Widgets 54:07

26 weeks之前54:07

54:07

Tonight on GeekNights, we talk about widgets. Mostly status and telemetry widgets that people like to put on their desktops or their phones. They have their uses, but are usually useless. In the news, Cloudplane is shutting down in December , Adobe's Project Turntable is stunning , and Tesla's robots were (obviously) fake . If you are able to vote in the United States, make a plan to vote . You can't sit this one out. You can't vote for a "third party." It's frankly unethical to do anything but vote straight ticket for Democrats. There are two power-seeking coalitions in America. Choose the one that you want setting the rules for the next election. The Democrats are the literal best option we have. Do the right thing.
