That's why I said in most respects. The Windows 10 start menu is way more configurable. It doesn't waste space for "recommended" apps either. In Win11 it is possible to reduce the space eaten up for recommendations but not hide it. The way pinned apps flow left to right and down is annoying too for spatial positioning. An update added icon groups which is something. I think the rest of the desktop, things like the control panel, task bar is a lot slicker in general though.
Probably too late for Unity. A commercial game engine only makes money if there is a constant influx of new games to sustain it. I bet a lot of developers, large and small, have already decided to dump the platform either immediately or for their next project. So revenues are going to go into free fall.
Devs will move to Unreal (powerful) or Godot (free) and Unity will die. And it's all thanks to John here and the other members of the board who thought squeezing people for $$$ who have choices was a good idea.
Windows 11 is basically Windows 10 with a slightly nicer (in most respects) desktop. There aren't a lot of compelling reasons to switch if what you have works well enough.
They'll risk their reputation for much less than you might think. Tesla are getting rid of physical controls to save a few bucks even though it has a serious impact on usability and safety. E.g. The new model 3 will remove indicator stalks and put buttons on the wheel making it all but impossible to safely and legally traverse roundabouts. I reckon there will be huge backlash on this especially in the UK and Europe.
Use Mastadon or some other social media platform. Not always a choice and if you're stuck with Twitter you might as well ensure you're not enriching the platform.
I doubt it is thousands since most plants are automated, but even assuming it were, it's the consumer who suffers when their car is basically disposable after a crash.
egalize abortion the first and second time? When did the US legalize abortion? You don’t actually have to answer this, it is a rhetorical question, but you should know the answer
Sure thing comrade. Go back and finish your first year political studies semester. That, or emigrate to one of these socialist paradises.
Gigacasting saves car companies money, it doesn't save car owners money. For the manufacturer it reduces their bill of materials and time take to assemble a vehicle. They might save a couple of hundred bucks. Possibly.
For the owner, it increases the risk that a small collision runs a fracture along the body of their car which is then basically impossible to repair and the entire vehicle is a writeoff. Castings could potentially have sacrificial points where some kinds of damage could be ground off and replaced with stamped metal but even if that were so, it's still less repairable than if the entire frame of the car were assembled of stamped metal.
Hamas are absolutely headbanging murderous zealots committing a lot of atrocities right now. But if you herd people up, deprive them of basic liberties, brutalize & kill a bunch of them, and steal their land at gunpoint and then you can hardly act all shocked that a bunch of them are radicalized and go on a rampage. Doesn't matter if we're talking what Israel has done to Palestinians or what the United States did to Native Americans. Maybe the lesson to learn here, is don't do those things. But I expect that Israel will pound Gaza committing its own atrocities as payback and the same thing will happen again in another decade.
Now you have a launcher icon for Twitter that opens in Firefox and has all the ads stripped out. I believe there is even a "Twitter Control Panel" add on that will remove a lot of the remaining clickbait from the page too - what's trending etc.
If you overlook the surveillance, political oppression, the beatings / torture / disappearances, the labor camps, the subjugation of minorities & religions, the squalor everyone is subject to, the censorship, the run down infrastructure, the lack of luxury goods, the imposition of "social" systems to punish non-compliance, the lack of free enterprise. It's also amusing you hail women's rights when the USSR banned abortion and made divorce practically impossible. Or LGBT when was and still is marginalized and persecuted in most Communist countries. Maybe ask the Uyghurs think of their lives in their re-education centres. But maybe you're hailing Cuba taking enormous strides to recognize LGBT rights... in 2022. Well that certainly makes up for 70 years of life under Communism.
Oh they're all such a veritable workers paradise! It's weird why so many people attempted to escape, enduring arduous journeys, even risking drowning, being shot or entangled in barbed wire. It's weird how so many countries got rid of Communism and the people rejoiced about it. Strange that.
I don't know if that's feasible given that adults are adults after all. But maybe just restrict the sale of cigarettes and make it so burdensome to sell them in shops so most don't even bother. And do the same for vapes. Vapes are ridiculously easy to buy so stick them in the same locked cabinet that other nicotine products go in and ban all advertising and signage.
When you find yourself comparing to the USSR I think you've already lost your argument. Since it boils down to "eradicate capitalism and rent becomes cheaper". Maybe it does and everything else becomes a lot shittier too.
I don't see why dairy should be subsidized but some plant milks aren't exactly environmentally friendly either. The best can be said is they're better than dairy, assuming the same land could be used for both. But they can be devastating in their own right. E.g. to grow 1 almond (i.e. one kernel) takes over 3 gallons of water. Other crops used to make milk like oats have lower water consumption.
I've rented plenty in my life. Then I bought a house and paid it off. Sobbing that people who rent properties actually want to make money or that they're all "parasites" is laughable nonsense.
Yeah how dare I make an obvious point that people rent houses to make money. They aren't charities. It doesn't make them parasites or evil. They're not responsible for the price of houses. They're not responsible for social housing. They're not responsible if you cannot afford what they charge to cover their costs & make money.
