Windows stopped having serious malware problems at least 10 years ago

the ransomware campaigns would have happened on any OS enterprises use, because they were not security flaws in the OS

its worse than that, Windows activates/deactivates "bugs" based on the compatibility profile of the app.

so you can set an app to use a Windows XP compatibility profile, and this will simulate Windows bugs which were fixed in more recent versions of the OS

selling LLMs is much more profitable than trading, and with much less risk

same here, but there is no real market for somebody to bother yet

remember when HN was saying "nobody wants big smartphones, why does the industry keep doing this? iPhone 4 size is the perfect size"

hint - the industry is doing EXACTLY what (most) consumers want. there is a big difference between what a consumer tells you they want, and what actually they pay for

among other things, cinemas can have many more channels - 12.1 is a standard which also has speakers above you (ceiling) and bellow you

I've been to IMAX cinemas where the volume was so loud my ears physically hurt

I understand them, they want to shake you in the seat, to make it an experience (unlike watching at home), but it's ridiculous I have to consider bringing earplugs
