They only dodge it to those who still loyally use Windows. Those of use who 'escaped' that hellscape are fully aware what an utter pile of bloated crap it's become. No idea why anyone tries to defend it at this point, it'

Absolutely love my (completely base model) M1 Air, and my M1 Pro MBP supplied by work. Both have shockingly amazing battery life. My work one was replacing a 2016 Macbook Pro which struggled to last more than a couple of hours when I was do

Apple are apparently working on this area, they've got 2 products coming out. The VR headset (with passthorugh) likely this year, and an AR set of glasses (with options for prescription lenses) which will do the whole projecting into y

Tailwind isn't component-driven, which they claim to be Stopped reading there. It's a utility library, that much has always been blatently clear and obvious. Really poor article.

This happens in the UK as NHS dentists get paid based on work done. My old one before I moved was great, regular checkups and no issues. Moved house and my new dentist 'found' 4 caveties that all needed fixing, one of which was &#

It's only really used for their internal applications and the OS level stuff so assume they want to prevent performance issues with it having to deal with 3rd party stuff.

I'd assume they are. IIRC they are giving free compute to the project, and those models cost an absolute fortune to train.

From the sounds of it it'll be built in. I'd assume it'll be on the rear though to balance the weight out.

I really, really hope that whatever Apple ends up releasing completely wipes the floor with Meta's headsets. They need some real competition to force them to really push the limits. It's going to be interesting to see what happens

Sure, if the aim is to dive you away from YouTube because you can't find relevent content to watch then they're doing a stellar job.

It's only partially based on history these days. The YouTube subreddit is ram packed with posts about the issue, it looks like 50% of your recommendations are relevent to you, the other half is randomly generated with seemingly nothing

If they did that it could work. It would need to allow full control of setting up whatever OS you want, be it Windows, *nix based, etc.

TL;DR there isnt one. They're all built and designed by developers. From an 'average joe' perspective, not a single one of them is easy to use.

I'd imagine most people going for the Mac Studio arent touching the balked Apple Display. It's been riddled with problems and at that price point you can get far better displays now. The panel they're using dates back to 2017

XServe would probably be pretty popular with the recent shift to ARM based servers for their lower power consumption. The problem would be their insistance for them to run full blown macOS instead of a dedicated Linux based server OS.

I think its fairly obvious they've hit some problems. I know they lost a lot of key people in their silicon development team so perhaps thats the reason. Whatever it is they're struggling to get the performance they need for a Mac

Spotify feels like it's got 1 developer working on it in their spare time. Their feature release timeline is awful and has been for years. I think what makes it worse is that they've got a section of their community site where you

As an asside to this, I'm surprised Elons using a Gulfstream G650ER. Given how much time he seems to spend in the air you'd have thought he'd want something a bit bigger with bedroom and shower facilities.

From the sounds of it its a bit more than just posting public flight data. He had people at airports tracking the plane as it was changing its flight code to prevent tracking. That goes beyond using public information and enters into stalki
