Contact them about it. I did for an event in the fall, and it turned out that people wouldn't have to pay for parking. No idea if the SoCal events would also include free parking, of course.

Agreed, it is off topic. User interfaces aren't though, which is where this sprang from. Anyway, I'm happy to get back to talking about the Slate.

This essay sums it up pretty well: "People are spending less and less time on the web because websites are becoming worse and worse experiences, but the publishers of websites are almost literally trying to dig their way out of that hole by adding more and more of the reader-hostile shit that...

Congrats on your work! People get to choose whichever tool they like for their websites, etc. A small business should concentrate on its actual business objective, rather than worrying about data entry for their website. People will return to websites they find usable. Or that they are forced...

Nobody was talking about honor. We were talking about bad user interfaces. It's harder to learn how to do something than to get an AI to do it for you too. But learning how to do it is often more satisfying. It's part of being human. I don't have the same objections that many people do about...

I love it! And hey, maybe you can get a slatelet made of your MMC! Good call on the radio too! 😉

I could not use the internet without my ad blockers. Pages that require them, I don't bother with. Or I check for an archived page. I block YouTube ads too, on my PC. If a PiHole can do that for Android TV, I'll be checking it out. Quite honestly, as much as people hate ads, having them in your...

Thanks for the video review, I don't feel so bad now that I missed it!

And btw, I've visited your website. I think it's beautfiul and I'm looking forward to reading your book too! I love sci-fi.

No idea why, but I can't see the video you posted about.

I love websites that don't look like every other website out there! Yet another thing I like about the Slate. Their website has information about the truck, in an easily accessible format. It's not full of pictures of cars zooming around on empty roads or open spaces. Btw, where are all these...

I still love a good command line to get things done. 🥰 Especially since GUIs are no longer intuitive. The art of user interface development has been lost to agile and vibe coding.

I still write SQL. Using a command line too. As a matter of fact, I'm working on some code for an org I volunteer for right now. 😊

And I don't want one "equipped" with things I really have no interest in or use for. I have a cell phone and mp3 players, for music, with some good sounding speakers of my own choice. Plus I have a GPS for directions. Back doors are a waste of space too. I'm never bringing extra passengers. Back...

An AS/400 shop actually, though there was some COBOL. Those people made out! Lots of late evenings, but there was also lots of cameraderie. And when our due diligence was done, we partied like it was 1999.🥳🎶😉

You're welcome. I was one of the people who worked on the Y2K problem, to ensure it ended up as a big nothing:)

I'm still checking all these things out!

Yes it has! Sending you a belated thanks too!

A belated thanks for that info!

Just wanted to give you a big thank you for saying this. I see speed demons passing and weaving and wonder if there is going to be a huge traffic pile up down the road due to those self-centered fools. Sometimes there is. I always hope that they don't hurt anyone, besides themselves. Wish we...
