I will never use a Windows laptop because it wakes up in the middle of the night to apply some stupid update, then glitches out, and can't go back to sleep. So every morning I find a laptop with a dead battery. Sometimes if I wake up early, it'll still be hot from whatever it was doing.

Fixing that stupid bug should have been easier than porting the whole OS and app stack and emulator to a new CPU arch. And I have no faith they fixed the bug anyway, so it'll probably still happen to ARM models. So no thank you.

Must be using a cut down keyboard without an enter key.

What is this "world of content" the author is talking about? 17 years ago, the streaming options on Netflix were the previous season of Friday Night Lights, and... that was it. A few years later they got The Office, but never the current season. So you were always behind. These articles never seem to include a graph of available content over time.

tedu ,

You um... did know that um... mastodon did produce a um... product before the board change, right?

tedu ,

So what should a regulated search utility do about SEO spam? Maybe publish an open source algorithm so I can test my spam before submitting it?

tedu ,

Is there a seven paragraph summary or something I can read? It's a written document. I can just read it myself, maybe?

tedu ,

There's plenty of dumb to go around, but the word frunk by itself is the dumbest thing about this story.

All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week (arstechnica.com)

Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

tedu ,

You'd think management at Netflix would look at the effect their changes have had on income, and uh, take that in to account planning future changes. Or something, right?

tedu ,

The hardware unboxed video has more details, and squarely points the blame at Intel for previously saying that running the CPU at uncapped power was in spec.

tedu ,

It's just basically just a link. (For mastodon. I think hometown inlines it somewhat properly.)

tedu ,

If there were somehow a strict definition of the Article spec, mastodon would simply ignore it.

tedu ,

In general, I don't like rules about who's allowed to talk about elections, because they can just as easily be turned against the people, but these seem fairly balanced. They're not controlling the content of the messages.

tedu ,

This is just nonsense. The model doesn't even know what program is being run to do the inference.

tedu ,

I like how the verb in the headline evolves every time I see this story. First he was surprised. Then he was shocked. Now he's alarmed. Maybe I'll check back tomorrow and learn he's horrified!

tedu ,

The full quote if you don't want to read the article.

Another significant challenge was the impact of December workforce reduction. Although there’s no question that it was the right strategic decision, it did disrupt our day-to-day operations more than we anticipated. It took us some time to find our footing, but more than four months into this transition, I think we’re back on track and I expect to continue improving on our execution throughout the year getting us to an even better place than we’ve ever been.

And the full transcript of the earnings call if you want to read the whole thing.

The first amendment doesn't have an exception for retaliation.

tedu ,

Ignore the replies saying you did tag evan. If you look at the AP object, it's clear he wasn't tagged. If your intention was to notify him, what some random client does to the html later obviously won't do that.

tedu ,

No (not yet), I haven't found a need for that.

tedu ,

I'm confused. Is this a problem with the album or a problem with idiots on twitter?

tedu ,

What should we make pretend people with?

tedu ,

I am going to guess that Google will not be broken up right now.

tedu ,

Will be interesting to see how people react when Netflix rolls out mandatory two factor auth for logins.

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of "Twitter.com" to "X.com" automatically....

tedu ,

He doesn't just want the links to change. He wants the mindshare to change. To erase twitter.com from consciousness. Because X is like, super cool, man. So the solution is to rewrite tweets so it's impossible to say the ungood name.

Most of the games affected seem to be based on the Unreal Engine, which could point to a stability issue that Intel needs to address.

Certainly could be a CPU issue, but if all the affected games use the same engine, I don't know why you would conclude that.

The cost of ditching Windows 10 at your business and upgrading to the latest software might end up being a rather expensive process, Microsoft has revealed. Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025, with businesses then needing to pay out for its Extended Security Updates (ESU).

Why would anyone pay for extended support if they're ditching Windows 10 and upgrading to 11?

tedu ,

Was this article sponsored by Oracle?

tedu ,

Are they testing removing the news tab or are they testing different tab orders and a bug hid the news tab?

tedu ,

7700K supports popcnt.

tedu ,

Because people will click on the YouTube video you make trying it.

tedu ,

Are there examples? I click through to other buying options periodically, but haven't found many hidden deals in there.

tedu ,

Are you a regular reader of the Luzerner Zeitung? What do you think of their other tech reporting?

tedu ,

Fortigate have issued me a statement. The toothbrush DDoS story is completely made up.
