It's better than a cardboard box or tent.

They are fine with it. Prison cells suck because you have a roommate named Bubba and are stuck there.

Doubt the schools would love them. Schools love the Google ecosystem and particularly how they can be an organization that micromanages what the students can do all while having a supremely disposable device. The price and touchscreens are nice and all, but it's really about the Google infrastructure. It's also a contributor to why a lot of businesses like Windows, the effort invested in *not* letting the user be able to do what they want at the whim of some designated third party.

Besides, the Chromebooks are generally about half even that price. Greatly helpful when there's a high chance that a device will get destroyed within a couple of years.

I certainly see the appeal as an individual, but schools would require a great deal of effort that I think Apple wouldn't see as worth it.

Is to take our phone and plug it into a usb or thunderbolt hub and have a full desktop OS, 100%, plus mobile apps integrated. Then we unplug and have the phone be 100% mobile. Then we go to work and plug in, going back to a full desktop. Then we go to the bathroom and plug it into a laptop skeleton with integrated hub, getting the desktop. One device to rule them all.

"TSMC and Samsumg have fabs in the USoA"

How long before the tangerine terror fucks that up?

There's no reason to kill ARC because it's only taking sales Nvidia didn't want.

It also depended on low speed interfaces to processors. You used to be able to accelerate computers which came with a 68k chip by slapping a daughterboard with a faster CPU on it into the CPU socket. That's not practical today.

Side note, anyone want a radius accelerator for Mac SE?

"Biden's effort to reduce student loan debt has ended."

Too bad he didn't fight as hard for that as he did to prevent us from discharging such debts through bankruptcy, that fake fuck.

Samsung still has DEX (Desktiop EXperience) available for its phones. You can either plug it into a computer and use the phone like a program within a computer, or you can connect it to a USBC docking station with HDMI, mouse, and keyboard attached and use the phone in a desktop style.

It works decently well enough. I wouldn't want to use it full time but I've used it occasionally (typically when my home internet is out. My desktop doesn't have a wifi card since I use ethernet, so I can't really pair the phone as a hotspot - I just connect the phone and use DEX).

"Sounds like you are salty because you aren't getting the score you want."

I'm salty because a bunch of clowns who provably don't know how credit scores work are trying to tell me how credit scores work while I have proof that they don't.

"Simply paying off 1-2 credit cards in full every month while keeping your utilization low for ~5 years will get you into the high 700s, which is all you need for any practical purpose."

I did literally all of that and I'm in the low 700s where I don't qualify for first time home buyers assistance, so no and no. Your faith in the system working as advertised is just sad.

There is a concept in computing where a certain spec is good NOW, but will not be good in the future. Rather than replace the entire computer many would rather just increase the power of their current one where its lacking.

Also, by preventing outside ram installation, Apple is free to charge whatever premium they want on more RAM. If they're the only way to increase the ram on a machine then if they decide you're going to pay an extra $500 to go from 8gb to 16gb, then you're stuck.

No. Then it's video games.

It can, which is the genius part (for those who created these algorithms, not for the software itself), piece together complex solutions from various bits it has been trained on. It cannot, however, deal with anything actually new.

The software is shit.
