I use iCloud keychain - has there been any reason to suspect this is an idiotic move, especially when coupled with twofactor auth on important sites? Really important stuff is of course handled in other ways..

After trying out their adwords platform for a year combined with the fact that search in general has plummeted in quality i can't wait for them to crash completely. Adwords is such a scummy endeavour that squeezes more or less all comp

Interesting. So that's why latency seems to have become worse in all aspects of personal computing / smartphones. Time from "push button" to "something happens on screen", was faster 20 years ago in some aspect

We really need this, because if it's only the absolute economic elite that will have access to this 99.9999% of people are going to be dominated, psyopped, outworked, censored and drowned in noise whether on the "left" or &qu

I appreciate action too but i mean, character or world building is not that hard and doesn't really require that much when a 30 second commercial can give you enough backstory to (unwillingly) empathise with someone. Theres a differenc

No they are just better. I watched them years later and not as a kid and they're just great. It's about the pacing, pauses and slower character and world building. Newer movies are built for second screening and maximising action

Knowing little about how the FSD chip works, is the fact that it runs locally and not on some super cluster a bottleneck in performance right now? The fact that it's only in the last year or so that Stability/OpenAI and efficient

I've had no problems just writing: "continue the code from above example" or something akin to that - across 25+ full app prompts. There has been a few times where the app hangs with the three dots jumping - but that seems to

We want compactness in a laptop, not "bonus" screen space that's only usable for some useless part of the OS when we have to actually carry it around everyday for multiple years and it makes the screen have a huge top border.
