We are living out the TV show. Everything in that show is coming true (if it wasn't already).

If you haven't seen it, it is very entertaining, and now almost seemingly prophetic.

The Neo is the Apple laptop here.

Dells offering is branded XPS. It sounds like you conflated the two.

So the Neo definitely has access to Apple parts - and its been confirmed to use the same SoC that was previously just used by the iPhone line of products.

1. Factory reset restores default settings - it does NOT roll back system updates.

2. A Roku device not connected to the internet is going to be lacking its core functionality. If your goal is to use it as a dumb display, or to solely just a local media library (eg Jellyfin), then maybe, but 99% of all Roku users want to do more than that.

So why go to the cinema to see that? I will just wait until it comes on streaming - their fuckery with season 3 has already lost my interest, so Im not going out of my way to see this.

Probably a Linux nerd (on /.? The hell you say) that carried the xST vs xDT timezone markers before the brain caught up that "Standard" and "Saving" are both "S"

> next will be Jedi training school full of pointless teen angst.

Wasn't that "The Acolyte"?

I watched The Mandalorian season 1 and enjoyed it.

I watched The Mandalorian season 2 and ... yeah, it was good but I was mildly disappointed in the whole "you should know these characters from other Star Wars media, otherwise they are mildly uninteresting side characters that everyone else is raving about for some reason" thing.

Then .... The Mandalorian season 3 - holy fuck. You had to actually watch an entirely different season of something else first in order to pick this one up, otherwise the ending to season 2 and the start of season 3 do not join up at all. Im out. Im not bouncing between different things just to maintain a hope in hell of understanding whats going on.

Its both.

As you say, previous films had some degree of continuity.

But with Daniel Craigs Bond, we see him earn the 007 designation in the first film, so that makes his Bond a reboot and self contained.

Oh seriously?

I use both Slack and Teams day to day (we use Slack internally, client uses Teams, so we are on both as a result).

Slack we never have any issues with, and can find information from previous conversations easily.

Teams? Fuck teams. Fuck it and then fuck it some more. Its slow, clunky, constantly has issues, very hard to find information unless you still have the chat open somewhere, and chats are spread all over the place (chats, teams, channels...). Teams also requires you to have access to the workspaces OneDrive and SharePoint as well if you want to share files, so if you dont have access to those things then ... you are limited to text only.

Its video call system is sorely limited, and even doing things like zooming in to the presenters shared screen is clunky and shit.

Teams is the worst collaboration system I have ever used, so dont try making out that its better than Slack or Zoom. It is by far the worst of the three.

Honestly outside of people who do heavy 3d rendering, even a computer you use for your job just doesn't need to be that powerful.

As a programmer who sits at a screen for 8 hours a day, it took a lot of convincing for me to even give up my 10 year old workstation because it was pretty decent when it was purchased and as long as it had decent ram (it had 32GB) I was perfectly fine working on it. Having to reinstall was more of a headache that the benefit of getting a new system.

Hell my home/play machine is SIGNIFICANTLY more powerful than my work one.

I view my home computer like a Corvette and my work machine like a Corolla. At home I want fast - at work I just want dependable.

> Heh, I've never heard that term before.

It's an acronym for "jack of all trades."

Democracy is for retards.

Government did this. All of this. Government regulated so much that only a rare few can afford to compete.

This is late stage statism. Retard voters are to blame.

Like you.

Given the Apple/Mac history with NeXT, I think the name he chose is more fitting.

Ebiikes are a legal workaround loophole for motorcycles.

When I got my first computer it was a Commodore, and I had a ton of those magazines. Eventually my disk drive broke, so if I wanted to play one of those little games or things they had, I literally had to type the whole program in each time.

I would leave the computer powered on as long as possible so that the RAM didn't clear :).
