You could easily make the law require you have that ability.

No it’s not. Laws are. Why ask that the fire doors in a building are unlocked when it’s on fire? Maybe they just shouldn’t ever be locked.

That’s dumb. Why should you have to unlock?

And thats the solution. Not lawsuits. Regulation.

Not quite. Grocery stores make common products and clones. Sony’s 1st party stuff is (often) exceptional. It’s the reason an Xbox or PC isn’t a complete replacement.

What prevents Sony from charging the retailers $60 for the code to a $60 game? Congratulations, you can buy anywhere you want. You don’t have to buy from Sony. It just costs more. …

Exactly. This is stupid. Physical is dead, there’s no point in arguing otherwise. And you will not win. Sony never signed a contract with you saying they would keep making physical…

They’re insanely intelligent for something so small.

I get that. I suspect that’s how most things end.

I think it would be kind to make a post explaining the blog is ending, even if you choose not to explain the exact reasons.

It might be used a little bit in other places, wouldn’t surprise me one bit. And it’s good that the computers are capable of it. Even if someone can’t get a more powerful computer,…

I haven’t followed the PC chip business anywhere near as much as I used to around the turn of the millennium. I was under the impression Intel actually made a few chips that could …

I suspect that the comment is more about this not being Apple’s best standard consumer CPU for computers, which would be the M5 (though to your point that’s also in iPads). It’s go…

Plus it’s a phone chip. Yeah it’s used in the Neo but it’s no M5. It’s good Intel got to this point, but you can’t declare them tied with Apple. They qualified for the real race, w…

Apple has been working ruthlessly on battery efficiency for a long time because of the phones and their tendency to minimize battery sizes on Macs for thinness. The exact design of…

You’re kidding right?

It does! Sort of. The company Niteangel sells a pedometer for their hamster wheels. It doesn’t provide times or speeds, but it does give you the number of revolutions per night. I …

My hamster broke his record with 22k revolutions on his 10” wheel a few nights ago. That’s about 11.5 miles. That’s much higher than usual, but when they want they can go .

I don’t think it would’ve sold like hot cakes. But I think it could’ve gotten a decent toehold. Be more than the near joke it is now. I know two people who have them and like them …

Why the Safari bash? Every single one works. Apple keeps their emoji list pretty up to date.

I think it’s much better than HoloLens. I also think it could’ve been a lot more successful if they didn’t force it to be a fancy iPad and left it more open like a Mac. The price i…

There is nothing stopping people from using passkeys with MFA. I’ve seen them do it. It’s against the suggestion, but they can do it.
