I really don’t understand the lack of mobile access. Even requesting desktop site changes nothing. You really can’t make what’s effectively a slideshow/streetview work on mobile? I don’t care if it’s not as good on mobile, just that I

Which ones of those can do notifications, health tracking, sleep cycle, temperature/blood pressure? I’ll wait.

Couldn’t agree more. Those amalgam windows mobile devices were an interesting for the time, but hellish experience imho.

> but the M-series Macs have spent 5 years changing absolutely nothing. You clearly keep up with tech news, kudos! I’ve seen no changes from other major pc manufacturers in response to Apple silicon, at all. /s

I will be absolutely shocked if any current pc company can even approach the neos build quality/performance/price combo. See you next year, happy to wait .

Are you talking Mac or iOS? I have never had an issue on iPhone’s mail app, though my desktop is Linux so I don’t know? Hence the question. I’ve never experienced any of that. Thanks

Genuinely curious, what were the Apple mail service issues for you? I hate gmail and have had zero issues with my @Mac.com email in 20+ years, that I’ve noticed. Thanks

Any of the billion guides to growing hydroponic cannabis can teach you how to do this in a vertical rack without issues. Neat write up though.

1. Duh. 2. This author is truly insufferable and arrogant. 3. Apple Music Classical exists.

Serious question- how does one defend against this besides wearing a mask or face paint? I want nothing to do with these glassholes.

2. How do you define loans, tax credits and other subsidies then? You claim it’s this person specifically advancing space faring capabilities- which literally would not be possible without the US government. So please elaborate, as you’re n

While the tech is impressive, from an end user interacting with this perspective, I want nothing to do with it, and I can’t support it. Neat as a one off but destructive imho. It’s bad enough some companies are doing AI-only interviews. I c

Seriously, you expect people to click a Google search link for people who agree with you- and then read what the LLM has to say?? When did HN become a garbage dump where people don’t do their own research and/or thinking?

You seriously just link to a google search of people who agree with you?? Solid investigation. Hard disagree on safari being even in the same ballpark as IE; what’s your alternative, Google owns the entirety of the browser space?

“UBI can’t work because economics.” Where is your source? The data says otherwise. https://www.wbur.org/onpoint/2024/08/19/universal-guaranteed...

Literally what this model does- create seemingly 3d scenes from 2d images, in the iOS photos app. It works even better when you take a real spatial image, which uses dual lenses.

I don’t understand how HN works I guess; I submitted this exact article 24 hours ago, yet the hivemind has yet to call this a dupe. Not complaining, just truly don’t get it. When I submit a dupe it tells me?

Seriously?? You’ve never seen a company want to control its entire stack and hardware for ANY reason but privacy? Cloud is great, but it doesn’t fit every use case.

by givinguflac 10mo ago
Why do you look at this as a consumer? Have you never heard of businesses spending money on hardware???
58.
by givinguflac 10mo ago
There are plenty of examples and reasons to do so besides privacy- because one can, because it’s cool, for research, for fine tuning, etc. I never mentioned privacy. Your use case is not everyone’s.

I think you’re missing the whole point, which is not using cloud compute.

That has nothing to do with it, and Apple wouldn’t train on user content, they’re not Google. If they ever did there would be opt in at best. There’s a reason they’re walking and observing, not running and trying to be the forefront cloud A
