Used LastPass for many years. Switching to 1Password after all the shenanigans LastPass has been up to. Not a trustworthy company, especially for someone involved in something as crucial as securely storing passwords.

Teslas have one of the worst build qualities. They're mostly hype.

Maybe those shoes aren't designed for your feet. I've felt the same with some high-end shoes, the same which fit perfectly for my friend. The only thing we can compare are build quality (and the material used) and whether they perform the function they're intended for well. The shoes had a...

Like a software's Terms of Use, we'll just have a Terms of Ordering in all the menus at restaurants. Most restaurants who have service charge already mention it. Now they'll just be more explicit to be on the safer side.

How many loans that have been written off in the past have actually been recovered? I think if we could dig up the history of such cases, we can know whether writing off such huge loans is really just an accounting standard or yet another way to let go of rich and influential loan defaulters.

Almost 80% of my sports and training gear is from Decathlon. They're all worth it. I agree that some products have QC issues, but at the price they go for they're still value for money.

Haha, @avi did you copy the previous book lists from the Broke Bibliophiles fb group? And then change the affiliate I'd? That guy is naturally pissed after finding about it.

So, there's more to this than what the messaging would have us believe. Read as is, it would imply we'll be punished for just viewing the website hosting the torrent.

Like remap Fn to Ctrl and vice-versa? That's a good idea. I'll look into it.

The Dell showroom guy told me otherwise. And I needed a laptop ASAP. How's the Dell Vostro?

HP models aren't that great. I checked all of them. Dell Inspiron series was the next best bet, but those have average build quality at best, and the keyboard/touchpad creaks, even in high-end models. Dell Latitude series I kind of liked from online reviews, but that can't be bought by...
