iirc the real point of contention was the "boundary count" rule. The super over ended in a tie, then instead of having a another super over the winner was decided based on who had hit more boundaries. I'm pretty sure this did

This along with the Aussie sandpaper-gate is probably one of the most infamous incidents in cricket history. I doubt anyone who follows cricket doesn't about it. Also the 2019 world cup finals! ;)

It's the flamebait detector. Any post which gets a lot of comments in a short time gets pushed down quickly. Though the mods usually push it back up if it doesn't involve touchy topics like politics.

That's great, but then can you ask the manufacturers of the devices to support them for 20 years? Raw numbers mean jack shit if the device itself is completely abandoned and cannot run any applications. Banking, authentication and bunc

Realistically this will just be used to force people into even more subscriptions. Want to edit a video? Pay a subscription for a Microslop Pro Max Windows $50/mo, then pay another $50 the NVidia Pro GPU add-on (the gaming version is s

It's 2026, the _WANTS_ are reserved for the ultra wealthy. The rest of us plebs should be happy we're getting 1500 calories everyday with a room to go back to in the evening, after increasing shareholder value everyday. Oh and don

I think it does, since the updates are from the manufacturer. I have a OnePlus tablet configured without an account and I'm able to update it no problems.

Surprisingly no, you can use an Android phone without an account. Though you cannot install any applications from the Play Store, tbf I'll count that almost as a positive.

Most major platforms already have enough asset flips cluttering their storefronts[1][2] -- generic games made from preexisting engine templates with some assets bought from the store. Using AI will just make producing the slop easier, it wo

I use them to buy refurbished enterprise machines -- laptops & mini PCs, books and DVDs/BluRays. Works pretty well actually, never had any issues with the quality as long as you stick to reputed sellers.

Funny how the vibe-coding speed grinds to 0 the moment people catch on to their bullshit. A name change requires a week but shitting out 200 commits with Claude takes barely a month.

Been using their latest models for work for the past 5 years, I still use a Latitude for personal work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe because I don't want my personal machine to turn into a brick if the storage/memory fails.

If the dev team had a nickel for every time someone complained about the name, there would have enough money by now to fund the development of a UI revamp. Now if they had a nickel for everytime someone complained about the bad UI...

Were computers common in schools in India in the early 90s? I was born in 1993, so this is a bit early from my time, but when I was in a (government) school computers started appearing in the early 2000s. They became common in households wa

Probably a dumb question, but how do you guys decide (and source) the book covers? I love how they look, but as a philistine can't put into words why. Also thanks for doing this, I've read a bunch of stuff (GK Chesterton, Dorothy
