I wouldn't say dog slow. Because it implies some kind of comparison to a breathing entity. I would say, it kills my iOS, my MacBook and my Linux. It's shit. I thought my iPhone 13 was broken, but it turns out, if I never start Fir

For some strange reason, I’m better at sewing than both my wife and mother-in-law. I learned it in public school when both genders learned both woodworking and sewing, and maintained an interest so that I could wear “grunge” in the 1990s. T

I’d love to see a write-up on that. Especially in the unlikely event that you used Nix for the deployment.

I've tried clicking and double-clicking. Are you sure this works on Firefox? I don't feel like buying a square that I can't click myself.

I think you buy squares.

Thank you for sharing this American joke. Standard ML was my go-to language for many years. I always found SML/NJ complicated both to compile and use, compared to... ...well, pretty much every other compiler: Moscow ML, Poly/ML, M

I avoided firmware updates on my Samsung TV and removed as many built-in apps as possible. It used to start in quiet mode looking for a source. Then my renter updated the firmware because of a popup. Now I’m forced to start one of the comme

The $10/mo. plan is technically not "without AI". You still have FastGPT (quick answers), meaning any query ending with "?" aggregates an answer based on the scraping of the top search results, rather fast. And you

It’s been two years since I googled anything. They’re superior at finding shops on Maps. But for common search, they’re mediocre and untrustworthy, hiding real results way down below irrelevant spam. Who trusts an advertising company with s

It’s without exception. I’m sure it’s just because he likes money, and because we have very little in common.

What roenxi is saying is that if heatpumps weren't being forced on people, they wouldn't be controversial. If solar panels were forced on people, they would be equally opposed. Transition to solar/wind is temporarily costly t

C# is god software, too. Yeah, Microsoft is a big place. I heard the Acquired podcast episode on Microsoft, and I can’t pretend that their business strategies failed; they didn’t, and arguably it is the most successful company in history. I

I can’t believe people didn’t stay on Windows 7. It seems to have slid into some always-online ad-filled cloud hellhole since. Office365 is worse than Office 2000. This is the OEM strategy still at play. You gotta hand it to Bill Gates for

Windows is the first thing that gets deleted on a new PC. An acquaintance of mine works for Microsoft. Every time I meet him, he always tells me how much money hey makes. I'm sure it's double of what I earn when I have a good year

There’s a culture war about heat pumps? I know that the taxation on renewables is always touchy because the technology and how electricity gets routed and used changed faster than tax law.

It makes sense for Germans to react negatively to the salute regardless of its intent. It is, after all, banned in Germany.

> Would it be better if they called Elon a fascist? He did the fascist salute, after all. No, you mean to say “nazi salute” because it was used by NSDAP during WWII. The point here is that “nazi” now means “baddie”, and “fascist” is ev

Somehow you have convinced yourself that posting enough small things that could suggest that Musk is a nazi, but don’t really, add up to one convincing argument that he is. No, just post one good summary or obviously revealing incident. And
