Comment Re:InOtherNews: Real Apple chargers fail budget te (Score 1) 121

In my experience, those knockoff magsafe cables are completely useless. I had a Macbook power supply where the connector stopped working. I saw a bunch of cables on Amazon for $5 or so, much cheaper than getting a new power supply obviously.

I must have went through at least 5 of those knockoff replacement cables. Several different brands (though who knows if the different brands listed on Amazon all get their product from the same supplier.) None lasted more than a couple weeks.

I eventually broke down and bought another Apple charger. That one stopped working about 10 months later. At least it was in the warranty period.

I wonder how many of those blind spot accidents are due to people setting all 3 mirrors to cover essentially the same place - the back of the car.

If you set your mirrors wider, the blind spot almost completely disappears. Though it will probably be a bit disconcerting at first. If you want to look behind you, you'll have to actually look at the rear view mirror instead of the side mirrors.

Better safe than sorry, so don't eat chicken sandwiches on a Tuesday. You can't prove conclusively to me that eating chicken sandwiches on a Tuesday won't give your family cancer!

Why look at me, I never eat chicken sandwiches on a Tuesday, and I don't have cancer. I think.
