Wasn't the Epic Game store also found to be a privacy nightmare? I could be wrong but I felt like that was a major reason the Heroic Game Launcher got so much traction (which is fantastic btw)

That one on paper I don't mind, I mean I don't particularly enjoy the idea of Google being able to have even more of a stranglehold on the Browser market by them pushing Chrome heavily on iOS. But yes, that is a good change that s

My PC is a single purpose device, and that is for gaming. Which considering I use Steam for many of my games (not all) that 30% commission is already there. The reality is many people use their PC's far differently than they use their

As a user, for now I am glad this is only in the EU. I am not looking forward to how this will degrade the user experience in favor of "choice" for User, when in reality its choice for the developers and Users have to follow. I ha

I agree on the DRM side, this is more based on the situation of Linux gaming. Other games have broken with a simple update that had nothing to do with DRM. I find it absurd to expect support on an unsupported platform. I put that particular

I could have sworn that deck verified was fully automated and I don't see clarification either way there, but regardless. Your point emphasizes that this is Valve's problem and not the publishers. Valve is pushing an unsupported p

To my knowledge this game was never advertised as a game to play on the Steam Deck officially. If you choose to play a game on an unsupported platform, that is your problem and not theirs. In reality it's Valve's problem since the

Solution: Fly an airline that doesn't use Boeing at all. Like JetBlue. I would say there is basically zero chance that you would be switched to a Boeing last minute with JetBlue.

No one assumes that Airbus doesn't have mechanical issues, but lets not overlook the next paragraph you decided not to quote for some reason: "Through 2015, the Airbus A320 family has experienced 0.12 fatal hull-loss accidents for

This makes me wonder, sure there is a large investment cost in creating many of those things. But is the Maintence/upgrade cost (particularly for things like the modems) the same or less than the investment to do it in the first place?

I am going to have to play with this tonight, while I know it won't be exactly the same it will give a good enough indication of what this workflow will be like. That might sway whether or not I get this thing. Being able to more optim

Sidecar is isolated though isn't it? Like I know I can use my mouse on my computer to control the Mac screen on my iPad, but I didn't think I could move my mouse over to control iPad apps? I honestly have not used that feature muc

I would say I use it to augment what already exists. I don't really want my workspace divided into equal parts, I have my primary monitor which is my largest monitor in the middle. A slightly smaller (and lower resolution) monitor to t

by nerdjon 3y ago
I was thinking about that, and that is true when one of the monitors is generally Safari. The question will be can I easily copy something from Safari on the Vision Pro to my Mac for example? Or move the mouse from my Mac Display (which wil

Same reason I don't just have an ultra widescreen monitor on my desk and I have 3 monitors instead. Separate monitors allows for better organization of different app windows than a single monitor, especially with different spaces on di

That is a good point which is really hard to get a good feel for what this will be in that regards without actually trying it. But I just don't think weight alone will be a concern given my experience with the Index. My only problems w

by nerdjon 3y ago
Yeah that is all we saw in the marketing, and I figure if it was possible they would have shown it since that would be a killer feature. I am guessing there may be some wireless bandwidth issue with transmitting more than one screen but idk

From what I can tell it is about the same weight as the Valve Index which I have been able to wear for a fairly extended period of time while doing physical activities. If I can wear that while being physical I can probably handle the Visio

Unless I have missed it (someone please correct me if I am wrong) it only does 1 screen for a Mac. But I agree, and the ability to do that really would make the price "reasonable". I mean I have 3 monitors on my main setup and one

The iPad and the iPhone were heavily criticized when they came out. While both were pushing some good tech, they were also going against the general wisdom of what made a product in each category.

by nerdjon 3y ago
Must admit, as this got closer I contemplated getting it more and more. Especially as I find myself using my laptop a lot on the couch and bed. Just the ability to have a larger screen without worrying about my physical Mac screen is a fair

What were the reasons for that consolidation? Was it just simply that a small airline is not economically viable or is it a push for larger airlines? Considering the talk around Spirit being on the verge of bankruptcy it seems like it may b

As someone who basically flys exclusively JetBlue when I have the choice, I am disappointed by this. JetBlue's biggest problem remains their access to airports, if they were able to get more access to that they would likely be a seriou

Not just YouTube, but every social media platform seems to be spammed by it. I feel like I am seeing these stupid ads almost every hour now. A ton of people jumping on the bandwagon promising insane profits from AI. But if you thought for m

While it is incredibly unlikely I will get a version one of this product without some major feature being announced. I am excited for this to come out, and to have a company that won't just abandon it actually try their hand at this. I

That is valid and that’s why I am not quite No Boeing. But it’s a last choice for me, if the choice exists and I am willing to put up with some inconveniences. Especially given that this seems to be a manufacturing problem and not a problem

by nerdjon 3y ago
I have made the decision that unless I absolutely can’t avoid it I am avoiding Boeing for the near future entirely. But a 737 max is full no go for me no matter what the situation is. I will do multiple stops before stepping foot on one. Pe

I was debating on wether or not I was even going to bother responding to this because I feel like the votes are clear... This is wild. You're comparing killing someone without evidence to protecting children. Here is the thing, you see

There is a major difference between "make the investigation of crimes easy" and being able to even know they happened in the first place. Children are incredibly vulnerable and we should be able to put basic protections in place.

by nerdjon 3y ago
That is your defense? Really? I said basic protections like... just having another adult ever see your child. That isn't a friend or family member. And I was accused of fear mongering...
