    Thanks for a Good 6 Years, Georgia

    Georgia voters handed the Democrats nearly the whole state government yesterday. Keisha Lance Bottoms beat Republican Rick Jackson for governor, making her the first Democrat to win the office since 1998. Democrats also took lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, state school superintendent, and the commissioners of agriculture, insurance, and labor. They swept every…

    I Just Fixed Social Security

    Social Security runs dry in the fourth quarter of 2032, or so they say. At that point, current law cuts the benefits by 22% for every retiree in America.

In the days of the old Web (almost literally yesterday), Google helped you find what you were looking for. It gave you pages of links, ads, and filler you had to…

    My Phones Beat My 12-Year-Old PC: I Still Can’t Do One Simple Thing

    I have a Pixel 11 Pro and a Pixel 11. Both have more raw computing power than the 12-year-old PC sitting under my desk. That PC drives two monitors easily. Neither of my phones can. And after a week of trying every workaround I could find, I’ve learned that nobody makes the hardware or software…
