Neat. Like the other poster said I also have an old surface 4 I think that could really use a new life.

“Upon picking it up, you can feel the metal chassis has a surprising amount of weight to it.”

A surprising amount of weight is exactly what I do not want to feel when picking up a micro laptop.

That being said, it’s just a little under the weight of the new 12“ surface pro. Pretty much any bag I have could easily fit a 12" laptop but I imagine it would be hard to get Linux to work well with the surface - especially the touch screen. Not to mention a pretty big price difference.

Either way, it’s nice to see more options for small laptops! Maybe in a few years someone will start making small phones again.

I’d also have a yellow line coming from my butt in this scenario.

As someone likely to be profiled by cops, I like the concept of objectivity with automated patrolling, but this comes at such an overbearing scalability and privacy violation that it’s still the greater evil. I just hope automated driving becomes the norm soon enough to obviate the need for this. That comes at a cost too, but the lives saved from that will be on the order of what some vaccines have accomplished and the efficiency with regards to time and energy all add up to make that a worthwhile change in my book.

I see this kind of stuff everywhere and it really sells too. I don’t mind it if the creative commons agreements are being respected, but I have a feeling that in many cases people’s work is being abused.

Mix an increasingly affordable and easy implementation of nanny-state technology to a shift towards tyrannical governance, and things will likely start getting ugly fast.

Every time I walk into someone’s home and I see a rounded couch corner I do a little chuckle. Sometimes they’ll ask what I’m laughing at. “I’m sorry, it’s just, I didn’t know you were such an idiot”

Cool toilet bro.

You are talking about that blue stripe?

That far out from the transition I think thatust be a filament coloring error.

Mix this with a haptic glove and that would be pretty neat.

They don’t have to participate, but it’s a good article to raise awareness for your non tech oriented friends and family.

This is a massive problem, but at the very least it’s happening in an era of very cheap data storage.

Fuck you buddy, I’m barely getting by with modern medicine, you just ended me.

Isn’t it because it’s illegal for us to hit them?

If you are looking for something with less of a learning curve jump from Tinker to free cad, I’d suggest Matter control as a nice free intermediate level workspace.

Ngl, my HD is full of ghibli-ized contraband of my dog looking cute AF

Stripped down? The Y is a stripped down X and it’s an overpriced piece of junk. Long Awaited? Get fucked. I’m long awaiting this company burning to the ground and it’s CEO imprisoned.

Still about 100 picoseconds too slow for my taste.

Admittedly this does sound bad but also keep in mind Forbes does have a very biased axe to grind here as well. “In June 2024, Forbes sent a cease-and-desist letter to Perplexity, accusing it of infringing copyright, to which the Perplexity responded saying the claims were meritless and that factual information is not protected by copyright law.”

Peeked my interest.

Ok, you’ve peaked my interest and I would like to hear the album “Drums & Octobass” by Keiji Haino & Guro Moe

https://conradsound.bandcamp.com/album/drums-octobass

I’ll try it in my car later and on my home system with a decent sub

I really hope that “flower which is orange and very strong-willed” lives up to my very high expectations

Edit: ok, I listened to this turned up nice and loud and it’s quite amazing but not at all in the way I expected. I know what album I am gifting my family and coworkers with this Christmas.

State moto: “Periculosus et stultus”
