They may be sized a bit more reasonably but they are still a serious distraction from the driving. Additionally, just this week my M3's touchscreen became suddenly unresponsive and a couple minutes later it started to rain quite a bit.

Fortunately our bodies are very well equipped to detect high CO2 concentrations (in our bloodstream - but that tracks outside concentration pretty reliably) - you will feel like you're suffocating and have an irresistible urge to move

Some estimates using reservation numbers, average waiting time and % of cancellations had a ballpark figure of 1 million around last October. Some websites are now quoting 3 million by now, although I don't know how they came to that n

I have not bought a single Sony device since the rootkit fiasco. I am tempted to compile a list of my purchases over the years, highlighting where they lost my money, and emailing it to them to show them this shit is costing them very real

With all respect to John Carmack (and it is really a lot of respect!) I'm surprised he seems unaware of pbzip2? It's a parallel implementation scales almost linearly with the amount of cores, and has been around since ~2010, so it

Oh, love the name, nice homage to the commodore 64 era ( LOAD "*",8,1 ). The editor screenshot also has a strong C64 vibe.

I agree wholeheartedly. I like jails a lot (and jails+ZFS even more) and I'm not a fan of Docker at all. But the entire planet adopted it and isn't even aware jails exist. You won't find a premade pihole jail, a downloadable

Whoa. Who said I want kids or a yard? Your values don't necessarily reflect mine. Also SIX kids? You know the planet is unsustainably overpopulated right?

I hate to break it to you, but an equally likely outcome of the introduction of AGI would be to replace you instead, and give those users exactly what they asked for, even if it's not optimal (or improving it, but preserving the interf

Australia is politically aligned with the "western" world (USA's sphere of influence) rather than with russia's ("Eastern bloc" at least until it fell apart) and it's quite typical to see it listed as such

90% on a single language (German), and I'm comfortably beyond the "pizza order level" level of fluency, but probably still below a B1. Trouble is, I meanwhile live in Germany and wouldn't be able to assign an exact figur

As a very happy Steam Deck owner, some of your points are valid, but frankly aren't so important (yes, not all games run, and if this was my only possible gaming hardware I would be upset - but I'm OK with only 70%ish of my catalo

Make that three decades ago. In 1992 I was using a utility called VGADISK to create a 176K ramdisk in the VGA memory - this was on a 286 "laptop" (rather a luggable) with 1MB of RAM, and allowed me to fit entire programs in there

Seconding this. Recently took a few long-ish trips in the EU, non-Tesla chargers are utter garbage. None of them just accept a credit/debit (EC) card, there are 20 different networks and you need to create an account with each of them,

In Winter 1987 I had an Amstrad PC1640HDMD with a 20MB MFM hard disk. I opened the case many times, the disk was just a 5.25 inch device, certainly not like 20 small refrigerators, or even one. Bonus: I got an RLL controller and turned it i

Additionally, disproving some bullshit claim takes a lot of effort - while coming up with further claims is rather easy. It's a very, very uneven battle and one not worth starting. Furthermore, some of the antivax are genuinely misinfo

The subscription model for the diving app is literally what made me decide against an apple watch ultra. I was disgusted and angry at the idea - over a thousand bucks and it doesn't work until I also pay a monthly fee on top of it? Fuc

TNT has actually pretty low energy density - lower than chocolate chip cookies if I remember correctly. It's only used because of its ability to deliver it all in one go - something cookies lack. Energy density alone is a fairly inadeq

Not if you use a heat pump, no. Modern ones have very high efficiency (above 300% as they're not actually using energy to make heat, just to "move it around") and work even in very, very cold temperatures. But you don't
