How would that void a warranty? By the way those stupid stickers they put over screws also don’t void warranties either. Just because a corporation says something doesn’t make it true.

Does it really matter? The idea is that if you’re stealing because you are starving or need a pair of socks or something, it won’t be anywhere near $950. In other words nobody steals $950 on accident.

Nonsense lying like this is how we ended up with the mortgage crisis.

Having been on the teams that improve developer experience, the problem is that one of my hands gives while the other takes away. I can address every complaint a developer has about the company platform, but at the same time requirements ch

NY Times has no ability to filter notifications. So “earthquake kills everyone in California” buzzes my phone the same way that some stupid roided up horse winning a “race” does. It’s very annoying.

I’m amazed how many words this article managed to use without telling us a single thing about how the architecture works.

>If you want less heat you need the CPU to do fewer calculations. You do understand that different machines can do the same calculations with different amounts of energy, right?

It does feel like Linux sleep is nearly impossible to do well. My go-to example of jaw-dropping, industry-leading Linux hardware support is the Steam Deck. They deserve lots of praise for the monumental effort and achievement to make that p

As far as I can tell, and I’m happy to be corrected, most of the Apple trackpad “magic” comes from the software drivers, not from unique hardware. So making a frankenwork laptop wouldn’t really help unless you spent effort fighting with clo

While I agree with you that pc gaming is such a mature space that you can have an entire lifetime of fun with a historical catalog, the games you are describing are brushing up against the category of “retro gaming” at this point and the pe

It’s important to remember that “DOD” is a pathetic rebranding attempt of what it was originally founded as and continues to operate as: the Department of War.

There are many dams and gigantic underground pipes that carry the water through the area. It works fine for the water but not for kayakers. For example the Briones Reservoir is upstream of the San Pablo Reservoir connected by huge gravity-p

As a man, I have never done this, and I very rarely find myself in a situation where other men are like this towards me. If your experience is different, you are just surrounded by assholes and need to reflect on the people and places you s

This is the kind of content I come to HN for. If it makes you feel better, this kind of thread also serves as a lightning rod that contains the self-promoting of projects so you won’t see as many posts of this type.

Apple supports grounding as a first-party offering by using their extension cables that plug between the wall and the power brick. So this product isn’t doing something untested and unsupported.

I’m confused about your statements regarding 1Password. I am still using 1Password 7 with the exact same sync that I always have since the day that I bought it. Nothing has ever changed.

For EA it is less about datamining and more about flagging behavior that matches that of a cheater evading a ban. Cheaters reduce the fun, and therefore value, of a game.

Remember when every train derailment was 100% evidence that the USA was a failed state like Ancient Rome? That period lasted for a few months, I can’t wait till this one dies the same death.

I had the opposite experience. I thought pictures on the internet looked neat because it was unique. In person it causes an almost physical reaction in me because I found it so hideous.

This starts from a fundamental assumption that one person shops exclusively for only their own food. The vast majority of grocery shopping is done for a group of people (a couple, or a family). Those people aren’t eating an exact 50% even s
