See, I'm keeping my siidebar open most of the time, so I WANT it to cover the content that would otherwise be visible - said no one ever. But yay, it's centered relative to the win…

I mean, this could have applications, if you need to be facing a certain direction to read the content. While the Silicon Valley is merely a figurative Mecca for all things tech, A…

I hope the author gets the point then.

Well it doesn't sound like you're having much luck with that setup, or would award it any gold stars, so there's that.

Bastards. I didn't notice. Welp. I guess most people who are/were using it also had accounts.

Seriously though. Musk promises self-driving cars, hyperloops, tunnels, and what they actually deliver is... a †balance bike*?! Satire is dead, because I can't imagine a worse self…

....Why?!

>. AI is going to be internet hug box echo chambers at an unbelievable scale. More like hotbox of one's own farts, but yeah

Asus, not Acer :) They pioneered the netbook with the EeePC line. Sadly, they didn't keep it alive.

I had the 1000HE too, and ran everything from LaTeX to DAWs on it. The only serious contender in that category now IMO is Chuwi Minibook X.

This is the stuff that I come here for.

Oh, a great new idea then! What if the same port could be on both headphones and phone? For convenience, we could make it, like, round so it could go in which every way. Then you c…

>so that, again, you could use the headphones while you charge them. Yes! And you could charge them off your phone! If I could dream: wouldn't it be nice if you had headphones with…

My XReal Beam Pro¹ has two USB-C ports: one for charging, one for Thunderbolt video output (both support data transfer IIRC). My other phones (Samsung Galaxy A23 etc) have a USB-C …

No, no, dissecting humor to death is the funnest part of the experience :D (I, too, am autistic)

That's what makes it good satire. But if you honestly think that someone applying for a postdoc can't explain what their research is about, it's on you.

As someone on the spectrum, I can assure you that being on the spectrum is not an obstacle for understanding this kind of humor. In fact, is the neurotypicals who struggle getting …

This article is AI slop that explains exactly nothing about how ballpoint pen tips are made, or what makes it a difficult problem. Do you have a better source?

Not if you want to eradicate any group that you don't like by planting undercover troublemakers / agent provacateurs in them! One little trick human rights advocates don't want you…

Great logical thinking! Now pray tell why Bin Laden is responsible for 9/11, but 1 billion Muslims aren't. They're in the same "group", right? They have "safehouses" (mosques), "ra…

This is awesome! Time to pull out my Acer Aspire from 2006, and make something with it :) Also: what a blast from the past to see Kyodai mahjongg on Andrei's desktop in last year's…
