Discord is so broken that I tend to just upload stuff to OneDrive and share it there.

Ah so they can temporarily allow malware.

Intel support 4 displays on a bottom end i5-1235U. Even my crappy little Lenovo M600 with an N-series Celeron supports 3 displays. Two 4k ones fine. I didn't have a third to test it with. It's either an architectural fuck up or in

That is hearsay until other people speak up.

One thing I realise when I read things like this is I'm too old to give a shit about personal dramas. Which is what this is.

I'm a lot older than that and am on discord nearly all the time. It's just IRC that works properly.

On the basis you have to pay for iCloud anyway if you want anything usable storage or service wise and Pages and Numbers are garbage, I would consider the default "paid" O365 apps to be excellent. 1Tb storage, outlook, excel and w

I don't, and the insurers don't, care about the car catching fire. It's the putting it out bit.

Well the thing is it's not just a crop. It's a crop plus adding a lot of processing to make it not look like a crop. Instead it looks like a crap!

Some of the modern mirrorless cameras are tiny and integrate with things like apple photos (via snapbridge in my case mine). I was doing most of my editing on my phone until recently.

Just default zoom. Digital assistance at its finest. If it was an unprocessed crop it'd be workable into something that doesn't look like an oil painting by Dall-E

I have those issues with power management and graphics drivers on stock Intel machines. The real problem is the kernel QA is shite and the vendor packaging QA is shite. Microsoft are actually orders of magnitude better and that's sayin

I'm so over smartphone cameras now. Earlier this week I did a two week expedition and what I did take on my 13 Pro was pretty terrible. You have to run with the fact that these cameras are all three shitty prime lenses and a lot of com

Yeah this is why I don't use Linux on the desktop. 25 years of trying and at least once every 6 months something stops working completely or doesn't work out of the box properly. I gave up.

That is fine until they make much more money exploiting people than I did exploiting them.

Not joking I seriously considered snagging that. Reckon I could turn a profit. The I realised I'd have to deal with the people who'd want to buy it and they are mostly scum.

If it's not documented and you have a problem then you are usually shit out of luck. The early days of butterfly keyboards was hell for a lot of people. I managed to get mine back to them for a full refund 3 days after I got it thank f

Yeah the Apple bootloader and restore stuff scares the shit out of me. The network access requirement, firmware on SSD and hardware lock are always lurking waiting for the most inconvenient time to go wonky when I hose something. Conversely

I fucked up. The spec is worse.

The camera is ok. The difficult bit is the expensive rig + post processing software + extensive skills required to get this result.

by baz00 3y ago
yeah Lenovo support is shit. It's why I just buy two of them most of the time :)

University work. Pretty much what apple promote it for.

Yeah my piano doesn't work with macOS Ventura suddenly. Audio dies after 2 minutes. I'm only using it for monitoring so I just plug bloody headphones in it and be done with the computer.

I don't get any ads. But yeah I'll give you that on the Telemetry.

Unlikely. My daughter is a normie and hit a wall with the basic M1 Air.

Don't need integrated graphics. Battery is not that important to me. Reliability is.

In my case mostly mathematical modelling tools, simple desktop apps etc. VScode is where it all takes place. I mean I even typeset in VSCode!
