He renounced his Australian citizenship decades ago.

They're both Darwin. Everything they sell is Apple Silicon. The rest is form factor and marketing.

Others may have a different workflow but I am personally not a fan of laptops. The work laptop sits docked with external screens at both home and the office via a single USB-C cable, keyboard and mouse. Maybe 3 hours a week are spent in a meeting room multitasking urgent stuff while the boss does an, unrelated, presentation.

Would I use it on the journey home if it were a tablet? Absolutely. Jobs didn't approve of keyboards and styluses but they were later added to the iPad.

Apple strategically don't make my next purchase; a foldable iPhone that turns into a MacOS desktop when docked or cast to a TV.

Dear Claude,

Please outline an algorithm that you currently cannot solve that human intuition could implement within a class assignment.

But a browser that runs on Linux but accepts no contributions is no better than any of the closed source Chromium derivatives. No distro is going to bother carrying un-upstreamed patches in their packages. Revisit in a couple of years if the project reaches maturity.

I guess they can still pry Firefox from my cold dead hands. Or pipe-dreams of Servo on Redox OS (rust all the way down).

'an enterprise version of Android', basically this announcement is an SDK for embedded devices.

Well as a citizen of a 5-eyes country that may well be so. But why are government employees using civilian technology?

Tinfoil hat time, I am considering a Moto GrapheneOS capable phone when they become available. Funny world if I would trust a Chinese company (Lenovo) to scrub any Google-isms from my device. :)

Polygon agencies worldwide may consider building their own ROMs or contributing to such existing FOSS projects. And what a perfect cover to be a spy and mainstream GrapheneOS under the cover of "you don't know who is listening"; cold warriors sharing a conversation over a martini both protected from each other!

That's when RAM shortages are supposed to subside.

If you're currently selling netbooks with only 8 Gig, how much RAM will a Gemini iPhone realistically require?

You're using lynx and you rely on a mouse?

tell your grandparents that's what a tricorder looked like two hundred years hence.

Thank goodness for the NoScript plugin in Firefox.

It takes some diligence to selectively whitelist each site; totally worth it.

Jodie Whittaker.

And if you're wondering, yes, James Bond is a time lord; Timothy Dalton as Rassilon.

I never understood Santa.

It's a folktale of a man who climbs down a chimney during the middle of winter.

No one gets burned? That's a miracle worthy of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.

And yet Tesla's owner has been in China this week as part of a US presidential visit.

This sends a message that they want China to buy American vehicles but that it's one way traffic.

I can't recall a British western.

Ray Winstone, John Hurt and Emily Watson starred in the Australian film, The Proposition. does that count?

The best ones are filmed in Spain by Italian directors.
