Well I don't think Cocaine Snail would have been a blockbuster

There's a whole movie about a snail that's super fast (Turbo). An adult version of that isn't so far fetched.

I grew up with that movie. It was weird

Especially if the 640k are "in your hand" and the rest is "in the cloud"

Honestly of the big companies sometimes I feel like Apple is the worse offender in i18n questions

Sure they have most of their stuff translated but some rough edges make me feel they do the bare minimum:

- Their ISO keyboard sucks. Sure their overall quality makes it good but of the major brands their Enter key is the most flimsy attempt at it

- Some long standing bugs https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250299816?sortBy=rank (which I had the impressions they were made worse in localized version or at least if you used a non American date format)

- General weirdness with translation missing sometimes

I remember switching to English, decades ago, after running into misaligned/cut-off localized text in the UI. I'm still using English to this day.

And from what I've seen, Apple's always supported fewer languages and input methods than Google/Microsoft, like they simply cant be bothered.

Yes

Oversimplified might be a better description but there needs to be a rule even dumb people can use

So the rule is: discard whatever comes first

If you expect every home distiller to understand the nuances of this you're going to end up with a lot of "accidents"

They're using the analogy of mining for gold. the cost of a shovel/pitchfork goes up when the price of gold goes down - which is a double whammy

you didn't answer the question. A shovel in this case is the equipment + energy needed to mine (GPU's etc.)

Which is pretty much obvious to anyone who has heard of bitcoin in the year of our lord 2026

Especially since the "sell shovels during a gold rush" has been used to apply to nVidia

But the person upstream hasn’t. It’s not obvious to them. Which is why a good answer has to include the detail.

I think the main problem is that you lose the surface anodization and might end up with a more frail surface there (surface, the structural integrity is going to suffer but not much I guess)

I'm surprised RHEL is requiring AVX2 models, they usually had some slack in processor requirements (though I'm sure not as big as Debian)

They analysed the compatibility impact, see https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2024/01/02/exploring-...

"We have two versions of Outlook and none of them are working"

There are four ̶s̶i̶x̶ ̶(s̶e̶v̶e̶n̶ five counting the web version) maintained Outlook variants on Windows 11, last I checked and I have issues with each one. Search especially, but then that has remained an unsolved problem for 30 years. I am sure "AI" will finally solve this.

Edit: Have checked and found that two I thought were still maintained (16 and 19) were EOLd in October.

It would be ironic if Xorg launched a twitter competitor using a custom update protocol (an X extension) over the network and TCL

knowing how xorg currently operates (it doesn't, it has a successor) it'd be a wayland protocol negotiated over dbus and mainly opposed by the GNOME people
