Speaking with my wallet. I no longer use Amazon. Though my employer users AWS. I don't have any swing over that sadly. But for my own money, no more Amazon.

Holy hell, the fact this is even a thing boggles my mind. I get that MS want's vital (to them) updates. But oof... your use case is exactly the one that will cause a shit load of pain.

Suspect this is developers snagging them since they're the cheaper option for getting their apps tested and all that. Also I hear MacMiniColo or whatever they're calling themselves these days ordered a ton of them.

Your wording choice for the title makes it seem otherwise. It makes it sound like it's some big warning or big deal. Perhaps choose your words more carefully?

I think it's simpler than this. They're shutting down the online store for PS3 systems. https://www.essentiallysports.com/sad-news-for-playstation-3... You can still access the PS3 store from the PS3, but not from

If you really want to seed stuff like that, look into a seed box. You can get some pretty cheaply with a fair bit of bandwidth. I have one I use for similar purposes. Seed things like libreoffice iso's and similar open source project t

Discovery for me is pretty good generally. I try to watch high quality content on YouTube, or at least high quality for the areas of interest for me. For that reason it really tends to recommend pretty good stuff for me.

Only solution I don't have an alternative for is YouTube. Too many of my favorite content creators are only on YouTube. But I don't use Google search, gmail, photos, maps, or a ton of other things. It's just YouTube that I us

these 40gb patches happen because they had to put assets in multiple times in such a way as to cause less seeking time on the internal hard drive. They're too slow this gen to be able to do this all without problems. So games would put

This has changed so much over time. Par for the course these days is shipping a buggy mess as a GM. Then a massive as hell Day 1 patch to fix it all. I forget the exact details but there was a game this current gen that had a 40gb day one p

In a lot of rural areas, like where I am, there is no such thing as public transportation. If you don't have a car you can maybe make due during the spring and fall months where the temperatures are reasonable. But it's going to b

As someone that uses Teams. It's not pleasant to use on a Mac. My coworkers use Windows PCs and they all have a ton of fun problems with things as well. I'm not so sure switching to Teams is a better move than Slack.

The second book was published in 2011. It has now been 9 years between books and there's no sign of book 3 anywhere. His editor posted on social media that they haven't seen even a draft of the third book. If you have hope that bo

I would suggest you look at it as not too soon, and cancelled without completing the story. Glow is one of the latest instances. They paid the actors for season 4, but never produced season 4. It left with a very unsatisfying ending. Will I

I didn't argue with the support people. I stated my concerns for what they were doing as feedback. I was going to leave it at that, but it turns out that two things are important here that continued the conversation: 1. Their response

I don't, but the wait time from when I ask my HomePod to do something and when it does it is fast enough for me that I don't much mind. If I say "Hey Siri, turn on my lamp" it turns it on within a second or so of asking.

I feel like you’ve never worked at a large company before. None of this is abnormal. And it seems based on this article that Apple responded quickly and fixed the reported issues.

Oh please... EVERY SINGLE piece of software has some security issue. Apple is no exception. Assuming they should be perfect is just petty BS and short sighted. Also, keep in mind that security and privacy, while related, are not the same th
