We don't pin everything on Trump, just the specific things that Trump wants us to pin on him. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

He was proud of reducing staff at the NWS. This is his result his legacy.

Also I suspect you're part of his legacy too. I blame him for you since he has cut funding for Mental Health research as well as Education. I would call you retarded, but really it's not your fault for being so stupid. I'm blaming that on Trump. Or do you want to own this one yourself?

The government should clearly define what this is. Polymarket should fall inline with Travel Insurance policies. Either this was an invasion (act of war) or it wasn't. You can't pick and choose in order to pocket the cash.

Travel insurance companies are saying this was an act of war.
The Orange Moron in Chief is saying the USA runs the country after a military action if that isn't an invasion I don't know what is. The us took military action and now has control.

Intel finds new market in which to underperform against AMD. Seriously the iGPU from intel is rubbish compared to the GPU in Ryzen APUs processors.

Laptops are typically a more expensive solution and less permanent. This isn't replacing laptops as much as it is replacing dumb terminals. If anything I think the biggest competitor to these are those computers that mount on the VESA bracket behind the monitor.

These are targetted at business users. They have nothing to do with their ink business, and HP's enterprise business division is actually quite competent.

*YOU* don't have this choice. It'll be made for your by your employer's CTO.

Not quite. The problem is the list of things in the law, only *some* of them have been shown to be addictive. They will absolutely lose in court if the law is written to include them all in a single clause. It's legislative incompetence.

He have that. The problem here is in the wording of the law and the argument they are making. Some of the things listed have shown to be addictive (algorithmic feeds, and likes for example). Some of the things have not (push notifications, and infinite scrolling for example). The problem is if the law lists them all in the same sentence then it will be ruled in favour of the tech companies.

It's a present to big tech in the form of legislative incompetence.

This. I think most of Slashdotters are too much stuck in their echo chamber that they don't seem to understand that most users just don't give a shit, and use whatever OS comes on their machine.

Including me. I could install Linux on my laptop, I have no application that require Windows on it, but I just couldn't be fucked. My laptop Windows 11 works just fine. My desktop (Arch linux) works just fine since I don't play games online and therefore aren't limited with anitcheat software.

People just don't fucking care and Windows will persist while it remains the most popular pre-bundled OS with laptops/PCs.

18 buttons is pretty standard for most cars on a steering wheel these days. And by standard I mean so standard that some buttons don't even do anything. (The top/bottom left button on the left of my steering wheel has no function, and neither does the top right button on the right of mine).

A typical car needs 5 buttons for cruise control. Engage/disengage, faster, slower, bigger gap, smaller gap, lanekeeping engaged/disengaged, speed limit/speed targetting, and resume (though some cars combine resume with the faster button). Out of the 18 buttons I have the entire left of the steering wheel is just cruise control.

And the right is mostly radio. Honestly I typically use about 4-5 buttons normally out of the 18 (15 functional). It's not remotely information overload.

If you need to turn on the heat in winter or the AC in the summer then your car fucking sucks. Climate control is ludicrously easy to get right and trivially cheap to implement. I haven't adjusted that setting in my car in years, not parked, not while driving.

Yeah funny story, but VW's resale values are no different to Toyota's. The 5-year resale value for both vehicles sits in the 50-60%. Toyota gets to edge out due to a peculiarity in that they have fuck all EVs. ICE cars between brands have virtually identical resale values. EVs are still lagging, so the car company which infamously ignored EVs of course has a win there.

That said Toytoa Mirai may have the worst resale value of any car in history, even worse than Swasticars Model 3 now given people are actively suing the company to take them back due to the failure of hydrogen as a consumer mobility fuel.

Yes and no. The buttons that are relegated to the singular line in VW cars are buttons that you don't normally need to interact with. Things like climate control (it's 2025 guys, if your car can't maintain a perfect temperature in all weather conditions automatically then you bought a shit car, I haven't touched a climate control in my car in 2 years now, summer or winter, fogged windscreen or not).

VW got exceptional flack for their design because their steering wheel "buttons" were capacitive touch sensors. They actually had all the right buttons in all the right places for look free control of everything, but they lacked tactile.
The exception was the windows. They had two switches for opening and closing windows and a touch selector for "front or back" which made it impossible to open or close a window without physically looking down. They fixed that too now going back to 4 buttons.

Only partially agree. While some cars went too far, the "function" is not your ability to play with something, but rather your ability to not need to. This comes up in climate control over and over again. Climate control is one thing you should be able to set once before starting to drive. If you ever need to touch it on the road, the designer fucked up.

I feel like at this point made up stories are preferable to an endless string of dupes.

Where I live the receptionist can actually renew your prescriptions. Key word being "renew". There's limits to what they are allowed to renew (just like in this AI), there's also the ability for a doctor to flag a specific one off prescription (not allowed to be renewed without doctor's approval), and it significantly reduces the clinical workload of GPs who often are seen by people just for the purposes of renewing prescriptions.

For many many drugs prescribed once the risk of renewal is very low. And in all cases a GP is required for the initial prescription anyway.
