It's no worse than anywhere else to be honest and mostly limited to older people.

Notifications etc I can understand if you don’t know how to use tech properly.

What I don’t understand is how every older person seems to have loud speakerphone conversations in public. They had landlines most of their lives so why do this?

That desktop app really is super hot garbage.

There’s not much room in the Mac Mini for additional LPCAMM modules, or the MacBook Air.

The SSDs Apple use lack a controller (that’s built into the M series SoC). That drives down Apple’s cost of materials but surely it wouldn’t be that hard to support a standard NVMe M.2 interface?

The M4 Pro memory is quad channel, so I assume 256 bit.

The two LPCAMMS required for this would require a lot more space.

I give them a pass on memory packaging (but not pricing). SSDs are indefensible though.

I’ll hold out for the Pro Max Ultra

Linus is really, really shitty at responding to criticism. I don’t think it’s malice, it just didn’t occur to them.

He should just be upfront and say “you know what? We should have done better here”. That’s it.

It must be weird being so old. I'd presume once you hit 80 you'd sort of stop planning for the long term. To still be around almost 30 years later..

The entire Polity series is great, but my favourite parts are always when we follow a Prador perspective.

For music? You could use Bluetooth, or attach an SSD full of music. Or simply hotspot to your phone and use the built in music apps.

Personally I think $10 per month for unlimited data (audio and video streaming) is a steal.

It’s also not required unless you want realtime traffic or data for audio streaming.

You’re can still do most things without the small monthly fee

Install windows, run debloat powershell script. Done.

Microsoft give no shortage of things to complain about without needing to exaggerate.

It's only $48 for that pizza, they've got to cut costs somewhere..

It’s common in the server world. KB article on it is here.

Cowards

It sure wasn’t rapid smaller releases

You can mount drives against folders in windows. So while D: is one drive, D:\Logs or D:\Cake can each be a different disk.

With return to office mandates, this suuucks for some people

If you’re charging your plumbers out at $110 per hour (minimum hours, plus travel, plus parts) and only paying them $30..

That's some margin.

Our immune systems can tell the difference between human blood types. Let alone fungus vs human.
