That would be wonderful, unfortunately the storage density of tape is dependent also on the magnetic particle in the tape; smaller particles which can be magnetised enable smaller heads, which in turn enable higher storage density. I know y

Brexit happened at the end of January past. The UK has left the European Union. From February through to the end of this year is a transition period to facilitate further discussions to sort out the state of the future relationship with the

I think the message to take from that was not one of Jobs’ narcissism, but that the world was shaped by ordinary people, and that you and I (or him for that matter) can do the same.

I do wonder why they've not chosen to make progress in that regard to advancing the state of the system. Surely these are known good ideas that would improve the customer experience and the system from a technical level. I only speak a

That is also problematic - and if I recall correctly partly one of the reasons behind why windows requires restarts so frequently when software updates are on the table.

Anecdotally, I use a Caldigit - but I get frequent AMD GPU driver kernel panics when I plug my laptops in, I see it on two separate 16" machines (work and personal). I suspect that it's the monitors at fault. Less common but no le

Even better - in BASH and ZSH you can open up your preferred editor and compose a long command in that with "^x e" (or CTRL-x, e) - saving and closing will print the contents into your prompt, ready to be executed with an enter.

Proposing either of those two as a lingua franca (irony aside), would be a sure fire way to start an enormous argument in the EU. Surprisingly with the UK out of the EU; English is perhaps best placed to fill this role, as it is now a &quot

I used to work for a hosting firm who had large numbers of customers making use of CentOS for their pre-production environments, running RHEL for their production. This announcement is a kick in the teeth to those customers, as the transiti

I could see Apple potentially licensing the design (minus IP critical to their MacOS workstation offering like the GPU or neural engine), to a big cloud provider, if the cloud provider does the heavy lifting on the Linux port (something App

This makes me profoundly sad; such an iconic structure built for the betterment of all of us, allowed to decay, rot, and collapse. Even if it was past it's point of utility the structure itself was a modern icon of design. To be hyperb

Equal Weight index from what I've just read about it apparently treats each company in the index equally - as in 1/500th of the total index's value. What I was more thinking of is that the S&P 500 is top heavy with Big Te

Is this bitrate comparison an "apples to apples" comparison? I know when talking about audio compression in the frame of music reproduction AAC 256Kb/s is similarly performant to MP3 320Kb/s - and I think there are bette

I have no knowledge in this field whatsoever, but is this more an indication that we shouldn't be using the S&P 500 and similar indices as an overall indicator of the performance of the economy, is there value in looking at these i

I’d really like this to hold water given a larger sample size. I’d love my parents to be able to spend more time enjoying seeing their grandchildren grow up

Could it be that the 150W PSU is kept in order to power thunderbolt peripherals, or does thunderbolt not offer the ability to transmit power to peripherals from the host?

It doesn't necessarily require a working OS - you can of course use either of the two recovery systems (On Disk, or Internet Recovery), a bootable time machine drive(IIRC) or an OS X installation USB Drive to do so. I do agree however

I think the idea is that your three year old is going to be a very different four year old, who again was different to who they were as a two year old.

The machine always could, for newer machines they decided to mute it for some reason, there's an NVRAM setting, if you want to mute the chime again: `sudo nvram StartupMute=%01` and the reverse: `sudo nvram StartupMute=%00`

I’ve seen at least one other reviewer use “performance uplift” in their content too - perhaps there’s an agreement on terminology in place

I would assume their marketing writers have a style guide to conform to, and that "increase" is a word they actively choose not to use.

I'll be interested in seeing how their new computers turn out - as they're turning away from commodity hardware, and going back to bespoke silicon for their CPUs, it's like we're going back in time to the more heterogene

Your problematic example seems like a limitation coming from implementation rather than a technical problem. Forgive me if I’m incorrect but on most UEFI based systems shouldn’t the boot loader and all it’s dependencies live in the FAT32 EF
