It will take up space and create a spaghetti mess in a meeting room as well as causing some headaches and annoyances.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's revealed that it's ticketmaster or the developers of their platform that's behind the bots just to line their pockets. It woukd be easy to create a backdoor for your bot to grab tickets before start of sales if you have developed the system.

TFS: "includes ... financial details".

One reason for quarterly reporting is that it gives greater transparency and insight into how a business actually works. Many businesses are seasonal. Most obviously, virtually all retail has its best quarter at the end of the calendar year. But many other types of businesses have key cycles each year that are tied to, for example, the buying habits of their largest customers. Suppliers matter, too; if farms have a bad quarter due to weather or other factors, for example, you're going to want to watch how that impacts food producers somewhere down the line.

You're missing that both a bleed air system AND poor maintenance are required for this problem to manifest.

Presumably the other planes with a bleed air system are getting better maintenance, so haven't been a problem. No idea how the 787's maintenance is, but since it doesn't have a bleed air system, the problem of dangerously contaminated cabin air hasn't manifested.

More specifically, this happens when engine oil or hydraulic fluid leak into the engine while bleed air is being drawn.

Replaced the head twice and the handle once!!

Bluetooth keyboards and mice are annoying when you have multiple devices. I have a 2.4 GHz USB dongle for mine that's plugged in to my Thunderbolt Display. Then whichever of my couple of laptops or my desktop is connected to the display gets the mouse and keyboard.

Are you saying that you need a special USB-C port to plug in a USB-A cable + USB-C adapter to use a USB 2 device?

The Click of Death consumed many a Zip disc.

because stopping to charge on the occasion that you are driving a longer drive just isn't that big of a deal. If I had to do it weekly that would be somewhat inconvenient but even with all the road trips I go on I have to stop for a charge less than once a month.

They create a longer leverage on the port of your device which may cause damage to the ports of your computer.

When you move around between meetings you don't want to lug around a hub or an adapter just to get your wired headset or mouse working well.

The USB-C is also a lot more sensitive than USB-A, they wear out faster. Something I have observed at work and it doesn't matter what marketing says, the USB-C isn't as good from the resilience and wear perspective as the connectors it replaces.

The good thing with USB-C is that it's at least possible to insert two ways instead of one.

Adapters is often a good way to break your device because they offer a lot more leverage on a soldered connector.

If you limit social media to those you listed I agree, but there are some more specialized forums around that don't suffer from the flood of slop and they are alive, even though they have been pushed back by Facebook and some have died those that are left are fine.

Social media will just find new forms.

I love these retro stories from 2012.

What a blast from the past!
