Language evolves. Why is a computer program not an “app(lication)” exactly?

That’s technically correct, but actually wrong.

This might be the dumbest take I’ve heard today.

Everything your smartphone does your laptop can do, too. Therefore, smartphones are useless!!

Everything AR can do that your smartphone can do today will be a hundred times more convenient because you don’t have to carry a slab of glass with you all the time. You just have to wear glasses. Like I already do anyway.

The only reason for smartphones to still exist in a world where AR is compact will be if we can’t figure out a way to efficiently input data without annoying everyone around us. As soon as that problem's solved, nobody will be using smartphones anymore.

Yep, that’s why I was thinking of that example 😄

I agree. But unfortunately, nobody gives a flying fuck.

In theory, there’s a Million awesome business applications for it.

Let’s say you’re in construction and your glasses tell you exactly what to build where and how.

You’re a waiter and the glasses tell you which table ordered what, needs attention, etc.

You’re a network engineer and the glasses show you on every port which device is connected.

And don’t even get me started on the military applications.

Of course we’re not there yet. But that’s why they’re so obsessed with it. They want to be the first.

That mitigation timeline is brutal.

I feel like if AI would’ve written this, it would make more sense. This reads more like a fever dream.

A non-issue??? That is absolutely an issue, because 90% of consumers won’t know about this fix. It’s outrageous that a consumer facing brand introduces such arbitrary vendor lock-ins, especially without reason. It’s just like HP with their ink lock. An absolute dick move and should not be supported in the slightest.

Of course they are an error, what are you talking about.

Error: A mistake; an accidental wrong action or a false statement not made deliberately

Cyberpunk on a smartphone chip? I believe it when I see it.

I have this notch in my MacBook Pro display, and system tray icons just disappear behind it once I have too many of them. I need a third party app like Ice or Bartender to fix this bug, and honestly, it’s embarrassing for Apple to not have fixed this in so many years.

It still impacts a lot of people because we here are in the minority and we can’t save them all. So it’s absolutely valid to have this piss you off.

I’m sure there’s some legal text somewhere that states that deleting only refers to the association with your user account, but the actual genome data will still be kept “anonymized.” There’s just no way in hell that they’re actually deleting it all. Their lawyers are smarter than that.

Wow. Remarkable. Magnificent. I’m so glad there’s an entire article about this minuscule feature.

Private Internet Access

I agree, but it’s clear that OP doesn’t want a real solution, because those apparently are boring. Instead, they want to try something new. NVMe/TCP is something new. And it still allows for having VMs on one system and storage on another, so it’s not entirely off topic.

If you want to try something that’s quite new and mostly unexplored, look into NVMe over TCP. I really like the concept, but it appears to be too new to be production ready. Might be a good fit for your adventurous endeavors.

Personally I just love that they didn’t even do a remake. They didn’t even do a remaster. They just did a rerelease. The absolute bare minimum. And they even screwed that up.

Can’t go wrong with Proxmox. Though, I would recommend thinking about how you want to integrate Storage here. For most of the VMs you’re planning on running now that’s probably not a huge issue currently, but in the long run you’ll want to also replace Google Drive, Photos and Netflix And then you wish you’d thought about storage earlier.

Consider whether you want to deploy a separate NAS box (I can recommend TrueNAS) and do network storage in these cases (and how exactly that’s going to look like), or if you want to put it all on your Proxmox system and maybe run TrueNAS as a VM.
