Elop was the trojan horse that killed Nokia. He worked at MSFT prior to this and single handedly destroyed Nokia. The N9 was revolutionary on its own; GPU accelerated UI, sleek looks, Maemo OS, it is a device people would actually want over

It’s a company that makes speakers. Unbelievable that it can have such value to be able to be listed on NASDAQ. My Google Home costs $30 second hand, don’t sound as good, but I’ve not spent a single cent on it after setting it up. What is S

You do not want and cannot have a startup run these critical services. Just reeks of VC opportunists and cash grab.

Apple shipped “Apple Intelligence” before Apple even invented the term. Before the AI craze you could search Photos on iOS based on content and metadata. You could lift subjects off photos with a long tap and copy them, recognize faces and

Removing those content will make user experience worse and make AutoDesk harder to use (or learn on your own). Just let it (autodesk) die.

I’ve came across Acer laptops that’d always bluescreen on restart after a PROCHOT shutdown. The fix is to pull out the battery for a few seconds and then plug it back in, magically fixes the bluescreen.

Ultimately people care only about what they see, not what they cannot see. An OS is useless if it can’t run Microsoft Office or the thousands of other Windows-only printer drivers. Not to mention the “where’s my start button” crowd.

Of course they see no value in it, because most of them don’t even know they’re using it. Apple don’t usually market these features, but they had to this time round.

To most Apple users, the most important version is the latest version. My experience with Apple backup is, please turn every backup on so you’ll max out your iCloud storage. There’s no way to tell iOS or MacOS to backup to a self hosted tar

YouTube’s best interest is ad, and having more content to retain you, the consumer, on the platform as long as possible would be their main goal. Every single online content platform operates in the same way. Their KPI is number of hours sp

I sell bike parts on the side ( https://bike-parts.cc and a few others). Plugs into my cousin’s ERP system with a middleware that I wrote. Everything is hosted at home, integration, DB on a 500mbps home internet :).

Yes they all support punching holes, in fact, I’m punching holes right now, otherwise I won’t be able to reply. But if you don’t punch, then there’s no hole. Your TCP stack is unlikely to accidentally punch port 3398 when you’re browsing hn

Old stuff feels better because people are familiar with it. People grew up with them and if anything their expectations are set by those very things.

The entire modern Windows ecosystem is a dark pattern. Had to OOBE setup a Windows PC, it was an endless stream of nag prompts, all the way to the desktop. Extremely annoying to use.

I’m commenting on the general attitude the west has toward Chinese tech. But I cannot delete that comment now.

Almost twice as fast as M2 Pro while using half as much energy. How is Apple able to pull this off as a consumer hardware company. What is Intel et. al. doing all these years?
