No I’m not, I am providing this data point because it’s the most recent I have. Every time I have to use windows, everything is more difficult.
The one good thing I can say about it is that it handles gpu driver crashes more gracefully in my experience. That’s about it.
The only reason most windows users put up with it is that most don’t even know of alternatives. Maybe they know of mac.
I set up a stupid simple smb server on a raspberry pi.
My other linux devices could see and use it out of the box. iOS could see and use it out of the box. tvOS could see and use it out of the box. I am willing to bet actual money that android would be able to see and use it out of the box.
Windows couldn’t. Due to some ass policy I had to google for hours and try out 3 different solutions, all of them requiring registry edits, to make it work. Because for “security” MS disallows connecting to a smb server if, essentially, the smb server isn’t hosted on windows (that was the gist of it IIRC).
Yes, using windows is harder than using linux. Way harder.
Market demand for Tesla EVs in Europe could be building a bottom after it suffered only a 28% drop in May
ONLY A 28% DROP! These fuckers will spin anything. Since fucking when is 28% an “only” worthy percentage?
No, that’s what good programmers say (measure first, then optimize). Bad programmers use it to mean it’s perfectly fine to prematurely pessimize code because they can’t be bothered to spend 10 minutes to come up with something that isn’t O(n^2) because their set is only 5 elements long so it’s “not a big deal” and “it’s fine” even though the set will be hundreds or thousands of elements long under real load.
It would be almost funny if it didn’t happen every single time.
I do, mostly. Believe it or not, we do live in a society. Taxes and fees are integral to the well-being of the place you live in, from the small (apartment building, street, beighborhood) to the medium (city, commune) to the big (region, country).
Public services need to be funded, and we fund them with taxes. I like paying taxes. What I hate is when those taxes get misused. What I hate is the CEO of my company, who last year made 300x what I made (and I make well above average salary) paying half the amount pf taxes I pay (percentage wise) because my money comes from salary and his comes from capital gains. What I hate is seeing homeless people around because you could build homes and give them to the homeless if the rich fucks were taxes properly.
Instead of being angry at the legislature forcing corporations to have some modicum of decency, you should be angry at corporations that don’t provide that by default and they act petty about it by degrading service.
Apple has dozens of billions of dollars ready to go implement anything at any given time, if they wanted to allow their services to work well in the EU with the new regulations they could (might take some time). But they won’t. Be angry at apple, not the DMA.
Yep, snake oil salesmen they used to be called
Ask the machine to generate a script to ask the machine to generate a list of 100 prompts and query the machine with each prompt over the course of an 8 hour workday
Maybe he knew and the answers on the document were partially wrong
That’s because LLMs really like to output bullet point lists
This certainly sucks hard. A possible path forward could be to simply discontinue papers. Only grade verbal exams and written exams started and completed in class. Open book, but prohibit usage of non-vetted electronic devices
And you’re suggesting what, that msft tests the waters to risk a fine of potentially 25 billions (10% of 2024 revenue) rather than letting EU users uninstall stuff. I mean I’d love for them to try and get smacked by a huge fine, but they’re not that stupid. And the fact that they have no intention of testing the waters means that the DMA is working. The goal of the DMA is not fining corporations, it’s to force them to behave. And it’s working.
No, I don’t think we are on the same page
Seriously. Correct title is “EU gives EU users more control”
I don’t think you understand the fact that the DMA allows fines of up to 20% of a company’s global total turnover for repeated infractions.
Global, as in worldwide. Turnover, as in not profits, but revenue.
For chronic cases, non monetary fines can be applied, including divestiture of parts of the corporation operating in the european union.
No, microsoft can’t just absorb the fines, because the DMA was formulated from the beginning with the specific goal of making it impossible to just absorb the fines.
I only had to use teams like, three times in my life (so far, hoping to keep the streak going). Two out of three I used firefox on linux (third one was from mobile) and the experience, I have to begrudgingly admit, was perfectly fine. I would find it absolutely hilarious if teams works better from firefox on linux rather than chrome (edge is chrome) on windows.
Ghosting entirely depends on the wiring of the keyboard pcb. Key rollover can depend on the wiring of the keyboard pcb, but usually is limited by the usb HID protocol.
Generally speaking, usb can carry up to 6 keys of information in a single packet (I don’t remember off the top of my head if modifiers are included). It is possible to use extended packets and encode more info (and thus allow for more than 6 keys rollover) but it requires negotiation with the os so most vendors don’t bother as generally you don’t need to be able to press more than 6 keys at the same time for most applications.
And it’s legal to have 24h shifts? Or 16h of overtime in a day?
Edit to add: I don’t know how it works in california, but where I’m from on-call duty is not the same as overtime, and you can’t mix the two. And there are limits to shift time (including on-call) + overtime. So even if it was legal to have 8h shifts and 16h of on-call duty (it isn’t) it wouldn’t be classified as overtime
Your definition of full time is incorrect. Full time is 40h/week, at 52 weeks per year that’s 2080 hours per year. 3000 hours of overtime puts the total at 5080, or 19.5 hours per day.
That’s by working 5 days a week, every week, no vacation nor PTO nor sickness.
It is fraud
Nope, completely wrong assumptions on your part
