The issue isn’t the Labour Party it’s the entire country. Brexit has been a disaster, energy costs are through the roof, housing is becoming more costly, and there’s been no real e…

It’s a bizarre take. It’s not functionally useless, it supports a mouse, keyboard, printer or even an iPhone (non pro) perfectly fine at full speed. It also probably has enough spe…

There’s plenty of markets outside the pentagon to sell to. Far more likely is they spin up a defence focused subsidiary with slightly different policies if they really want to sell…

Tiny airport, on island with tiny population, thats not a major tourist destination, thats subject to competing territorial claims, that had a major war fought over it in living me…

And I prefer to have a healthy bank account balance. Storing 18TB (let alone with raid) on SSDs is something only those earning Silicon Valley tech wages can afford.

Doesn’t solve VLCs suckiness on iOS. No PiP support when it’s been in iOS for years now…

This comment sums up the current state of Apple’s LLMs perfectly.

I wonder if this is because the code was just never looked at again after it was written or if it actually survived rewrites? Back in the day the iPhone was notorious for messing u…

This. They make excellent access points and their lite beam/air fibre products are great. But UniFi has serious limitations when it comes to anything beyond the basics. An off the …

Yep the difference between 10^78 and 10^1100 is approximately 10^1100…

Ryanair doesn’t have sneaky feees. It’s entirely possible to book a flight with them for the price advertised and first quoted when you search. They do prompt you to pay for heaps …

Denmarks largest export is Ozempic. Ignoring IP rules will hurt EU producers too. How do you plan to ignore IP to hurt American tech companies. I guess if you allow piracy of all o…

I wouldn't count out Trump sending out "tariff profit" checks (with his face of course) to all Americans. If he gives everyone a $2000-5000 check (undoubably paid for by borrowings…

Good to see that Trump will be providing subsidies on goods imported from Australia to balance out the -107% trade relationship they have with them. Oh wait its a 10% tariff on Aus…

Yep. You might need to disable Adblock to have it appear. I was still hoping for something more than a simple email waitlist signup however. But I didn’t find anything obvious hidd…

https://thundermail.com Site is here with waitlist signup. It's also titled "For Those Who Know" and says: >> status beta_signup.is_open=true so perhaps theres a CLI or hidden way …

Are these just alternative facts and MAGA talking points or do you have any proof from a reputable source for what you stated?

That’s a scary vulnerability. There’s no mention of the bug bounty paid out for it but I hope it was substantial.

Going to deter war in Asia by simply telling China, go for it, take Taiwan and the whole 9 dash line? That’s not deterring war, it’s appeasement. Ask the great European powers (and…

Perhaps pricing in other markets will be substantially lower and undercut the Prime cost?

You can easily just add a case with magnets in it. Even iPhone 16 Pro cases often embed magnets in them to compliment the built in ones. I'm guessing you might miss the cool animat…

There's absolutely no reason for them to introduce a new mechanical camera system. They previously marketed their cropping of the center 12MP of their 48MP sensor as 2x optical zoo…

100% this. Yes, Hector went nuclear, but he begged Linus to step in and provide leadership (either merge or reject) and instead Linus ignored the whole technical issue with regards…
