I have a windows VM for Adobe products, etc. Works fine for my usecase. If you need full GPU Acceleration (e.g. for Premiere), it gets a bit more complicated, but is doable still, as long as you have an iGPU or second GPU.

cloudflarestatus.com, seems to be hosted on AWS. Probably just got hammered because there was suddenly a lot of people caring about CFs status.

Yeah. What it probably won’t have will be the hoch res camera array for look-through the Vision Pro has, but as long as you’re more interested in it as a productivity tool rather than something that reproduces all the Vision Pro “sparkle”, I definitely see potential.

The vessel was built by Oceanco, a firm that’s done such a good job that Newell just decided to up and buy it outright in August

A yacht - and a yacht builder.

I’m pretty sure this is mostly supposed to be a gaming headset, with non-gaming applications being more of a bonus. The vision pro on the other hand seems more marketed as a anything-but-gaming headset.

Custom Roms like Graphene, Calyx are the answer. And there are quite a few finance apps that do work, look it up for the ones you actually need before switching.

Compared to the Pixel / Pixel Pro, the Performance difference is pretty much nil because they’re all on the same SoC.

Not really a drop-in replacement for video meetings. For that, Jitsi would be more sensible.

I don’t take nudes often, but when I do, I put some effort into it. Proper lighting, proper posing, interesting scene composition.

Also, I generally agree that if there aren’t any nudes of you, it’s often a good idea to not start making them (because society sucks, not because nudes are inherently a problem), but knowing that nude pictures of you are available online already is pretty freeing in that regard.

I don’t know what exactly my point is, except for that you might need to date people with higher nudes standards.

Hey, that was made at my former uni. And now I’m wondering whether other unis adopted it. It always seemed like a neat solution.

Probably some variation of owner/boss/CEO.

On my desktop, I have about 200GB free, which is about 10%, which feels like the bare minimum, and the only reason I haven’t upgraded yet is that there’s some large directories I can archive should it be necessary.

On my server, I recently was down to about 500GB free, also about 10%, which made me add more drives.

So it’s all relative.

I do get it, and I could have phrased it differently. My point mostly is, it is often painted as an insurmountable problem for adoption, and while that might be true for a lot of users, there’s also a large number of user for who it isn’t.

Also, for me personally, I’d rather switch banks than use a phone with a stock rom, but I know most people don’t view things that way.

I know several banks who’s apps don’t need Google Attestation. I would also not use a bank that forces an app as the main point of contact as my main one. A lot of banks around here offer a tan-device as an alternative. There’s also a lot of transport associations that offer nationally valid chip-cards.

I do see why it’s a problem, but I also don’t think that one should let such services dictate their choice of mobile device. I do know that I come from a privileged position, living in a country where I have options.

I honestly don’t get why everyone is so hung up on banking apps. I run Graphene, and my bank’s app actually does work, but I wouldn’t really have a problem if it didn’t. They have a website that is pretty usable, and I don’t need an app to use my payment cards.

Sure, Graphene OS tries it’s best to limit Apps, but if you don’t trust an App, you just shouldn’t run it, no matter the OS.

They themselves have often been criticised for potentially producing their product in occupied territory, but I don’t think there is any direct evidence they’re influencing the ebu.

The ebu themselves say there isn’t any connection between Israeli participation and the sponsorship. At the same time, a sponsor probably has some amount of influence, and the ebu might try to avoid doing something that might not jive with their main sponsor without direct pressure.

In the end, it’s all speculation, though.

That’d be nice, but they, maroccanoil, have been main sponsor for the last five years, and are confirmed to again be this year. Dunno what the chances are of that changing at this point.

Also - I’m pretty sure they had corporate sponsors 10 years ago. They aren’t shown in some countries broadcasts, but they’ve been there for some time.

If I remember correctly, it’s a European Broadcasting Union thing, and they’re in cause there used to be a British colony there.

An Israeli company has been the main sponsor the past few years.
