Hope this change comes sooner. My 2025 BMW X5 got AC control as secondary touchscreen menu while giving prev/next song a dedicated button. Every time I turn on/off AC, I would wonder what the industry designer was thinking about when working on this? That made me use voice control to toggle the A/C, which I have to say their voice recognition is pretty decent, got it right 90% of time except when my toddlers are in the back seat mimicking me.

Have fond memory of LAN party. My childhood city had a lot of net cafes, some big ones have 3 floors with each floor about 100 people playing.

During new year holidays, I could spent 10+ hours everyday with my two uncles playing CS 1.5 there, having meals at our computer desks. The contrast between super cold outdoor (-20 degree Celsius) and cozy warmth indoor provides extra sense of satisfaction.

My younger uncle was so good at it that we could hear one frustrated player from another side of the floor shouting at the game server manger asking to kick my uncle’s player out.

Their ATMs are pretty handy. It does not require a physical card - you can just tap your phone on the ATM to withdraw cash. Also there’s lots of ATM locations in north California which is pretty convenient if you happened to need cash.

One thing I do not understand though is that when deposit via their mobile app, they ask you to write something like “Used for Wells Fargo mobile deposit” on the check, which is a pain, not sure how other banks do it.

sounds like counter strike to me.

My small LLC is affected by this. Anyone know a good alternative? I'm exploring creating a legacy business plan bank account like Wells Fargo, looks like they waive the monthly fee with $500 min deposit, which is the smallest among the big name banks.

I used to live on a steep hillside of San Francisco and the car noise was so bad. Car engines were so loud when they go uphill.

After that, I became so cautious of the noise issue that whenever I’m looking for a place to live, I look out for steep hill, train tracks, police station, hospitals, main street (the ones with double yellow lines), highway, airport, air plane ascending and descending routes.

something like storing a blog text for thousand years, especially after the author passed away where the blog could not be maintained by the author.

Are serious miners using consumer grade graphic card for mining today? I thought they’d customize their own GPU solution and that the used GPUs because of bubble burst would not be usable for consumers.

Apple should make the edges less sharp as well. I just got the 13 inch M1 Pro, it's too sharp. The 2014-2015 Pro case is just perfect.
