It's going to cost the population a fortune to VPN to a free country.

Common sense says that wearing jeans has exactly nothing to do with playing chess. No speculation necessary

I waited a full 9 months for my uconsole. They pitch it as a fantasy product, and I think that's fair. These are products with no target application. A standard MBA will suffice fo…

This particular model has a very good color profile before that was common but all the units I got were literally falling apart or glitching. I really wanted to use one for vertica…

Benq makes garbage. And I buy it! Went through 4 monitors in 22 all with QC issues. One took out my macbook pro for not following the usb c spec over the built in unpowered hub. Wa…

Why not exactly?

yep navy cap was "illustrated" but not by the "artist". afaics, although it would be so much more tragic if the artist actually created the image. just can't win

art is clearly generated but model gets no credit. I think that's pretty outrageous

I can't imagine anyone going to a whiteboard back in the day to make a pair of sunglasses and walk away with any lesser of a design than Raybans. Give human ingenuity at least some…

What's up with Raybans? They make the cheapest looking vanilla generic glasses I've ever seen, put a tacky logo on the lens and sell for a fortune. Why does anyone buy them?

This attack vector applies to all modern electronics and privacy conscious consumers will take note. Not only are electronics almost certainly willingly backdoored for the governme…

I wonder how behavior is defined exactly. Will future societies track eye focus and build a profile over time attached to a facial recognition database? Inappropriate gazing

It's totally zero sum. AI art is far better. Where artists had starving wages they'll soon get nothing. Same for actors and musicians and well everyone else. But the starving artis…

Emotiv did 24 channels for <500 if I recall and that was a decade ago. The raw data become accessible from a hack. Wonder what happened to them? Terrible customer service

"Under-11s we feel should not be given access to smartphones. They don't need the usage of a smartphone and, actually, a feature phone - or a dumb phone, as some people call them -…

Ok let's arrest some telco CEOs. Plenty of criminals still call

why don't they just scan it and release the images as a public archive? are we arguing over old paper now? what will we do with it in a museum? lock it in a glass case so no oily f…

cores!=processors. a processor requires investment through fabrication. adding +3 or +640 (tenstorrent) less so. but Ok they are making progress fragmenting the ecosystem for no go…

There are 100 billion embedded ARM processors in operation now with estimated 230 billion total. RISC-V cant be more than a million so displaced is a bit rich. Someone bought a few…

are we really going to recompile all our operating systems, software and embedded firmware and move to RISC-V to save SoC designers royalties to ARM? We have ARM SBCs, accelerators…

probably some kids in a basement. most security admins I've met are total frauds. sophisticated for $1m? no they're just trying to keep their jobs after being revealed as totally i…

The problem for me isn't installing packages and their dependencies but removing the dependencies when clearing a package. Too many package managers leave garbage on the system jus…
