Jobs had won complete cultural dominance of desktop pcs with the iMac 27". If you saw a desktop on a tv show for the past 20 years it was an iMac 27". Tim saw they could cancel it and go against their policy of minimal cords and sell separate Mac minis and Mac Studio displays.
The difference is with the app. With the Apple Remote it works fine, but in the app it only works with HDMI magic (I'm sure some tv's allow you to use the HDMI magic with no sound bar / receiver)
I got one recently for a room that was already wired with speakers, and man the ability to control the volume on Apple TV remote app on your phone is amazing. For whatever reason none of my other Apple TV's will allow that (could be the tv's fault, but obviously somewhere along the line they at least expect a speaker bar). I'm sure it's a fault of the HDMI spec somewhere that you can't easily change the volume on the tv itself but you can on downstream devices.
Just wait till these robot maximalists figure out that a pile of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen is much cheaper than robots made out of steel and carbon fiber.
Seems like the obvious solution to this, is if you collect driving data on public highways, the data has to be made available to the public. If you collect the data on private highways you are free to keep it private. If you don't intend to use it in a product on public highways it can remain private.
Doesn't even seem that crazy when you consider the government is already licensing them to be able to use their private data anyway. Biggest issue is someone didn't set it up this way from the start.
The ease and seemingly no-cost nature of small changes in software development, causes scope creep that would have huge costs in construction.
Yes, almost all post 2000 houses will have 20 amps in kitchen but in many areas the other circuits will be 15 amp.
I thought everyone got waivers and the tariffs were just an excuse for raising prices. Was that not what happened in his first administration?
In Astoria, Oregon on Wireless road you can find nearly 100 in a tree. I'm not sure why they are in such high numbers, but you can often see them scavenging fields where seafood waste (shells) are dumped.
I moved back to the south after living out west for 20 years and it is insane the amount of trash dropped by trash workers while they are dumping bins. Part of it is cultural in that trash is literally piled at the street in bins of varying condition vs out west where you know if it doesn't fit in your 90 gal bin it ain't getting picked up by the robot arm.
how many vc investors are in the class of people that get audited by the IRS?
Even Apple Store employees will freely give you the discount. Apple doesn't discount because they aren't a discount brand, but they will give you this discount if you ask.
Wonder if its better than a single color channel hologram though
I don't understand how it isn't fraud. I looked at an ambulance bill for my mom the other day:
$1798 total
-$388 Medicare paid
-$1324 Service adjustment
$86 Amount you owe.
I don't think dumb is sufficient to explain this. It's pretty easy for me to see how someone leaps from this de facto legal system to outright fraud, because the line between them is pretty thin.
Floating gardens using soil are practically impossible
but very cool when they do exist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_island
If tomorrow everyone switches to your proposed vegan diet, where does all the saved power, water and land go towards?
growing cattle keeps the land from turning into concrete. If you actually want to conserve land you want to use as much already deforested as possible for growing crops and then never deforest new land. Slowly you should work onto getting conservation NGOs to integrate it into government protected land.
Seems to me like a fools errand to optimize land use. The optimal use in the Americas for example was likely already there 14,000 years ago before humans arrived in Americas. We obviously can't go back, but we can improve land, but optimal ....
I mean brass can be crazy hard to find, I'd bet if you did a geocaching experiment with brass picking a random spot within shotspotter's accuracy tolerances, you'd find the casing less than 50% of the time. Add in an hourly employee that is in no way motivated to find the casing and you'd prob drop to 10%.
What zwave devices have you been using? I have only used zwave (leviton, ge) and have only had to restart a switch 2-3 times. My biggest gripe with zwave was when home assistant switched the supported plugin.
Over a long enough timespan we will eventually run into it happening in an instant.
We could likely put 80% of cars on rails just as easily
i hope this isn't his last post
Photosynthesis turns carbon and energy into plants immediately.
Longer term the same processes that turned algae and other life forms into oil are still happening and try as we might we aren't going to stop them, but they proceed at what is likely a pace that will take long after humans are extinct to replenish what we have used.
turns out that happens without human intervention
the CO2 doesn't escape the atmosphere, it just doesn't recycle itself in a timeframe you are looking for
At some point unlimited growth would mean the heat death of earth. Remember all used energy no matter how green the source emits heat.
Even stars have limits to their energy. If you don't believe in limits then you aren't accepting physical reality.
What you are asking for is a gabled roof. It's honestly a great design too if it will fit the site.
Many laptops have bad thermals in general under load and often even worse with case closed.
I would have disagreed on heat, but would love to hear what laptops that isn't an issue on.
Yeah pics did make it look like he could use a smaller truck
