And on top of that they are generally much more expensive than American houses to begin with.

That very much depends on the area and the house itself.

This makes me wonder so hard why people don’t switch to Mastodon instead. Like… You have literally seen this before! Why are you doing it again?

it still has a long way to go before it starts replacing LCDs and OLEDs.

I really don’t think it’s even trying to fill the same niche. No eReader is attempting to sell you Netflix. It’s just an entirely different device.

But temperature is not just the speed of a molecule right?

It pretty much is.

Like a molecule moving very fast through space can still be at a very low temperature, right?

That very much depends on the relative speed of the molecule and you. If you’re not moving in relation to the molecule, a collision between you and it won’t do much. Now try being hit by it (or a bunch of them) at high or even relativistic speeds. The area of you that’s hit will surely become pretty hot then.

Like, have you seen footage of asteroid impacts? Have you seen shooting stars? Those are hot. Like, non-figuratively.

Well, just don’t fucking go there, then?

Right now we’re releasing Windows 10, and because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we’re all still working on Windows 10.

It’s all about Windows as a service

Windows isn’t dead, but the idea of version numbers could be

Recent comments at Ignite about Windows 10 are reflective of the way Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations and updates in an ongoing manner, with continuous value for our consumer and business customers

That’s true.

It also explains nothing about that picture.

I love the positivity, but I don’t get it. Why is the union of “act + do your best” and “imagine a better future” the question “why are you here”? Same for the other overlapping areas.

The person I replied to was talking about learning the basics of a language… This isn’t about searching for something specific, this is about reading the very basic introduction to a language before trying to Google your way through it. Avoiding the basic documentation is always a bad idea. Replacing it with the LLMed version of the original documentation probably even more so.

What about just reading the documentation?

Not to be overly pedantic, but changing the order of things in the second part of the sentence is really throwing me off by suggesting that donuts are fermented and that there’s a beer with fried dough as an ingredient somewhere.

You did not make fun of my typo? Believe it or not, also ban.

Obviously. Stupid sexy Finns.

You think it’s the worst… And then there are those who want to ramp it up to 11.

As somebody not from the US of A… What is a “salt life decal” and who would or wouldn’t have one?

In the end, I got an S23 which receives (presumably) four years of major revision support plus another two years of security patches, which is still much more than Sony is willing to promise.

I had an Xperia Z, which I was supposed to be able to patch with custom roms. Too bad that while that generally worked, Sony locked the camera to its own software which then fell back to a much inferior mode, meaning you had to decide between updates or shitty pictures, which was a deal breaker for me and had me update to an S10e back then.

The Xperia 5 is a skinny 6.1" & many consider it to be a small phone option in 2024.

I know. It’s still too big. I was this close to switching to apple just for their iPhone mini range, but that got discontinued as well. My S23 is something like 6 or 6.1 as well. It’s only usable because Samsung has a better one handed mode than default android or Apple.

Was going to get a Sony. Then I saw their update roadmap… 2 years of major updates and another one for security patches, that was it. Noped out because of that. I’d like a headphone jack and an sd card slot, but I’d like even more to keep such an expensive device for more than three years.

Also, their phones are too big, but that’s an issue for every single manufacturer.
