I think the market agrees with you as well. The going rate for a 512GB Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra in like new condition is somewhere in the £600-£700 region. The equivalent S23 Ultra, with only minor specification differences as far as I can

I'm adding another comment and eating humble pie because I found out this evening that the Samsung keyboard application saves up to 100 items in the Samsung Keyboard clipboard in plain text, with no way to set any kind of auto clear an

Yeah, Samsung collects data and sells it. So does every other company. Not going to stop me using the phone. At least Android actually asks me every time if I want to opt into a service or not. If Apple want me back, they can: - Build a Dex

I was a long time iPhone user for about 15 years - never had an Android. My iPhone 8 Plus finally reached end of support for OS updates and I'd heard great things about Samsung Dex so I ordered a Samsung Ultra S22 last week and I absol

Driving license and passport photos are the same in the UK now. When you get your passport photo taken now the photo booth gives you a digital link which you put in the application. And then when you renew your driving license it uses the p

Co-Op alone is seeing a 1,000 incidents of shoplifting a day at the minute[1]. I'm wary of governments overstepping the mark and using this stuff for ill, but I'm leaning on the side of this being a legitimate use case. Of course,

It's sad if the only way voice actors are going to be able to make a living is by doing stuff like Critical Role on Youtube. I love Critical Role but it likely wouldn't be the same if those guys hadn't spent years honing thei

At least in America, the majority of actors are part of the unions who are already acting as a database of sorts, it's not unimaginable that they could assign everyone a key and start offering this as a service, especially in a few yea

I've never tried programming in them and they're not particularly insulating but you might wish to consider Mechanix Original Tactical Gloves as they come in lots of sizes, fit snugly and don't take away too much dexterity. T

Supply and demand will apply, but there's both a massive internal backlog (at least in the UK) as well as a massive backlog internationally. Globally, the population is still growing so the demand for essential medical treatment is onl

Supposedly it never used to be this nuts. It mainly came about because of one cokehead surgeon at John Hopkins who got in charge of the training program because of his "increased productivity" and basically started forcing these i

I feel exactly the same way but it's highly unlikely. I do think that we will see some kind of gesture recognition tech built into the Apple watch which will allow us to type without any keyboard at all. There's already a product

I went down the split keyboard rabbit hole for a bit, starting with a ZSA moonlander followed by a corne and then a ferris sweep but ultimately came to the conclusion that it's just too much hassle. The former was way too bulky to take

Closest thing is probably the ZSA Voyager, but choc keys + case is still a fair bit higher than a Magic Keyboard

Kit Betts-Masters has some good videos on this and other Boox devices, I think he said that the regulations on entering the phone market are a bit of a nightmare which is why this doesn't have mobile phone capability at the minute. ht

What would the counterpart be if a product was found not to be complying with hardware regulations, such as an electronics device that was found to be a fire risk? Who gets penalised/fined, the seller, the importer, the company who mad

But isn't the hope that if we get these apps right, then the competence of the leadership and the staff doesn't matter so much anymore, just the drive of the individual student?

I still hold out hope that Silicon Valley will take over the education system before then. I've recently started Math Academy and I'm quite impressed with it. Duolingo still needs work but it's improving. I think (hope?) tool

My personal view of this is that the ancients had it right with the five elements view of consciousness. In my opinion you need all five present for full consciousness, with partial consciousness granted if you have some of them. They are:

In my head, the incentive would be companies could save the time and effort that they're investing in Docker/K8s as well as getting better security because of the memory safety. Would that not be enough to warrant the shift, at le

What makes you think hyperinflation is coming? If anything, inflation seems to have peaked and is now starting to fall. The only way I can see hyperinflation happening is if there’s another major conflict, climate change causes some major s
