Probably the same reason it hasn’t happened in the majority of countries with similar solar opportunity.

the second sentence of the section titled "The best Linux laptop audio you’ve ever heard" says "Just install Fedora Asahi Remix and enjoy high-quality audio right out of the box, no setup needed."

I don't think this is unique to Apple as my Chase cards do this. I'm assuming most CCs do.

Getting your data out of their platform to do analysis on it use to be such a PIA. Have they resolved this yet?

Whats even worse - they do make it for Switch, which is ARM based. A lot of the leg work has already been completed.

I understood deadnaming to generally pertain to gender identity. I don't think it's far-fetched to initially consider Asahi Lina's name as a Pseudonym/Alias/Pen-Name, as many creatives (authors, artists, musicians) have been doing for hundreds of years.

If it is a gender identity decision, I still don't view it as malicious for the OP to ask. The context just isn't there in the blog post to make that clear.

Its Switzerland, so I'd assume the mountains and snow play a big part in increasing the cost of surface road building and snow clearing, making tunnels more attractive.

As Mojave is in beta right now, I don't think Apple feels obligated to rush out a Supplemental update like they did for their production OS. Also not sure how they would have already patched in Mojave if they hadn't had it fixed in HS when the hardware was released.

I expect the next Mojave beta release to resolve this, but don't expect the next release to come faster due to this bug.

I believe they opened up Apple Music for third party integration. Sonos should be able to integrate it into their native control app to solve your issue?

I view your thought process as how 'group think' and 'reddit culture' starts to permeate HN

The concept of what you are saying is true. The exact details and flags of what drives the proactive optimization is the secret sauce.

Competition breeds innovation. Yes, we are one planet and one species, but our species is Human and we have an innate nature to compete!

Apple's battery tests are much more real world than I have to translate for other companies.
