I miss those welcome videos!

Well it's definitely not in piece/s I guess

I just can't fathom how employees of a company would do all this because someone with a newsletter criticized the company often. I understand employees committing fraud for their o…

I recently purchased an Xbox Series S for ~NZD$180 to re-play GTA4 (and Episodes) as I never got to finish it when it first came out, and to get through all the GTAs before GTA6 co…

That's super interesting - will have to take a look into this!

It probably could. Wait till the 3rd generation where it will eventually end up growing in size such that unfolded it'll be equivalent in size to an 11" iPad. I already remote into…

I think there's a software route you can go, but I went the hardware route. Essentially requires opening up the iMac, gutting out all the internals, and replacing it with a display…

Best thing I've done - monitor wise - is buy a 2019 iMac 5k and convert it to work as an external display. Such a beautiful display. Only downside is once you go 5k it's very hard …

I think the iPhone's one (based on the leaks anyway) will be slightly smaller, but I still think it's going to be a popular device. Especially with Apple's experience from iPad OS,…

Yeah, initially my skepticism was around the fact that the front screen wouldn't be useful for day-to-day 'normal' smartphone things (messaging, scrolling X etc), and the inner scr…

I was a bit skeptical on this form factor, but after watching a few reviews I think I'm convinced. The heart says yes, bank balance says definitely no. I think with Apple's softwar…

Apotris on my TrimUI Brick Hammer is my modern method of getting my brick game fix.

Yeah, I started watching those videos with uncontrollable rage to thinking about how can society change things to avoid/minimize this.

I can't reply with stats, but I sometimes get in a bit of a loop watching the 'pred vs catcher' videos on social media. After having watched what would probably be hundreds (across…

Slightly off-topic: When I used to eat banana-flavored things (milkshakes, chocolate bars, etc), I always thought that the flavor was artifically inflated and tasted nothing like a…

Except a car with a loud exhaust you'll hear for a max 10 seconds as it drives past you/ your house is not the same as having a house that is stationary, with a loudspeaker, that t…

> They also killed 30 000 of their own Thought it was 40,000?

Because you're assuming the people on the top have liquid assets needed to sustain themselves. They would need the economy to be operating and funds flowing into their accounts via…

William Dalrymple's books are great reads. Makes reading history enjoyable. Highly recommend all his books, particularly his most recent 'The Golden Road'

I've been pondering this, and have been moving between cynicism and (cautious) optimism. I think there will be more action on this than climate change, only because the AI impact w…

Well what else do you expect in response to your vagueposting?

I thought a life was a life, but given you stated it's 'separate issues', thanks for proving my point.

> advance Like those 'advanced' countries that don't have death penalties but are silent - or arming/funding - a genocide? I guess some deaths are ok.

I suppose it is only non-violent on the surface. What if the stolen money could have been used to strengthen the healthcare system or improve citizens’ lives in other ways?

I should have been more clear and my initial comment didn't portray the intent: sometimes Good business decisions requires a longer time horizon for the strategy to play out. But w…
