What happens when you open the fridge door? Does the note move along, or clip through the door, into the fridge?

I’m a very happy single screen + spaces user. I’d love this kind of setup in VR, where there’s an easy way to rotate around the spaces for longer work in a given area, but still be able to quickly glance.

That’s the main question. And I suspect, the reason why Apple has not pitched that sort of desk setup. I doubt this is comfortable enough to provide a full day, every day usage.

According to Wikipedia astronauts that spent about 800 days in space have aged about 20 milliseconds less. But I'm not sure if that's the correct phrasing and usage of word "age".

If you assume that the observer can "occupy" a body, rather than be a body, you have to conclude that the memories are part of the body, not the observer. You assume that you occupy the "correct" body, because your prese

There already are distributions based around elements of SteamOS, geared towards PCs and controller-based usage. ChimeraOS works for me quite flawlessly, including Steam Deck add-ons, like EmuDeck.

In that case, the language model calls a search function and just repeats the result out its conversation context, not its training data. With that in mind it's not clear why it's ok for Bing itself to quote the source, but it sto

You make it seem as if the copyright holder is making more money on a library book, than on one sold in retail, which does not appear to be the case in the US.

I believe it’s actually quite expensive to keep a service in a working condition. You can’t just leave a system connected to the internet running for years with no oversight. But ultimately, your last sentence points out the most important

Their valuation is three times larger than Toyota, yet they manufacture only 10% as much cars a year. It’s still deeply rooted in hopes of future expansion and innovations, lack of which they might not survive.

We don’t perceive all types of screens in the same way. Film projectors and CRTs display parts of the frame, only part of the time. TFT and IPS screens introduce a lot of inertia and blend the frames. Both of these help the motion illusion.

I remember being able to watch bootleg movies on a Windows 2000, while Windows 98 was too slow on the same hardware. I suspect that had nothing to do with bloatware, but rather some internal inefficiencies while dealing with heavy CPU/

I understand that we was instrumental in the earlier days, but does it seem like he is involved in the day-to-day work on the technology, today? When the new CEO advocates for a near-pause in AI development, does he mean operations?

Microsoft reportedly invested 13 billion dollars and has a generous profit sharing agreement. They don’t have enough to control OpenAI, but does that mean the company can actively steer away from profit?

Isn’t that a bit like stealing from the for-profit investors? I’m not the first one to shed a tear for the super wealthy, but is that even legal? Can a company you invested in just say they don’t like profit any more?
