  • Vision Pro Teardown—Why Those Fake Eyes Look So Weird

    Jump

  • I don't know, I could see the value if it really looked like the mask was semi transparent.

    So it's a cool idea, the only problem is that they didn't deliver and the result is creepy instead.

  • A quick look back at Corel Linux OS, another attempt to make a competing Windows-like OS

    Jump

  • Sure, but I don't know what their value proposition for their customers was. Except "we want to take a piece of the cake from Microsoft", which their customers didn't care about.

    Why would anyone use that instead of Windows?

  • A quick look back at Corel Linux OS, another attempt to make a competing Windows-like OS

    Jump

  • Yes, the problem is that the main reason people used Linux was because it was Free Software.

    So a proprietary Linux didn't bring the usual benefits of Linux, it was just one more proprietary OS. And unlike BeOS or NeXT it didn't bring much to the table compared to Windows or other Linux distributions.

    Masturbation abstinence is popular online. Doctors and therapists are worried

  • Prostitution exists at all price points.

  • The man who owes Nintendo $14m: Gary Bowser and gaming’s most infamous piracy case

    Jump

  • He only has to pay 20% of his left over after expenses like rent.

    And if the GoFundMe reaches the amount he owes, he'll be a free man.

  • Apple’s Vision Pro battery pack is hiding the final boss of Lightning cables

    Jump

  • I believe that's why they make it impossible to remove without a sim card tool, so they can argue that it's an internal connection that the user is not supposed to remove.

  • Commercials Are Streaming’s New Norm, and Creators Aren’t Happy: “It’s Almost Worse Than Broadcast”

    Jump

  • Kinda, Plex still changes my homepage with their ads once in a while

  • Removed

    GoFundMe Is a Boon for Disaster Survivors. Especially the Wealthy Ones. Campaigns on the crowdfunding site raised more money for wildfire survivors with high incomes than for those who need help most

    Jump

  • Even if you're giving to a stranger, you're more likely to give to someone similar to you.

    So rich people will have more empathy for other rich people because they have more in common.

  • IBM to Managers: Move Near an Office or Leave Company

    Jump

  • So they have to move to an office, any office?

    Meaning they can no longer be remote but don't have to be in the same office as the people they manage?

    That makes a lot of sense.

  • The floppy disk refused to die in Japan - laws that forced the continued use of floppies have finally hit the chopping block

    Jump

  • When needed, they can change it faster than Japan did.

  • First Bipedal Robots With Hands Coming to BMW Factory

    Jump

  • That's already the case. Just look at a car factory assembly line, they're full of robots already but none of them look like humans.

  • A 30-fold rise of measles cases in 2023 in the WHO European Region warrants urgent action

    Jump

  • It's not the harmless side effects they fear, it's (overblown) serious side effects that they fear. There is the Guillain Barré syndrome that is real but very rare, as well as a lot of imagined serious side effects like death.

  • First Bipedal Robots With Hands Coming to BMW Factory

    Jump

  • It's 1000x easier to redesign the factory around robots than building and operating humanoid robots.

  • Stop using Opera Browser and Opera GX

    Jump

  • To be fair, Opera in the 2000's was craming every single feature they could think about in their browser.

    So sure, they got some interesting features before the others but they also had hundreds of useless features cluttering the UI.

  • Bloomberg: Apple targets 2028 release date for its own electric vehicle

    Jump

  • My fusion drive iMac was rendered unusable by an OS update that was optimized for SSD and put any hard drive Mac to a crawl.

    I had to change to a SSD, which was very fun because I had to unglue the screen and glue it back when I was done.

  • Gen Z falls for online scams more than their boomer grandparents do. The generation that grew up with the internet isn’t invulnerable to becoming the victim of online hackers and scammers.

    Jump

  • To be fair, cars are becoming less and less serviceable.

    I had a light bulb that died on my car, and tried to change it myself. How hard could that be?

    Turns out the light bulb is so buried under the engine I ended up giving up and bringing it to the shop. And often even independent shops can no longer service cars, you have to bring it to your maker's dealership because only they have the proprietary tooling to fix it.

  • Amsterdam landlord ordered to lower rent for tiny, leaky room from €1,950 to €95 per month

    Jump

  • Or simply getting the "rest" of the rent in cash

  • Gen Z is choosing not to drive

    Jump

  • Singapore is just as big as NYC, and almost as dense. Cross border commuters from Malaysia do exist but are not the norm because it's a big pain.

    Also what's true is Singapore might be true in NYC but NYC is not the norm in US, it's the exception.

  • If you believe the game to be malware you should not play it. Even if it doesn't have a kernel-level anticheat.

    A binary on Windows can do pretty much whatever it wants.
