This is my biggest complaint about AI. Instead of creating easy-to-navigate help sections of the website, and explaining the product and everything clearly, the flashy vendors simply put everything behind an opaque model as if that's s

Remember we had to re-enable key support in order to login to devices running older firmware releases? Well… The good news is that one of those annoying options is now no more!

TBH, I never found that answer. I don't know anyone who still uses Mercurial in any way, and it's the exact same GPL license as Git, so, it's not even "nicely" licensed, either. NetBSD has previously used Fossil-SC

They're limited only because of poor regulations and caps on the market, exclusivity agreements of hospitals, tying of healthcare to jobs etc.

Aren't you just proving the point, though? You automatically assume all conspiracies from one set of countries to be unsubstantiated, yet all the other ones from a different set of countries to suddenly be substantiated and requiring

Yup, it's specifically a problem if you simply go to Amazon, and shop GL.iNet based on price. Their GL.iNet SFT-1200 "Opal" router does NOT have ANY OSS firmware options. It's a great travel router for $35 USD, but, ala

Yes, but, also, things don't go in isolation. This $89.00 price requires extra $14.42 for slow shipping. Not to mention, that the official place to buy this from, reports that "this item is no longer available". They'r

It's just been released a few days ago, and already broken links and OOS / lack of pre-ordering, extra for shipping, broken images on the product details page etc. Not a good look!

The $193.00 for an extra 32GB of LPDDR5X is simply an example of Lenovo's CTO website showing the pre-discount MSRP prices for all the upgrades, even though they run near-permanent discounts of 40% and more compared to their official M

Yes, Lenovo pricing for this machine is pretty amazing for the last several weeks — at least in the US it is. https://lenovo.com/us/en/p/21n1cto1wwus1 It's $1184.40 for the default CTO with 32 GB LPDDR5X

The point is that most of the keyboards for sale on Amazon are still USB-A, even the more fancy ones, even though Apple useds tend to portray USB-A as last-century and deprecated. USB mice is still faster and more fluid cursor movement tha

That was a bit ironic, indeed, but at least the USB-A works! For what it's worth, the majority of mechanical RGB keyboards and mice are USB-A anyways, so, if you're fine with a very powerful machine that wouldn't have an inte
