This was one of the stupid things that was touted as a benefit of not being in the EU during brexit. That we'd still have to comply with EU rules if we wanted to trade with them, but we wouldn't have any vote in those rules

80% doesn't mean the battery needs replacing though

Imperial is confusing at the best of times, but couldn't they have said 24.5 tons instead of 55,000 lbs?

They don't normally give a reason. Just picking a few random examples https://old.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/1wbapys/zevora_e... https://old.reddit.com/r/emulation/com

Surely it makes more sense for European data to be stored in the more local datacentre?

It's a rarity to see a comments section in r/emulation that isn't just endless screaming about AI code

Surely this is the opposite? Collecting photos of adults to prove that they can use the service

It literally is a niche. The amount of desktop users using linux is way smaller than windows

I'm sure given all of their devs at google, they can task someone with taking screenshots. Or can gemini generate a script to automatically update the screenshots when updated?

People who want 2 phones but one number. Seems self explanatory to me

This is the other way round. It's to prove that you're an adult if you use any apps or sites that are adult only.

Not really. The vast majority of devices are so similar that you only really have a couple of categories to cater for

Twitter in its design has never been a platform for discussion, but for shouting into the void. And that seems to have empowered people to voice their most awful opinions because they don't see much pushback

Not entirely. CPI takes things like subscriptions into account, but not DPI

Well they do have a choice, and that's to switch to windows. I run linux too but I'm not going to pretend like my choice to run a niche setup means I'm entitled to pirate content because they don't 100% support it

It's quite unlikely. There's very few niche albums that I haven't found on spotify

> It is way cheaper long term. I would think this is only true if you watch a small number of shows and rewatch them often

It's like electric car ranges. Their claim will be 45 hours under a very specific testbench. Real life results will be lower

Nah. Software took 15-20 seconds when we were back on spinning discs. Now that we have solid state supercomputers in our pockets, even the most simple app should launch in milliseconds

There's no way that's true. Otherwise everyone's phone battery would need to be completely replaced every 2 years Edit: I just googled it. Apple claims that the iphone 17 should handle 1000 full charge cycles before reaching

Don't then. Just wait until you actually need a new phone before buying a new one

I'd be quite happy with "It's not as powerful as last years model, but it has double the battery capacity"

This is apple. They're the kings of "memory bandwidth is 2x... (within a very specific set of test cases)"

Let's stop filling static websites with javascript. That should instantly reduce the overhead

Because they're being very awkwardly specific in order to make it sound like they're the first to do it. For the average consumer who doesn't know that if you look outside of their disclaimer you'll find that it already

I don't know why the Zelda series in particular gets retconned so much. It's so clear that they just drew on various fantasy/cultural tropes that they liked at the time and weren't thinking decades into the future. It&#

I think that image really visualises how bad the x logo is https://img-cdn.thepublive.com/filters:format(webp)/afaqs/me... The original logos weren't great but they were more charming than X
