None of the is loaded on startup. It takes additional time to load any of those features after 5 seconds of starting up.

Honestly, I have no idea what business Steam has starting for whopping 5 seconds as it is right now (after the 'speedup').

It is a simple shell for launching already downloaded apps. This is disgrace and nothing to boast about, especially considering Valve takes 30% cut of basically PC gaming marked for making it.

Indeed. Russians gonna russian, but I want accountability from platforms allowing it.

Sure, no one know nothing but you.

Listening to russians they are, in fact, the force of good in the World, not a colonial power profiteering from extinguishing hundreds of peoples across Asia and occupying half of Europe for good part of 20st century, not at all.

What next? Bolshoi theater and tolstoyevsky?

Yandex is a state propped and state owned cosplay of western civilization, similarly to all other aspects russia.

No wonder internet is so nice today. Hope they'll keep it up.

It is also arm of fascist government comnmitting outright genocide with war which affected tens of millions and over million victims.

They absolutely censor all Ukrainian content, proactively collaborate with russian 'law enforcement' and just plain out owned by state.

poor russia[ns], lost so much because of all the genocide they're doing.

Which one is bloat or locked-down here?

Honestly, how do you experience those two? Because my personal experience is opposite.

What does it mean for you for a product to be 'locked down'? Mac OS has amazing range of customizability, with endless options to change it with APIs and third party apps. So far I didn't encounter behaviour I don't like and wasn't able to change. What is your list? Or it means something different for you?

And what does "bloated" means for you? I understand what it means in regards to Windows. It constantly gives me options I didn't ask for. Like when I press Start button I feel like I am at the Time Square with ads and stuff I didn't ask for yelling at me. I don't have such expericense with macOS. And apple intelligence fits right in - if you don't ask for it it won't show itself.

Are we looking at the same stock? I am confused where this data is coming from. What I see is stock slightly higher than it was week ago, fell compared to day ago, and the change is 1-2%, way less than you 50% fall claim.

I thought it was something clever, but it shows as URL in QR Scanner, not an APP, which opens browser after activating it, then user would have to confirm redirect to App Store on empty page

TL;DR: it is HTTP redirect based on User-Agent header

From description I thought this is more 'View on a Virtual TV' rather than a full VR thing, I may be wrong. This is good, because I, honestly, find that a lot of my VR time is sitting or lying down.

I am honestly surprised there wasn't a big VS Code Extension targeted npm attack.

IMO, this is the reigning champion for the best-named AI/LLM project to date

Whole idea is from 40s and nonsensical with modern understanding of quantum fields.

It doesn't. It is theory for times proceeding QFT or modern quantum mechanics and nonsensical in its context.

It is like saying that meter is same everywhere. Electron is a quantized energy level of electron field, a measurement.

Woo! WiFi icon changes into Ethernet when it is connected and prioritized. Nice. Long overdue.

Does the "Watch Demo" button do anything?

Brutalism? More like 'Back to school' vibes to be honest

* 12 deaths per 100,000 per year, but 4 people go to jail for it

* 2 deaths per 100,000 per year, but no one goes to jail

Because apparently going to jail is important for some reason?

Honestly, choosing jail is somewhat dystopian IMO

what the point? Rewriting in Rust is not just a language change. Rust enforces designing systems in secure way to start with, not just memory safety.

For me last nail into becoming part of the crowd was Embassy. Whole my life I wrote some ad-hoc C microcontroller stuff. But just learning Embassy I realized that it could've been done much more elegantly and securely. If you have a spare moment, I would watch videos in this channel, old to new:

Why don't they letterbox it?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letterboxing_(filming)

Can someone explain why they don't just add black bars on the side and show in filmed format?

So... CAPTCHA?

That is not how orbital mechanics work.

there is a default three.js control panel. By default it has speed at 25x and 'Follow Earth' checkmark, which makes camera do weird things.

Are there evals if this changes quality of output?

Sorry, I won't shed tiers for russian nationalists while Ukrainians die.

Why would I value invaders lives over that of their victims? I still haven't seen a russian 'opposition' do anything than play victim card while their army butchers people. Or Ukrainians must die protecting their homeland while russians be like 'oh no, putin scary, we just sit home and pay taxes'?

No resistance, just compliance.

For context: this is one more experimental confirmation of Dirac's equations (incorporating special relativity into quantum physics).

Very cool.
