I’ll find one on the used market or do whatever it takes to fix it

I have an old 60 inch 1080p TV from the early days of smart tvs. It has a built in app for plex and youtube, a remote that works as a pointer, it’s insanely slow but it has zero ads and I’m never ever getting a newer model.

They are called mother bee in Estonian.

That too. I actually didn’t think of that because roads here aren’t in a grid like ever so I failed to understand how numbering your roads would even make it easier.

It’s because one road is indistinguishable from another while malls, towers and tall buildings in general are quite memorable.

I’m in my 50s and I can’t do paper maps. I can navigate just fine without Google maps but I navigate by landmarks while paper maps seem to rely on knowing road names, which I don’t.

Could we have HDR support instead of AI? Does anyone even want all this AI stuff companies keep pushing?

Google has been unusable in English for at least 2 years now. Searching in Estonian makes Google behave like it did when it was still good. I wonder how long that’s going to last.

I don’t doubt it, Apple has never had good gaming performance. But a non apple laptop in the same price range with X86 aimed at gaming can run it a lot better.

I’m pretty sure the old AMD APUs from the Bulldozer era can run factorio and that’s like a decade old.

Like sure, it’s some metric but I’m pretty sure any computer produced currently can run factorio.

That heavily depends on what the previous machine was. Like factorio runs on my laptop without taxing the system much more than just idling and on my desktop I can’t even tell it’s running based on performance monitoring. So yea, I’m not sure factorio is a good indicator.

Yea, obviously, that’s the case for most people. A lot of people for who a chromebook would be enough would not be effected, yea but for example software that isn’t getting new updates and like all gaming would just not work on other architectures currently.

I don’t use apple’s stuff but alternatives to X86 could be the future. The one thing they need is compatibility with X86 software otherwise mass adoption is heavily crippled. It doesn’t matter as much for Apple’s stuff since their whole ecosystem is under strict control but for general purpose consumer hardware that compatibility is required first.

Eastern Europe would be a yes. I know Germany is super anal about copyright but dunno about the rest of the EU.

In the US or Germany: Straight to jail

In Japan: Your organs are now the property of Nintendo to repay this heinous crime.

Rest of the world: it depends.

I got drinks a month ago with some people and we bonded over our shared hatred of generative AI.

Estonia sometimes gives out honorary citizenship for some stuff and if it was up to me one would go to Snowden. I have doubts that Russia would let him go at this point though.

If he had citizenship in a EU country he would be safe. EU countries don’t extradite EU citizens to the US. It would be a whole can of political worms to not extradite a US citizen to the US.

Some alien life definitely exists, the universe is a pretty big place after all. There is also zero chance they have come to earth. Such conspiracies need too many people to keep silent and if the US had known about aliens Trump would have tweeted about it.
