More on the curse side, tbh. Mostly because RAM and flash chips have exploded in price and fabs get now booked by NVIDIA et al where previously Apple was the biggest dog and could demand better conditions. But well,…
https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/ can be helpful to run newer macOS versions on older hardware. I used a 2011 Air till 2024 that way. But in principle you are right, the 7y is too restrictive.
They have better blacks and no light bleed. The colors are more vivid and spectral too. However, whether you really notice a difference reading on the thing I kinda doubt.
I have my reservations. The cats can also use AI to make their software less buggy or even formally verified. If I had to venture a guess it would be that this is the last stand for hackers that are able to root all…
I doubt it, tbh. How many people will install such a HackIOS in the best case, 1000? 10000? There have to be a billion or more iOS users out there, so the pressure on app vendors or Apple will be negligible.
Of course contraception was available, just not the pill. Condoms were a thing back then.
Maybe you are right, but Apple is selling hundreds of millions of iPads per year, so just maybe most people are content with the hard- and software and will just adapt to some quirks. I am personally not always happy…
>In Japan, around 30 per cent of men and 15 per cent of women work for more than 50 hours per week. That doesn't make a lot of sense. 50hr/w was the norm in many countries till the 1960's or so, and yet people were…
Iran is a pain in the ass, but the latest round of escalation was started by Israel and the USA.
In their "License" section on Github, they write "This project is not derived from Darling." - so they clearly are familiar with it.
It's only Java on macOS for x64 that gets dropped. Java on Apple's M-type CPUs will still be alive and kicking.
Java 25 is an LTS, I guess you can use that for a couple of years still. But at some point of time, macOS will be too old and all kinds of software will no longer install.
> Automate the pilot out. That's a complete non-starter for now and the next decades. Fully automated operation for 1-dimensional transport (trains) is a solved issue, for 2D, not so much and most certainly not for 3D.…
Obviously this is a personal preference, but the multiple layers of beveled grey on the Qt UI is not something I like, as it forces a lot of grouping on the eye where it doesn't serve any purpose. I would go with the…
Germany IS suffering from high energy prices, but renewables are only a small part of the problem. It was a mistake to shut down the working nuclear power plants, and that also coincided with the abrupt loss of all…
The guy is located in Germany, and disclaimers of that sort do not work here. IF something breaks because of this commit, he will be liable - not that I believe this 2y old kind of prompt injection still works or anyone…
Why would you write a lot of software to find the closest match (which doesn't even seem that good) if you could also ask a subject expert? I guess you could even just post a photo to some subreddit with people who…
That was roughly 3 weeks ago, with the reprising of Claude 4.7 and GPT 5.5, things have become more spicy.
>It was Schröder’s administration that shut down Germany’s nuclear power plants. That's not even true, it was Merkel's administration. Under Schröder, the plan for the phase-out was formulated and set in motion, only to…
I guess some of the legacy carriers are now drinking champagne since they got rid of one of the more aggressive ULCC competitors. However, if you wait till your competition goes broke, you need to ensure you survive…
That, however, would be vastly more expensive. Maybe worth it from an overall ecological PoV, but I doubt power companies have an appetite for the CAPEX involved.
>wireless modems They (Apple) bought out intel's wireless modems and are using them instead of Qualcomm's chips. IIRC, they aren't the best in class when it comes to raw throughput, but quite good in terms of throughput…
It is wild how ARM - which was kind of a niche company and ISA - has taken the world by storm since the modern smartphone was born. Now their designs make their way upwards to big iron and AI datacenters.
I loved playing around with KPT Bryce so much. IDK if it ever was used productively, but it was so ahead of its time.
Their previous lock-downs were on the hardware level, not offering ISA slots and stuff. The original Mac (then Mac+ and classic) had no expansion slots at all, and they started adding them only later.
