over like 3mo before while others happen over the course of a week.
Implement client side multicommunities
One of the features I really miss from the snu site is multireddits. It would be really handy to have a similar feature available in boost that can aggregate posts from multiple communities into a single feed view.
So anyway I started (psionic) blasting
Last floor of a very successful berserker run. The imp quest netted a ring of wealth +2 to go with the alchemy kit I found earlier on. After a couple of SoUs into the ring I was swimming in upgraded scrolls throughout the demon halls, then a summoning trap room spawned adjacent to the entrance.
Marjorie Taylor Greene Rages at 'Stupid People' She Has To Work With
At an event on Sunday, Greene said she was "sick and tired" of the "stupid people" she works with in Washington, D.C.—including Republicans.
Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, in his first remarks after being elected Wednesday afternoon, told Members of Congress that “Scripture” and “the Bible” are clear that they have been “ordained” by God.“I want to tell all my colleagues here what I told the Republicans in that room last n...
