Those hinges get harder to move over time which puts increasing stress on the plastic. The correct repair is to install new hinges (both of them) and possibly replace the bottom plastic as well. Ten years ago this was a couple hours of labor plus parts, which worked out to about $300. It’s a tedious process because you end up having to move all the internal components to the new bottom plastic, but it can be done.

I suspect that you already have one cable that will charge all five devices. The device pulls the necessary current, the cord does not push current into the device. This means your most capable charger should charge all of the devices.

We can help on a very small scale by planting a variety of native plants and not using pesticide or herbicide. I don’t know much about the risks of fertilizer on a small scale, but it’s generally not needed for native plants anyways.

Yes, I also want smaller phones. Even my “regular” sized phone doesn’t fit into running shorts phone pockets unless I remove the case, but even then it’s a tight fit.

The latest pixel pro is available in both the regular size and the XL. In previous models the pro was only available as the XL.

Any time a video is known by its title instead of a description, it’s better not to seek it out.

Reminder that Firefox on mobile also has ublock origin and other add ons that improve the experience.

Zero Google AI in chat gpt, mission accomplished I guess?

I haven’t in over a decade. I think I’m up to eight different word filters trying to stop news stories about this from showing up on my feed. If they didn’t have such a stupid name I could just block the term meta.

If you have two cars, one EV and one ICE is a great option. I do recommend whoever is more enthusiastic about EVs get the first one, though.

Awesome, thank you for this!

I’m no encryption expert, but wouldn’t a backdoor of any kind be inevitably exploited by a malicious actor?

Linux expects you to know what the fuck you’re doing.

I’ve heard people claim Mint is easy enough for non technical users (grandma, etc.), but I think that’s with the caveat that they will have someone to support the machine.

Black is the new beige.

There shouldn’t be worms in the poop of a healthy dog. This analogy just keeps getting better and more accurate.

One nice spring morning I had my windows open. I smelled something awful and started looking around for where the dog had ruined the carpet. Nope, it was just the neighbor’s Bradford pear in full bloom. Such a disgusting scent.

Unless it’s a Bradford pear.

Woosh, hopefully?

I was so excited to suggest Weawow because it matches every one of your requirements. I really like being able to choose from all the different widgets with slightly different info depending on what you’re most interested in.

I wonder how much of this can be attributed to the 9 pro being a more normal size? Better camera, no gimmicky curved edge, and still fits in a pocket.
