I mean it is but it isn’t. I think Nilay wanted to get the Verge back at the top of the search engine results but also wanted to make a point about why he had to do it. It’s funny because it’s really 2 paragraphs about it and then the rest of it is a normal article about the best printer lol. And the fun Gemini thing thrown in.
Lol again, everyone in this community loves to call The Verge corporate shills but then has no problem upvoting and commenting on posts like these. Like if the Verge were truly biased by corporate interests, wouldn’t an article like this be the place most ripe for that bias to show through and be a problem?
I get that the community is not a hive mind and is made up of many different people, but on posts where people are criticizing the Verge because they don’t like the way they show the corporate viewpoint you’d be drowned out completely if you were to argue anything otherwise. The irony just kills me.
Not to be pedantic but wouldn’t it be IsFirstLoginWithAttemptedPassword or am I missing something?
Just FYI steam compresses the data and shows the throughput with compression so the number will be higher than your actual download bandwidth.
Define “good” ping. (Latency is the proper term)
Edit: Nvm, just saw your other comment. 50ms isn’t bad.
30ms+ is high for cable in my experience. I was getting routinely in the high teens and low 20s.
On fiber I get less than 10ms.
It’s a good thing you answered truthfully. Cannabis affects the way anesthesia works so they may not have given you enough if you had lied and said no.
PSA to anyone getting any sort of anesthetic/anesthesia. Always be truthful about your marijuana use.
Exactly my thought. This should never reach SCOTUS though because this is so objectively unconstitutional that every court should throw it out before it ever even comes to trial.
I’m gonna sum up my feelings on this with a (probably bad) analogy.
AI taking software developer jobs is the same thinking as microwaves taking chefs jobs.
They’re both just tools to help you achieve the same goal easier/faster. And sometimes the experts will decide to forego the tool and do it by hand for better quality control or high complexity that the tool can’t do a good job at.
Good thing there’s no Spotify for sheet music yet… I probably shouldn’t give them ideas.
Support for Palestine does not equal antisemitism. And it’s incredibly problematic that that’s what you’ve implied here.
But then the company doesn’t get to charge you 1500% markup on the cost of it every couple weeks/months so it’ll never happen.
It does, you can manually install windows 11 even without the hardware “requirements”
Everyone is fear mongering over this. It’s the same shit how windows 10 didn’t officially support a bunch of systems but you could install it anyway.
The point is to normalize not working extra hours so companies stop expecting it. It’s not anti-worker at all.
Why are we using Fox News as a source for a science related topic? Lul…
That’s how the normal doors work because they aren’t permanently secured in place. The reason is weight as it pretty much always is in aviation design.
Lexus is made by Toyota
I’m well aware :) I don’t think that really changes anything of what I said though. Them being owned by the same parent company doesn’t really change anything other than the company culture of reliability, but even so Toyotas are more well known for their reliability. Luxury cars are also inherently less reliable just due to the fact they have more parts and also newer technologies for the luxury aspect that sometimes haven’t had all the kinks engineered out yet.
Lol I don’t think the reliability difference between Lexus and Toyota is measurable. If anything I see way more old Toyotas on the road than I do old Lexuses. But that may be just because less were produced.
I definitely feel like you could find a help desk position making about that much, just gonna be about getting lucky finding one that is remote that would be willing to give you a chance. But you never know until you try.
Lol Ukraine may not have taken back the country during its counter offensive but the US won extremely big by showing the Russian military isn’t actually the 2nd best in the world, probably not even top 10.
