I think it’s a fair critique; at the very least MacOS should more readily expose this information to power users and sysads who want to know. I don’t think it should be necessary to rely on third party software to review the status of an im

I'm shocked that Vertu are still about - that said there's a classic idiom "money can't buy taste". The aesthetic of Vertu's devices is just so gauche, I'd imagine the traditional Coutts customer would abh

Unfortunately internet discourse in the last 10 years has tended to descend into echo chambers. If you’ve managed to avoid interactions with the content being posted there and in other spaces like it, you have done quite well. Worse than th

Out of interest, when do you have the cost of the rebuild written off in your calculations - many PC building enthusiasts enjoy a "Ship of Theseus" experience with their equipment; replacing parts piecemeal as and when they deem i

Many big name brand prebuild vendors sell plastic or glass sided gaming PCs - Here's one HP example: https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/omen-by-hp-45l-gaming-desk...

I’m not American, this is whataboutery and absurd to argue, everyone wants safer roads. The example of the Pinto is famous worldwide; famous for the disgusting disregard Ford had for it’s own customers. That it would rather send its own cus

That’s a very callous and detached way to consider human life. It’s exactly the sort of thinking that led to the execution of the Ford Pinto. Wherein the bookkeepers determined that the number of deaths and cost of wrongful death settlemen

Unfortunately the only example of a laptop I was aware of with 4x Thunderbolt ports was the much maligned 2016-2019 MacBook Pro series. the new models have 3 - and a dedicated charger port in the new iteration of MagSafe, but can also still

The central core stations are capable of handling longer trains, I believe an additional two carriages. But the above ground stations may not be capable of receiving those carriages, leading to a few where the carriage doors will not open.

Like you I have issues with the iso layout, my dislike comes from the enter key. It’s a fundamental layout issue that trips me every time. Especially on Apple products, where the right side of the keyboard is brought in by .25/.5U, so

This looks fabulous - I am all for your industrial design. I note in the specs you mention kailh red linears, but tactile switches in the blurb up top, will there be a choice between linear and tactile?

It's been a while since I bought powder, in the UK it's been quite a long time (pre-covid?) since I saw Boots (a pharmacy chain) stock their own brand of scented talcum powder. I wonder has it been withdrawn from the market altoge

I suspect that for Windows 10 the window appearing but not fully drawn is a function of the introduction of a display compositor (Desktop Window Manager) in Windows Vista - this is also what solved the famous issue of Windows "leaving

MMS was (is?) spectacularly expensive, I recall sending an MMS and it costing in the realm of £1.50 -> £2.00 per message, furthermore there was a maximum size to the attachment you could send with it (100k-200k?). These two alone made it

I find the idea of the life of a misanthropic bookstore owner to be very appealing - very much in the vein of UK comedy show “Black Books”. I think if I had “fuck you money” and were to give up tech this would be the perfect hobby business

From a human perspective, that settlers from one part of the range found a home in another part of the same range is interesting - the heavy Irish and Scottish settlement in Appalachia, taking language and music with them.

Mandarin in this context is often used satirically to describe a senior civil servant. In the British press you’ll frequently hear of the leaders of the civil service described as “Whitehall Mandarins”.

Ohh cool! I have to look into that. My workstation is quite locked down at work so edge is the only alternative to chrome available.

I recently bought a 14" Pro - fantastic machine, but I would be wrong to say that I wasn't very very tempted by the m2 Air. My one need that the Air didn't fill is to drive two external monitors. For me - everything else - is
