- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 3 days ago:Basically it's garbage, Siri effectively just posts your query, sans context, to chatGPT. What comes back is hilariously bad. 
 If they'd integrated it "correctly", it'd probably be as bad as MS. I've played with it a bunch in the store, though my device (intel) doesn't support it at all.
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 3 days ago:I do. They're garbage cleo laptops with a badge and no support. I had one, when it failed they refused to stand behind it at all. 
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 3 days ago:I cooked (literally) 3 'gaming' laptops in 5 years. It seems that even with a riser and constant (monthly) cleaning, heavy GPU use pretty much kills the later gen nvidia chips. 
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 3 days ago:Makes sense, I did. Granted, mine was an old model for $40 that I have now upgraded to 16GB of RAM, but yes. Good plan. 
- Comment on Introverts of our era spend their time on their computers, but what did introverts do before? Like when literacy rates were lower (pre-1950s)? Or before the printing press? 1 week ago:I can't speak to pre-1950s, but before the modern internet (not counting ARPANET), I spent most of my time hiking trails and reading. 
- Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 1 week ago:The most first world of all first world problems has arrived

- Comment on Just in case you thought reviving dead games seemed easy enough, GOG had to hire a private investigator to find an IP holder living off the grid for its preservation program 1 week ago:Linux support trails, mac support is nonexistant. 
- Comment on Just in case you thought reviving dead games seemed easy enough, GOG had to hire a private investigator to find an IP holder living off the grid for its preservation program 1 week ago:After a set period of time, they expire. Life +50 to Life +90 or so, depending on country. 
- Comment on Sony is reportedly planning a Nintendo Switch-style PlayStation 6 portable | VGC 1 month ago:Exactly. Nintendo is sort of known for crazy overcommitment. They really commit to the bit, wherever the wackiness takes them. Two screens? All in. Funky controller for 3 handed people? Ship it. 
 Nunchucks? Say no more.Moving their entire line to a single portable device was probably one of their safer bets. Sony though, everything is very much a slight twiddle of the prior version, and as you say, the side hustles all end up in the bin - sometimes with very little notice. 
- Comment on Sony is reportedly planning a Nintendo Switch-style PlayStation 6 portable | VGC 1 month ago:Yeaaaaa, I'll believe it when I see it. That sounds incredibly unlikely. 
- Comment on Sony is reportedly planning a Nintendo Switch-style PlayStation 6 portable | VGC 1 month ago:So, another Vita? Too little, too late, probably. I love my Vita and my PSPs though, so I might be interested. If it's affordable.
