>any valuable laptop is a tracking device anyway. You say this but I've seen countless videos of Apple stores getting raided by thugs who steal all the devices. We all know those devices will shut down and be inoperable but they don

I'm sympathetic to the title inflation issue but more on the problem of the "engineer" title, not to mention the "scientist" title. For example, I work in Data & AI and we have: - data engineer - analytics engin

Curious, what have they moved on to? Is it better than Fortnite and the other games you've identified?

Steam Deck has a tiny install base. Switch 2 does not. I'm mostly a PC gamer but let's be real here.

True but if you're referring to the fact that you can play Xbox and Xbox 360 games on newer hardware, I believe Microsoft has a team that has to individually patch these games to work for newer hardware. Sony does something similar I b

I like the idea. Current professional sports are a game of cat and mouse between team doctors and the doping agencies anyways so this should eliminate some of that shadow play.

There's a reason that when most people go to Japan they are in awe of the politeness of the people, the safety felt while walking down the street, and the overall cleanliness of the place. Contrast this to your example, America (I am a
