We use a tool that interfaces outlook to Gmail that is provided by Google, one ticket we see over and over again from remote workers is my email is slow to sync. Most of the time they are working out of their homes. The solution in many cases is to disable ipv6. I'm pretty sure Google and Microsoft have figured out ipv6, but shitty isp implementations seem to be a major drawback

I completely agree, I currently have a 2012 Rav4. I went on a flight and had to rent a car, so I rented a 2019 Rav4. The new auto assist features made driving the car for the first few miles extremely dangerous for me. After the "Lane change" assist steered me back into my original lane without me commanding it, I pulled over at the next rest stop and spent 10 minutes turning off every feature I could. There is one feature that resets its self every time you start the car however, and that is the pedestrian collision detection. Some might think that this is a good thing, however, I do not want my car breaking for me at unexpected times because it thinks there is something in the road. As a side note, even doing simple things like adjusting the AC or radio requires way too many button clicks on the "Ipad" like display, while on my old model, I could just spin a dial or push one button.

In most cases removing the harddrive will not void the warranty because its a CRU part (Customer replaceable unit). There are SOME models that this would void your warranty on but on these models you usually have to remove the motherboard to access the harddrive...

Agreed! BTW are Slashdot beta sucks posts the new "First!" posts?

What prevents someone for paying for a 1-3 month subscription upfront to their account and then putting more bitcoins in whenever the need comes up? IPpreadtor has been doing this for a while now and it seems to be working for them

I find this all rather symbolic. The Obama administration giving the go ahead to kill bald eagles the national bird of the USA

Maybe I will be able to download it in about 3 months

ya, i mis-read the title on the first pass...

So does this mean the liberals in the union finally realize the only way to stop a bad man with a gun is a good man with a gun? Does this mean Obama will stop his anti-second amendment agenda now? Did not think so....

So as a dell tech i can't wait to deal with this issue and all the smart-ass comments people are gonna give me....

Can you imagine the EBT food stamp card system going down for a few days and millions could not get their free food?

Actually laptop video cards have become much more upgradeable then in the past due to Mobile PCI Express Modules. With that said, you still only see that slot on high end machines such as Dell precision workstation m6600/m4600 or their higher end alien ware systems.

Exactly right, the only way the changes in this book could be implemented is by force. Now, what force would that be? Well, government of course. With that said, i will just leave these two definitions here.... Socialism play /solzm/ is an economic system characterized by social ownership or control of the means of production and cooperative management of the economy,[1] and a political philosophy advocating such a system Communism is hypothetical classless, moneyless, stateless social order structured upon common ownership of the means of production, as well as a social, political and economic ideology that aims at the establishment of this social order. I'm so glade that Slashdot is promoting books for political hacks....
