I have this "MX Anywhere 3" mouse and the scrolling wheel has electronically adjustable resistance (can be toggled completely off and then the wheel says wheee).
Pretty damn nice and convenient.

You've got bigger problems if you boot so many times per week that that's a real problem.
Our nissan leaf '16 has heat pump and it's the fastest-heating car we've ever owned. The interior is warm much faster than with an direct-mains additional heater (800-1600W, car models) or my volvo with a gas-fueled eber heater (though that one is not direct internal air but for the engine). This is in temperatures of 5c to -10C. Unfortunately the battery on the leaf is only 30kWh so the range drops off steeply below -10c, though still enough for the town rides.
What an absolute fucking abomination the taskbar is right now. Absolutely unusable on anything close to widescreen. It's just so stupid on 16:9 and 21:9 screens.
Look, with the speed of innovation in the plastics recycling, pointing at P&T eposode is like searching for car design tips in Popular Mechanics from 1934.
> corporations should be able to manage their employees as they see fit
Say what? Where that comes from? They're vastly overpowered with what comes to almost any single person. It doesn't make sense that they should be able to do absolutely anything "as they see fit". This doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
You're in the middle of the pandemic and your burndown charts are slightly down?
This is really not WFH situation. So many people have to do extra things on top of the WFH.
If anything things going relatively well only shows the power of WFH.
botcode: violence (???)
Is the Index usable/reasonable to use as a desktop monitor(s) replacement? I mean to do code/dev work, not just games
What have you personally done for the childbirth mortality that kills women disproportionately? Will you wave it off as it doesn't suit the color of your straw?
Sometimes I wonder why I visit
This is retarded. How much US rich end up paying for special living arrangements because they can't live along with people that don't have anything to lose? How much do you pay for private schools because you can't go into same one that general public goes to? How much property value inflates because you *need* to keep certain population out of it? This goes on and on and on. You don't get to live with all that money that you get, you lose it on all the shit that keeps you separated from people that don't have it. Why?
I'm pretty sure that locking problem is from some older release of VS that you might still have installed. I certainly had it for a period of time (at least enough to warrant installing UnLocker), but it did go away. I do C# for a living so a lot of reruns etc.
I recommend you install UnLocker, take a note of which program is actually locking that file (if it gives the actual PID). Then in Task Manager -> Details select the "Image path name" column to be shown and seek if that's some older msbuild version that you can uninstall / otherwise remove. Alternative is to reinstall windows + only latest versions of stuff, but that's a bit of a kill. VS repair install in newer ones is also relatively good; however I've killed my machine with a VS2017 install/reinstall cycle..
Overall I've seen VS become better and better over the time. I guess VS Code is coming fast behind, but they're in the 80 portion of the 80/20 still.
That's like saying letting Hawking die at the young age would've made human race a tiny bit fitter. We all have our blind spots and for fucks sake, when you get a cancer diagnose it's just absolute panic. Get some humanity in you.
40ms is ~standard human reaction time (f.ex how fast professional photographer can press the shutter when situation hits).
If you do 180 in 1 sec with 3.6deg granularity (50fps), you see every snapshot for 20ms. I can attest that with 144Hz screen doing 180'ies looks much smoother than on 60Hz.
They need saturation and the scooters are not cheap. Also they need to report / be collected for charging and that's not the cheapest thing ever. I'm sure a lot of that money is hardware investment too (lambo for the CEO etc.)
The primary function of the design engineer is to make things difficult for the fabricator and impossible for the serviceman.
