  • My problem is the lack of control. They tend to be digital devices, not analog, so I always find myself wanting a heat level between settings...

  • They could also achieve it with a mix of processor and battery improvements though?

    If you can double the battery density (not sure if that's feasible either?) then you can get away with less efficient silicon (within thermal limits)

  • More infuriating is media's insistence to measure electrical energy cost changes in comparison to some average user instead of just giving the unit price change, useless!

  • The BBC had a statement ready explaining and apologising - they should have added a graphical effect to highlight that it was joined.

    It should like the board of the BBC blocked it's release though.

    The problem is the politicalisation of the board rather than anything else

  • Lots of game recommendations here, but for hardware, look for a cheap MMO mouse. All the buttons you could ask for, on a single hand. Could unlock more games.

  • It's an island 14x8km size. You don't need a car.

  • I stand corrected then! TIL

  • It's a voice chat server. That's all it does. You can't post images, GIFs etc.

    Fine for if you just need voice, but good luck getting people away from discord.

    (Used it for WoW before discord)

  • The tortoise diff tool when doing most stuff.

    Winmerge if I am manually comparing directories (it can do images/pdfs too!)

  • Especially if you have slow internet

  • Doesn't that trap your arms inside? How do you signal?

  • I think north America only switched this last weekend?

    Had a non standard difference last week.

  • Depends how much time the hyperspace bypass saves.

  • They exist, but people don't leave them once there, so new jobs don't come up as often.

  • I mean, it's a useful feature.... But only if you have a good company culture.

  • The company I work for is an Azure shop. However, our provider for customer 2fa tokens uses AWS.... So still in trouble.

  • A lot of the time I paid to have it taught to me so badly that I would have been better off with a textbook. 😢

    They then call me up once every few years to ask for a donation! Fk off, I'm still paying off the loan!

  • I would argue that its rare for education to make you smarter, it mostly makes you more knowlegable.

    Knowledge is mostly free though. You can get it from the internet, from the library etc. A lot of what you are paying for is the certification - some places let you just sit the exam I think.

  • But if everyone else is down too, you don't look so bad 🧠
