Is it a mistake? It was for these extremists that the original Twitter was evicted.

Whoa. The EU just passed sweeping new regulations on batteries. An important section:

"Designing portable batteries in appliances in such a way that consumers can themselves easily remove and replace them;"

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20230609IPR96210/making-batteries-more-sustainable-more-durable-and-better-performing

This seems like it will apply to phones and computers. The days of the "glass sandwich" phone might soon be over!

At least, when these regulations go live in 2027...

Microsoft is investing in nuclear fusion power, the energy process that powers the stars. The tech giant has signed a power purchase agreement with Helion Energy, a company developing a compact fusion reactor. Nuclear fusion could offer a clean, safe, and abundant energy source but requires extremely high temperatures and pressures.

Just bought a Surgace 9 Pro for my wife’s business (i5 16GB). have done a good job copying packaging, documentation and initial onboarding.

BUT

By default Windows 11 Home not Pro is installed so I can’t login with M365 or add the pro to her organisation.

Installing updates, for Windows and Office is painfully slow. Like hours.

Screen is good, keyboard is squishy, track pad is good.

SO

Not a patch on my MacBook Air M1. Just feels slow and sluggish in comparison.

Hi everyone, I've made a little mini-site about why I think actually, Microsoft's Internet Explorer is the best web browser going and unfairly got a bad rap in the early 2000s for ignoring outdated, not-fit-for-purpose web standards and instead, through innovative technologies like ActiveX, enabling interactive features that true Internet natives really appreciated. Have a read of this here:

My sleep schedule is still ruined. I've been up for two hours already.

queenslight,

@Kaliah I’ve been up since 3AM mountain time, though at 4AM, I finished planting my first E-Tree, a ‘Mangrove’ tree (which will be turned into a real one), thanks to Eden Reforestation Projects in Kenya and / .

Took me 86 days to do it, but well worth it.

I’ll post a pick of it later.

What if you could own a stylus enabled Windows 11 Laptop, that was ALSO a Linux PC, and it was ALSO an Android tablet, and it cost less than an iPad Air (with keyboard), but had twice as much storage as the iPad AND you could upgrade its SSD when you needed more space?

I should just let youtube comments go, but every now and then you get a really smug and confident comment, which is just kinda silly.
