He then directed his staff to bomb several boats of migrants and shoot some more church pastors in the face with tear gas canisters.

A con man named Kash, ripping you off in Vegas, while wearing plaid suit.

If I were to write a novel about this in 2010, the publishers would ask me to try harder.

If you’re not already doing so, you probably should use a 3rd party client that can connect to Gmail and filter out spam.

If you tell us what platforms you use, we can probably provide some recommendations of stuff to explore.

Google’s push for using Gemini is so aggressive. Everything is littered with pop ups.

Well, now it’s training LLMs on them.

Weird. I never noticed that. I bump mine up a bit from the default, but I don’t max it out. That’s way too fast for me to handle.

I do know there are ton of apps that will override the defaults. I think the OG better touch tool will let you max that thing to warp speed.

IMHO, it depends on the company, their data retention and security policy, and what you mean by “locked down.”

I’ve had IT departments that are comfortable giving everyone admin accounts and full sharing access, and IT departments that control every little thing that goes in and out of your machine.

My guess that they’re trying to standardize around a platform that has a) no Microsoft, b) won’t cause product / UX / marketing to totally revolt, c) is well supported as an engineering platform (in Silicon Valley)

Interesting. I’ve got of gripes with Apple hardware (price, upgradability, silly things like notches and Touch Bars,) but trackpads has never been one of them. I’ve always thought the’ve had some of the best trackpads.

What trackpad do you prefer and why?

Yup

When recently onboarding for a new job I heard something I never thought I would hear in my life.

Everyone was given a Mac. Eng, design, finance, HR. Everyone. In my onboarding cohort, someone in finance asked if they could have a Windows PC, which has been the backbone of finance orgs for decades. IT said no. They just didn’t want to deal with Microsoft’s enterprise ecosystem.

I can’t believe Flag Eagleton did the president dirty. And that man calls himself a patriot.

Oh yeah, I’m not saying they’re safe, I’m just saying the my classic car is a really cool looking death trap.

I ended up totally updating the breaks with disks because I was tired of starting a block away to stop at a red light.

At least the geo has a driver’s airbag, crumple zones, disk breaks, shoulder belts, and dash and steering wheel that won’t turn your face into ground chuck, and a rear gas tank that only a Pinto would love.

Still probably safer than my 65 Mustang.

Nvidia doesn’t make GPUs. TSMC does.

Nvida just sends them their design specs.

Apple, Google, Nvidia, etc. - all TSMC in Taiwan. A country that China would love to occupy given a good motivator.

Nah, they make them in the stockroom out of leftover shipping boxes and old VCRs.

I thought this was going to be a weird ass figure of speech.

They got 25 years. That’s a pretty good run.
