Big tech in HCOL areas (Seattle, all of Cali, etc.) pay new grads about 100k to 150k base, with a hefty sign on bonus (anywhere from 20k to 50k). RSUs usually only vest about 5 to 10% of their total stock in the first year, but thats about 5k to 10k

Of course HCOL means this money is relatively less than it seems, but still a lot for new grads.

Considering october is the planned end of life for w10 I wouldn’t be surprised

I had a garmin vivomove hr. The idea behind it was pretty neat, but it was too annoying to keep charged.

Yea they’re pretty much the only brand still.

I liked my garmin vivomove, it was pretty nice despite some clunkiness (the one I bought was early on)

I’d like to try one, but I feel like I might end up not using it often or just not liking it

On a side note I wish hybrid smartwatches were still a thing. Most of the product lines are discontinued, but I liked the idea of it.

Airlines and enshittification, what’s new.

Happening right now with Southwest as well. In their infinite knowledge sw decided to remove what defined them: two free checked bags and cheap flights

Now there’s a worse option called basic which has a shittier cancellation policy, no checked bags, and is more expensive than the previous budget tier

This article is so weirdly written

One of his points is that a vhs player is easily fixable while a wifi router isn’t. These things aren’t even remotely the same. They don’t serve the same function, they don’t have the same complexity. Comparing their repairability makes no sense because they serve different functions. Just because I know how to repair a keyboard doesn’t mean I know how to fix a tv.

Most of his complaints are on the capitalization of modern technology, which is not a problem of innovation and knowledge, it’s an economics and political problem.

Yea, I have a couple more that I forget does what (I think a couple are for hiding youtube games and shorts and stuff), but it should just look like this in my filters.

I believe it was this one, just add it as part of the filter list in ublock

The extension I used for user agent was this one. I don’t think it matters what you spoof as, but I chose to spoof as chrome. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-string-switcher/

So far it worked and I’m back to no ads and no interruptions

Oh hey I ran into that issue, fixed it by blocking the element on ublock and spoofing my user agent

Edit: I put more details under nameisnotimportant’s comment, I was about to head to bed so I didn’t really provide details LOL
