My father was once falsely accused of being a bak'targ. Calling Gowron Law helped restore honour to my house. 35/9 great service.

Can't you chuck it back into a reactor and reuse it that way, to help reduce the radioactivity, and get more power back out of it?

This is Kirk and Riker slander.

Kirk doesn't deserve that kind of reputation, whereas Riker does.

Slight shame that the contractors didn't start from the end. It could have been funnier if they had taken off the "er" instead.

Or shut them down, given the recent debacle with Amazon shutting down someone's account, disabling their devices in the process.

no headphone jack means you may need to purchase wireless headphones or earbuds and wireless earbuds don’t always have replaceable batteries

They're also more expensive, even if fairphone does offer their own headphones.

A cheap set of decent wired earphones is $10. $30 if you want something nice, like an IEM.

Bluetooth headphones don't tend to be quite as cheap, and are usually a good deal more.

Although you can't both charge the phone/use pripherals, like a keyboard/mouse and use headphones in that case, unless you're using one of the few phones with 2+ USB-C ports, and wireless charging can be cumbersome.

That sounds like a horrid decision. Imagine having to troubleshoot a relative's computer, which isn't working because their internet is down, or is too slow to support streaming Windows like that.

It just sounds like a nightmare all-round, both from a Microsoft Standpoint, since they would have to build all the hardware to support it, people who would have to troubleshoot an issue that might show up on either the local or networked version of Windows, but not both, and from a security standpoint, since it seems like it would make it a lot easier to just hijack the whole computer using that kind of mechanism, with the user being none the wiser, for the most part.

It's also accessible with <WinKey> + ;. Not quite sure why Windows has multiple shortcuts for the same menu, but there we are.

Unless it's using the Registry for some config values.
