Since we're doing anecdata, I experience the exact opposite. What's most crazy to me is how somehow almost all boomers are more addicted to smartphones than gen Z and Alpha. They'll have their grandkids over, and they'll

That's not the point. They were gleeful about their behaviour. Its even more despicable than then faux-kind "oh we are so sorry for your trouble and you are a valued customer, but computer says no."

Oh, I meant within! I guess that is ambiguous, I figured within = inside, and outside = expired. I'll edit. Honestly what really egged me on was that I told them I might take them to small claims, and their response was sending a bunch

I have this vs. a TV webshop in The Netherlands that stiffed my parents because their €430 TV broke and the warranty was expiring in a few months. Anytime anyone in my social circle asks for a TV recommendation, I specifically tell them not

Again: telemetry isn't "spying" and it isn't "bugging" the application. It collects usage patterns: how often is which button being pressed by which type of user. It is not collecting data on you personally nor

Hell no. Linux desktop (and the kernel) felt awful for such a long time because everyone was optimizing for server and workstation workloads. Its the reason CachyOS (and before that Linux Zen and.. Licorix?) are a thing. For good UX, you he

Just to add a dissenting voice to all the complainers: - autofill on desktop is rock-solid, it virtually never fails, much less so than any other password manager autofill - it works great with passkeys, again rock-solid, and again the be

Here you go[0]. 'Aztek Ruins offscreen'. Although I misremembered the exact FPS, the 3090 is at 506 FPS. Also note how the M1 Ultra is pushing 2/3 of the FPS of the 3090 despite 1/3 of the power budget and the game itsel

A subset of power users want to their usage to be profiled (me, if I trust the company. Brave, Mozilla, Mullvad, 1Password, Bitwarden, Valve, companies like that). But most power users will not want that because of privacy worries. From tha

If they really were they would turn it off. And stop using Gmail and Android. The overwhelming majority of people don't care about digital privacy because the cost is opaque to them. Also, telemetry when done right isn't "spy

The problem with opt-in telemetry is that 95% of users don't change defaults, and the 5% who do are your power users. They're not representative of the average user. And only a subset of them will turn it on Ironically enough the

On Geekbench 5, the M1 hits 483 FPS and the RTX 3090 hits 504 FPS. There are other workloads where the M1 actually beats the 3090. Apple does plenty of hyping but it's always cute when irrational haters like you put them down. The M1 w

The GPU is monstrously good. Depending on the workload, the M1 series GPU using 120W could beat an RTX 3090 using 420W. Same with the CPU. Linux compiled faster on an M1 than on the fastest Intel i9 at the time, again using only 25% of the

MacOS has solved laptop suspend since the 2000s. Windows and Linux still struggle with this, especially due to the switch from S3- to S0ix-style sleep. Modern Apple laptops seem less special now but you also have to look at them through t

It does match reality. Reform wasn't passed, it was forced via a technicality after riots made it politically unpalatable, and it has put France in a governing crisis ever since. Also, retirement in North, West and Central EU is 67+, n

Interestingly enough, trading and gambling are things that a blockchain is a pretty good fit for. There is a public ledger and trace of ownership for the trades / lays. And depending on how it is set up, payout is autonomous, as long

Even Gemini with no memory does hilarious things. Like, if you ask it how heavy the average man is, you usually get the right answer but occasionally you get a table that says: - 20-29: 190 pounds - 30-39: 375 pounds - 40-49: 750 pounds - 5

Airline tickets used to be transferable. Hell, you used to be able to fly on someone else's name. 9/11 changed a lot. Just like how before World War I, passports and border controls weren't really a thing.

That seems very unlikely. Chinese AI vendors specifically pointed out that even a few gens ago there was maybe 5-15% more capability to squeeze out via training, but that the cost for this is extremely prohibitive and only US vendors have t
