A google search shows that it depends on the outlet doing the interview: https://www.google.com/search?q=Craig%20Federighi%20intervie... Mac centric sites just do "An interview with Craig Federighi" or something l

Does it make them money? No? Is it something that will make the conservative base unhappy if we eliminate it? No? Then eliminate it. Greenland is about shipping lanes and minerals.

I think there are too many swimming events in the Olympics. If the same few people win most of the medals then maybe the events are too similar. Please eliminate two. PS I am NOT a crackpot

Since Windows 11 incorporated libarchive back in October 2023 there is less reason to use 7-zip on windows. I would be surprised if any of my friends even know what a zip file is let alone zstd.

That is one of the things that really bugged me about the most recent sequel. Minor inconsequential spoilers .. .. The research facility has geothermal heating which stretches for miles and an enormous underground tunnel system. How did the

It is interesting that Everquest 1 and 2 are still around. Apparently enough people are still paying for these and other MMOs to keep the company in business https://www.daybreakgames.com/home

I've noticed this in a few things the last few years. The top and bottom of the shot are out of focus and it is super distracting to me. Maybe it is meant to draw the eye to the middle of the frame.

film grain adds realism in the same way that high frame rate films look wrong or vinyl sounds "warmer" or tube guitar amps sound "better" - It is what we are used to.

I remember years ago when digital projection was just becoming the norm. I saw a movie (I don't remember which one) and during the opening scene I remember thinking "why are the credits jittering around? Oh. This is actually being

And even in that article it states: "If you use only the sites that currently have good siting versus those that have not-so-good siting, when you look at the adjusted data basically you get the same trend," said Jay Lawrimore, ch

I may be cynical but I think this is all marketing. From what I've seen there is so much upselling built into the concept that if this ever comes out that I don't think many people will be driving around the 20K model.

in 2021 my beloved Honda Fit got totaled. I bought it new in 09 and only had 80K miles on it. They don't sell new ones in North America any more. So I bought a Kia Rio. They don't make those any more. I don't really like it b

Conversely, as an American, the only time I've had my luggage poked through was coming back into the USA. I don't remember if they were armed though.

Same here. I am in a small midwestern USA city of less than 100k people. Someone got a grant to build some housing. Instead of building affordable housing they tried to build a huge "luxury" apartment complex with rent way above a

Interesting idea but the page needs a gallery or something so you can get an idea of what the results look like. Right now there's an abstract image and a picture of a mountain range. Were both of those made with the app?

Unless it is something really really good I don't think they do. The one that was in my town a couple years ago would post pictures on facebook of all the best things they had in order to entice people to come in.

I teach at a community college and unless it is sports, most people, especially (but not limited to) young people, don't watch much tv or movies at all. I try to give examples from current tv shows and rarely have any of the students s

I don't get what people love about Andor. The prison break episode was good but the flashbacks to the kids in the jungle were horrible and the funeral with instruments straight out of Fat Albert's junkyard band were laughable.

I definitely remember walking through the dorm parking lot when I was in grad school and noticing that at least half of the cars were much nicer than the car I was driving.
