Windows is falling off because they missed the mobile boat.
Most people never needed a full computer. All they do is consume and a phone and iPad is more than enough for that.
The desktop market is shrinking and the steam deck is pumping Linux numbers in an increasingly smaller pond.
Most people don’t need them. The gaming and workstation laptop market is smaller than ever. The integrated graphics has been “good enough” for a while now.
Presumably a Wan modern could fit in one of those little USB port things.
Companies don’t have morals, if Trump disappeared tomorrow and was replaced with Bernie Sanders or whatever they would swap right back.
Yeah and the worst part is it doesn’t fucking work for the one thing it’s supposed to do.
The only thing it does is stop the stupidest low effort scrapers and forces the good ones to use a browser.
CloudFlare has become an Internet protection racket and I’m not happy about it.
That’s the dementia. At this point he is increasingly acting senile.
Dual booting has always been a pain in the ass. Unless you’re a multiplayer gamer that needs kernel level Anti-Cheat it’s easier to just swap over and suffer the transition.
I’ve started asking people what they have created lately… They seem to take it as an insult when it isn’t meant to be.
The reality is consuming is easier than producing. You can see it with the usage of phones and tablets vs laptops. It’s hard to create on a touch screen but it’s easy to consume.
I have not played a Forza game since the first one. What did they do to muck it up? I assume the usual live service / micro transactions cancer.
I laugh whenever some one thinks the government is “inefficient” and that the company will be more efficient. I’ve watched publicly traded companies waste a tonne of money on various boondoggles.
Usually the company survives despite the incompetence for other reasons.
Any male dominated channel that ever “gives advice” gets shunted into that pipeline by algo pretty consistently.
I like stand up comedy and it’s a full time job keeping Rogan out of my suggestions.
Honestly if they spend that on weapons and then use it lower the population it could help.
Shoot maybe Thanos was right…
The average person doesn’t even have a proper computer anymore. I guess you’re can still torrent on your phone but I’ve not tried it.
So funny thing about Aylo, which used to be called mind geek, they own quite a lot of porn sites. Probably 5 or 6 of the top ten.
I don’t have any experience with police in Europe but in North America you would give them a paid vacation till things blow over and perhaps shuffle them around to another dept and let them spoil another bunch.
The hacker community it’s very focused on Linux since most servers in the world run it. The fly by night script kiddies and botnet creators definitely prefer end user systems though.
It really depends on what Trump means by " built in the US". It won’t be that big of a jump if Apple is just assembling them there. If every component has to come from the US it’s likely impossible.
Apple is vertically integrated in a way many companies are not. It would be bad for them for sure but they already have really high profit margins. They could eat the cost and assemble in the US, but they won’t because they are already a velban good.
Let me give you a bit of the outside of the story as well.
For sure tiktok and meta and Google want you in their walled Garden for all the obvious reasons. However, and it’s gotten even worse as of late, if you have any kind of computationally expensive but desirable content/data the crawlers/scrapers/scripters will pummel your site. Despite how annoying you find the captchas and bot detection a computer doesn’t give too shits about it and at this point they basically serve as a rate limit or effort to make your content too computationally expensive to scrape and be worth it.
While accounts don’t necessarily solve this problem they do help as another impediment.
I only get these types of videos in shorts. In all the other stuff is like “we see you watched one video on this topic so here is 400 more”
