> Kompanio Ultra Chromebooks are faster Lol. There is zero chance the low end mobile phone SoC shipped in those is remotely as fast as a six year old M1. Even flagship SoCs from qu…

A plastic macbook lookalike with no ports, a mobile phone OS, a 1366x768 display and probably the cheapest SoC they can scrounge from the parts bin. This thing, like all other goog…

tbh, it still isn't economically feasible. spacex 'cheated' to achieving reuse by just making the the entire plumbing and engine assembly bolt-on to the lower stage on F9 and they …

Does this mean we can finally be done with the farce of pretending that Wayland is a serious contender for replacing X11?

It was publicly released in 2013 and you can enable it with -vr in args IIRC. Not sure if it would work with modern VR hardware since steamvr wasn't a thing back then.

This doesn't surprise me. Google still refuses to fix basic bugs in the distribution of android used in pixel devices. The alarm bug (where alarms will not work for days/weeks at a…

I have no clue how you're drawing that conclusion. The lightning connector is indisputably more durable than USB-C and failures of lightning ports outside of extreme abuse is prett…

They’re being forced to remove games that are essentially anime CSAM. Payment processors shouldn’t need to be stepping up, but these platforms don’t bother to curate or moderate co…

there are already hundreds, if not thousands of anime lolicon porn games on steam. the people making a stink about this know this but are pretending that they don't because it woul…

It is a shame that it takes payment processors to get Valve to do even the bare minimum curation of their store. IMO the thousands of outright bad games and ai slop asset flips and…

This is ridiculous and unnecessary. I can always pay cash or swipe a card at a gas pump, why not the same at an EV charger? This is something that doesn't need to be changed.

No, what you're seeing here is that the underlying model was trained with private repo data from github en masse - which would only have happened if MS had provided it in the first…

Yes. Opt-outs like that are almost never actually respected in practice. And as the OP shows, microsoft is intentionally giving away private repo access to outside actors for the p…

So they've fully capitulated and just copied Apple's UI/UX fully now. Why exactly would anyone buy an android when you get UX that is a poorly made clone of the real thing, much wo…

I feel like this page has barely changed since I last saw it, more than ten years ago. I suppose it would be much longer if it included more recent edit wars, especially since ther…

Grok could capture the entire 'market' and OpenAI would never feel it, because all grok is under the hood is a giant API bill to OpenAI.
