I mean I am pretty happy with my nothing phone. It came with a pretty minimal stock android that runs on hardware that’s quite good for what I paid. Despite the shitty name that people have indeed made fun of, the phone’s been pretty good so far.

I once read a review of a sous vide machine that just would not work unless it was connected to a smartphone via an app. And then that app would not work properly without a connection to some backend. That backend died at some point, bricking the sous vide machine. What a wonderful world we live in.

That was said by one random, rather insignificant Microsoft employee who had no capacity to make such a claim. Not in a position to even have that kind of information on the company’s future plans.

And even if they did have the capacity, if you actually go look at what really was said, it’s reasonably clear that they wanted to say latest version but fucked up the sentence. I hate defending Microsoft but that thing has become a meme at this point.

European countries have done the same for a long time though. Your Schengen visa application can easily be declined if you do not show that you have accomodations and a return ticket already taken care of. It’s not a strict automatic rejection afaik, but it’s most definitely not unheard of. It’s also common for the border police to ask to see your return tickets, depending on your… appearance.

That’s an easy argument to make but the reality is not that simple. Determining how many accidents are caused by these systems is much easier than determining how many accidents they have prevented. When an accident happens there’s something that can be investigated. There’s data. But when the system saves you and you go on your merry way, it’s never reported anywhere. The statistics have a very extreme bias here.

Not being able to play games? Not serious? What the hell are you talking about? Did you compare a 3090 to a bottom tier ATI Radeon card or something? My RX 6800 was a fucking champ that was able to run everything I threw at it without a single problem and with quite satisfactory performance at 1440p. It was most definitely a very competent GPU for gaming.

ML and nvenc are extra features that not everyone needs or even wants.

Tailscale funnel is made for this.

It’s not about what he tried into that universe, it’s what he shoehorned into the book for no reason other than to appeal to US nationalists. He has said he regrets writing that nonsensical subplot and was sorta strong armed into it, but what’s done is done and it’s so insanely dumb that it ruins the entire book, which is admittedly not that great without it either.

Asimov once called it his least favorite book, and I tend to agree. Its ending nearly made my eyes roll out of their sockets. I wanted to throw the book in the trash.

Everything good comes in threes. 2 emojis would have been too few, and 4 emojis would have been exhausting.

You’re not gonna be lining a flexible handheld device with the kind of solar panels that can achieve such efficiencies even under ideal conditions. If you want an actual parasol rather than an unwieldy, rigid, parasol shaped bed for a bunch of solar panels, this is a job for the more alternative solar cell types that are cheaper and less efficient, but can be made thinner and lighter, and can be stuck on something like that. Unfortunately those generally have piss poor efficiency and they degrade to near uselessness very quickly.

Does this mess with DRM stuff? Or do they keep working because it’s the same hardware?

The cap also says “by using”, so you have been outlawyered. You’ve been had. You have forfeited all your rights. You are now a property of Big Protein. Better luck next time.

It requires more space than a “native” installation, but that’s about it. Its impact on memory and CPU are very minimal, nowhere near VM levels because it’s not full-on virtualization. Docker containers share the host’s resources rather than creating virtual everything for themselves. Think multiple Linux environments sharing one kernel and drivers and libraries and whatnot. Except the runtime has strict control over which container can use what and how.

So Docker costs more in space. And space is cheap. It’s a price well worth the features it provides and enables (networking, orchestration, etc).

Nvidia drivers at least do something that are fairly complex and heavy, and they’re necessary. Whereas this thing is just some comically overdeveloped and extremely annoying piece of bloatware from Logitech to remap a bunch of buttons.

Which part broke exactly? Because I can confirm the one on my tablet, which I installed a long time ago, still works. Haven’t installed it on my current phone which I got not too long ago, so I’m wondering if it’s gonna be a problem.

I still use rif. You can get the app as an apk, and patch it to replace the original API key with your own using something like vanced. I already had my key from before the debacle, not sure how you get one these days. Anyway, it did give me some trouble while logging in, but eventually it worked.

You’re looking way too deep into it. “Sleeping with someone” is such a common expression that nobody can possibly hope to obfuscate anything with it. Everybody knows they fucked. There will be no mistakes, no confusion. Besides, it’s not unusual for different contexts to use different phrases and expressions for the same thing. The press using a “softer” language is not a uniquely American thing by a long shot and it’s kinda weird to assume it would be.

Not an American either btw.

Widewine? Maybe they have some content that requires L1, which still doesn’t work on Linux because of totally legitimate technical reasons that are absolutely not at all utter horseshit. Or they might be using some browser APIs that are not properly supported on Linux. There are a few of those.
