The media just have to report the removal of ad blocking as a security/safety issue. If users are made aware that what Chromium is doing, they can make a better decision, but it has to be called out in every post about Chromium (prefer

I had great results combining the two. If you (or your employer) can afford then you can ping-pong the models in the plan phase (not really ping-pong as humans should get a say too) and then let one implement and the other review. I got bet

I grew up in/with cars which would score 0 (more like -3 to -5) and made it to adulthood, so I have a feeling that these features are not strictly neccesary. At the same time what if it saves at least one life a year? (same goes for ri

My only problem with the Neo is that the base config has a good price, but if I want 512GB storage it reaches into the usable PC category. Usable for me: 16GB/512GB, Arc/RDNA 3.5 GPU Different tradeoffs obiously: light, good scree

This seems to be a product management hickup. Call it either something else or add the functionality to WordPad.

The cheapest machine with Linux in the Australian Dell store is 13000 AUD (~9000 USD). You can buy many things for that money.

I remember getting a copy of SubLogic Flight Simulator II on a cassette. It was a longer tape than a 90m standard cassette and it was 2 sided. Loading times were crazy on that! (Eastern EU context) Cracked games came with speed loader &quot

My user experience on a Pixel 6 Pro was better than on the iPhone 15 Pro Max (had to switch for family reasons). I do not take away from Apple that their customer service is top notch and for many users that matters as much as how good the

I think it has the opposite effect on housing. Big cities are built for many ppl. Allowing 100% remote work makes it possible to move to smaller towns/cities, which are not prepared for the extra intake. Many towns struggle with this e

Don't forget to check the screens on Lenovo laptops. Their prices, other specs and keyboards are usually good, but then the display is either low res or dim. The T16 comes with the following display in Australia: 16.0" WUXGA (1920

I think there is more to that. As in maybe Apple hw buyers are not that interested in gaming on it? For most a console make more sense and if someone wants gaming a gaming PC/Laptop usually a better deal. As far as I know MoltenVK (Vul

It might be true, but it only means that don't learn/teach languages to gain cognitive advantages. As a tool language is useful for many things. Gaining access to other culture(s) is one of the most amazing ones for me.

The thing that sets him off is that he is using a computer with enormous computing power and everything is slow. He does have a narrow view, but it does not make his claims invalid. I liked that his POC terminal made in anger made the Windo

First step should be: get a cheap TN display and make sure that the page is readable. (The buttons are horrible, but I gave up the hope that modern design will care about usability.)

https://booko.com.au/ is a great example of this. You search the title first, then you can select the concrete book/edition on the next page, then a nice list of options.

That is what I liked about good TV channels. Good curated content combined with shared experience. Customised feeds took this away from us, disconnecting us even further. I guess the Metaverse (or anything alike product) will try to exploit

When I overloaded my Intel Mac it did the same thing. MacOS is just not that great under pressure. Bluetooth regularly dropped out even with just one build running, when I started 2 at the same time (iOS+Android) there was always a chance f
