   I imagine it works if they are still doing it, but I think is worst. As soon as a brand comes with simpler naming, it can steal your customers.

   I call it the Toothpaste Dilemma: When you go to buy toothpaste, like Colgate or most brands, you're bombarded with so many options. It gets worse when you read the labels—everything seems either identical or has massive overlaps. It&#

   "They’re replacing all of these old brands with Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max, and within each of these, there will be three tiers: Base, Plus, and Premium." I am a Lenovo guy myself, however I like what they are trying to do.

   I really like it. My only concern would be the controls. It feels weird compared to doom or fortnite for some reason.

   100% agree. I call it the "toothpaste paralysis." It’s like when you’re shopping for toothpaste, and brands like Colgate have so many overlapping options that it becomes impossible to figure out which one is actually the best. Unf

   I am not a US citizen, nor I live there. However, I trust the Chinese goverment much less than the US one. So I get the banning if they really believe they could have a trojan horse. What I don't get is, what guarantees you that there

    What puzzle or intelectual competition does a game like Fortnite provide? I mean, there are lots of things, like coordination, reflex, but I don't see much intelectuality. Maybe learning where to be?

    The reciprocity is between you and me. If you do something bad to me, I can do something bad to you. Is not that if you do something bad to yourself I need to do something bad for myself.

    COVID only made it worst, as companies took advantage of COVID to inflate prices.

    Yes, COVID made it even worst. But this has been happening since before COVID.

    When I hear "America’s economy is soaring," I can’t help but think it probably just means the rich are getting richer. Don’t get me wrong—I’m not a communist. But it’s clear to me, especially when you look at how the middle class

    I completely agree about the importance of defaults. I’ve always believed in the phrase: “It’s the defaults, stupid.” In my experience, 90% of users just stick with whatever defaults they’re given, while the other 10% are the power users wh

    I really like it, but the upgrade prices are a major drawback. In the EU, the base Mini model with 256GB of SSD costs 700 EUR. Upgrading to a more practical 1TB adds an extra 460 EUR, bringing the total to 1,159 EUR. It’s frustrating that A

    Yes, KDE6 surprised me in a good way. I still prefer the other desktops, but I know I can use KDE just fine.

    What I understand is that people that use multiple desktops they do because they might have 2 apps not fully maximized in desktop 1, another 3 in desktop 2, etc. But for me, I have maximized maximized apps 99.9% of the time, so I can not se

    I’ve always wanted to like GNOME—it’s polished and has an undeniable appeal—but I just can’t get behind its UI metaphor. For my workflow, simplicity is key. That’s why I prefer desktops like XFCE, Budgie, or Cinnamon (edit: or KDE). Even MA

    You are right, but the article says that 1 yard is 1 meter. Which is not that far for a simple calculation. For anything more serious, I would use some sort of calculator.

    I have been living in Berlin for 8 years. It is short, but not less than 15 minutes. The other option is US healthcare, were you can go banckrupt if you get sick. I prefer the EU way thank you very much.

    I couldn’t disagree more. Tipping was originally meant as a nice gesture for exceptional service. But nowadays, specially in the US, it’s become a ‘tip because my boss is too cheap to pay me a fair wage’ situation. Don’t get me wrong—I love

    100 cms is a meter, so, if meters equal yards, 1 cm is 1/100 of a yard.

    A Döner costs betwen 5 and 10. If you tip between 1 or 2 euros, you are paying about 20% more. So 10%~15% increase seems about expected at least mathematically. But still, do not promote tiping culture. It sucks.
