That's interesting, thanks you for the explanation, makes sense to me!

This might be a naive question but couldn't they just mandate something like 'the latest and or most appropriate revision of the USB standard for the use case' within reason and have that include potential future updates as w

I renewed five contracts this year, neither of them had the same amount of data for roaming as they did for local. Calls and SMS, they did (unlimited, basically). This seems to be the norm for Orange here. I would assume the same goes for V

In my country (Eastern Europe) there are very generous subsidies now for buying an EV as a replacement for an older vehicle so I ended up going for that instead of buying a nice gas car. With gas prices (and the general economy) being the w

Some newer boards allow you to control your RGB LEDs from the BIOS (ASUS ones in my experience, at least), if you don't need much control over it that can be a viable alternative as well.

That's strange because I have separate roaming data in my contract and it's way less than my local one.

My personal preference for a DAW is Studio One, it’s lovely. I like the efficient UI and it has all the features I ever wanted. One of the sad ironies of my life is that once I switched to macOS and could’ve avoided all the annoyances and i

Louis Rossmann covered this on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B18NhlBSjQc I found his opinion on this to be both informative and interesting, seeing how he's a right to repair advocate and activist, yet h

Remember the video push? When it turned out that they were tweaking and prettying up their engagement stats for advertisers?

If and when they’ll come out with a 15 inch or above sized version that’s shipping in Europe and my MacBook Pro 2017 gets long in the tooth, I will be looking at a Framework instead. The replaceable port idea doesn’t factor into my use case

I like AI and its promises but a lot of these real world implementations seem so half-baked that it baffles me that they're even deployed or are allowed to be deployed, legally speaking, especially when it affects cars and driving and

Considering that they got the algo reverse engineered from 14 (it is already in the code running on all those devices) there seems to be a possibility that a security update could bring it online on 14 as well. Just my speculation but it se

I like the zoom level to information ratio a lot on Apple Maps, especially in the UK. It’s not very good in my country so I reluctantly use Waze instead when needed.

Cities tend to have central gas heating or communal here. Gas tends to be the cheapest option and electric the most expensive.

Firewood is not cheap and is becoming increasingly harder to acquire. 10 cubic meter of processed and ready to use wood was around 750 or more euros this year and will be even more in the future. I put in an order at a mill in June and didn

I can’t tell you from recent personal experience because I heat my house with firewood and IR panels but a winter’s worth of wood cost me twice the minimum wage. My gas heating costs were minimal when I lived in an apartment because it was

They've been signalling a 40%+ gas price increase for the winter in the news here in Romania. For the poor people and pensioners who often live month to month this is tragic news. They don't know how they'll make it when they

That's pretty cool, anime seems to be the perfect material for doing that upscaling on. I tried the upscaling stuff newer video games have implemented and the real-time version of it can sometimes be glitchy. I'll be happy to see

This looks like an amazing undertaking, especially seeing the comparison to the bluray version. I was planning on watching the trilogy on bluray but I guess I have better plans now. :) Thank you! Being a child of the 90s and of the digital

I had loads of non-UI issues with 8, 8.1 and even more with 10. For example suspend was completely broken on a Surface Pro on 10, while on my desktop it would mess up the filesystem on a drive every few days. They fixed most of them eventua

I find any VPN company that pays influencers to talk about privacy, security and stolen credit cards suspicious from the get go. Especially when they do it on prevalent tech channels. And especially when they talk about the stolen credit ca

I find it hard to disagree with any or that! Admittedly I was just thinking user experience, false positives and programming when I mulled it over in my head. I tried Locals, Gab (in their less controversial, earlier life while they still h

The first time I've actually used macOS was on a hackintosh'd Acer laptop, only out of curiosity. I didn't keep it as my main OS but I was surprised to discover the gestures and that they worked perfectly just as I know them

I don't believe that you can manually moderate platforms at this scale. Even with the hybrid model of some manual moderation, I've read a lot of articles on the content they're forced to deal with crushing their mental health

Putting politics aside (I know, it's difficult), I can't help but wonder why is it that even with companies like these, marketing comes first? Looking at Gab, Parler and now Epik, it confuses my you'd paint a giant target on
