I once read a review of a sous vide machine that just would not work unless it was connected to a smartphone via an app. And then that app would not work properly without a connection to some backend. That backend died at some point, bricking the sous vide machine. What a wonderful world we live in.
I doubt it but it does look like it went through some heavy handed filter or even some upscaling.
I don’t think it would have been illegal to point a bunch of reasonably powerful IR LEDs in that camera’s direction either.
Hell of a way to total a car though.
That’s a corpo problem, not an EV problem. They could very easily make a perfectly fine EV that isn’t a shitty motorized “smart device”, if they chose to. But they aren’t. The EV push just happened to coincide with the global ramping up of automotive enshittification that had already begun for all cars regardless of their energy source.
Absolutely not. Nvidia GPUs and some network cards can and will break sleep on Linux. It’s currently very much broken on my machine and I stopped trying to fix it. Up until a few days ago the PC failed to properly power down to a sleep state and would leave a whole bunch of things powered up, like the monitor and the fans and the lights. Now it’s even worse. On top of all that, the computer goes right back into sleep seconds after it wakes up. Extremely annoying.
I use arch btw.
That was said by one random, rather insignificant Microsoft employee who had no capacity to make such a claim. Not in a position to even have that kind of information on the company’s future plans.
And even if they did have the capacity, if you actually go look at what really was said, it’s reasonably clear that they wanted to say latest version but fucked up the sentence. I hate defending Microsoft but that thing has become a meme at this point.
European countries have done the same for a long time though. Your Schengen visa application can easily be declined if you do not show that you have accomodations and a return ticket already taken care of. It’s not a strict automatic rejection afaik, but it’s most definitely not unheard of. It’s also common for the border police to ask to see your return tickets, depending on your… appearance.
How am I supposed to explain that to my kids
Depression doesn’t make you do something so completely antisocial as displaying your shit stained ass wiping towel to your coworkers. There are deeper psychological issues there. That boy needs professional help.
Number 4 is when the force of your shit cannot be contained within the bowl and you have to spend some time cleaning around it when you’re done.
Number 5 is when the force of your shit cannot ne contained within the bathroom and you have to pay for renovations when you’re done.
A lot of people. They’re served very commonly with coffee. Very rarely red, though. Mostly they’re small white cubes with either pistachios or hazelnuts in them.
The tube looking ones are a more fancier type. I would not say they’re more common than the cubes, though. The “nobody buys those cubes” thing is an absolutely wild statement, honestly.
Not being able to play games? Not serious? What the hell are you talking about? Did you compare a 3090 to a bottom tier ATI Radeon card or something? My RX 6800 was a fucking champ that was able to run everything I threw at it without a single problem and with quite satisfactory performance at 1440p. It was most definitely a very competent GPU for gaming.
ML and nvenc are extra features that not everyone needs or even wants.
Meh. I would not take either. In fact I actually didn’t. I went to a showroom and got inside their EVs and PHEVs while looking for a car. My immediate reaction after sitting in the driver’s seat of their PHEV was “I don’t want to drive this”. Same thing with the pure EV. I’ll give you the wheel, but those A/C controls next to the “shifter” are touch surfaces instead of actual buttons, and they’re just as annoying and worthless as touchscreen controls. Which is sad because those cars have fantastic stats on paper and very competitive prices. Unfortunately most EVs on the market have fucking stupid interior designs. Very often you have to choose between affordable and well designed. Not very many that are both.
In the end I decided not to buy a new car at all. Still got my 2015 Leon.
BYD cars don’t have very many buttons either. See here. They’re tablets on wheels too. I quite dislike BYD interiors.
Nah, olives are different. Most of our fruit are descendants of wild fruit that are bland, tasteless, poorly textured at worst. Stuff that’d make you say “meh I don’t care for this”, not “I’d rather taste my own vomit”.
It’s olives for me. Raw, fresh olives are absolutely disgusting. Insanely bitter. Straight up inedible until it’s essentially pickled, which is what we actually eat. Crazy that someone ate that shit off the branch and went “I can fix this” instead of just writing the entire tree off as junk.
They’re pretty common and the functionality is often not even obscure. Plenty of ROMs out there are unable to make full use of the fancy cameras on some phones without jumping through hoops because of driver issues. That’s not an insignificant thing. I’ve seen NFC and e-sim being unavailable as well, which are also not very obscure features.
3 zone a/c is also pretty nice. No more “it’s too <exact opposite of what the driver is feeling>” whining from the back.
