Given what it was would it have been under actual stress? Certainly seems questionable to use any 3-D printed plastic material for exhaust. That’s absolutely going to be too hot.

Does it? The series is very obviously not “remastered“. It’s just flat out broken. No remaster would ever drop all the visual effects. That’s just making it unfinished again.

TBF: Apple has slowly been on the “push our services” ads thing. At least not other companies. But they’re doing it. And it’s annoying.

But thermal storage doesn’t wear out, unlike batteries, right? So less future maintenance. Plus there is no danger of battery puncture. More directly this is a very cold area. Enough it might effect battery storage enough to be a real probl

We were staring. People voted against it. Bigly.

It is literally correct. My point was I think it implies the EU had to force a totally belligerent Apple (which we’ve certainly seen) instead of Apple already working on this and EU perhaps speeding the timeline a little.

GP meant Lightning. It was reversible. You are correct, the dock connector for was not. And they couldn’t go to USB-C instead of Lightning initially as Lightning came out first.

Really? Do you remember the user shit storm when they dumped the dock connector and went to lightning? People wouldn’t shut up for years, even though lightning was way way better.

I wouldn’t blame USB-C for that, personally. The Pencil situation is a disaster . There are at least 3 first party versions plus the 3rd party ones. And when version X + 1 comes out they don’t drop support for version X, they use it in a d

So they forced Apple to drop an Apple proprietary thing in favor of… a Wi-Fi standard Apple helped develop specifically to replace their proprietary thing. Not quite as strong as the headline makes the case sound.

YES. That was HORRIBLE. Thankfully that only lasted like a day or two. The fact that they would ever think that was possibly an OK thing to do though shows you how brain dead they are.

And how should I use a web browser on my Apple TV? That’s not an option. And if it was? I wouldn’t want to use it.

It’s only “really long“ because it doesn’t fit on my screen. I agree in the abstract it’s a perfectly reasonable title. It should absolutely be readable. But it’s not. Because the app sucks.

That is not my experience. It’s extremely rare for me to ever need to kill an app.

It’s different on Apple TV.

I noticed this morning there was a new version of the YouTube app on my Apple TV. I can’t wait to find out how they screwed this one up. My personal long-term complaint is the length of video titles. Lots of people like to make really long

That’s why I emphasized “needing”.

by MBCook 11mo ago
Sure but you still want them as stable as possible. Needing (emphasis there) to fail over should be for emergencies, not standard operating procedure.

Start by kicking out Cook, MASSIVELY toning down Liquid Glass, fixing the Mac to look more Mac like, and stop shoving ads in my face.

I’m surprised to hear the ammo calculation code would use floats.

by MBCook 11mo ago
In fact that’s how it always worked. Apps that don’t work that way, including Apple’s, are “wrong”.

I agree they won’t do a Steam Deck 2 that’s ARM. Maybe in the future? BUT, what about a “Steam Deck Mini”? Something at/above the current Steam Deck, maybe a little closer to Switch 2, but smaller/thinner/maybe a little cheap

I didn’t know there was a three engine business jet, my knowledge is mostly passenger airliners and even then just from an amateur perspective. Other than being able to identify a couple of famous ones I don’t know a ton about military airp

It wasn’t failed. It was designed for a very specific reason and served that purpose well. Once the reason went away, better designs took over. They were designed to allow smaller jets to fly over the ocean further than a two engine jet was

Seems I forgot the other chart. https://jdsupra-html-images.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/85dd2... BC was very esoteric in 2010 or 2012. I imagine it would have been impossible for average businesses to actually get the crypto

So? Are you suggesting banning all money? Crypto has uniquely allowed the huge uptick in ransomware. Before they had to figure out some way to get paid using the banking system without getting caught. These days maybe they would be asking f

Wow. I managed to miss a single word despite reading three times to check. Ugh. Sorry.

Can you provide a link debunking it?
