SMillerNL,

If the company uses a reference to you to make money, I’d definitely feel entitled to compensation.

SMillerNL,

No, I mean referring to the movie Her which features the voice of Johansen as an AI assistant

SMillerNL,

Producer, maybe. But what part of the script did they use for marketing of an unrelated product?

SMillerNL,

Except maybe tweeting the name of the movie: x.com/sama/status/1790075827666796666

SMillerNL,

But it doesn’t reference the whole movie, does it. It’s meant to invoke a memory of a specific character in the movie, since that’s the business Altman is in.

And we don’t know what kind of deal Johansen struck for that movie. Maybe she does own her likeness in it. We’ll see, I guess.

SMillerNL,

War is bad.

Nobody was trying to secede. Ukrainians would like to stay Ukrainian and it’s good to help people who want help.

SMillerNL,

As an ARM Mac user, I wouldn’t trade all this new battery life for an x86 processor

SMillerNL,

So there is something stopping them. The manufacturers.

Strategically let someone pass you?

Say you are in the lead of a race and there is like two laps remaining, and you have someone close behind. Like Max and Lando. Has it ever happened, or has anyone ever considered letting someone pass them on the second to last lap, with the expectation that they would have DRS on the last lap and get the lead back and win?

Apple Announces iOS 18 Accessibility Features, Including Eye Tracking (www.macrumors.com)

Apple is previewing iOS 18 by highlighting a host of new accessibility features included in the update. Eye tracking assistive technology is very expensive so it will be interesting to see how well Apple’s eye tracking works especially with third party applications. I think Vocal Shortcuts will be very useful for people with...

SMillerNL,

I’m guessing that just like literally every other accessibility feature it won’t be turned on unless you ask for it

SMillerNL,

Are they long, super verbose and often incorrect?

SMillerNL,

Why does it make (commercial) sense for AMD/Intel to create so many models?

Because there is demand for various types of systems. And on top of that, if you make a chip with 8 cores and two are defective… just sell a 6 core chip instead of throwing it away.

What are their incentives?

Money

What would happen, if they would reduce the amount of different CPUs they offer? (Is there historical knowledge?)

They would lose customers to competitors in that space. When AMD didn’t make EPYC chips, all servers were Intel Xeon.

SMillerNL,

Mobile Device Management software to keep track of what’s installed on devices (probably won’t work with DOS)

I personally use a password manager to keep track of software keys, but realistically you should probably look for a way to get licenses that doesn’t involve typing a key everywhere.

iPad Pro with M4 chip boasts impressive performance jump compared to just-released M3 MacBook Air (9to5mac.com)

On raw performance might, the M4 really does live up to Apple’s promises, should deliver. Single core is up about 20% compared to all M3 chips and more than 40% compared to M2. The generational computational leap from the previous M2 iPad Pro is at least a 42% jump on single-core and multi-core.

SMillerNL,

Apple already stopped selling x86 devices and even the stuff that is not under their control seems to work fine

SMillerNL,

Last I heard Utrecht is more expensive than Amsterdam these days

SMillerNL,

In the EU the answer would be that we’re subsidising cattle farmers for enormous amounts of money

SMillerNL,

Seeing how they presented arguments in court, they seem to care a little bit

SMillerNL,

Bold of you to assume Alonso would retire

SMillerNL,

And somewhere in the Terms of Service it says you have to give up your first born child. Or maybe it doesn’t, but nobody will ever know because nobody reads more than is strictly required.

SMillerNL,

They could very well get evidence without wanting to name someone. Protecting sources is pretty normal in journalism

SMillerNL,

I think it affects install rate by design, which is bad for Epic in this case but good for security in most
