Well, cloud providers aren't exactly known for performance so the comment is still valid and will be for quite some time still.

1) Lots of desktop displays provide picture and high power, but very few laptops (and rarely even desktops) can provide any significant power from their ports (can be done of course but it is a cost thing). 2) I'd say yes (if the iphon

The best feature of flash was that it was so easy to disable. Because 99% of the use was annoying ads that pinned your cpu at 100%. And that was Jobs argument, that it was too resource intensive. Predictably though, now that annoying crap m

Since you are using the official repos thats not an issue. The issue is when the package creator is some rando on the internet.

It's not like you couldn't create an IRC-client with better UI than discord. Not as many features, but whatever strength discord has it is not UI. Email really could have been great, but html and bad actors have made it so much wo

I kind of assumed the car would be locked (from the outside)? Like most regular cars have the option to.

N900 wasn't symbian, if that was what you implied. It ran Maemo 5, and I still miss it even though I never owned one myself. Unfortunately Nokia fumbled everything.

On any non-apple system it has the "natural" scroll on the touchpad AND sane scrolling behavior.

Don't really agree with that, that would have been highest bidder if anything. And it wouldn't have been much worse compared to be as careless as they have been.

Don't really buy the economic argument. For 99% pf all workloads you need at least an order of magnitude more system memory than gpu memory. Most systems barely need more gpu memory than what is required for video, browsing etc. Just b

Get a 4U case, many options if you want to combine it with a NAS. Not hard to cool and keep somewhat quiet. If you can store it in a closet or something that helps too. Well, you can use it for lots of other things as well. Compared to the

I don't know but I really doubt that. When you search for a service you get the current status and you get the option to report a problem. The minimal you expect from such a service is to keep track of how many % of users are searching

Never understood these comparisons. If you want to run OS X, buy the mac. If not buy absolutely anything else. It is that simple. Though with 8GB of ram both of these machines are lemons. If you are on the fence, do not buy the mac. Because

FYI: Site does not work in firefox focus (android) unless i turn off tracking protection (which is default on). Which was a bit confusing when I clicked the confirm-your-email link. No confirmation or status or anything.

I've had such a bad time trying to do this myself. You might get a half-way decent draft on the first try and then you start to "debug" this and after a very frustrating session you realize that the model can't properly

Sonys crap at least to my knowledge had broad compatibility. Whereas Apple often deliberately make sub-par experiences when not in their own turf. You just connected your sony-camera over usb, or just had a plastic adapter for the memory st

A bit like saying that the pictures taken on a sony-camera can be viewed on any display. Apples software only run on their own hardware and their hardware only runs their own software. It is a huge split in the ecosystem and any advance App

Before I tried coding agents my guess would have been: none. But seeing how slow claude code and copilot cli are and how much ram they use I'm flabbergasted. If you have long running sessions they can both take tens pf gigabytes of ram

All the good parts of web analytics doesn't amount to much anyway. Especially if you desire to have a usable site, which includes no cookie popups.

Arguably excel and legal are much worse than code because catching the mistakes can be much harder. Case in point, JPMorgan London Whale incident, $6 billion loss caused by an excel error...

Looks similar but is a different thing entirely. That is for allowing a someone to take money from your account. Because the concept of credit/debit cards is batshit insane that only serves to finance organized crime.
