Has Moore’s law is dead ever actually leaked something that ended up to be accurate and actually sourced from him originally

It seems like every time a tech leak is wrong you end up seeing his name with it

Smear campaign or not, their marketing and social media presence is aggressive and obnoxious on purpose. It seems to be purely focused on getting as many eyes on them as possible without actually considering what those eyes will think of them after getting the desired attention.

When I think of PETA I don’t think of an organization with strong moral and ethical principles, I think of an organization that made a bunch of tone-deaf video game parodies in the 2000s to try and get attention. Those are wounds that are entirely self-inflicted.

It’s less what’s in the chicken nugget and more what isn’t in the chicken nugget

Not really any nutritional value mixed with a lot of sugars and fats

Thanks

Bro understands they exist

You wouldn’t want to disappoint Robert Lincoln McNeil Jr. would you?

Don’t disappoint Bob

It’s less the developer team that did it and more the shareholders and executive team that has turned the product to complete trash.

It’s so dumb, even with the AI stuff I wouldn’t care that much if it was just a new thing the OS could do if the rest of the thing was actually stable. But they seem to be allergic to doing some actual house cleaning and instead keep bolting things on.

The fact that the explorer can regularly completely freeze up nowadays or flat out crash is actually insane. That should be at the top of the priority list before anything else gets worked on. But instead they decided: let’s add a new keyboard shortcut to open a really laggy copilot chat interface.

It’s less the vibe coding and more: this is what happens when you have the developers do all the QA and fire the actual QA staff.

They’ve been screwing up the Windows updates since Windows 10, vibe coding wasn’t a thing at that point.

The NAND market is an effective monopoly that has been caught price fixing in the past. They desperately want to keep prices as high as they can so they tightly control supply to prevent having any excess product. This screws everyone over as soon as there’s a spike in demand that they failed to account for.

Instead of just keeping a consistent supply and allowing prices to drop from competition, we end up with a price rollercoaster that peaks every few years then crashes back down again. The severity is just higher than usual due to the higher demand from data centers.

The market desperately needs a new player that just consistently creates supply instead of playing stupid games, but the barrier to entry is too high.

I like GN but Steve is definitely a little smug at times, but he’s earned it considering how often he’s correct.

If I’m going to lose the main things I like about Android, like customizing things and installing my own software. Then yeah I would actually jump ship to the alternative because the chips are faster, the battery life is better, and the software would effectively be on par.

The point is that the jump would no longer be from a somewhat open platform to a closed one. It would be a jump from a closed platform to another closed platform.

It’s been long enough now that I can’t really remember off the top of my head. I want to say I started using Photoshop about a year or two after CS6 came out? And I would have been using GIMP for at least a few years prior to that before I had ever even seen the Photoshop UI.

Basically any TV out there you can get rid of the annoying post processing. But none of them are going to be that way out of the box.

I’ve used both Photoshop and GIMP, in fact I used GIMP first and that’s what I learned on. Then I tried Photoshop and it was immediately way more intuitive as to where things are and how the UI works, same with Affinity based on my little experience with it.

Older FOSS stuff tends to struggle quite a bit with UX, which makes sense cause it’s mostly programmers and not UI designers working on it.

Oh for sure, I’m never paying Adobe anything. More just speaking on some frustration that GIMP seems to be sitting in the exact same location it has been for so long.

I get where you’re coming from, but GIMP honestly just kinda sucks from a UX perspective nowadays. The core of the app seems to be fine, but it’s just not particularly intuitive to use compared to the commercial offerings.

Maybe that’ll change one day, but it really does feel like the interface has been the same for the past 15 years at least.

I’d generally agree, the industry itself seems to be high risk for exploitation because of the very nature of it.

Realistically though this isn’t going to help that much, most AI generated content that tries to look real ends up quite uncanny. So this is probably more likely to cannibalise some of the least problematic parts of the industry like digital art.

Right after I upgrade my omada setup…

I get why people are having trouble defending them but it’s really not cool that Mojang is pushing to enforce their own personal requirements on self-hosted servers. It’s one thing if it was an official server or hosted on realms or something, but this is just a bit too far in my opinion.

And given the recent pivots by tech companies in the US there’s very little reason to think this same set of rules couldn’t be applied to groups like trans people in the future.

It’s better to push back on this sort of stuff early, instead of waiting for it to personally impact you once it’s already built up momentum.

I used to see images like this explaining what an astigmatism was and just thought “well your windshield can cause this too so that’s probably what I’m seeing”

I genuinely don’t know why this was the conclusion I came to. Got an Rx for glasses a few years ago now and like most of my family I have a mild astigmatism.
