so the mouse is not married?

This has always been a risk for artists working for powerful people. It doesn't necessarily end well for the artist.

A policeman? is that unusual?

TIL. tho maybe TMI.

Next will be an update to re-install it, but re-enabled (having forgotten that it was disabled before...)

If you are saying it wrong and it correctly identifies that, that could have value. But if you are saying it right and it incorrectly concludes that you are wrong, that delays your improvement.

But I wouldn't mind hearing about strategies for getting accurate feedback from the voice recognition from people who do use it.

I always skip the speech recognition exercises. I am not convinced that the recognition is reliable.

Just to second that, the model series is Latitude, not Inspiron. and yeah, the i5 processor options I got over the years beat the i7 on processing power. The Precision models are a step up, but not any kind of low cost and seem not quite as tough.

Oh, my, what a surprise! /s

Not at all. Trump is impervious to evidence.

As you add more compute per user interaction ("smart" features), you increase power consumption. To keep an 18hour discharge cycle, you have to have more battery. Since phone thickness is a negative marketing feature but increased screen size is a positive marketing feature, you end up with bigger phones.

Every time they reduce compute power consumption, feature inflation overtakes the gain and more power is needed over time. Try turning on battery saver in the morning... even with "normal" use the battery will last significantly longer due to disabling background power consumption.

So optimistically assuming that Trump will follow through.
