I suddenly felt the old Amiga fanboi inside of me pop up... :-) At one time, up to at least 1996 the fastest Mac for running Photoshop, was not a Macintosh at all, but an Amiga tricked out with a graphics card and a CPU upgraded from the

I guess many - Sega was uuuuuuge in Brazil. It was almost like a PC.

I wonder if this was inspired by the person who compiled .NET for Windows 3.11?

What I think is interesting is how the data that matters is on the server. Besides, if you think about it, you make my argument for me - “they” have the power budget, the mobile device has not. Think holistically.

Yes, but still not seeing the forest for all the trees. Yes, a phone has substantial computing power - compared to old technology. But is has nothing in storage or processing power against the data centers of Netflix, Facebook and Google.

I'm thinking on a higher level - what we have is exactly that the data is on servers and that people do not have control over their own hardware. And that the cheap hardware is good enough.

Very prescient iPad / smart phone prediction there.

If it has a little battery it could for a short duration have an even lower heat signature by turning off the turbine.

Inspired by the captured WW2 German flying wing, no doubt.

I have to grudgingly agree on this single point. Amazon are still actively deceiving customers and generally being horrible though. But hey, enjoy Prime.

I mean, they have not held a press conference since March 14. In these times, you'd think they'd have something to say since then. But maybe this is not to be expected, I can only compare to the rough equivalents in England, the

Ok, if you feel things are still in such a good shape, great for you. At my distant vantage point, it seems it could be difficult to keep up with all the ways the WH (we do not speak its name) is or could be interfering with just about anyt

But they already could do that.

So, as a foreigner that seems an entirely reasonable question. Interesting that you got downvoted. Edit: why would I wonder? Not only because the commander in chief is quickly flipping between standpoints, but why is the CDC silent since Ma

Yes and at this pace it may take thousands (or at least hundreds) of years to patch up our A.I. to general A.I.

... and maybe a certain charm. My VHS collection implies there must be some charm to VHS - and a grainy meme clip with 100% guarantee of no sound has a certain charm too.

Agreed except the fabled concept of the flying car which NASA has been tinkering with for a long time. (Don't know if they still do. Not tinkering with as in actually building it, but thinking about "lanes" in the air, collis

To be fair there often is a key chain in place nowadays, for booting a PC. It's a little bit better even though I don't like how basically Microsoft controls the keys.

It would be cool if someone made a miSTer 68k CPU replacement, like how Vampire can accelerate an original Amiga.

We can. They have a product owner, a designer, a developer and a tester full time.

GIFs are the new VHS - bad quality, bulky, slow - but truly ubiquitous.

No, just get out if you can. Put every bit of energy you have left to that goal.

Kallocain scared me shitless as a child. I'm sure it has influenced how I view technology.

Hm, Sweden used to have huge strategic reserves, somewhere . Wonder if most if those are all destroyed or just empty.

They had great sensors from when they bought Minolta

by jacobush 7y ago
Sensor size is important because sensor sites are too damn small. Lightfield or similar trickery with maybe 20 regular cameras together with software assemble a larger sensor, could work.
