How do you think people would find new products without advertising?

I'm young enough for this 256Kb connection to be in times where the norm was 10Mbps+, so trust me, it was comparable to using dialup when DSL was widespread.

Tell me more about the startup.

>Same goes for movies, movies are always co-watched, we sit through the movie, pause and discuss what is going on, I'll ask about why people are doing certain things, what emotions different characters are having in a scene, and so forth.

Christ, at least let the kid think about it on his own and ask questions later! Don't know about your kid, but I don't know ANY person, at any age, that would not feel like they're enduring an insufferable school class with behaviour like this.

...lots of unstructured play I surely did have with my slow as molasses bloated Pentium 4 machine with XP and no internet in my childhood. Developed a LOT of patience when downloading stuff from the Net (on 256Kbps, no less!) on one PC and moving it over to my machine.

And where does that leave the tenet of auditing patches?

Yes. Basically, if there is 1 person that knows all the critical stuff and you will have BIG issues after they get hit by a bus... well, the rest is self-explanatory. :-)

Valid. :-)

Yes, because the author did the sensible thing of just saying he uses AI to aid and did not dig in further.

Focus on the code, not on the politics surrounding it.

Why would you - EVER - willingly use e-SIM?! At least use an OpenEIUCC-compatible adapter!

>And despite all of this, I am still stuck playing IT boy with my parents’ computers because they refuse to use an operating system that isn’t complete dogshit.

There is no such operating system.

Anything modern (as in, released within the, let's say, last month)

But it's how the people outside of our circles see it. We tinker with our devices, which is not understandable to them - their phone just works, why would they change anything about it?

...and the iOS 27 features are not anything actually important, while China never was an established market for Google since 2009. Things have changed.

...how does that align with what the EU government is doing? The whole point is for you NOT to be sovereign!!!

But this does not allow tracking nor marketing, so why would they do that?

Oh they sure do, because Google/Apple have to bend over backwards for the EU as they are not stupid enough to suddenly lose 500 million users.

The lawsuits, sadly, won't matter. "Security" (or, rather, totalitarian control!) is more important than the 1% of nerds who care enough to tinker with their phone.

...attendance? I landed a spot in likely the best economics uni in Poland while having 52% attendance in my final HS year, out of which perhaps 10% of the absence was due to illness.

And yet it is China who has, for the last 40+ years, successfully used the "start cheap, destroy competition, rise prices" tactic.

And yet, as per usual...

     Not yet available in the EU/EEA while we work toward compliance with GDPR and EU-specific regulations.

Truth be told, the Wii U gamepad is basically h.264 and Wi-Fi as well.

I can't even get Gemini to properly call somebody - it is a mess.

Does it work nowadays? Back in High Sierra days whenever I tried turning this off it did absolutely nothing and still reordered my shit.

We seem to work in very similar fields. I tend to work on the back-end line. To put it lightly: it is all a big shitshow. Vendor lock-in, non-standard communication, network admins who have no idea what they are doing, radiology imaging clinics with no IT staff at all (even on-call external people) or places that had their network set up 15 years ago by a guy who is now long dead or otherwise MIA. And then, inevitably, you have to guide the innocent girl sitting at the front desk to somewhere in the local backrooms just to reset a server remotely.
