First off, what universe are you living in where Apple has ever released actual benchmarks? They just throw up a vague chart and say "it's faster!"

Secondly, here you go slugger, a third party review clearly showing how fast it is: https://www.engadget.com/compu...

Weirdo.

For one, he sounds like a redditor when he says "we have thousands of tanks stored somewhere" and assumes that to mean we have a bunch of usable tanks just sitting in a parking lot. No, they're mothballed. They would take a huge amount of work to get back in working condition. They're not something you can just give away. And two, he's taking about the value of drones based on a conflict - the Russo-Ukrainian War - in which tanks have been massively important and massively effective. Two things can be true at the same time, slugger.

I wonder if folks are ever going to stop getting all their beliefs from reddit and finally realize that Microsoft is pushing this feature because they genuinely think it's a good feature. It's not a scam. It's not an attempt to steal all your information. They're not going to push it to people who don't want it. They genuinely, truly, actually believe this is a useful feature that people will want and will go out of their way to get. The entire reason it's restricted to Copilot+ PCs is because they think it's a carrot that will push people to buy new PCs; the idea that they're going to force it on anyone would defeat that entire point.

Obviously folks here are going to hate Jobs, but he wasn't wrong when he said, "The problem with Microsoft is that they have no taste." They never have. They've never known how to make products with features people actually want. This is not new, not unique, not surprising at all. Idk why people are treating it like it's surprising.

And you're probably wrong on that point anyway. I'll bet you every dollar I have that testing shows it's considerably more powerful than the one before. But this is Slashdot, and lord knows that the world's biggest nerds would rather die than fail to take an opportunity to cry about Apple.

The people who buy this are explicitly buying it because they want a very small Mac. Making it bigger is pointless. Buy a different computer if that's what you want.

No, I'm not, but are you employed by Google? Or married to Raymond Hill? Because I'd never attack Google's only open competitor as fiercely as you are unless they were paying my bills. Nor would I defend a massive crybaby manchild who threw an indefensibly childish fit over absolutely nothing.

They're not a shit organization at all, you've just swallowed loads of Google propaganda + you're addicted to drama and shit-slinging. But I guess I can't expect anything more from someone who resorts to ableist slurs in a conversation about fucking web browsers.

Seems far more likely that the people getting paid off are people like you and Raymond Hill, who are inexplicably and unnecessarily participating in a coordinated attack against Mozilla over the most unfathomably minor misunderstanding. It was a mistake, it's already been resolved, this amount of hateful propaganda is completely unnecessary. It's like the open-source community just hates when there isn't infighting. There always HAS to be drama, there HAS to be a giant conspiracy, and if there isn't one then you'll gladly make one up. Pathetic.

Yes, I absolutely did call him a manchild, because he indisputably is. This was an incredibly minor misunderstanding that was resolved within a couple days and he's throwing a crybaby fit about it...because he's a manchild. That's the definition of a manchild. Just because he made a good ad blocker doesn't mean he's not a manchild.

And you can call me a shill when you stop spamming Chrome propaganda. How's that Google boot taste? I assume their checks are pretty hefty?

Pathetic, shameful comment. Mozilla is the single greatest force we have fighting for the open web, they make an incredibly minor mistake, almost immediately fix it and apologize for it, and you think they deserve this kind of hate? To be bundled in with Google and the ad tech industry? Hell, if anyone here is being paid by Google, it's probably you. Especially given the absolutely unhinged, baseless conspiracy theory you just made up based on A TINY MISTAKE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN FIXED.

Yes, Raymond Hill has contributed a lot to making the internet a better place to browse. But uBlock is far from the only ad blocker, and as far as I can tell, the others are not being developed by manchildren who flip out and piss their pants over an incredibly minor misunderstanding. Mozilla is not your enemy, nor is it Raymond Hill's enemy, and to suggest otherwise tells me neither of you are serious people who have our best interests at heart.

For what it's worth, I had Copilot disabled and uninstalled prior to the update and it remains uninstalled after the update.

It is optional, it's literally in the second sentence of the post. You have to be insane enough to subscribe to Copilot Pro to get this stuff.

Are you talking about seeing movies in theaters or at home? If it's the latter, I'd recommend entirely disabling HDR on your TV. I spent a few days tweaking TV settings to try to make these scenes watchable and that was the only change that made a significant difference. I'm not an expert at all on this topic, but my best guess is that most TV panels actually aren't good enough to properly do HDR, so they end up looking super dark with it enabled.

Theaters need a wake up call. If you want me to see a movie in a movie theater, that theater needs to be a better experience than my own living room. Otherwise, I'm just going to wait until I can stream it. I'm not in such a hurry to see any of these movies that I'm willing to drive 20 minutes to a shitty strip mall to sit in a dirty room with uncomfortable chairs and loud idiots.

I have the unfortunate privilege of being a Windows sysadmin. WSUS is awful. God fucking awful. I hate it with every fiber of my being. I have concrete plans to piss on its grave the moment it finally dies. The idea that someone would be disappointed to hear it's being deprecated is something that my brain is simply not capable of understanding. Neither can I understand the perspective of someone who thinks Intune is "more complicated" than WSUS and "takes longer to set up." Intune is a Microsoft product, so I'd never call it good, but I'd also never call it complicated or time consuming. It's dead simple to manage updates through Intune and requires basically zero effort compared to managing WSUS. I think these are just bad sysadmins who are terrified of change, any change.
