It did dip right after, but tourism by number of visitors picked up again shortly after. See e.g. figure 10.2 in https://repository.lib.fsu.edu/islandora/object/fsu:539161/d... . The Governor's office wou

IDK about misguided, but I just went to the Dell website, went to support, looked up the Inspiron 16 Plus model 7640, and promptly found an Intel RST driver [0]. I am not disputing your experience at all, but it is weird to me that we'

There's also owntone, formerly forked-daapd. It implements DAAP, which is what iTunes/Apple Music uses. Works with Rhythmbox, at least. IDK if there is a compatible Android client.

Made me think of Total Recall, which was adapted from "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale," looks like from 1966.

Naively, you'd think that if demographics break down 50/50 between the sexes, then 60% of men being single means 60% of women are single too. But that's not the case; the article says men in their 20s are single at twice the

I think it's personality and experience. Agreeableness and openness to new experiences are 2 of the 'Big 5' personality traits. Some people are very likely to see everything as an opportunity, assume positive intent, and want

I didn't like this number either, but it's more mainstream than you think. For example, from last year: https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/3868557-most-yo... . This is an opinion article citing

I don't think it was absurd, just unrealistic. I replied here because I felt like it, but thanks for your feedback.

That's not what I was asking, but I think I didn't word my question very well. I think Smart TVs cost more to produce than they could, because they include hardware for automated content recognition and other ad/data-related

This comment was flagged and I vouched to reply. This general issue should be of concern to everyone, because we're starting to see 'smart monitors' from the big vendors as well. More people need to be aware of what's go

What is the up-front price impact of these ad services? Or, what would a representative 'smart tv' cost if the vendor only needed to accommodate apps and upscaling/pq stuff, and did not need ACR on the TV and the backend infr

Hypercorrection. I think it's historically been OK to refer to any person using they/them/their. More recently, even in progressive circles I think, it's still OK as long as you don't have information about the pers

Is that true? Off the top of my head I think GDPR in the EU might have something to say about this. I don't know if those protections exist anywhere else or not. In the US, people get very upset about things like traffic cameras, and p

Sarcastically, no one should. Unsarcastically, a lot of people believe user data belongs to users, and that they should have a say in how it's used. Here, I think the point is that Niantic decided they could use the data this way and w

What do you do when duplicate serial numbers start showing up? I'm assuming you won't know who was issued which serial number, and if it's truly randomized you wouldn't even know where they were sent.

I wonder if they bought these on purpose, or if the monitors were provided by their employer. That looks like an office. It's hard to sympathize with someone buying one of these in 2024 and then being outraged that it wants to do ad tr

It's only if you qualify as a 'covered expatriate' though. I'm not a lawyer or an accountant but a plain reading of the standard suggests the vast majority of Americans would not be covered. https://www.irs.go

I think there's a balance that some people don't appreciate. Hacking your health has some additional risk vs. some external system or process; your health is often irreplaceable, and you might not get a second chance if you screw

Note this is less about Android being worse than iOS and more about the play store and Google services not being available in China, so people can't install the Microsoft Authenticator app from a trusted location.

My immediate thought is that Sun beat both of these guys to market with the T1 20 years ago. Not exactly the same thing, but I wonder how close to the same idea they are; the line seems to have stopped with the M8, which is a 32c/256t

There is a maximum. It's also the case that your social security income is capped, too. I think that a person earning a million dollars a year for 35 years doesn't look any different to social security than someone earning 200k a
