I agree with you, but my first step in doing a modicum of research on a new subject is to ask questions. I can ask the most basic questions to chatgpt and usually get pointed in the right direction. Which is my point. ChatGPT is the most ba

Oh, there are definitely things that can help a consumer avoid the slimiest ones. For example, if you get a loan, they will often be contractually obligated to the lender to meet their production targets. You can also ask for a production g

I like solar, but there are a lot of slimy salesmen. I've seen installs that were heavily shaded to the point that they certainly couldn't be profitable. They weren't new and just waiting on tree trimming either. There are go

Yeah, I'm noticing the same thing. I have a lot of questions that could be Stackoverflow questions. But to do that, I'd have to make sure there are no duplicates and frame the question with every appropriate detail. Or, I could ju

Yeah, it is funny how successful Linux became as a desktop while basically noone was paying attention. I just wish the keyboards were more developer friendly. Give me F keys!

It may just need a little while to settle down. I get the feeling a lot of things get updated in the background after the initial upgrade. I noticed that my old Pixel 5 felt really slow for the first 30 minutes or so, but it seems to be re

Less than 100hp from the electric motors? That might not be bad, but maybe that shouldn't have been the headline figure. More interesting would be the torque data. I'm guessing that is fairly good, as it would solve the rotary

My guess is that they throttle a bit. ChromeOS machines tend to sleep and resume really well and sacrifice performance for battery. In a world full of low end garbage windows machines, it actually makes them a pretty nice little niche. Lots

I feel like the minimum standard is too low, tbh. Building dozens of them and selling them seems like enough. There needs to be another standard that is something like... built at least 10k of them. Because less than that is still likely ha

Sure, but the vast majority of those mods and alternative distributions are based on the sources that are available. It is a bit like a Linux distro running Steam. Yeah, there are proprietary bits, but the FOSS part naturally happens on the

I feel like that is often true for organizations like this. Eclipse Foundation isn't much better. Sometimes it is the place projects go when their original author wants to kill them but doesn't want to say they are doing that.

That's fair, but largely unrelated. Neither webcams nor phones tend to have super high quality mics. It is best to get a standalone mic to improve quality, or even just high quality bluetooth headphones. But the builtin camera on phone
