This is 100% the way. Did the same thing with my new Samsung. It's been a very clean experience.


Temporary paper IDs are issued in some states while you await receiving your real ID in the mail. They are easy to Photoshop and print and must be accepted with a photo ID with matching name, like a college ID.


If you talking about temporary driver licenses, at least in californoa they say "NOT A VERIFIED IDENTIFICATION" on the top.


Yes, that's what I'm talking about. It's possible that things have changed since I was in college ;)


You can use the temporary drivers licenses as driver licenses (for actual driving), but I don't think they are generally accepted in other situations.

I am watching this space carefully, and pretty excited about Apple getting involved. Apple sold 58.7 million AirPods in 2019, so if anyone can bring better hearing (for less $) to the masses, it's Apple. There is a longterm accessibility issue when it comes to hearing aids (mostly due to cost), and purchasing a brand new iPhone and AirPods would actually be substantially cheaper than buying new hearing aids. Hopefully Google gets in the game too with their pixel buds.

Or describing a piano piece in musical notes.

Not op but I imagine the idea must be that they can point on the thing they want to year in a noisy environment and software can amplify the sound generated at that ___location.


Have you ever looked at all the third party scripts loaded by disqus? Garbage.


Thanks for the laugh :)


Improvements should be coming to big commerce soon as well. They just raised $64m. More competition for Shopify and I read their stock price is being scrutinized.


How does sketch compare to webflow?


This medium article is an example of good marketing. Just discovered this app.
