I find it witty than the removal of the notch is seen as great progress. Why was it even there in the first place? My 2012 Macbook has no notch.
This argument comes up a lot but I think it's like saying "cars are expensive - you can get an awful lot of bus trips with the monetary value of a car, so why not just use the bus?" Despite this, cars seems awfully…
But does the money itself weigh more than the weight difference? A question to ponder.
If you take an Apple computer from the early OSX releases (an iMac G4 from 2002, for example), you will be able to use it exactly as you use macos today. This indicates a success for UX. You cannot say the same about…
My Huawei Watch GT 2 is a few years old and the battery life is (and always has been) better than my wife's (new last year?) Apple Watch SE (GPS) 2nd Generation. They do exactly the same things. I simply don't…
I believe that user interfaces have just got appallingly bad. Compare Windows 3.11 which came with a paper manual and had about 5 pages detailing scrollbars, buttons, menus and window controls. That is all you had to…
Replying to myself as I cannot edit now: and therefore since wxWidgets is the native user interface, it has no "look"
True, but this is only the case if the track pads are absolutely awful, like you get in very low quality Windows laptops.
I am not sure how you would play a game and watch a video at the same time, unless you have independent eyes?
Intriguing, thank you.
I see comments on here that refer to something someone has said before, for example, "as I said before", or "I said this the other month", as if the entire universe is following a single person's statements. It seems…
It is interesting how people are confusing depth of field with AI generated. It's a shame, but perhaps it will end the bokeh conversations and disparaging of M43 sensors.
Out of curiosity, how do you rent such a device and who do you do it with? I'd be interested.
I'm wondering what decrease in performance you were expecting from a five year old computer? It isn't like the processor suddenly gets slower simply because it's older.
Perhaps it is the annoyance of change for change's sake. If you buy a car and then the interior changes after an update, it'd be pretty annoying, yet that is what is foisted on us.
Why not use something like wxWidgets?
Using a library that wraps the native system is also good - eg. wxWidgets. I find it very nice to work with compared to attempting to learn any of the myriad UI attempts Microsoft introduced later.
But it is impacting everything. Even the new Sony RX camera has a slower sensor readout from the years old model simply because they can't get hold of the DRAM.
Even better, older Nikon DSLRs are now cheap with many F-mount lenses being incredibly cheap versus buying new mirrorless gear and lenses. M43 systems are also excellent for bird watching given the 2x crop factor, and…

I would feel the opposite. I dare not write a program in C. The mentality of RAII and destructors for resource management is so ingrained that attempting to track resource use and lifetime in C would be nightmarish.
What an awful video, not only because of the content of many PHP-running sites being exploited, but also because of the awful glitching and vignette effect, an odd dancing anime girl at the bottom and the horrendous…
I have a 16GB 5060 and 32GB system. RAM - are there any recommended Qwen 3.8 Flash models worth running on this ? I am using Nemotron 30B A3B at the moment
I don't understand how their work can be considered fascinating if an insight into their internal processes shows that they are completely detached from reality. This would mean that their work output is also detached…
I don't understand saying you have an emotional attachment to doing something. Normally you do things in a certain way because it is functional and works. What we're seeing from these LLM companies is them proposing new…
