The Vampire is way overpriced and the extensions it adds are useless because they only work on other Vamprire machines. The PiStorm is much, much cheaper, and emulates a standard 68k while continuing to use the Amiga chipset.

That is insane value for money, if you don't mind the stigma of owning a Tesla. It seems like a used Tesla would be a better deal since most of the parts don't wear out and require maintenance like a petrol car. You can even check

I presume you're using the Pro, not the Max. Anyways, what ram config, and what model are you using?

OpenAI is a financial black hole, burning cash faster than it can raise it, with a business model built on hype and a product (ChatGPT) that's easily commoditized. Their revenue projections are delusional, and the core API business is

What exactly does the Xeon do in this situation, is there a reason you couldn't use any other x86 processor?

Is there a particular reason LibreWolf doesn't have automatic updates? It does seem a little inconvenient. I'm currently using Safari + AdGuard, which updates with the OS and from the App Store.

You can replace the ChromeOS bootloader with upstream Coreboot and use SeaBIOS or edk2 payloads to turn it into a generic x86 laptop and install Linux.

Mozilla literally chose the worst possible time to change the Firefox terms. They could be scooping up disgruntled Chrome users, yet all they did was generate a load of negative noise.

To be fair, macOS isn't much better in this regard, the error codes can be quite cryptic, for example what is a -2003F. For some reason, a game I play called DCS can be buggy and I've been told by the support to sfc /scannow

The built-in bloatware (LinkedIn, TikTok, Clipchamp, etc.), the constant nagging (like full-screen reminders to buy Office 365 to "protect" your PC), Edge is basically forced on you. MSVC has insane licensing terms — you can’t use

Orion looks pretty interesting, it's not like any of the other alternative browsers (opera, vivaldi, brave, arc etc) which just wrap Chromium in more junk. It uses WebKit which is optimised for Apple platforms, giving more battery life

Side note: Why does Mozilla pay their CEO $6.9 million as of 2022 [0] while seemingly mismanaging their business? As a Firefox user, Mozilla feels like a hollow company with little impact, existing primarily to give Google the appearance of

Are you using anything new in iOS 17? It would be nice to be able to run it on my iPhone which is stuck on 16.2 because of TrollStore and Dopamine

I'm not quite buying the 'security' argument, all recent iPhones and iPads have hardware virtualisation capabilities. Apple can simply run the 'unsafe' applications in a virtual machine, and combine that with the ex

Thanks, all of the mini usb cables I've tried are fairly long (~1m). I'll try and find a short one and see if it fixes it.

ACL is fantastic, gotten my 2017 MacBook Pro 15" fixed multiple times for free even out of applecare, last time it was fixed, it was 6 years old. Had issues with the keyboard, and the screen. Seems to be a common issue with this model.

I have this exact one, and I don't reccomend using it with the Saleae Logic software, it constantly drops out and has issues enumerating. Haven't tried sigrock yet.

Apple has built a reputation for supporting progressive causes like (RED) for AIDS relief, LGBTQ+ rights, and racial equity, yet now they’re funding a platform rife with hate speech and extremism.

I love Linux and run it on my servers, but on the desktop, it requires too much tinkering—I often spend more time troubleshooting than working. Laptops are especially problematic, with issues like Wi-Fi, sleep, and battery life. Windows is
