They mention it in the article, but I think its purely for donations, so you can subscribe to donate on a monthly basis

I don’t know much apart from the basics of YAML, what makes it complicated for computers to parse?

I mean, you can change your passwords later on if you think a quantum computer broke them. In the case of quantum computers your network traffic is also gonna get cracked anyways, so they can steal your account information through that as well.

I think you misread the title.

Idk man, I regularly reinstall Windows (cca. every 6 months) to get rid of bloatware and random stuff I installed and don’t need anymore. It’s a pretty smooth experience, though it would be a major pain if your circumstances ever occured.

I mean, a lot of the points are valid, but the Pixel phones are pretty great, Android is pretty great and getting better, and the Chromebook gamble is playing a really long term game where they could end up uprooting Microsoft if they play their cards right. From my understanding, US kids now on average know Chromebook OS better than Windows by far, and will probably prefer to continue using it if they could. If Google makes the OS more viable for professional use and flexible and play their cards right, they’d have a really good chance at uppending Microsoft’s dominance, especially since Microsoft is seemingly trying to shoot itself in the foot with Windows.

Had a period here where it was like 4 on average, now it’s usually 1-2, trying to make it midnight or 23, but that hasn’t happened in like 5 years probably so doubt.

Well I personally need my laptop for collage as well. And it comes in handy if it has a powerful GPU if I need to do anything more intensive on it (e.g. machine learning or game dev). Steam Deck wouldn’t really be adequate there. And even if it wasn’t for my usecase (which isn’t representative of every student), most students will probably still need a laptop to bring with themselves sometimes to collage, and if they also want to game, makes sense to buy a gaming laptop instead of a gaming PC + a regular laptop.

When I get a job and settle down, I definitely plan on getting a PC. It just has so much more bang for the buck, and you can actually use the entire performance. My laptop basically overheats immediately if there’s an intense load on it, even though it has the raw power to actually run it. But the reality is that currently, as a student, a gaming laptop is a lot more practical to me.

For students a gaming laptop makes a bunch of sense, since taking a PC with you back an forth every time you go back home can be a major hassle.

I mean regular people don’t know how to read it, except if you randomly decided you wanted to. It’s pretty big culturally, e.g. the Baška tablet is a very important piece of history written in glagolitic that everyone knows about, and I’ve seen the alphabet randomly displayed in a few places, but nobody actually uses it today.

Damn, wild Glagolitic script found. I didn’t even realise it was in the Unicode standard.

To be fair, this could be very make or break for Google. If someone else solves AI search properly, and they can’t catch up, it would be really bad for them. G+/Facebook were another market completely so it wasn’t really taking any of their current market share.

But I do think they are panicking a bit too much.

I’m pretty sure any petty theft is very hard to track down. Not just bikes, if someone broke into your house and stole some minor things it’s almost certainly not gonna get found. Bikes are the same, it’s very easy to resell them and repaint, and nobory registers bikes.

Do you mean at the end? I can’t live without it, I feel kinda claustrophobic if I can’t scroll below the actual text.

To be fair, he is partially right. It’s insane that games have basically been the same price since forever, the only reason they stayed the same is cuz more people could afford computers/consoles and in contrast to every other industry, making a new either physical or digital copy of a game is dirt cheap, so the more users the more profit.

Idk if it actually makes sense for games to be more expensive yet tho.

Where did this happen (i.e. which country)?

It’s not hard for me to cry because of a TV show, but for personal reasons I probably haven’t cried in 4 years at least, probably more but idk.

Linus explored that bug, it’s not so much with recent laptops as it is with Windows sleep in general. For some god forsaken reason, if your laptop is connected to a network while plugged in and you put it to sleep, and then unplug your laptop from the power, it will burn through its battery and die. This doesn’t happen if you unplug your laptop before you put it into sleep mode. My guess is that while it’s plugged in, Windows thinks it’s fine for it to run a bit hotter, but when you unplug it while it’s in sleep mode, it doesn’t realise it’s not plugged in anymore and drains the battery. Idk how they have still not fixed this after many years, but it is still a problem.

It would probably cost tens or hundreds of millions to produce an entire car to those tolerances.

Like that tolerance is literally insane.
