Most image sensors are not square, they are 4:3 or 16:9. Square sensors are typically used for more specialty applications.

I agree it could be useful on a phone to have 1:1 sensors, but I would still support the direct recording to standard video resolutions and aspect ratios as otherwise encoder limitations will affect what video you can shoot.

Yes they should be allowed to run for Prime Minister, no they shouldn't be allowed to be a party leader if they refuse to go through the process when given the opportunity.

Yeah that is an annoying thing that manufacturers have done. I bought a Gen 3 motherboard since everyone said that GPUs didn't even utilize Gen 4 yet, but now the exact people that are wanting a budget card and motherboard combo have that incompatibility due to manufacturer cheapness.

I'm sure Asus were cursing that Computex happened this month and GN were already planning on coming to Taiwan.

Is PCIe bandwidth a practical limitation at the moment for consumers? While it means you can use fewer lanes off the CPU there is no practical reason for consumers to be upgrading often enough to utilize faster generations. My impression was that the later generations are for server applications where more efficient use of PCIe lanes is a real benefit.

Right now? I'm a 6'2" pasty white guy in Asia (or Casper per my favourite overheard discussion).

Yup, they took feedback from customers and have provided modified components for customers that want to purchase them. Speakers, hinges, screens, stiffer chassis. All able to be replaced with the included screwdriver and guides online.

Oblivion had quality of life improvements that made it a better game IMO. Yes Morrowind was bigger and deeper, but it was also a frustrating game that didn't age very well.

I have a first Gen core i5 Framework 13. I've upgraded a couple components that weren't so great on those units (hinge and speakers) and the upgrades were easy. Otherwise I've been pretty happy with it and haven't felt a need to upgrade the mainboard yet

It really does feel like Starfield completely killed any excitement for Bethesda games, everything since Oblivion has been a step in the wrong direction IMO.

Not if Google Drive has anything to say about it. It absolutely grinds my gears how much effort they go to not to tell you where a document is located.

Nah, Floorp is Firefox with the features Firefox is missing.

They actually have the dual USB-A and USB-C key product that is inexplicably missing from the main security key vendors! While I'm not going to replace my perfectly good keys, I was so pissed off when I bought mine and the obvious product was missing from Yubico's offerings.

The issue is that because they broke the UI customization that allowed for it all the extensions are just a kludge to add a panel to the side without actually getting rid of the top tabs.

Do you want to just block all sound or do you want the extra features that come with active noise cancellation headphones like speech passthrough? What you are proposing doesn't exist because it makes no sense, active noise cancellation is done by recording the audio outside the headphone, inverting the amplitude and attempting to align the phase to cancel it out in real time.

In reality active noise cancellation only works for more or less constant sounds below 1000Hz, anything higher than that and the headphones block exactly as much noise as any other pair of sealed headphones.

You will get better noise reduction with IEMs than headphones, deep insertion headphones like Etymotic beat the pants off Bose for noise isolation at every frequency, are cheaper, and as a plus sound better than any noise cancelling set you can buy.

The way tree style tabs worked after they broke it was never very good. Floorp is what to use if you wanted side tabs on Firefox.

That said I still went back to Vivaldi after trying to use Floorp because of stupid little ux issues like pinned tabs not being protected from closing, and broken session saving.

They designed a product that doesn't solve a problem that anyone has. On top of that they designed something that doesn't even work well.

Sorry I should have said 2003, it came out in November of that year and this is supposed to be a yearlong celebration of Trackmania. The earliest game most people have experience with was TMNF/TMUF which came out in 2008 and United does include all the old cars so maybe that is your reference date?

The original Trackmania game came out in 2003 and contained 3 environments with different cars: Snow, Rally, and Desert.

The latest Trackmania game came out in 2020 and as a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the original game they have been adding the old cars from the original game into the latest game.

I literally have Gmail connected into Outlook at work because of how much better it is than the shitty way that Gmail deals with long threads of emails, emails with attachments, and just finding old emails in general. GSuite in general is just hot trash compared to proper Office.
