  2. Google Pixel 5a 5G will only launch in Japan and the U.S.

    The Pixel 4a, 4a 5G, and 5 are the current Pixel lineup. Unfortunately to the pandemic, the 4a and 4a 5G got released later in the year as compared with the previous 3a and 3a XL. You should not feel bad about the upcoming 5a 5G. Buy a phone when you need it and don't try too hard to future proof. There will always be new phones.

  3. Facebook will use its HQ as a vaccination centre, says Sandberg

    Found the anti-vaxxer. I'm not even anti-vaxx, but it's funny how anyone who even dares to make a comment, even as a joke, gets labelled as an 'anti-vaxxer' instantly

  4. Can get ported to mobile. But I'm sure minimum system requirements for PC will be 16GB Ram and bla bla despite mobile-like graphics. Welcome to 2021.

  5. Two Monitors with 1 Laptop

    Depending on what it defaults to, you may need to go into the video properties and set it to "extend" the desktop to the external display, set default monitor and correct the positioning. All of this is built into Windows. No additional software required.

  6. I know right? Probably why this "will be done in participation with Ravenswood Family Health Network." Then, how about doing the vaccination there in the Health network? What is so special about the installations of Facebook?. Because this is vaccinations in mass. You have hotels, stadiums, malls, etc. being used for mass vaccination locations. But oh noes...Facebook offering part of their property for mass vaccinations.... /s Mass places * Stadiums * Parks and open places. * School and universities (those that are taking classes online): * Mall * Army bases Not mass places * Corporate offices, especially those with a reduced entry lobby. So I feel curious about the election of this place 🤷‍♂️ (and who decided that it was a good idea?) Good to know you are the expert on appropriate locations. Have you lent your knowledge and concerns to Facebook and the Ravenswood Family Health Network? BTW, the HQ campus is huge as is the interior (large open floor plans). If they do it in the parking lot as you "think" ... wouldn't that satisfy your "Parks and open places" Anyway ... who cares. As long as many people get easy and quick access to the vaccine.

  9. And yet, there are thinking people that maybe were already using Bing. Weird uh? Things outside of your narrow view of reality? I'm amazed that so many idiots cling to Google, even though there is a tiny fraction of a difference in results, and without Google sucking and selling everything you do. :)

  11. It's interesting that people have to be cajoled into using MS Search/Bing with points, especially when it's being manipulated just for the points.

  12. HMD unveils Nokia X, G, and C series phones alongside Lite Earbuds

    FTFY Like seriously, things looked promising at first when Nokia partnered with HMD after leaving Microsoft but it's just been going downhill fast. I read above that HMD's CEO was one of the people that helped run HTC into the ground so that explains a lot in my mind unfortunately

  18. With kb and mouse support on the console now, this could be a way to get it on there. The first thing I've seen people ask are about a console version. Getting something like this to work with a controller can be done but it will add to development time for sure.

  20. HP Envy 4520 Printing Issue

    I find it's more reliable printing to an IP address than a host name. First try to ping your printers IP address. Open a command prompt (start / (Type CMD) / click command prompt at the top. Then type ping (the Ip) .. my guess you should be able to ping it. If the reply of the ip address you typed in looks like this, then it can talk to the printer. (192.168.1.1 was just an example) If you can ping it, type it in the address bar of your web browser to log into the web interface of your printer. Once there look around for network settings and set the IP address of that printer to static. (Since we will be printing to an IP address we don't want this number to change) then go to your printer properties click on the ports tab and click add port and standard "TCP/IP port." Then for the address type in your printers IP address (the IP in the photo is just an example) . Once you add that IP address, check it in the ports list to make that the default printer port. Then see if it prints.

  21. I still remember when the local MSFT guys told me (working at least 10000km far from Redmond) that the Ballmer commanded every MSFT employee to mandatory use Bing and if he sees anybody using google, personally he will fire that employee.

  23. Probably good PR, which is valuable to them. It's like how they ran a bunch of adverts saying they take privacy seriously, which were so hilariously false advertising, but it probably kept their name stuck in the minds of people that have accounts on that site to 'overlook' bad things in the press. Like this, people will see 'good guy facebook' rather than '###### facebook database breach leaks private information on 500m people'. All about perception

  24. On Android, they need to fix the issue where it randomly stops syncing images, sometimes for weeks. You have to open the app to get it to start again, or even force stop and launch to get it to go...and then you have to wait. Even looking at thumbnails basically takes so long, it might as well be forever in many cases. So many users have reported this problem with syncing, and it still isn't fixed years later.

Who the heck cares? We have a medical center here that is using part of the University campus, and the hospital, and the parking lots, and grass fields, and tents to vaccinate people. I do not see the problem.

    Found the anti-vaxxer. I'm not even anti-vaxx, but it's funny how anyone who even dares to make a comment, even as a joke, gets labelled as an 'anti-vaxxer' instantly; even when they never made an anti-vaxx comment. You should read his other posts in regards to this. Me? I have context. You? Not so much. He isn’t joking. Looking through their history I see someone who's a bit cynical of the current situation which I sympathise with. Never said anything actually criticising the vaccines. Then you are conveniently glossing over things.

    Without guest additions you should be able to click into the window and it captures the mouse. Then you can press a key (default = Right Ctrl) to release the mouse.

    At $350 I don't think anyone is going to consider this high-end. In my opinion $500 to $600 is the sweet spot for high-end/flagship prices. Anything more is just padding margins and overcharging.

  47. My Aorus X570 Elite is a disaster, Gigabyte will never see my money again. Must been a bad board I had very good luck with Gigabyte all way back in 386 days another good brand is MSI My only experience with Gigabyte is I got a deal on a GA-990FXA-UD3 R5 (rev. 1.0) board. No failures but it got ONE minor BIOS update and that was all. Probably never again... Don't buy SuperMicro unless you want be spied on by the CCP: https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2021-supermicro/" rel="external nofollow">https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2021-supermicro/ Yet another rubbish Bloomberg article aimed directly at Supermicro...just like their "spy chip" story a few years ago (the same two editors as well).
