You don't have to meet someone to know they're awful. I've never met Adolf Hitler - but I'm pretty confident he's an awful person. Elon Musk uses his immense wealth to cheat. He's …

Sure, but it's becoming increasingly obvious to everyone that the American car industry is in major trouble. In a decade, I'm confident in saying a lot of American car companies wi…

I would not be comfortable using any self-driving system on US roads that only utilizes computer vision. The reality is we don't actually know how reliable these systems are, and T…

IMO it's not much added work. In KDE you can navigate to settings and edit flatpak permissions, and flatpaks are available to download via discover. I haven't noticed any weirdness…

Yes, I just bought one a few months ago actually. A new lunar lake laptop. It gets 12 hours of battery life and has plenty performance for programming, plus 32 gigs of ram. It’s un…

Hugely agree with markdown. 99% of the time people want bullet points, headers, maybe a table or two. Using a word processor is very overkill and actually makes the simple stuff mo…

The division of per-app vs app list in general is bad. I think they should just throw in the towel and duplicate settings. Meaning, we can turn off Siri learning from an app or fro…

This doesn’t work on Windows because there’s half a dozen “settings” applications, which is the original complaint.

My advice for web browsers is to use Flatpak. You can limit the file system permissions of the app, like giving only access to downloads, so that if/when there’s a sandbox leak you…

It’s perfectly fine. KDE and Gnome are both now more cohesive, more intuitive, and less buggy than either Windows or MacOS. The problem with Linux is that, while it’s very good, it…

1. Customers don't know what cancelling is like before they buy a service. This isn't advertised, obviously. 2. Competing on being easy to cancel is a bad thing, actually. However …
