Does there have to be a alternative? Companies preying on the elderly and uninformed is not something we necessarily need as a society. (99% of my telemarketing calls are scams whe…

The first iphone was a very limited device. It didn't have 3G, you were still effectively tethered to WiFi.

My employer blocks it on our work computers. Looking around it seems like this is commonly done because one of the main uses of the .zip tld is to spread malware by faking links to…

Why do you use a TLD that is commonly blocked?

>I know what I said. Engines are an art. Some engines maybe. Your average 1.5 TFSI is the equivalent of drawing corporate memphis clipart for a paycheck, no one is pouring their pa…

>If anything was to happen war-wise, we'll be running everything on recycled trash. ESMC should be online in a few years with 16nm class ICs. That will be tech that's over a decade…

>Think of how short a distance "to orbit" is. 7.8 km/s delta-v, that's quite a lot. >You're also mysteriously adding in build cost for starship, and not the train. Starship is reus…

>In terms of launch cost, Starship makes launch cost negligible. Some estimates are that it will cost less to launch a tonne to orbit, than to ship across the US by train. So in th…

The battery weight alone exceeds the load capacity of a 90s miata by 2x. And i wonder how well it would handle with the 1000 lbs of battery under the hood or in the trunk, my guess…

The screen is also much worse. 60% SRGB coverage 1920x1200 300 nits vs 97% 2408x1506 500 nits. I'd pick the macbook neo for $99 extra.

This used to be the case but looking at Macbooks now they are not much more expensive than a Windows laptop you would actually want to buy. And since they will still have some resi…

4 cups of coffee is considered a lot?

If you're taking your coffee hot wouldn't that denaturate the creatine?

Often the software itself is fine but it makes it possible for the IT department to configure performance killing behaviours. SHA hash every file you open, execute specific actions…

But does anyone actually make minimum wage in the US? Statistics i can find suggest it is around 1% with Japan closer to 20%.

You can't out excercise a bad diet. You can hit the weights for 2 hours straight every day and eat those calories back with a single bad dietary choice (like a handful of peanuts o…

Additionally if you don't save on Onedrive autosave is disabled. Autosave worked decades ago before we even had cloud storage, but apparently in 2026 we just can't have feature par…
