They aren’t even disposable, so it’s crazy to me how they can be sold as such.

As a happy Comcast customer, my old ISP still only sells plans up to 100 Mbps and it routes all traffic through a city that’s over 200 miles away.

No, because United employees didn’t beat the passenger up, the police did. That’s not even remotely close to the worst thing that cops have gotten away with.

As an aside, I personally don’t understand why people would choose Kroger over Walmart

You are mixing up the different values.

“Meanwhile, scattered reports of **MS Flight Sim 2020’**s bandwidth consumption point toward a more conservative ~100 Mb/s in densely populated photogrammetry areas, such as major cities. Usage in lighter areas could dip as low as 10 Mb/s, though the official Microsoft bandwidth recommendation for that game was 50 Mb/s.”

Flight Sim 2020 had a higher install size and lower bandwidth. Flight Sim 2024 has a lower install size and higher bandwidth requirement. Even if the sustained load isn’t using the maximum bandwidth, it still means that 2024 will use a significant amount of bandwidth such that it may affect customers with data caps.

You’re assuming the law matters when a company can hire a team of lawyers and a solo dev can’t

That’s really good to know. I still think my statement stands true if you exclude cheese and wine, and it’s pretty easy to find vegetarian options for many common desserts.

We’d run out of companies though

I don’t see Amazon as a monopoly, but as far as Apple goes, they currently hold the majority of phone sales in the US. A big reason for that is that they have a history of artificially preventing you from using certain device features with non-Apple products or services. iMessage is a good example as it took an order from China for Apple to add the RCS messaging standard that Android phones have had for years. Another example is that, while music apps on Android can use Google Assistant features, only Apple Music can utilize Siri features on iOS.

I mean, that’s a decision for the managers or execs at Microsoft, not for me. They released the product with a ton of issues, not us.

Plus, plenty of users are sticking to Windows 10 because it’s the better OS for them, whereas Windows 11 has fixed so many long-term issues and introduced enough useful QoL features that make it far better than 10 for me. I think the market share difference compared to previous Windows versions speaks volumes on how badly Microsoft screwed up.

As a vegetarian in the US, restaurants here have gotten way better about dietary restrictions over the years. Yes, some places still do mislead, but the vast majority usually ask you and the kitchen about ingredients and accommodate accordingly.

As far as the performance issues go, I’ve experienced a lot of those when I first upgraded from 10 to 11. After reinstalling though, the performance has been amazing.

I hate all of the constant advertising of MS products and services, especially in the case of Edge, because so many of those products are genuinely amazing, and people won’t give them a chance because it’s shoved down their throats.

Any sources for further reading/watching?

The fact that an insane number of sites use it makes it a big deal. If it dies, there will be plenty of dead links

There are many things I like about F-Droid, but its UI is awful for a lay person

Win 11 has as many wins as blunders

I doubt that the Switch 2 needs emulation as it’s very likely to be the successor to the Tegra X1

I didn’t know that Secret Service was mandatory for former US Presidents.

Lobbying is a good concept corrupted by greed, as are many things in the US.

OpenAI the non-profit owned OpenAI the company since the company was created. The non-profit is simply reducing its stake/share of the company and giving it to investors and/or Altman
