Probably so they can discontinue ChromeOS like they discontinue everything.

It’s got 2-4x as much RAM as the average apple device so maybe that makes at a Newton pro max ultra

This guy computers

Imagine the possibilities when AI gets involved and can’t distinguish between killing children (programming) vs IRL.

Isn’t yours?

The plot thickens, do keep us apprised of developments. The polished surface should make it easier to remove contaminants.

I’m really excited about how great KDE has become in recent years. It was getting scary back when KDE4 had lots of problems and gnome3 was devoid of all functionality. Nowadays KDE makes the Linux desktop truly a pleasure to use.

Just playing files via NFS storage. I haven’t ever tried Jellyfin so I’m not sure.

It’s really fantastic on SHIELD pro for playing stuff from a NAS. This newest release finally has full Dolby vision support.

A chat app for every friend and a launcher for every game. We live in a utopia.

I’d be down for something like this replacing the current RGB LED strip fad. It’s got so much potential to be both useful and badass cool at the same time.

Of all of the bullshit tech out there I’m not sure why you chose ray tracing to pick on. I remember how cool stuff like pov-ray was in the 90s and how cool it would be to have good lighting in real time some day. It’s kind of here now and it adds some flair to certain games. Far from essential but it’s more interesting than the bullshit “innovation” that happens elsewhere these days. Phones are miserable for this.

The S9 was a solid choice and came with expandable storage, a headphone jack, and a notification LED - which I miss dearly… but by goodness is it slow as hell and stopped getting security patches.

Someone there wants to go back to 20+ years ago when your friends mom’s Internet Explorer windows included 75 different toolbars and there was only a little bit of browser space left. The hayday of “Buddy Bar” is returning for your Edge, Outlook, and Taskbar. Next will be explorer and Excel. The future is looking bright.

If only they’d cut the shit with iMessage

Virtual card numbers usually work well. I always made sure to use them with stuff like SiriusXM and other clowns that make cancellations difficult. You can leave them active or cancel them arbitrarily. Some card companies let you set them up via their app or website.

You might be able to fix this by disabling “modern standby”. That was the key on my Dell laptop from work having the same issue and threatening to melt my backpack every night.

No it limits the total amount, but it is reasonable that they added a dedicated power input. I’m guessing we’ll see even more of that on ATX12VO motherboards or similar. Seems like power standards are changing a lot and manufacturers are waiting for things to settle down.

They laid off quality control.

After all that you get to tinker around with their shit VPN client that only works during one phase of the moon.

I managed to fiddle around with my work Dell laptop and disable that nonsense. I think it was called “modern standby”. I don’t understand why this isn’t considered a fire hazard. It was terrifying to leave my laptop in my backpack until I figured out the fix.
