My theory is Apple bought Intel's timeline as much as anyone and Intel just didn't deliver.

Do you have some docs or writeups on your setup? I'm planning to move to macOS in a few weeks.

There’s a very nice one that runs fine on my iPad, E…

You do pay more for insurance if you smoke.

AI tools analyze photos pretty well now. It’s very common they bubble up old photos I had forgotten about.

Just to rule it out, I’d still try cycling the DIMMs. I’ve had multiple bad DIMMs pass memtest at this point.

When it comes to transistor scaling, as implied by Moore's law, isn't the company driving the advancement TSMC and friends? The ones you listed are all fabless.

I feel like NixOS should've gone just a bit further and look closer to GoboLinux. https://wiki.gobolinux.org/Overview/GoboLinux-Filesystem-Hie... …

From an outsider looking in, I'm just confused why Apple hasn't purchased Rogue Amoeba (or Sherlock'd them) considering they make keystone applications for the media application landsca…

I’m not a macOS guy but I was pretty surprised how woeful the default audio experience is on macOS. Coming from Linux background it was strange you need third-party tools that require you to boot int…

I found the criticism of LTT to be unfounded beyond the mishap with the prototype cooler. I'm more skeptical of them now but until I have good reason to believe they haven't followed through…

I'd say gaming is similar to sports in that it's an easy way to find common ground with other men when speaking casually, at least in my Zoomer cohort.

I don't agree at all. The Video Game Awards from last week was critiqued for being mostly previews of upcoming games. E3 was poorly managed.

Linus Tech Tips video from a year ago on CAMM - usual disclaimer about clickbait thumbnails but the content is very good.

I mean I kind of like "boring"? I upgraded from a 11 Pro Max to a 14 Pro Max last year and it was my phone, but better.

Where are you coming up with these theories? A capitalist economy needs the government for some very key laws like upholding private property rights but how does that extend to "mandating interop…

Do disabled people usually use text-only browsers or turn off JS? That seems orthogonal to being disabled.

I'm not sure if you've built a PC recently but 2016 is about when Ryzen was truly the better choice and gave Intel a swift kick in the butt. CPUs since then have gotten very nice gains YOY. …

My friends wouldn't leave a voicemail but a nurse at my doctors office absolutely would.

I'd be curious if the addition of zstd compression has any effect on the results. Could be a fun follow-up follow-up :-)

> but I think a lot of the particular "weird" vibe of the early days of the modern web is pretty much dead I take it you haven't had a 12 year old talk your ear off about Five Nights…

If you're looking for another person I was diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder as well.

I managed to score one and it gives me a new appreciation for the word "slow".

I mean enormous compared to an MP3 I guess but I have 19,000 FLAC tracks that takes up less than 500GB, pretty cheap to store that in 2023.

I quite like my DS1819+. Not exactly a powerhouse but it's rock solid and has zero drama.

I don't think it needs to be a moral argument, I just don't think you should be indignant if they don't cater to people not making them money.

I don't think my crew was ever super into mods. When we ran servers the most we would add was WorldEdit and /home commands. I had one friend super into Tekkit but frankly "automate thin…
