There are already small PCs without a GPU for around $200–300, and this will cost at least 2-3 times that. Valve already comfirmed, that the pricing will not be 'console like' and would match entry level PC. And PS5 is $500.

Have a limited screen time per-day rule, and let them choose whether they want to spend it watching cartoons OR playing video games.

> is it a skill issue that it doesn't just plug and play into my laptop?

But it is builtin android feature. You connect to laptop and notification pop up asking if you want to mount as usb transfer mode or just charge.

> is it a skill issue that swiping from the left goes back to the previous page and swiping from the right also goes back to the previous page?

Its probably your specific vendor option and you certainly can change it. But its definetly not universal android thing as it doesnt do anything from edge swipe by default.

> is it a skill issue that google translate requires me to have the google search app installed?

Its just regular app - it doesnt need anything additional.

> and that the google search app puts a big fuck off search bar in the middle of my home screen

Apps which places widgets on homescreen asks for permission unless you checked a checkbox to always allow. And all widgets can be removed from the screen anyway. These is no such thing as mandatory non removable widgets in Android.

So yeah, it looks like a skill issue if you are more familiar with how another system works and doesnt want to invest to figure out how to do the same in the Android. The UI is different and less familiar for you, but you can literaly do all the things as on iPhone, just in a different way.

I would love to have both. The scroll wheel is convenient when I’m driving, but the touchscreen would make entering a new address much easier, as it’s very annoying to do now by scrolling, and voice dictation doesn’t work well in my language.

> Society will set the standard, not the ones who work more, society as a whole sets that.

Agree. I started to work in remote team even before pandemic hit. And I quite often see people extending their work hours late until the midnight or sometimes even on the weekends, because they want to "catch up". But its their choice and it doesnt normalise it in our organisation. Nobody is setting it as an example and there is no such expectation from us and I highly doubt that it would change anytime soon.

New comment by reanimated in "Microsoft Is Forcing Me to Buy MacBooks"

reanimated — Sun, 04 Dec 2022 14:25:11 +0000

I think the issue with macbooks is similar, but happens when you have USB-C dock with an external display connected. When you close the lid while connected to the dock, mac does not go to sleep but just switches to using the external display (aka clamshell mode) and when you unplug your computer to put it in your backpack, it just remains active instead of going to sleep.

The solution to this is to install noclamshell via brew or just get in the habit of disconnecting your mac first before closing the lid.

I noticed this because previously it was sleeping completly fine and the problems started only recently which is inline then I started using the dock.

New comment by reanimated in "SpaceX Starlink is now its own ASN and present at the Seattle Internet Exchange"

On April SpaceX modified the architecture and submitted application to FCC proposing to operate more satellites in lower orbits. Previously they had approval to operate almost 3000 satellites in orbits between 1110-1300 km. Now the modified plan foresees 1500 satellites at altitudes between 540-570 km and another 7500 satellites in orbits around 345 km at later stages.

It's not correct. They orbit low enough that unresponsive Starlink satellite will fall out within a coupe of years.

It would be great if we could change color of the highlights. On some pages, especially with dark modes, green doesn't work.

Well, there are still affiliate links, you can still promote your own products like courses or books and invite readers to subscribe to paid newsletter. Most of my subscribed authors have Patreon now and it generates much more than ads would.

They have hired most of the industry talents, so I think it's quite silly to state about how little they understand about this. In my opinion nobody except Tesla and Waymo has more knowledge of this field.

There are high end drives on the PC market what can match and surpass that, but they are like $2000+ :) Linus talked about that topic last week: https://youtu.be/8f8Vhoh9Y3Q?t=1607

New console releases don't need to be particularly innovative or groundbreaking. They greatly improve the amount of the resources available to the game-devs and game development is console centric in the first place. Usually after new console launches game visual quality jumps quite noticeably in a couple of years. Its beneficial for everyone even if you are not console gamer yourself.

I think its incorrect way to view it like its either full self driving or none at all. We are getting incremental benefits from this already: cars are correcting and preventing driver errors. They make instant trajectory corrections or complete stop and prevents a huge crashes. With time they will be better and better at recognising traffic lights, road signs, sudden unforeseen situations and so on and that way driving safety will improve exponentially even before self driving capabilities.
