Unsure if this is sarcasm or not, but the name of this instance is also what IKEA calls that stuffed animal - BLÅHAJ (pronounced blow high, translates directly to blue shark).
I'm not sure you're referencing the correct statistic related to the main takeaway of this article. Nissan EV owners were the second-highest group after Tesla (63.2%) to buy another EV, they were just low on model loyalty, not switching back to an ICE.
Office365 Excel documents offer realtime cloud syncing, but at a minimum I believe autosave is a standard feature in Excel now as well. Enabling one or both should rectify pretty quickly and seems like the lowest-tech solution for them.
Do you use NightStand? That is the only thing different for me, other than 17.0.3. I know this happened at least once because FaceID said "iPhone requires a password when it restarts" and I checked for a software update, which was unchanged.
End-to-end encryption just means that the data is encrypted when it is transmitted over the internet. The camera uses on-device processing to add live effects to the camera, which is then encrypted and sent through WhatsApp.
Steam servers would have to blow up the same day it went out of business, I feel like Gabe's dying breath would be spent hitting a killswitch for DRM before the service shut down. Maybe hyperbole and naive of me but I doubt the truth is far off.
Content of the article aside, I think these business publications are running out of thesaurus entries for clickbait titles. I wouldn't consider it a "spectacular failure" that Apple could not finish a modem in time for the iPhone 15 launch, especially considering the smashing success that they've had pushing out Intel and making some of the most popular consumer electronics on the market.
Apple should eventually find success in going vertical with the modem, and when that happens, Qualcomm will learn what being difficult costs.
I have been playing Stardew Valley, which admittedly took me many years and many attempts to get into. I am now on year 3, birthdays and events no longer stress me out, but at the same time I keep discovering new things and most importantly I am still enjoying myself a lot. I think I finally understand the acclaim.
I know these Chucklehead Executive Officers only exist to enrich the companies they run and by extension, themselves, but they all seem to fail to understand that running a company is not just merge and acquire. Of course that is what capitalism wants, but there is room for there to be more than five Big Names in Gaming, and a MSFT-owned Nintendo would not be what it is today. You don't become an innovator by buying the innovative companies.
Yes, Nintendo's hardware has gradually fallen "behind the times" (if you look at raw power, generationally) but guess what? A majority of people are still willing to play Mario, Zelda, and many more quality first-party titles on potatoes as long as the games are fun.
Nintendo has taken risks and made some weird crap over the years, but that is exactly what makes them different from the other two. I don't think we would have had Nintendo Switch today without the wild consumer success of the Wii and then the massive pendulum swing of the WiiU (which was tethered to the home just like that new PS5 Portal display controller). They came to market with an R&D Wii 1.5 prototype that flopped, but that sent them right back to the drawing board to rethink it, creating the Switch, which effectively merged their console and handheld divisions.
I am not a betting person, but if I was, I would be placing my chips on the card company-turned beloved video game creator that turns 134 this week, and not the American conglomerate that thinks the entire future of gaming is subscriptions and microtransactions on the third place console.
I do not have any solutions but want to thank and show support of the admins for the continued thoughtfulness and transparency about the issues the site faces.
I am surprised by the ELI5 on how Lemmy federation works. I guess I assumed it was somehow P2P, not a mass entanglement of duplicated content, which as mentioned is a nightmare for problematic and/or illegal content.
I don't know how the creators expected Lemmy to grow with each instance's storage and hosting costs also growing exponentially as the fediverse expands.
If I am traveling out of town, I try my best to eat locally at my destination city. I would rather get the flavor of a city by its local cuisine offerings rather than from its underpaid chain fast food workers that I can suffer at home 😂
As a day one buyer, I'm happy about this. Exclusives for people who buy early or pay a premium are silly. I just happened to be fortunate and lucky enough to get my Deck earlier, but the more the merrier.
The soundtrack to QAF remains top tier. Seeing what happened to the song rights on the streaming version of the show has completely prevented me from watching it digitally, I guess we can only relive the magic through physical media or ripped versions.
I think your issue may be the direct download preference. Since a torrent file is not a hosted copy of pirated content, but merely a call sheet to other computers that are sharing it, in my experience they seem to stay up longer than hosted copies of videos. Not DMCA-immune but maybe more resistant? Private trackers aren't scraped by Google the way other parts of the internet seem to be, which is how studios and creators track down their content and play DMCA whack-a-mole. I see quite a lot of OnlyFans and Patreon content on my private torrent sites.
I may be misunderstanding what Usenet is or how it works, but this is my anecdotal experience.
I know we're supposed to just chuckle at the idea that a child is a psychopath, but there are a few legitimate holes with the meme:
The phone lines went down at the very beginning of the film from the snow storm that took a couple of days to fix.
Marv was doing recon in the beginning disguised as a cop and Kevin recognized him when he was being followed in the van.
Then the cops actually show up for a wellness check, but he doesn't know they are real and is terrified that the burglars are coming back to break in.
Kevin tries numerous harmless, inventive ways of scaring them off first, like the big party or the movie dialogue with the firecrackers, but the burglars are so stupid and persistent, they FAFO by still entering the home, where he never kills either of them, but only then do they get hurt.
It may not be a flawless film, but this gaping plot hole that the meme describes isn't quite accurate.
