Can you support your claims? I’ve worked with Intune, Jamf, MaaS360, Citrix, and Workspace ONE and none of them could read texts, emails or browser history.

I’d be very interested to learn more about how they can access this information through MDM. We always did it through either the mobile carrier or the admin console for whatever the office/mail suite that was deployed.

LilB0kChoy,

I regret staying in my first job too long thinking I’d advance internally.

LilB0kChoy,

I’ve lived in Minnesota for decades and I’ve never had an ICE not start in the winter.

That said, the cold weather performance isn’t enough to stop me from getting an EV. The same general rules apply for all vehicles in cold weather climates, which is to always have an emergency kit just in case.

There was a time though when I commuted 35 miles one way to work and the charging parking spots were always full when I got there. Range loss would worry me a bit there but in that case I’d buy a hybrid and plan for full EV on the next go round.

LilB0kChoy,

Sorry to hear that! You might benefit from a battery tender or one of those jump starter devices like the Halo.

I had to jump my mother in law last week and we might get her one as a birthday present. Her situation wasn’t directly cold related though, her negative terminal was super corroded. Ended up needing a battery and the terminal cable replaced.

LilB0kChoy,

Never. I have had some hard starts when I’ve owned older cars but I’ve never had it not start.

My biggest issue was actually my first car with the headlights. It didn’t chime to remind you they were on and those didn’t turn off automatically. I had to tape a reminder to turn them off on the steering wheel because I killed the battery a couple times.

Still, winter performance wouldn’t stop me from getting an EV. It’s probably be a bonus because when it’s super cold out who wants to go anywhere? Good excuse to stay home.

LilB0kChoy,

I can only imagine. You guys get that lake effect cold and wind. I’ve seen it a little in Duluth, I can only imagine what it’s like in a city nicknamed the “Windy City”.

LilB0kChoy,

I was looking for a grinder a while back and wanted a burr grinder but wasn’t looking to break the bank. I was recommended, and ultimately bought, a Timemore C2.

It’s been great! I tend to grind a couple weeks worth at a time and it’s not tiring to use at all. It washes up easy and you can adjust the grind based on application. I go more coarse in the summer when grinding for cold brew for my wife.

I’m not in the coffee scene much so I don’t know their reputation, as always ymmv.

LilB0kChoy,

Aren’t they holding the primary in NH still?

The article seems a little confusing but my takeaway was that Biden opted not to be put on the ballot but it’s expected he’ll still win through a write-in campaign.

I don’t think there’s another Democratic candidate who has a more likely chance of winning the general election.

LilB0kChoy,

So the national party committee wants the NH primary to be scheduled later, which is in conflict with the state law, am I understanding that correctly?

Because of the above the national committee is stating they won’t consider their voting results and because of this the NH primary effectively doesn’t matter?

If that’s the case then that is some bullshit.

LilB0kChoy,

Where we live is between $40-$50 every two months for trash and recycling for most services.

LilB0kChoy,

Hey @doctordevice and I also have that cat tree! We should start a club because it seems popular with the humans and the cats!

LilB0kChoy,

That’s what most of the political articles posted seem to be. It’s always one of three things:

  • Biden way ahead in polls over Trump
  • Trump way ahead in polls over Biden
  • All president candidates suck, do t even bother voting

It feels like one big disinformation machine.

LilB0kChoy,

They do! We live right by a river and there’s a road down below so the get to watch a variety of things!

LilB0kChoy,

It’s a really good tower! We got it for our cat Shadow, who passed in August, and he didn’t use it much. It’s nice to see how much they like it!

LilB0kChoy,

There are a large number of unscented aftershaves out there as well as other products options like an alum block.

When I’m finished shaving my routine is:

  • alum block
  • aftershave balm
  • cologne

I have aftershaves and colognes that compliment each other or are the same scent for both. I also have an unscented balm for colognes I couldn’t find a good compliment to.

Scents I use are ones I like because I’m wearing it for me, not others.

LilB0kChoy,

Likely he hadn’t opened his credit card to that kind of spend on another continent, or he had an Amex which tends to work poorly in many different places in Europe.

You’re wrong. The card reader was not working, the ATM had too low of a limit and the bank was closed. When they brought in a new card reader he was able to pay.

I’m also sure he could’ve gotten an invoice as well but likely just wanted it sorted out directly.

If you can’t pay the tax directly you have 10 days to make payment but the item is held until that payment is made. Since it was bound for an auction that wouldn’t work in this case. Not to mention payment was attempted and the issue was on the side of the customs office.

LilB0kChoy,

Thank you! We lost our old man cat in August and we finally felt ready to have cats in the house again. tThey are so precious!

This is Shadow, our 16 year old cat we lost in August.

LilB0kChoy,

They truly are! We lost our 16 year old cat Shadow in August and kittens are definitely a different energy!

LilB0kChoy,

Ha! Jokes on them then because I’d argue the better response is to just legalize and regulate it. That way those who want drugs can be sure to get them without dangerous additives.

LilB0kChoy,

I’m not against them enforcing it, just that their enforcement makes my experience worse. I’m not negatively impacted by this problem they’re trying to fix until their fixes make my experience worse.

I also think it’s naive to believe there’s no financial motivation and they’re only doing it because it’s unfair to their paying members.

Your gym analogy is also a false equivalence. The Costco membership gets you their product guarantee/return policy and the opportunity to purchase things at a cheaper price than elsewhere. Joe Schmo letting his neighbor use his membership doesn’t hurt me in any way, it only hurts Costco.

What I’m saying is actually similar to what has happened, and is happening, in media regarding DRM and various attempts to secure content.

LilB0kChoy,

You’re only saying that because they’re insulating you from the effect of this happening. If Costco had to raise rates because people were sharing memberships and members didn’t want that enforced, you’d complain about that too.

I would not. If the new rates meant I’d pay more for a membership than I’d save over the course of a year I’d just not renew.

Again, it’s odd to me that you’re complaining about them protecting the very benefits that you’re paying for which others are not.

They are not protecting my benefits, they are protecting their revenue stream. I’m not sure why you and so many others don’t understand that companies don’t exist to provide something** for you**. They exist to extract a profit from you.

The gym analogy isn’t a false equivalence.

We’ll have to agree to disagree on this and probably the whole situation in general because you’ve just re-stated the same points as in your first reply to me. You may not like my reasoning but it’s not wrong. The only reason I have a Costco membership is because it is currently cheaper for me to get a few items there than it is to get them elsewhere, but just barely. When it’s no longer financially beneficial to me to have a membership, or if they create a shopping experience so unpleasant that it outweighs the nominal savings we get from shopping there we will end our membership.

If that time ever comes and if the family members who have memberships now still do, then I’ll just have them buy for me or I’ll go as a “guest”. The only difference is the inconvenience of not being able to go whenever it’s convenient for me or waiting until we absolutely need something, because I’d have to go on someone else’s schedule.

Just because you can’t understand a logical cost/benefit rationale doesn’t make it wrong. I’m not under the same illusion as you seem to be that Costco, or any business or corporation, has my best interests at heart. This is ultimately about their revenue stream; you can tell yourself otherwise but you’re a fool if you think that’s not a driving factor.

LilB0kChoy,

You really don’t, though. I was not complaining, I was sharing an opinion that you seem to have taken very personally. It’s not my job to police who shops at Costco, you seem to think it is yours. I can only imagine how exhausting it is being you, worried about what everyone else is doing and who’s breaking the rules.

I do not care if Costco stops people from using memberships that aren’t theirs except in the context of my experience shopping there. If the measures they take make my experience worse, then I will no longer take my business there.

There’s no point continuing on with you, it’s clear that you feel your perspective is the only one that’s valid. I don’t bang my head against a brick wall for the same reason I’m done engaging with you, it’s a fruitless endeavor only serves to give me a bad experience.
