Re: Get Connected with the Brydge Stone Pro Thunderbolt 3 Multiport Hub for MacOS and Windows

Hi Scott- I am indeed running two 27" monitors. One is an AOC U2790B 4K IPS monitor and the other is the BenqPD271QC (which is 2K). I'm driving them from a Mac Mini w/3GHz 6-Core i5 and 32 GB of RAM that I installed and have them extending the desktop rather than mirrored. In fact, with Sidecar I can further extend my screen to also include my 11" iPad Pro.

Re: Aftershokz Xtrainerz Bone-Conducting Headphones Add Safety As You Rock Your Run

dancohen — Mon, 17 Aug 2020 12:08:58 -0000

I had to use music that I actually owned (In one case I purchased an album I wanted on amazon for that reason.) From there I made a folder on my mac and simply dragged it into the Xtrainerz after it was plugged in and turned on. At that point it functions like an external drive.

Re: Greg Carries too Many Things & Needs Jelly Comb’s Travel Organizer for All of Them

Oh Greg... great gear kit but I’ve seen what you carry in it and I’ll say it again, “You carry too much crap!” (And that’s coming from someone who carries too much crap.)

We were given this exact set of knives as a wedding present. We use them every day and could not be happier. Great knives and they have held up incredibly well. (Plus they look awesome.)

Re: Olloclip’s New Lens Kits Take Your iPhoneography to New Heights

Sorry but “worth the wait” is my opinion, not hyperbole. Hyperbole would be “worth the wait because they are the best accessory every made for the iPhone or any other phone...” and, last I checked, that’s not what I wrote. So feel free to disagree with me but let’s avoid judgements that aren’t in fact accurate please.

Thanks Chris. That was a boneheaded move on my part. Thanks for catching it.

Re: Find out If You Are Arguing with a Bot on Twitter with Make Adverbs Great Again

It is not obvious, the statement you make is completely innacurafe and we don’t call people pathetic... even when they are.
If you want to disagree you are welcome. If you want to question testing methods you are welcome. If you want to offer a counter perspective you are welcome. But if you want to go into the trash as you do at the end of your comment you can take your ugly name calling somewhere else.

Re: Things Fall Apart: Of Donald Trump and the Unraveling of AIPAC

dancohen — Sun, 27 Mar 2016 10:43:33 -0000

It is true they allowed video speeches in the past from candidates. This time out they decided not to. One of the other candidates asked, was told no and then rearranged the schedule to be there. Bernie apparently asked about the video after this happened. At that point there was no way AIPAC could day, "oh sorry so and so, we told you no but now are going to tell sanders yes." That would have gone over really well.

Netanyahu was able to do video because his was a totally different scenario- he's not a candidate.

Facts actually do matter.

I signed up both of my main accounts when I saw your Facebook post. I'm impressed.
I just got my first "Rollups" of various emails that would have individually filled my inbox. All of them in a nice email with great formatting... I LOVE it.

Re: Seagate Backup Plus Fast Portable Drive Lets You Take 4TB On the Go

We will look into the Disqus issue.
One point of detail clarification. Since Seagate bought the Samsung hard drive division in 2011 aren't these actually Seagate drives inside now?

Re: Seagate Backup Plus Fast Portable Drive Lets You Take 4TB On the Go

dancohen — Mon, 10 Mar 2014 20:39:29 -0000

I would never- and didn't suggest- using this to "store" professional projects longterm. This is a portable drive. That means you take it with you. Outside. When you travel or go to work. THAT means it can get lost or stolen. That, in fact, is why I made the point that I won't be using a drive like this for my TimeMachine backups.

Re: iOS 7.1 Update Available

dancohen — Mon, 10 Mar 2014 18:44:12 -0000

Loopyduck- I wholeheartedly agree that that is a bit nuts. That noted... With the size of apps, images and videos these days a 16GB model with no SD slot is "bloody ridiculous" from the get-go.

Re: DRM or Cream in your Coffee? Soon you Could have Both with Keurig 2.0

dancohen — Mon, 10 Mar 2014 17:03:05 -0000

So coming out with a new system last year because their original patents ran out and they wanted to sell a new design for the cups wasn't enough? This takes me as nothing more than a simple money grab and they are going to be the ones to pay the price in the long run. They have a great product but if they stick to this they're going to be their own end.

Re: Hands-On With the Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 HD+ at MWC 2014

Judie spent time with it so I can't offer an opinion on the new one although to the specs do look decent. You are correct- I have the original (came yesterday) and it is a bit sluggish at times. Not sure I'll be keeping it for that reason. I do like the integrated kickstand though.

Moshi kinda snuck up on me.... I knew who they were but their offerings really have impressed me.
