Yes it is amazing, EVEN for the lower end E series.
I bought one, and didn't like the keyboard. Send to a relative overseas. Months later the Mobo died a few weeks under warranty. Called HP and told i was overseas. They provided a local support number. ship by local post. upgraded new mobo. no charge.
This was a non-business $300ish laptop.
sadly, their shopping experience is abysmal like every other PC manufacturer :(
They ought to be annoying. so sites that do not track you for advertising can just add your cookie when you actively sign in, without the annoying popup on first visit, and receive more traffic because they are less-annoying.
Get real, most sites aren't going to do that when they can get away with putting a modal/banner up. It's the end-user that gets the brunt.
Most of the modals are full of dark patterns that basically force you to accept the cookies etc. unless you go through multiple different screens and checkboxes.
Let's be honest, the average user (even myself) will just click 'okay'. It doesn't help anyone and just causes annoyances for most users. If there was proper legislation to block the tracking full-stop then maybe it'd make a difference but in the end it's just a half-measure that causes frustration for both parties. The users that have to dismiss the prompts and websites that have to implement them.
hum. this is a telltale that you know very, very little about latin america.
There is actually 4 options. And you left the TOP TWO out.
1st is boleto. where you get a payment slip with the total bill split in monthly payments, with instructions to pay at the bank with special cases for late payment, etc.
The 2nd most used is to write pre-dated, pre-signed monthly checks. That work like an informal version of the boleto and gives more leverage to the seller.
Thanks for the info. Those two options, at least in Mexico (second largest country in latam) don't exist. I presume that on those countries where they do exist aren't as popular as traditional payment methods. What countries do you use those two options?
Parent is most probably talking about Brazil, where we do have both "boleto" and "cheque pré-datado". Boleto is very convenient and I wish it existed here in the US. Can you make another startup to introduce Boletos in the US?
on a related note, most antivirus companies get paid to mark things such as open source printer driver hacks that allow you to use refillable cartridges and what not. They will show up on scans with names like "malware.generic.12345"
I will only respect this project if it completely breaks alt+tab on windows and linux to make it useless like OSX, where you cannot go to a specific terminal window. ha!
sarcasm aside, I wish there was something that was the exact opposite. I tried to map cltr+c/v on OSX but it doesn't work on some applications, like firefox.
And using Switch application that fixes alt+tab to all windows (not programs) for some reason the default shortcut (Option-tab) is stolen on iterm2 which is exactly where I wanted it to work.
man, having to use OSX at the office is like having to use Windows with Outlook in the past. So silly.
Hear, hear. Alt-Tab is abysmal on Mac. I have no idea why people keep going on about Ctrl-C in the terminal, as if we haven't had terminals on both Windows and UNIX that copy-on-select for 20+ years. Broken Alt-Tab is far bigger impediment to my workflow.
I guess you have tried Karabiner-Elements[0] to help remap the keyboard? It's infuriating that it doesn't work properly in all the apps. Especially the browsers all seem to map their own keyboard shortcuts or hijack keys. If you use IntelliJ then that's a whole nother level of pain to try to map properly. I don't think I have ever succeeded in making arrow key movement inside text fields work consistently across all applications on a Mac.
Another app I think is a must is the BetterSnapTool[1]. It's the only app I've found that does a reasonable job of snapping like Windows. There are dozens of other ones, but none of them work quite properly. BetterSnapTool doesn't either, for example you can't snap a window from a half to a quarter and back up to a half again, then restore it back to the original size before you snapped. But you can snap it to half, full and original size. Most of the other tools on Mac don't remember the original size.
I also like uBar[2] to get rid of the dock and replace it with a more useful task bar. It's not as good as the one on Windows 10, but if you're forced to use a Mac for work then pretty much anything helps.
solid is dumb. and something that only makes sense for a comp sci from the 60s. everyone else who reads the project in simple english will see how dumb it is today.
in simple english: It is the dream project of whoever come up with cookies. basically cookies as first party data that you can download, upload, shared. All while having either the trouble of hosting a lot of infrastructure (just like the creators of email protocol thought everyone would do, ha!) or relaying all that info to a 3rd party like google or facebook. The nightmare scenario to everyone saying 3rd party cookies are bad.
permanent fix: learn to use your uBlock-Origin quick element picker.
Every time you open a site and it shows a popup for picking your cookies, just open uBlockOrigin from your browser toolbar, click the quick element picker (eye dropper icon), click the popup.
Done. Now you will never see the popup for that site (even if you do not save cookies, or clear your cookies), and you are technically guarantee to not accept any non-essential cookies ever (if they follow spec)
and for under 15" it is just a waste for 90% of people.
