Afaik that's how the corporate apps stuff works, I byod (I really should have a second phone) and the work stuff is totally on its own, uses a different keyboard, opens a different browser uses a different authenticator etc.

First computer I built had a BFG 7600gt with the first upgrade I ever did was a BFG 8800gt

Miss BFG and EVGA for nvidia cards.

The have active electronics in them so that if any non-apple right angle connectors are used it limits them to usb 1.0 speeds and 5v 0.5A power delivery. It's for your safety.

Enough people mention it that I've jumped over to helix

I still have my Sony Eriksson W580i, also thought it was the coolest thing.

Still works and holds a charge, pulled photos off of the memory card recently, cameras have gotten a lot better... Had the red one, have had some very brightly colored phones, my favourite being the bright yellow Nokia Lumia 1020

Had an amazing camera on it.

While I definitely recall seeing a bunch, was usually a safe the As/Nz type plugs were available.

Actually thinking back on it (been like a decade now), I recall a lot of them looking like the plug on the left where NA/EU style ungrounded plugs would work in the top one, 3 blade only for grounded equipment.

HDR works out of the box with nvidia in plasma. For some reason I couldn't get it to do that in a fresh arch install so giving it a spin for my desktop machine.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northeast_blackout_of_2003

The blackout's proximate cause was a software bug in the alarm system at the control room of FirstEnergy, which rendered operators unaware of the need to redistribute load after overloaded transmission lines drooped into foliage. What should have been a manageable local blackout cascaded into the collapse of much of the Northeast regional electricity distribution system.

Not a plant but another example of something that should have been small causing massive outages. From what I know talking to people who've worked for the province's grid operator, it's a massive job to keep everything going.

I sold my pledges off 9 years ago, the reason I even made a reddit account in the first place. Was getting disillusioned with it back then and I was super excited when I initially backed it, had a decent amount of ships in the hangar at the time, but felt like I was only ever going to see them in the hangar

Blog post if interested

Was a thing when I took geo in first year, rock test (and the professor) was kinda a legend within engineering.

xFire was great, didn't know the whole yahoo thing

Kinda liked the separate applications for voice and chat, we used ventrilo over teamspeak for reasons I don't recall but all of that is just ancient history at this point (was using that like literally 20 years ago)
