iCloud Private Relay is disabled for my WiFi. Hide my IP address is enabled in Safari. I will trying clearing the cookies and see what happens. Thank you for the response.

I don't know is the term "payware" is new, but it is the best description of Blizzard's shitty sales practices. I remember when I played shareware, and you got to play the first few levels of a game, and if you liked it, you paid a single price to unlock the entirety of the rest of the game.

I was using Mint for a while but the system got hosed. I plan on modding Starfield, and there was another game I can't recall that wouldn't work on Linux. After I best Starfield I fully expect to wipe my system again and go with a more stable distro of Linux (e.g. Gentoo or something).

To add to that, Android is likely the overwhelming market share of Linux-based operating systems in use today. For that matter, an absolute ton of Intel CPUs have Minux installed on them too, but I wouldn't call this "on the desktop", just interesting.

Honestly, between the telemetry data collection, the strange hardware requirements, advertisements, bloatware, and unknown future licensing model, Linux is looking like an attractive option. At this point, I only use Windows for Office and gaming, and Linux + Proton has gotten really good lately. I don't see a reason to use Windows on my personal machine any more.

Available, yes. Playable, greatly depends on how much GPU you bought with your Mac.

There was a chart here posted a few days ago that listed countries by happiness. I think Norway and some other countries that are not considered capitalist were near the top. Even with those countries, something like 20-25% were still not happy. That is a large percent. Imagine if the world put just 10% of the effort going into profiting of of AI into figuring out what makes humans happy and implementing it.

Honestly, I expect some form of it in the next five years. Tech can move fast when it wants to and there’s 💵 involved.

Oh no! Anyway...

Same here. I was pissed when it ended with a TBC. I didn't realize it was a two-parter.

Good, thank you.

Got it. I thought you meant 12-14 openings each, and I was arguing semantics to myself about what could possibly be considered "openings" to make the number that big.

Maybe it's because I haven't had coffee yet, but could you do the math for me? 12-14 doesn't seem right.

Would it still really be Point Nemo if people live there?

Enjoy. Great pic.

There's a lot of iconic problems Apple has had with product launches in the past (attenna-gate and butterfly keyboards are some of the most obvious recent ones), but I cannot for the life of me understand how something like this slips through in 2023. They must have a thermodynamics team that helped engineer the chassis, and the SoC team must know the thermal output of their chip. Did they just not test the device?

I was going to post something worthwhile, but I'm just so sick of seeing Elon and his bullshit all over the Internet. There isn't anything tangible he produces that affects me in any way.

Here I am wondering if he just asks GPTChat what to do for every business decision and follows it blindly.

If they want to do yearly releases, with new features for every device every year, they need to reduce the number of features. There's no point to 20+ features in an update if half of the features from last year stopped working correctly.

It only happens on "stations". My playlists work fine beginning to end. But if I play the discover or "my" station, it stops playing. mid song after several minutes. There is no pattern to it, no specific time. It happens on any network I'm on, wireless or wired.
