Pressed discs have a completely different manufacturing method
Pressed discs have a completely different manufacturing method
Every car I’ve driven with keyless ignition (which seems to be the standard now) refuses to lock if it detects the key inside the car, even if you try to do it manually by pressing the lock button, so hopefully this is a solved problem now.
I’ve honestly never heard of self-locking cars doors, that’s a crazy idea.
Not just “US fuckers”. These countries have also announced plans to bring AC units: Great Britain, Canada, Italy, Germany, Japan, Greece, Denmark and Australia
There was an updater for iTunes or something for MacOS X that would wipe out your home directory if your hard disk had a space in its name. The default name for the Mac hard disk from the factory is “Macintosh HD”.
until whatever VR app has a plug in for every thing you’d want to do on your phone
Isn’t that the big difference with Apple’s visionOS vs the other VR headsets? It’s basically iPadOS, where you can run multiple apps at the same time and move windows around, without anything needing to know what else is going on, and everything uses the standard window and widgets toolkits. Unlike the Meta Quest, which is basically SteamOS where you’re switching between Unity games that take over the whole device and they all have to re-invent the world with slightly different controls and everything.
“A couple of days” seems like the worst of both worlds - it needs to be charged often, but not on a fixed schedule, so you have to keep tabs on the battery and plan ahead.
Personally I just have a charger on my night stand and charge it every night alongside my phone. It’s an easy routine and I don’t want to sleep with a watch on anyway (smart or not) since when I do I eventually get a rash on my wrist.
For those who want to do sleep tracking, they need to speed up charging so that the “charging while I take a shower” works for those of us who take shorter showers
My experience is that the tiny, mountainous, Eastern European backwaters are the places with the cheapest plans, and places like Germany and Canada have the worst ones.
A bunch of carriers implemented it originally, but their implementations were all horribly broken, with messages between carriers usually not working, the carrier-installed messaging apps sucking, etc. Eventually they all dropped it and Google picked up the ashes and “fixed it” by making their server the only one instead of having per-carrier servers like SMS/MMS.
The US used to heavily punish that sort of behaviour, but in this case it took EU action to reign in a US company
FWIW in this case it was Chinese action - China is requiring all phones sold domestically to support RCS. The EU DMA would have forced Apple to open up access to iMessage, not implement RCS, but they found that in the EU, iMessage market share is too small for the DMA to kick in (probably due to the overwhelming popularity of WhatsApp).

The data is unavailable to Apple.
Microsoft’s thing takes a screenshot of everything on your screen and saves and indexes it. Opened up your password manager and revealed a password? Saved. Opened a porn site in a private tab in any browser aside from Edge? Saved. Opened up a private encrypted chat to try to get away from your abusive partner/parents? Saved and indexed. Logged into a portal at work showing HIPAA information? Saved and indexed.
Apple’s thing is basically a better search feature of all the data you already have saved, that apps have already opted-in to sharing. It runs on device, and Apple has promised they do not send the data back to train the models. They also have some generic ChatGPT-like tool to help rewrite your documents, but that’s 100% opt-in so nobody really cares about it, it’s easy to just not use.
How about what the viewers want
As long as the viewers refuse to pay for content, they get what the customers (the advertisers) want.
YouTube Premium actually pays out to “demonetized” channels. What people call “demonetized” is actually called “limited ads”.
Japan doesn’t have enough electricity. After Fukushima, they lost most of their nuclear. The country is densely populated, and the parts that aren’t populated are covered in forested mountains, which all makes building the required amount of renewables very difficult. So today and in the future, Japan runs on coal and natural gas. So they make cars that run on hydrogen (which is more efficient to create out of their imported natural gas than burning the gas for electricity) and then sell those abroad greenwashed as “but you can produce hydrogen from green electricity!”
They changed that to appeal to Windows users, people who were raised on Windows are absolutely obsessed with full screening everything for some reason
Once Intel gets to 2nm
So in like 10 years from now?
The biggest spikes look like the correspond to new year. So my guess is that the spikes are vacations and show the difference between home PC and office PC usage.
You can see the same spikes on e.g. Googles IPv6 chart - when people are away from work IPv6 penetration goes up, when people are at work it goes down.
I’m already seeing people come into software dev support forums asking “ChatGPT said you could do this but it’s not compiling” and people replying that no, that’s not possible and them arguing about it because ChatGPT said it.
Once Elon Musk unleashes his “uncensored” AI chat bot, we’re going to be flooded with made-up misinformation, it’s going to be a bloodbath.
Pressed discs (like movies) are physically… pressed. They make a metal mould which is then stamped into melted plastic to make the pits and lands and then coated with a metal film to make the reflected backing, filling in the pits. This makes manufacturing of millions of disks extremely cheap since it takes seconds per disc. Burning commercial disks individually in thousands of burners would be way too slow/expensive.
