If Microsoft really wants people to switch to Windows 11 they need to retain many of the already few remaining customization options from Windows 10. Trackpad gesture support is worse, the only useful button in the new right click menu is the show more one which brings back the old menu but requires an extra click, and the file explore somehow got even more buggy. I hate every time I need to interact with a computer using Windows 11.

Luckily there's been an initiative within my company recently to support Linux, so I'm hoping that all the network related issues are fully worked out before Windows 11 is forced on us so I can just jump ship to Ubuntu.

Surprisingly asking about Jack Ma's resignation didn't stop it, it mentioned that he was allegedly forced to step down for political reasons. When I probed further on what these were it didn't error but did randomly switch to Chinese at one point in the answer. image

It's very verbose compared to any other AI I've used. Not necessarily all great but there's some good parts in the responses. I'm more curious how it was trained behind the great firewall.

Unfortunately the next administration will likely agree with the ISPs on this. To an extent T-Mobile and Verizon 5G home internet has genuinely shaken up the industry. As long as low latency isn't a requirement of yours they're quite good. For me they offer higher upload speeds than my local ISP monopoly with similar download speeds.

More than likely he'd just go the direction of Russia/Putin and run behind a candidate he endorses but then effectively take control after the puppet candidate wins.

FT asking $75/mo for digital access is insane. I'm happy to pay for quality journalism but that's simply out of reach for most Americans. I'd love to know how their management determined this was an appropriate price.

Back when the COVID vaccine was new it was reasonably common to hear my body my choice in this context

The fun part is that this the foundation "Idiocracy" built its world on.

With a laptop and phone which both can use it my backpack while travelling is so much lighter and less bulky. For me it absolutely was a game changer, I just don't like that I need to carry a USB a to C adapter for all the legacy USB A ports.

Not sure who would buy it full price but in most of the apps if you're not picky there's always some amount of deals to get a meal under $5. I only go occasionally as the deals aren't as good as they used to be across the board and the quality is universally terrible. Taco Bell is also its own unique thing which no other Mexican restaurant will get you so occasionally it just sounds good.

That being said in my area you can go to nearly any proper restaurant and get carry-out under $15 with Texas sized portions. As someone with an unhealthy work/life balance particularly in the evenings, this or bulk curry is how I usually eat dinner.

At least he won the popular vote, so it's well and truly want the majority (who cared to vote) wanted this time. It would be much more frustrating if he lost the popular vote like in 2016, where the minority in votes had control of house, senate and executive branches. This time it's what people wanted, and people somehow voted for fascism instead of the status quo.

Yep, and thankfully the EU has seen the way the US is going and started to react appropriately.
