No, there's no haptic touchpad. TBH, I didn't even know that was a thing.

I remember way back when I had my iPod Touch 4 (haven't touched Apple since then) that I (intentionally) jailbroke it simply by tapping a button on a website in Safari. It was an exploit that used a bug in iOS's PDF software, I believe.

I've got an Asus ZenBook (specifically this one that came out last year). It does have a fan, but it's pretty quiet. I barely notice it most of the time. It's pretty fast, too. Don't know how large of a touchpad you want, though.

No, 2 is more "why are they buying this many", and 3 is more "why would this person want to figure out some random thing that popped into their head about this".

I said a thriving community. There hasn't been a post there in three months.

It might be that second one. I was thinking it was m.reddit.com.

There are three problems I had with word problems in school. Not every problem applied to every word problem.

  1. "This is way too vague."

  2. "Why would someone buy 35 apples and 23 oranges?"

  3. "Why would the person in the problem want to try to figure this problem out? It's completely unrelated to what they were doing."

I get the point was for us to be able to convert information given in a text format into something we can actually solve, but the word problems were usually situations you'd never realistically find yourself in in real life.

Now, I'm wondering if we have a thriving Desire Paths (that's what these paths are called) community somewhere on here.

Huh. Must be leftover from the early days of the mobile Internet. Kinda like Reddit's old mobile site (which now just redirects to Reddit's current mobile site).

If you have an Android-based smart TV (or a device that runs Android connected to your TV), you can use SmartTube. It blocks ads, supports SponsorBlock, and casting from your phone, among other things.

Honestly, by the time I figure out what year the current generation began, we've already moved onto the next one. So I can't really blame them for forgetting Gen X.

If this comment were a map, I'd be lost.
