Windows laptop makers have a bezel problem or should I say, you have an aspect ratio problem. Let’s break the bezel problem down a little. First is the bezel-less design that Dell and Lenovo are going for and second is the relationship between trackpad, aspect ratio of the screen and the body of the laptop.
Starting with the bezel-less design, the change is location of the webcam to the bottom bezel is a really bad idea. It really should go back to the top. There are a few problems with being at the bottom. The angle of the camera view is quite displeasing and not professional looking with conducting online meetings.

First let’s start with the Ani Sutta (SN20.7 of the Tipitaka). In it, Buddha predicted that his teachings will disappear in time when monks become complacent, ignorant and follows the teachings of superficial elegance. He also reminded his disciples to be vigilant about it and to be intelligent enough to differentiate between the good and the bad teachings. I’d say that responsibility falls not only on the monks but also the lay people who need to follow the monks of good teachings and not the bad. Anyways, attached is the Ani Sutta in Burmese, English and Pali. You need to read, understand and evaluate if this particular sutta is something you need to be mindful of.

First of all, Google should stop with this crazy Nexus suffix convention. It’s just annoying and confusing. The number designation behind the nexus name should be a descriptor for the size of the screen. And it should be accurate within ±0.5” of the designated number. For example, Nexus 6 screen size should be between 5.5” and 6.5”. For every new release of the model, the name should not change like 6P and 5X. It doesn’t make sense. People will refer to them as Nexus 6 2014 and Nexus 6 2015. Google can update half the lineup every 2 years. And they should always be premium showcase devices at reasonable prices.

There are conversations I hold with my loved ones and close friends that I don’t bother thinking about what they mean when they are taken out of context.
But this conversation warranted it. And this is how it went down, verbatim.
My wife and I were at Costco, walking down one of the refrigerated isles. Then, casually, my wife asked me:
“Do you want to get naked?”
