Okay, full disclosure I have one of their units (got it from the Kickstarter) and I know Jeri, and I like their product. It is a lot of fun. But what I really like about this particular promo video is the sort of NSFW comedy that really conveys the spirit of Tilt5 in addition to the product.
They mean it is their flagship product , performance is not the only innovation companies do , it could be cost or something else.

Apple wouldn’t say the same at a SE release event
It's not an issue specific to USB-C. There are also plenty of USB-A/Micro-USB cables that don't have the data pins connected. Typically this is only an issue with super cheap electronics that only use USB-C as a connector for power and don't really follow the spec.

I haven't heard of a phone coming with a charge-only cable. Especially because that cable is usually used for syncing to a computer (iOS)/transferring data from an old phone (Android).

Part of C#'s popularity with indies is due to the legacy of XNA. Thousands, probably tens or even hundreds of thousands of indies got started with XNA and released games using it, so it's natural to stay on C# whether you move to FNA, MonoGame, Unity or Godot
FWIW keyboards have worked OK all along, I regularly use one of my wireless keyboards switched over to the phone to type longer stuff, though the autocorrect gets more annoying in that case.

Mice are a lot more annoying, because they're part of the assistive devices, so you need to enable Assistive Touch, and then you either have the mouse connected or the Assistive Touch menu taking space on the display, which is probably not useful if you're abled. If Assistive Touch is disabled, the mouse "works" but you don't get a visible pointer which is completely stupid.

Possibly connecting to an external display won't have that issue, or iOS 17 will make the experience a bit better for non-assistive mousing.

At least 3 big studies looking at this, the most recent of them on 150k people, so very robust numbers. Subsequent infections do increasing damage and each infection increases your chance of developing Long Covid and not recovering. People with existing new symptoms after a Covid infection also get worse very often.

Rather than building immunity we are accruing damage and the evidence underpinning it from the VA study and the more recent ones is massive.

This thread is full of a frustrating amount of poorly thought out convictions (someone actually said they would rather see 10 flights with 1 passenger than 20 flights full per day. Really? Are you totally mental???)

None of the environmental people on here are taking into account any benefit from these flights and none of the economics minded people have done a good job explaining why this is a bad idea, so here it goes:

The correct answer, as always is to price pollution properly with a carbon tax or cap and trade because then the most efficient providers can kill off the less efficient and provide more per the same unit of pollution. They don't want to do this because that inefficient provider is air france and the air france equivalents and those are sacred cows. A tax or cap and trade would also apply to other inefficient pseudo government sacred cows like state owned energy companies, etc. By putting in a minimum price on a narrow set of polluters they can then target stuff they don't like rather than preferentially hurt the worst offenders (which are often the government!) And they can make us all much poorer by artificially limiting consumer choice (which should never be the goal of pollution regulation. The goal of pollution regulation should be to limit pollution to an acceptable amount while maximizing benefit to consumers and the best, cheapest, easiest way for that to happen is by pricing the pollutant and letting consumers tell us what they want through their purchases at the new price. Its pretty much never achieved by government mandate because government cannot know your personal preferences across all of society.
I'd actually like to see a list of real world security incidents that occured on EOL android devices. Not out of date browsers. (Chrome can still be updated) but devices no longer getting OS security updates.. something tells me it's very very rarely if ever an actual issue in real life.
I don't have time in my life to tackle every single challenge presented to me, and there are over 355,000 achievements on Retro Achievements, not to mention thousands of speedrun leaderboards and other things. I have to pick and choose (or just play the game and get whatever I get). That particular achievement sounds like it would likely take a lot of time and be quite frustrating to pull off.

That being said, I'm not asking for it to be removed or anything. It's just not something I'm ever going to try to complete myself (maybe I'll manage it on accident). Clearly 4.5% of the people who have played the game with Retro Achievements have managed to pull it off.
It also shows the direction the M series, and I'm frankly happy with what they've shipped this year. Solid strategy, design and engineering.

When I get a new MacBook, a thunderbolt cable is still by far the best way for me to move the 1 or 2 TB of stuff from my old one over.
I still have nightmares from having adopted Thunderbolt 3 early when it was new (Lenovo T480 with TB3 dock). Tons of issues.

And my Surface Laptop 4 doesn’t even have Thunderbolt! But that’s a pathetic failure on Microsoft’s part.

Point being, Thunderbolt is amazing but in a very narrow usage corridor. When it works it’s amazing. When it doesn’t, jokes on you spending $90 on that single cable. I remember an LTT video on I think TB4, testing various combinations of devices and validating (in)compatibility, and spending a lot of time on Lenovo forums for support.

I suspect there's a lot of individual variation too.

COVID for me was exceptionally mild with the only annoyance being the total lost of smell for ~12 days. Otherwise, the dry cough wasn't any worse than the one I get when my allergies are in full force. Some people are just going to get worse cases and others won't. That's going to impact personal risk assessment.

My mother had an even milder case of COVID than I did (no cough), but RSV almost sent her to the hospital this past Thanksgiving. For all the fixation on COVID we tend to forget that there are other virus that can be lethal to certain demographics (e.g. advancing age).
Yea, but you have USB3 high speed, record pro-res directly onto, external storage.

So you can spend $100 on a 1TB external drive (rather than $100 on another 128gb of internal storage) and you're way better off. If you're use case is 4k60 ProRes, this makes WAY more sense than recording locally.
This is a pretty wild generalization to make. It's not hard to contrive scenarios where C++ with its notoriously slow stdlib (despised by game developers) is going to be slower than C# with its JIT doing runtime optimizations like guarded devirtualization.
Its very funny because .NET is open source and does not require a license. It has also steadily grown more powerful over years.

Hint: the raytracing GPU engines rely on general purpose GPU compute.

It does raytracing because it has raw power. What you use this power for is another story. It can easily augment the neural engine for example.
For some things location really, really matters because the processes involved have too many variables to control reliably and at-scale.

Weather/temperature/pressure patterns aren't trivial things to control, neither are soil conditions, or atmospheric composition (particulates, organisms, pollutants, etc).

So to say that XYZ cheese or wine or whiskey isn't unique because of where it comes from is a falsehood, that is something that should remain in use unless you can prove that it doesn't matter (which so far all meaningful attempts have failed).

What the issue is, really, is that naming rights/conditions/etc are by and large too restrictive in the EU. The US is much better in that respect, though still far from perfect, but what winds up happening, like you've said, is that large corporations leverage government in order to create regulations that benefit them in some way. That's a huge problem to solve, and exists in every industry that matters and many that don't.
Nobody believed it. Wireless charging just isn't there. Heat and speed need to improve first.

Peripherals, usb-a is still what you usually get, just going by what’s common on store shelves. Just got a new kit at work a few weeks ago—all these brand-new devices are made to plug into A, even if the other end is usb-c. They come with A-to-c cables, or else are A-only. In the former case, I can at least fix it by just using c cables I already have.

But, overall, the peripheral world as most people experience it is still A-first. C options are usually more expensive, may be part of why.

I'd assume the non-pros will remain on USB2, and that serves as a segmentation feature. Especially since only the pros can shoot in ProRAW and ProRES.

On iPads, the "base" iPad is on USB2 speeds, the mini supports 5Gbps, the air 10, and only the pro supports 40Gb USB4. And while SoC differences could explain differences between the iPad (A14) and Mini (A15), the 5th gen Air uses the same SoC as the 5th gen Pro which already did support 40Gb USB4. So it's not an SoC limitation.

Although they ended up putting the 48MP main camera on the non-pro and I thought that'd remain pro-exclusive as well so...

Unlike like measles or polio, these misnamed 'vaccines' don't prevent getting the disease nor transmitting the virus. I think young healthy people should get the disease, recover, develop antibodies, and be done with it. We did this for chicken pox until a couple decades ago.

I don't see anything about displays on that page. All I see is "iPhone 15 Pro lets you shoot ProRes video directly to external storage, so you can quickly switch drives and keep your iPhone camera rolling on set. Want to capture slow motion Hollywood style? Now you can record ProRes 4K at 60 fps to an external SSD."

I highly doubt the 15 Pro can drive a display. In the unlikely case that it can, you'll be limited to very low res. Why would they limit USB to 10gbps if the PHY can push the ~32gbps eDP bandwidth required for a modern display?
Yeah.. good luck with that !
unfortunately the CDC said early on that if you're vaccinated, you can't spread covid, that's clearly not the case.

> And what if Steam went belly-up? Would I lose everything I paid for? What if a game was removed and I lost access to it? What if the internet was slow?

Honestly? If that were to happen - just pirate it. Everything (well, almost) that's on Steam is also readily and easily available on the seven seas, if you know where to look.

Sure, that wouldn't be fair to you, but from a purely practical point of view you'd be able to access your games if Steam went belly-up, and still "own" them. (Although perhaps not legally, depending on where you live.)

I buy my games on Steam because it's convenient, to support the devs, and to support Valve's investment in Linux. But otherwise I wouldn't blink twice before pirating if I were, say, screwed over by Steam or by a game publisher.
No new nuclear power plants since 1989. Peak electricity grid contribution by nuclear power plants: ~30%, while oil and natural gas were used for heating (so replacing that with nuclear power means doubling NPP output, roughly). So Germany still would have had to increase its nuclear power plant capacity 6-fold to go all in.

Compared to France (70% from nuclear power, natural gas for heating in only ~1/3 of homes) this hardly looks like leadership.

As for the reasons: There has been a series of events where nuclear reactors weren't properly handled and where politics colluded with the operators to sweep it under the rug. No matter how safe the technology _could_ be, its management was horrendous.

One such example was a "passively safe" reactor that by now is a glowing mess for 40 years already, and will remain so for another 60-80 years before it can be dismantled: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVR_reactor

Key quote from that Wikipedia article: "The report listed hidden or downplayed events and accidents and described serious concealed problems and wrongdoings. For example, in 1978 operators bypassed reactor shutdown controls to delay an emergency shutdown during an accident for six days."

As long as people argue about the merits of the technology, they miss the German discourse on nuclear power completely.

Your high temperature radiators are likely throwing away 20% of your heat, so you probably need to include that in your sums:

https://www.theheatinghub.co.uk/why-our-condensing-boilers-d...

> The boiler does not reach 90%+ efficiencies until the return temperatures are around 45°C. This means water must exit the boiler at a maximum of 65°C, impart 20°C of heat to the room via the radiators, and return at 45°C.

edit: and if you read further they suggest that oversized boilers like yours have further efficiency losses:

> When boilers fire up, they automatically ramp up to 70% of their maximum output. For a 21kW boiler (common is most homes) this would be around 15kW. Given that only 6kW is needed on a very cold day, the boiler is always going to overheat the system. When the radiators cannot get rid of enough heat the return temperatures to the boiler are too high for it to condense.
And indeed, PalM 2 Bison is one of the LLMs covered in discussed link.
