Microsoft Surface Laptops were trying for similar form factors and having the same thermal problems at the same time, this isn't a grand conspiracy, all Intel laptops were suffering.

Intel laptops cant even sleep anymore. I have a 11th Gen Intel space heater that invalidates every claim you've made in this thread. People aren't stupid, we've owned these shitty Intel products for years, you're fooling

"Must be a target" in the sense that you're included in an early subset of data that is filtered on abnormal behaviors who will get additional filtering applied to them. Pretty sure the next step isn't tapping your phone

Phones off during the day and on during evening hours would describe the behaviors of NSA employees who aren't allowed to carrying phones into their office, are less likely to share or participate with their personal details on social

It's a bit of both. It's not too hard to get cash-only "customers" to buy services you don't have to actually perform. It's also pretty easy to write two invoices, feign a mixup, and skim some off the top of a

If they wanted to start producing 3D content and charging extra for that, I'd see the reason but I'd balk at them charging more for delivering the same 2D content to a new system. I wouldn't expect a Vision Pro app delivering

In Windows you pay every time you open start menu and get blasted with tabloid news, ads and paid article placements. Or you pay in your time (again and again) turning it off each H2 update.

I've used SD to generate novel clipart with my kid for their school project to make a board game. It isn't taking away from an artist, I would never in a million years pay an artist to create throwaway art for a corner of a spray

There's a ton of TikTok/Instagram nonsense showing it out in the world doing those things. A large volume of the stuff you can do with it is just spoofing a USB keyboard and running console commands. You could do that for years wi

They expect it to be from a company that’s better at masquerading that their email is sent from a real human’s inbox instead of lumped in with the rest of their automated emails default config values.

Submarine basically transliterates to “undersea-er”. In a hodge podge language like English it doesn’t seem strange.

Contacting sales is literally subscribing to spam and being hassled by a desperate salesperson from that point onwards. I mean, that already happens with cold-contacting, but getting flagged as a MQL in a CRM makes it even worse.

I've never seen anyone toting big heavy and fragile glass carboy to Whole Foods, they're always hauling a lightweight plastic jug into a store that filtered the water with plastic PET tubing, plastic polyamide reverse osmosis filt

To add, it’s worth noting that what gives Person A trauma may not give Person B trauma. The situation is not a prescription for mental trauma. Two combat vets who fought side by side in the same battle can walk away with wildly different e

None of that supports your prior assertion that it's "absolutely" a religious effort though. Even if it's pure vanity and 100% wasteful, why should any Earthly religion have an overruling say about it?

This is nuanced, but I try for tests that ensure the business rules (or product features) of the code are being exercised without enforcing specific implementation or style. Sometimes that does mean being highly specific, like when you are

In my own experience, post-facto automated testing just locks in the codebase to behave exactly as it did before the tests. The benefit is preventing the introduction of new regressions unless they performed significant refactors along the

The Switch hardware is visibly inadequate for even their own first party games built in the last few years that use a compensatory art style. 4k@120fps isn't needed and I'm not even particularly a highly concerned gamer that nitpi

Technical brilliance doesn't mean they're worth the risk and danger. Someone who's documented as physically violent is simply a liability to all other employees they're around. Even without the physical danger he present

Look up nontrivial examples on their own docs. “Simple” form validation is a clusterfuck and that’s what they’re leading with.

I don't know if I would call them patent trolls per se, since some patent troll companies' business model is just trying to win patent lawsuits, but if you go to battle and the overwhelming majority of your patents are invalidated

Nah, Windows Mobile, Palm devices and even the Newton had virtual keyboards long before the iPhone came around. They were resistive screens with shitty operating systems that required a stylus to do anything but the lack of a physical keybo

Because it was an anecdote directly relevant to the comment it replied to, which happened to be someone using Rust? Would you have replied the same way had they mentioned the ability to use LLMs to generate Python? Would you equally imply a

They don't know what they mean, because there isn't a legal precedent for narrowly defining monopolies to facets of a single company's stores and platforms. It's just wishful thinking phrased authoritatively.
