Every affected company should be extremely thankful that this was an accidental bug, because if crowdstrike gets hacked, it means the bad actors could basically ransom I don’t know how many millions of computers overnight

Not to mention that crowdstrike will now be a massive target from hackers trying to do exactly this

Personally I would choose a processor with AI capabilities over a processor without, but I would not pay more for it

I have a Lenovo slim 7 pro x (14arh7), and everything works perfectly outside the box (depending on your model, maybe the wifi card can give you trouble or require extra drivers though). It has a great large trackpad, 120hz 14.5 inch 3k display, perfect for programming and text with 200% integer scaling, an rtx 3050 for the occasional gaming and a Ryzen 6800hs. The only big downside imo is that the ram is soldered, so I’d suggest finding one with 32gb. I got mine new for 1000cad at the end of 2022 so you could certainly find it for cheaper used.

Isn’t android 15 about to become stable? As someone who would be interested in getting a fair phone, I that kind of makes me want to reconsider. I like getting up to date software because I hate being a year late on features

Alternate title: “Billionaire that doesn’t contribute anything to the local community threatens to go away”

It’s the same as people saying we shouldn’t raise taxes for the ultra rich because they will go away, as if they didn’t benefit from the tax paid services for free

The question really is why do they keep hanging to NTFS? It’s like 156 years old at this point, there are so many newer alternatives like btrfs that are faster, support bigger drives and have more features like snapshots

That doesn’t really explain why the file explorer compiled for 64-bit computers is slow as balls

The real answer is no one. They will quickly realize that at the root of the economy are the regular people, and since the economy is a cycle, when you cut off a part, the cycle doesn’t work anymore.

People (doomers) here are saying businesses and rich people will, but this can only, work for a limited time, because either the products will shoot up in price since only the rich can afford them, or the businesses won’t be able to sell their products, so they can’t buy new things, which means no more revenue to the shareholders.

Think of all the companies that live from b2b models, when you look closer, they are all at some the suppliers of b2c businesses, except, maybe military companies. That company that makes the lithography machines (asml) only sells to other businesses such as tsmc. Tsmc also only sells to other businesses, but they sell to businesses that sell to consumers.

Ay, just this after noon I was wondering how my phone got from 35 to 20 percent in an hour or two while being mostly unused

I think it’s more like what Mozilla is to google; Linux to Microsoft is a tool to prevent antitrust issues

A scale and a legend would have been pretty helpful, and a specific criteria as well, because we don’t have the info on what was used to measure how supportive or not a province is

There’s other reasons to dislike Aral but these ain’t them. My list is more like:

• If you have the audacity to contradict him he’ll block you in 0.01s
• he feels entitled to FOSS projects catering to his very specific edge case
• he always finds a way to complain, even when it’s objectively good news, big doomer energy

Telecom industry is so corrupt here it’s unbelievable they get away with it

Interesting, I’ve always wondered how much battery my always on VPN consumes, it seems not much, but still not an insignificant amount. But my biggest worry with always on vpns is the idle usage, and its good to see its basically non extistent!

Yeah 100%. the current government here has a tendency to do bad stuff and a big fear here is they will slowly make it more private owned. But I think that every essential service should be state owned. electricity, groceries, clothing, internet etc. We have too few companies here that share too much of the market

Thanks for getting to our level on your own 😘

Fair point
