  • I disagree with citing Framework for now since they've only existed for 3 years. They are certainly exciting and genuinely seem to be dedicated to long term support and repairability but in my opinion they need to exist longer than that before they can be cited as example of supporting a device for a very long time.

  • Its the New York Times not someones personal blog. If they are publishing sloppy work that is their fault.

  • Given this, you have two choices: either the device shuts down when the voltage drop becomes too large (at, e.g., 40% charge, depending on the specific properties of the battery), or you reduce the maximum current draw of the processor by reducing its clock frequency.

    Yep, Apple took one route and Google took the other. There wasn't a great solution short of replacing users batteries which no company is going to do without being forced.

  • There's MacPorts but Homebrew is by far the most common package manager on MacOS. I wouldn't use Homebrew on Linux personally but it's great on Mac

  • Most AMD cards work just fine in an external GPU enclosure (or in a PCIe slot on the Mac Pro)

  • Not OP but personally touch input feels much better implemented on 11 than any previous Windows

  • I still don't understand the TPM 2.0 requirement. As far as I know there's nothing that Windows 11 does by default that requires TPM, just optional features like BitLocker or Windows Hello

  • I honestly think that FireWire 400 had a better physical design for the connector. It was keyed more dramatically than some of the other connectors people are citing as being both keyed and easy to orient incorrectly. I personally never had issues plugging in FireWire 400 blind.

  • Wasn't pretty much every EV in the US using the CCS connector? The only ones I was aware of that didn't use CCS were Tesla and Nissan.

  • The GM plant near me currently does alternating 6 day and 5 day weeks, I'm not sure if that's the same across all of their plants but there is already precedent within their system for inconsistent week lengths.

  • I love that Suzuki keeps doing these non-traditional venue DDT shows. He seems to have a great sense of humor between these shows and his appearance on Hey! (EW).

  • DDT is no stranger to unusual venues for wrestling. They've done shows at water parks and on a baseball diamond among other places. The championship lineage for their Ironman Heavymetalweight title is a riot to read through as well, highlights include multiple different ladders winning the title, a title change that happened in a dream, and the entire audience of a show winning the title at one point

  • I've never seen that with the Apple website and I use Firefox as my main browser. Was there a specific page that was blocked or something?

  • Thanks ants. Thants

  • It's still needed for some things. I tried to install a Universal Blue based distro with Ventoy and kept getting errors, once I flashed a drive it installed perfectly normally. It's definitely an edge case though.
