There are at least three issues with this idea: 1. Not every sex worker are doing it for the money only. Many do enjoy doing this. Not every person goes to sex workers for sex but more of a "hired" companionship. 2. Demand for sex

It's not, it's an Electron-based app (not bad by default). Even says so on their Github page: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop Unless you're using a non-official version?

Is there any work being done to revert the requirements of cookie banners, age consent, etc? These are all utterly pointless and easy to bypass. While we're at it, get rid of the forced "piracy is harmful" ads on every media

While I agree in general, I do want to point out this is a still a lightweight entry level laptop SoC compared to a desktop GPU you've mentioned. It can also run in fanless mode like in MBA m1. A more modern comparison with mobility GP

Can you expand on what you mean? There are plenty of competition in the OS space, Linux: (Canonical (Ubuntu), IBM (RedHat/Fedora), System76 (Pop!_OS)), MS, Apple, Google, and so on. How would using Android or AOSP (open) as the platfor

Just to clarify, I don't see it as a revolution at the moment but I do think my M1 MBA is a game-changer for me. The biggest change is that I haven't had to worry about battery and heat at all. My old rMBP wouldn't last me ha

Surface Pro X is a great hardware device but it is definitely not a great software experience. Same problems with the old Surface RT with the ARM chip, backward compat with existing software made the whole experience difficult for almost al

I suspect they do not want to mention it because fab process advantage isn't easy to understand as they're not all the same. For an example, TSMC's 7nm process is more comparable to Intel's 10/14nm process [^ 1]. It

No, Rosetta 2 is the solution for running x86 macOS apps on Apple Silicon Macs (arm64). This is for virtualizing an entire environment/OS like Linux (ARM only likely), it has nothing to do with Mac apps. There's also not enough in

Well, in US, that probably is because of several reasons: 1. Lack of central organization, it's easier to work with and pay a single private company or a contractor than hiring folks and working with open source projects that usually h

There aren't any as far as I know (if you're asking for actual real life code), WinUI 3 is still very alpha stage. The first actual release is going to be later this year with .NET 5.0 release. You can look at their community tool

Agreed, VSCode is my favorite text editor, WSL2 looks to be awesome (I'm waiting for VMware to use it since VMware is required for my job), Github, WinUI looks awesome, etc. Windows is slowly becoming a very developer friendly platform

I didn't say it does, I'm just saying that it'll be easier. Instead of working on both x86/ARM frameworks, they'll just stop supporting x86 (freeze) and only update on the ARM framework from now on. They did the sam

That is true, I don't have any evidence to say that x86 isn't faster or equal against Apple's ARM CPUs or vis versa. They're hard to come by since they're both completely different arch. For JS: https://t

Of course, we should care. We are talking about losing the standard x86 platform support (which allows for Windows/Linux support if not total OOB support) to a custom Apple platform that may be more locked down to the point that Linux

You didn't restore from an old Time Machine backup onto your rMBP right? If not, it sounds like a defective unit. I'd strongly recommend taking it to Apple Store. I had no issues with laggy keyboard input, freezes and battery life
