    I would love to have some examples, have you got any? Or is it just a feeling you have, that justifies your personal preferences?

    "no good reason", except the performance, battery life & build quality? Different people have different needs, preferences & ideological beliefs to you. If you measure the actions …

    I think you will find the downvotes aren't envy, but incredulity that you think $600k is anything but wealthy. https://dqydj.com/average-median-top-household-income-percen... What …

    And how will they know when the "useful info" is simply false? Ignore the depressed, aggressive (sorry, "assertive") antics, the fact it can confidently assert false information is…

    Cooking can be enjoyable and relaxing for some of us. Something to take pride from. How rewarding it is to see someone genuinely enjoy something you made.

    I don’t think we should make claims based only on what seems apparent to us. That isn’t a good path to finding the truth. It only exposes hidden biases and assumptions.

    Checking in from Sydney here, summer is still a month away, my family is snuggled on the lounge under blankets right now. The result comes down to a competent government response t…

    Noticed something odd today I think is connected to this. The other day we started using Access Advisor, and we found some of our KMS key policies with a Principal of '*'. It wasn'…

    Our government, like a lot of our citizens, are racist. (The government is also beholden to the mining industry...) Our PM today claimed we didn't have slavery here (in response to…

    I don't know the answer to that, but keep in mind that Apple is control of the entire CPU design. They could for example put an x86 decoder in front of the ARM cores. After all, mo…

    I hope one day you grow as a person, and realise different people have different requirements, preferences and trade-offs. I value macOS, I work away from a desk more often than on…

    I disagree. A single region can go down (and has in the past), no matter how reliable S3 as a whole is. If your business wants to avoid downtime, this is a simple solution to furth…

    A great movie, and come to think of it, I haven’t watched it in a few years. Thanks for the reminder!
