Nearly every notification (new privacy statement, new update, etc) defaults you to clicking accept all, even showing you that you hadn't previously checked them. You have to be vigilant with LG TVs, sadly.

The time to unionize was 15 years ago. But the majority didn't want to because they got theirs and screw everyone else. Now with downsizing and AI knocking at the door, funny how willing everyone is to unionize.

Highly depends on signal strength, too. Having a phone with only one bar of LTE absolutely murders battery life, so that claim is probably accurate in that circumstance.

Oddly enough, historically GM is also easiest to defeat, in just unplugging the OnStar module. No idea on the last couple model years, though.

It still has a pretty big delta, so much so SBD bought the name for nearly a billion dollars. I think a lot of people realize it's not the same old company, but apparently enough don't such that it's still profitable to sell

It's actually remarkable how long that takes. Craftsman is still chugging along 30 years later in name only.

This is rather silly. Third level domains aren't particularly unique or hard to do. It likely costs about nothing to just deprecate new registrations and keep the existing ones around. If I had to guess, they're wanting to aucti

Other than hype, what's the appeal here? I saw a couple video demos recently, and was horrified that it seemed one had to memorize a dozen key binding shortcuts to really use it. Is that rather common now? I'm just a Gnome pleb

When I started out playing Quake 1 many moons ago, when I complained about how to reach keybindings as I was using the arrow keys, a veteran player on the server told me patiently to use ESDF like a normal person. So I did, and learned, an

Motorola partnering is huge and should help this if it comes to fruition. They sell a -ton- of phones in the Americas. Best not to get on their bad side.

I'll give credit to Intel, they've always been open source friendly and I prefer to buy them because I'm not a gamer, so don't need the best. AMD is another story. Their binary closed source blobs were even worse than n

I assume it's because nvidia is a hardware company that produces world class hardware, and it's a compiler to target that. Whereas mojo is a general purpose language, and we're absolutely spoiled for choice on modern language

The US gov was giving away a ton of money to do this in rural areas. A company came and trenched miles of roadside ditches with new fiber, and ran FTTH for free in a pretty sparsely populated area. As a result, many rural areas have way be

It's frustrating, because he does do some cool things. But I had to quit following him because of his constant yarning about how he grew up not rich and made millions from Microsoft, so young people now are stupid and lazy.

Yeah, in my mind it could go one of two ways - huge luxury apartments, or tiny ones with communal amenities in the center, more similar to a dorm. While the latter may sound ridiculous, one thing I've heard over and over(and over) agai

> San Francisco has about a 30% office vacancy rate, by the way. All this means foreclosures, distressed property, markdowns, and bankruptcies. Hmm, a city in desperate need of housing has an oversupply of office space. I know it's

Not missing much. I feel like it's in many ways misguided. 6ghz ftw because 5ghz penetrates too much and causes noisy neighbor problems. Well, from my experience, 6ghz doesn't penetrate at -all-. So unless you live in a barndo

I usually agree, but X has been pretty terrible as a medium. Not sure how OP meant it, obviously. I'd created an account a year or so ago just to be able to view posts that pop up here. 3 months later I was banned for inauthentic act

I'd argue more largely that the right is a loose coalition of people with differing goals...whether it's conservatism, lower taxes, anti immigration, religious right, etc. I'm reminded how my econ professor would say that ha

Not sure they've ever done anything like this, so time will tell. I do know Motorola seems to not care much about software - they were still shipping 32 bit until embarrassingly recently, and are known for rarely updating their devices

Not anymore, but for -years- it did DNS wrong because of the author being pedantic about an RFC wording.

This one is probably the most widespread, I'd guess. To this day many online call feds 'glowies' or accuse someone of glowing in the dark.

Hundreds might be pushing it. If you as a user want a modern, high end or top of the line cell phone, you're pretty much just stuck with Apple or Samsung. Maybe Google. If you remove the minor variants each has that's just 3. We

Why is Google averse to larger batteries? The Chinese makers have been stuffing 8000ish mah batteries in rather diminutive phones for two or three years now, and Google is releasing one in 2026 with about half that.

Outside of a ribeye, I much prefer pork and eat it way more often. I'm rather selfishly afraid that everyone running from beef is going to cause the pork price to skyrocket, but I haven't seen it quite yet.

It's one of those things that you have to experiment for yourself I think. You'll get tons of advice, I already saw sous vide, reverse sear, 30 second flip, etc. My favorite? I just get a cast iron as hot as I can on the stovet

The main point I think is density - for their size datacenters typically don't hire many people.
