Never ever believe companies when they make promises like “we will have x by date y”. Especially if date y is further away than maybe the end of the year. Shell also made big promises and then quietly dropped them. Of course the making of the promise came with a big PR budget. The dropping of the plans was silent. Weird how that works…

Fuck, now I have to listen to that. Such a good song!

I love the idea of using a DOF effect in a drawing.
Also the drawing itself is hilarious!

He still doesn’t know what’s in the secret sauce though.

A R… REPUBLICAN??? No! I can’t believe it! \s

I also at first thought it’s not that bad, because it looks like the main part of the computer is “hovering”, because it stands on that round portion. But then I saw that the button is on the backside! Why? That way you have to reach around everything, making it impossible to fit the thing into some smaller space and still use it. If it was on the bottom but in the front you would still have your beloved button-less design but the button would still be pretty accessible.

Who ever made that deserves a medal.

I can recommend the “Behind the Bastards” (podcast) episode on Steve Jobs.
What a weird… weird man.

Full disclosure: I ran manjaro as a daily driver for a while a few years back bad have been forced back on windows as well by company policy. So I’m not going to be the ultimate authority to answer your questions.
All I wanted to comment is that with iTunes and Office you have picked two pieces of software by two companies that have a very strong interest in not letting you migrate away from them. I tried to migrate my gf’s password manager from the iCloud one to bitwarden and it’s amazing the hoops they make you jump through to get at your data. So what you might be experiencing right now is a thing called “vendor lock”, and I wish you the best of luck for finding a way out. ;)

Yeah, I remember the first time I saw the :// thing I felt myself having a little design-gasm.
This doesn’t touch the same spot for me…

Dare someone smarter than me explain what the ever loving fuck is going on there?

Absolutely not an expert or anything, but is it possible that the partition of your harddrive that you’re trying to install Debian on (hd0) is too small?

You know, I always thought this “gay agenda” thing was ridiculous. They only want equal rights and “be left alone” essentially, right?
But seeing this, they actually seem to successfully infiltrate the conservative mind… so maybe there is something to it? O_o

Thank you, this gets to the core of the problem. Exorbitant amounts of money and effort is spent to find where the letter of the law does not match the spirit of the law. Language is messy, so it never completely will. But in cases where the spirit of the law is so obvious I’m happy when it’s enforced instead of letting them off on technicalities.

I think that’s a very important point. If you “balance” the EQ like you describe but you boost a frequency band that our ears are more sensitive to and lower a band that we’re less sensitive to by the same amount of dB… The mix might still sound louder than before.

So don’t worry too much about the numbers and heed the great advice given in this thread.

I remember that in some episode of Digimon some kid had one of those and back then I thought this was the most amazing shit.

Why are they using Word in an exam in the first palace? Like, to write an essay? Our non-pen-and-paper exams were all using some web platform that worked pretty well.

Now let the mathematicians fight over whether you should approximate that as a “let’s assume a perfectly spherical cow” or rather as a… cube? A prism?

I think the savyness needed is surprisingly low.
But there’s also a level of psychopathy needed that just not that many can reach.

Thank you for sharing your experience and may the winds blow ever in your favor! Ahoy!
