Hey man, math is hard!
I recently changed ISPs and they provided me with a TP-Link router. It's actually pretty nice, good range and reliable, although it's infuriating that management capabilities all have to be done a phone app... that you have to create a cloud account for. There is a web interface but it's very basic. I think I'm going to have to buy a replacement but the landscape seems bleak. TP-Link fills the top lists, and I don't want a "mesh pod," thank you very much...
When you build your datacenter on a volcano it gives a new meaning to the term "disaster recovery."
What he allegedly did was very wrong. I'd never condone such behavior. His biggest mistake, however, was getting caught. Come on, it would be so easy to make it look like an innocent mistake...
Wow they didn't have a physical button for the hazard lights? Crazy. Just what you need to do during an emergency, fiddle around on a touchscreen...
It may be illegal to rip them, but it's not illegal to copy them. Copying a disc doesn't require "descrambling" the content. Make a copy before it's too late! Dual-layer DVDs are still pretty cheap.
Without a change in rate? That graph is clearly accelerating.
It mean regurgitating text that looks like reasoning but is actually barely coherent gibberish... just like how real humans think!
What other use is there for tax revenues than to get more tax revenues?
Panic? They're all too rich in Denmark to bother with moving small pieces of paper around. This is akin to international wealth signaling.
"Look at us, we're all so well-sorted-out that we don't need mail anymore! Keep your dirty pieces of paper out of our country!"
If they drop off the "postal network" then I guess it would just get returned as undeliverable, same as if I tried to mail a letter to Haiti or Sudan.
It's will be pretty funny, though, when I can send a letter to Burundi but not Denmark.
Text-to-speech is improving, but really... I guess they think if they do it enough people will just accept it. Weird AI dubbing with incongruous and inconsistent intonation, occasional bad pronunciation, but it costs almost nothing? Sure, why not.
I know a guy who actually listens to entire computer-narrated books on Google Books, and no he's not blind. So I guess people can actually learn to listen to stuff like that...
Really, do you store them outside? I have lots of paperbacks from the 90s and early 2000s that are yellowed but perfectly readable.
A microSD card and headphone jack? Hey wouldn't that be something... But it seems like consumers actually enjoy having useful features removed. I's a sort of flex. I think they'd actually want a smaller battery and maybe some hooked barbs on the sides, so that it draws blood whenever you take it out of your pocket. They should put that on the roadmap.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo.
