I just can't fathom how employees of a company would do all this because someone with a newsletter criticized the company often. I understand employees committing fraud for their own gain. I don't understand Directors and analysts

I recently purchased an Xbox Series S for ~NZD$180 to re-play GTA4 (and Episodes) as I never got to finish it when it first came out, and to get through all the GTAs before GTA6 comes out. 512GB Series S consoles in NZ are now retailing for

It probably could. Wait till the 3rd generation where it will eventually end up growing in size such that unfolded it'll be equivalent in size to an 11" iPad. I already remote into my Mac from my iPad using Mirage by Ethan Lipnik.

I think there's a software route you can go, but I went the hardware route. Essentially requires opening up the iMac, gutting out all the internals, and replacing it with a display driver board (from AliExpress, eBay, etc). The display

Best thing I've done - monitor wise - is buy a 2019 iMac 5k and convert it to work as an external display. Such a beautiful display. Only downside is once you go 5k it's very hard to go back to any lower resolution. I ended up con

I think the iPhone's one (based on the leaks anyway) will be slightly smaller, but I still think it's going to be a popular device. Especially with Apple's experience from iPad OS, it's going to be like two devices in

Yeah, initially my skepticism was around the fact that the front screen wouldn't be useful for day-to-day 'normal' smartphone things (messaging, scrolling X etc), and the inner screen would be too small for any of the 't

I was a bit skeptical on this form factor, but after watching a few reviews I think I'm convinced. The heart says yes, bank balance says definitely no. I think with Apple's software optimization, it'll be a really solid devic

I can't reply with stats, but I sometimes get in a bit of a loop watching the 'pred vs catcher' videos on social media. After having watched what would probably be hundreds (across the US and UK), you start to see some patter

Slightly off-topic: When I used to eat banana-flavored things (milkshakes, chocolate bars, etc), I always thought that the flavor was artifically inflated and tasted nothing like an actual banana... ...until I went to Fiji. Externally, the

Except a car with a loud exhaust you'll hear for a max 10 seconds as it drives past you/ your house is not the same as having a house that is stationary, with a loudspeaker, that the neighbours will hear all the time.

I've been pondering this, and have been moving between cynicism and (cautious) optimism. I think there will be more action on this than climate change, only because the AI impact will have a more immediate, direct impact on politicians
