  • Wtf is that photoshopped header image. It isn’t actually that large is it?

  • From the article:

    Samsung has informed MacRumors that the original report from The Elec is "completely incorrect" and that the "details are false." While The Elec has pulled its report entirely, we are leaving our original article intact below for reference to ensure clarity around the situation.

    It didn’t pass the sniff test when it was originally published either. The UMA is the largest contributor to the M series’ AI performance. The fact they published it at all is damning.

  • Now you see why he’s trying to normalize the idea of annexation. Greenland has potential to be resource rich and Canada is resource rich.

    I predict the next world war will happen on the cusp of smaller nations creating nuclear arsenals to defend their sovereignty.

  • Apple has been criticized for its recent naming scheme because it was the kind of complexity that Steve worked against. They clearly copied the names in a “death by committee” fashion with a total ignorance as to why they shouldn’t be copied. The recent naming scheme is clearly a mistake, and no one with a pulse on the market would say otherwise.

  • You can, thanks to SteamOS. That’s why I am looking forward to this device. It’s got a much higher performance ceiling than the deck, so I can throttle it down and have the option of performance or battery life. The deck wasn’t a powerhouse to begin with, so unless I’m playing a 2D clicker I never throttle the TDP.

  • Nice, now I finally have an upgrade path. I’ve loved my Steam Deck, but have wanted something I can have a “docked mode” with high performance and a “mobile” mode with the TDP locked to save battery.

  • unless I want to sell my stocks within the next year or so

    Favoring short-term gains over long-term value is exactly why this happens. Labor is often one of the largest cost centers in business, so shaving 10% off could potentially save millions in the short-term. Who cares if those gains eventually get offset or even eclipsed by losses in efficiency or innovation? I can just dump the stock/short it and leave someone else holding the bag.

  • Not even, they laid off most of their Rust people already.

  • I’m as much of an enjoyer of macOS as anyone, but I’m not deluding myself into thinking they have any potential for gaming beyond the Sims. The hardware is more capable than ever, but the support for games is nonexistent. Apple could work with Valve to make Proton support macOS, but they don’t care to.

  • I’m loving the lore of the “tildeverse”, check out https://cosmic.voyage/ starting with the log entries. Feels like Futurama meets Unix Surrealism.

  • Fam, jail that windows into a gaming partition and either get a Mac if you aren’t a computer nerd or use Ubuntu if you are. My computing quality of life improved greatly when I didn’t have to use Windows anymore.

  • Uggggh fucking whhhhhy.

    I don’t even use Windows and I have to put up with this shit. My parents are going to call and ask how and why they have to use this new thing.

    What was gained from this exercise in self-lobotomization? Pick a design language and stick to it.

    Stirring the pot like this is driving away even enterprise users. My last org only approved Macs and Chromebooks because we didn’t want to deal with the headaches that windows brought. Imagine saying that statement 10 years ago!

  • Hopefully the DoJ case against Google includes getting bent over a barrel for abusing their position as a market maker to force their revenue model.

  • Hmm…

    Dune? Nope

    Westwood: Double Nope

    Cowboy Bebop: Not even close

    Dark Tower: negative inspiration actually

    I’m sensing a pattern here. Sand + sci-fi equals a lithium prescription.

  • Would be a real shame if your wife were to suffer an allergic reaction and die after you agreed to this free trial, leaving you with no legal recourse despite our restaurant’s demonstrably inadequate precaution!

  • I am livid over her absolutely disgraceful management over Moz. When electron was building a de facto monopoly of Chromium on the desktop she made no moves to produces equivalent tooling. While Node grew into a behemoth she totally ignored it. The only thing that has come out of Moz in the last decade that mattered was Rust, and she’s already fired the Rust team. She is poison and serves only to suck up a salary that could fund development.

    Mozilla needs its wake up call and to start being the underdog that makes something worth doing. With Manifest V3 and the anti-trust case on the horizon they have a fork in the road that will define what becomes of them. Hopefully she can make one good decision and it’ll be the right one.

  • Have you even used Eleven Labs? Their voices sound way more natural than Google Translate. I was able to release my last book with an audio version because the quality was quite good. The pacing and tone shifts aren’t always perfect, but it’s perfectly serviceable.
