Yeah I don’t understand their take at all.

“They haven’t gotten them all so THEY’RE NOT DOING IT IN THE FIRST PLACE so reactionary with your worldview JEEZ”

This is the kind of low-tier thinking that got us here in the first place.

As long as the Linux install videos stay up, I actually applaud this

A lot of us mount a TV on the wall and watch from a couch across the room.

Highly depends on screen size and viewing distance, but nothing reasonable for a normal home probably ever needs more than 8k for a high end setup, and 4K for most cases.

Contrast ratio/HDR and per-pixel backlighting type technology is where the real magic is happening.

That is HTML not CSS

This also relieves download pressure on their servers

Smart devices are fine - it usually just means remote control or status. Plenty of use in that.

The problem is that no one can be arsed to buy a local hub and figure out how to connect it, so every company just builds an app and makes it cloud connected. That way they can farm your stupidity.

It’s not hard to make a device that works locally (it’s way easier than making a cloud service) but it’s far less lucrative.

That being said if I bought a $2000 mattress cover and it didn’t work offline I’d have gotten my fucking money back.

Is it just me or has there been a lot of this on here lately?

The scary part of this one is that previously, we had administrations that, while still being right-of-center (yes ML, I know), had at least enough sense to prop things up well enough to recover.

I don’t have faith that the fascist goons will take any steps to properly protect anything (regardless of whether its the ideal system or not) and just let everything fall apart.

Considering all the damage just seems to be blatant wrecker shit trump is doing as “revenge” for who knows what, probably having his pedo time taken away by the imperial core (and under his watch too) I think he wants this place to burn and cooking us all is his sick revenge fetish at this point.

Fucking prick

Ads. Steering me to store all my data in Microsoft’s cloud where they do (or inevitably will) scan it for profiling, AI training, government surveillance, etc. (which also annoyingly locks file handles when documents are open). Shoving AI into every product, even when it’s completely useless. Sunsetting useful products. Changing license terms for paid products, forcing subscriptions. Requiring online accounts only and eliminating workarounds. Removing features and replacing them with incomplete UI offering less control. Massive security holes. Annoying patch/upgrade system that interrupts me while I’m working. Flaky, bug ridden tools (Teams, etc) And updates that break hardware.

Apparently it was DNS. It’s always DNS…

Great reference, mailbox head!

So it can log what is being said and he can secretly try to game the market!

“Look, my model makes the best stock picks because it’s so intelligent and does lots of thinking and reasoning just like a human, that’s why we need a huge data canter bigger than the one the NSA has in Utah that records all the world’s internet traffic”

Since when does Mac not let you install whatever program you want? Are you thinking of iOS?

And for fuck sake make sure it works on Firefox!

A lot of that is true, but I’m not sure it’s a major driver in the state of affairs in China vs USA.

Most of it is that we moved our manufacturing there, and they learned everything we knew and innovated on and about 15-20 years ago were basically like “ok, we’ve got it from here”

Meanwhile we keep acting like they’re stuck where they were in 1960. Even the press writes about them that way. Remember “China’s Ghost Cities”? “Who’s supposed to live there?” Well, now they’re mostly filled. The people who we gave the jobs to live there.
