“Slop me, mommy!” is the command.

O&O 👌🏻
(Unless there’s something better, it’s what I use on other ppls computos.)

That penguinish N900 tho …

Thx!

Where did you get those stats from?

I only found this, lol.

Is it that slower than the top 8-cores from 2016?

8GB of RAM is also significantly more than the 2 or 3 a decade ago in top-of-the-line phones.

Anyways, I doubt use cases for these wound use much CPU, imho if it’s at like a Raspberry 5 level it’s usable (does it also not have a good GPU?), and I’m glad it’s not built around ESP32.

With these specs the company needs to explain why they aren’t offering more powerful options imo.

Market prices, and all the Qualcomm chips are pre-hogged (and closed sauce). Actually there might not be many more powerful mobile chips out there.

Literally libre hardware tax ;).

Other phone manufacturers get monies from phones other than the selling price (ad revenue, money from eg Facebook for preinstalling their app, revenue from their on-phone un-uninstallable stores, etc). Like printers or gaming consoles, the hardware is subsidised.

(And ofc scale, that’s a huge hurdle on it’s own.)

The price is kinda ok on this one.

It rages against the undying of it’s light.

Yeah, but why aren’t adaptive lights everywhere & mandated by law?

Yes, this!
It’s exactly what I do too (finger that button).

Ppl are angry at a tech bcs it works 90% of the time instead of 100.00% … and rather use the alternative that they themselves removed about how it doesn’t work either.

Those are all high beams.

If they are pointed at a person that is against the law & a dick move by a person (regardless if it’s a mechanical failure).

Brightness isn’t bad, it’s a safety feature.
(And countries do have a min/max brightness laws, measured a bit differently tho.)

There is also a failure of the greedy car industry - we have adaptive headlights (where you have your high beans beams dynamically shaded or separated to not shine on other cars specifically) for 30 years now but they remain optional extras (except on Chinese cars). And memes of cars shining in your face exist.
(USA only allowed this a few years back, that’s why in the USA movies even cars promoted by that movie always used the base model ugly headlights.)

(This last low beam adaptive bit is from the 70s actually.)

The second failure is also legislative - all the places that don’t have legislature setting the max height (positioning from the ground) of headlights have SUVs shining lights in ppls faces even when just using low beams.

As said, ppl are just dicks with high beams, low beams set too high, and using fog lamps all the time bcs it’s ‘sporty’.

Ah, the pondering orbs.

They leaked all the free HDDs (still hot!) in the AI datacentre near you!

Finally, The Straight of HornyMoose name makes sense.

Magnificent beast!
And (for some reason) still how a proper bike looks like in my mind :).

Who dis?

Whoa, this is amazing! I know there are an insane amount of spoder species out there, but how we keep discovering completely new hunting techniques is awesome.
What’s next, spiders with harpoons?

yt/r60hx-pVPrY, yt/Da7MCEz1dhs (more info)

Are they new to profit maximisation?? Did they forget to paywall that info? Don’t they know they could charge monies for that exact personal info, like the rest of the megacorps do?

Remember - you should probably consider that anything you “give” (ie they have the ability to get from you, regardless of tos) to a company can or is getting to known & unknown third-parties. At the very least for targeted ads.

But it’s tough in cases where alternatives don’t really exist, or are there significant hurdles for average ppl.

May hot piss forever trickle down on that scholar of fascism.

Oh, … I got caught not reading the article, but I assume that goes for Microsoft as well - they do use indexing, right? Have since ever (but in those days you had to manually enable indexing, bcs slow HDDs at the time really bottlenecked)?

By “instant” I meant for indexed content (including installed things, etc). Idk, I don’t search much locally, but if I need a txt file from Documents that how I get it (Linux tho).

Doesn’t Spotlight on Macs work the same-ish or did they enshitify that too?

Edit: The article only says that they turned off Bing results (and added a toggle for the store)? That’s just how Windows users using O&O experienced search this whole time, right?
I don’t immediately see how this is different to eg KDE search functionality (also with added cools that I can do it in desktop, not having to click the search/start before).
