  • Apple Silicon is on another level. If not having a fan in your phone doesn’t make you uncomfortable, then neither should any Apple device.

    The M2 Air 15” would be my choice. Beefy enough that it can game at (AAA titles), plenty of screen real estate to code, an all day battery life all at an entry level price point. Unless you need added connectivity like HMDI or a spec bump on the SoC (Pro, Max), a Pro doesn’t give you much more.

    The Air and mini are absolute beasts. Heat is just not a thing.

  • You can’t use Facebook privately. There’s no such thing.

  • That’s a mighty fine bread slug, English 💁‍♂️

  • Samsung has prep courses that funnel kids from high school into university where they come out with a job. It’s designed to basically fuel Samsung’s employee head count year after year.

    Some ten years ago, they swept graduates and through them into rooms with dangerous chemicals. With nothing more than a mask.

    But it pretty much the same here in NA. All of my computer classes were Microsoft heavy. I mean intro Computers spent a third of the course on Microsoft Office ffs.

    Companies have educational institutions under their thumb and have for decades.

  • I really wish government would crack down on this. Every regulatory entity should be on this because it’s nearly impossible to actually get your data deleted. Let alone even send a request without hurdle or hassle.

    And everyone is like ya no this is all fine privacy buy iPhone… *flips water bottle

  • The entire “pOePle wIlL CAncEl if itS Ez tho” mentality is the same as “if you don’t keep people in the office at their desk and monitor them, they won’t get work done.”

    All it did was force others to adopt the same practice and now no one can’t get out of anything smoothly. Maybe 1 out of 10 as a delete button. And even then, that’s just account deletion on the front end. Nothing about all the data they have stored.

  • Rutracker is a great addition to what others have suggested.

  • Not if you cut the card in half

  • Of course you can, you’re only striping one at a time. You could put as many as the physical card can hold.

    Best way is to apply glue the back using a regular glue stick. Put it in a book for a day till it dries. Then you’ll need to laminate the card with a non glossy coating to protect it.

  • That’s just a fundamental problem with security. You can vault up your home but give your idiot brother in law a key and find the back door wide open, him drunk on the kitchen floor.

    Prompts don’t work and aren’t really the right way to go because they are annoying and pretty cryptic as apps often assign a myriad of features to a single permission. Everyone’s just going to hit OK.

    It’s a difficult issue to solve because there are so many edge cases. And fundamentally you can’t really control what others do with your number.

    Honestly. I wish we started talking about doing away with phone numbers altogether. I feel tech is there. And it’s honestly such a massive fingerprint. I’ve had mine for 20 years ffs.

  • It’s not React, it’s built on Ionic: https://ionicframework.com

    Moreover, it’s a web app, perfectly capable of running in Safari, even on older devices. Use a browser on older devices. Problem solved.

  • Its nestle isn’t it. Fuckin nestle.

  • Or, radical opinion, don't let people invest in housing. Also, I noticed BC raised their maximum rental increase from 2% to 3.5%. Almost double. So there's that too 🫠

  • tl;dr: Answer: not much, it was the first computer what were you expecting

  • It’ll go thru because money but 🖕Adobe.

  • Our QA manager is absolutely KILLING it!

  • I watch interesting vids people link back on occasion but have left it as a service I would browse and engage with and let me tell you, life got a lot better.

  • Patents and a quagmire of legal hurdles. They have long complained about Qualcomms pricing structure. A company like that has a lock on the industry even Apple can’t fully circumvent without significant costs.

    It’s sort of the last piece in the puzzle. Once they get their modems, they become a fully unified system.

    You talk about boosting network stability? That’s just the start when you control all the airwaves.
