Not sure if there’s a difference but I have a steam deck connected to a 2.1 capable dock and it works even with VRR (although it sporadically forgets that VRR is a thing and I have to reboot the TV)

Assuming a capacity equivalent NAS might cost $1200

Either you already have drives and could use them in a new NAS or you would have to buy them regardless and shouldn’t include them in the NAS price.

A dev made a mistake when the product was still in alpha and fixed it immediately after becoming aware of it. Let’s never use the product ever again!

“We do not condone using a VPN to circumvent these restrictions. To make sure you will not accidentally use a VPN we’ve decided to make our article about VPN‘s the only one available in this country.“

Correlation != Causation

As others have pointed out we have better lives today because of scientific and technological progress not because of capitalism.

I guess it depends on if they are interrogation style interviews or more of a getting to know you kinda thing. For my current job I had like 4 casual interviews and it was a blessing in disguise. I applied for a role that I was pretty tired of but had the most experience in. Without letting me know the first interviewers recognized that I had some skills that would fit well with a different position that wasn’t advertised on their homepage yet. In the end I was offered a job for the latter!

I know this is anecdotal and probably not how it usually goes. I also agree that 6-7 interviews is probably overkill. But multiple interviews aren’t always a bad thing.

the human population is very much reliant on animal sources to sustain itself

Do you have a source for that? What % of the global meat consumption is actually necessary and what is just for pleasure? And don’t get me started on food waste…

what is required to continue existing as a species

Do you mean scale up as a species? We’ve existed for how many thousands of years in a sustainable way?

the distinctive categories of pets and livestock are an unfortunate requirement of our current situation

A requirement for what? You said we need animals to sustain ourselves. What do we need the distinction of pets for?

People who treat pets animals as property are not good people.

FTFY

I’m not a militant vegan, I do make occasional exemptions for ethically sourced animal products. But the distinction between pets and other animals is just hypocritical.

Organisms like viruses, bacteria and fungi don’t care about country borders. The US withdrawing from the WHO sadly just means that the world will be less capable in responding to emerging threats overall.

Edit: Still a good joke though ;)

Yes, you need internet to use the “smart” features of the TV. No, you don’t need internet to just use the TV. You can connect any device that is supported by the ports on the TV, for example a Raspberry PI with a DOS emulator or for example an Apple TV to replace the “smart” part of the TV.

my body weight in bees. Which now that I’ve said it out loud, is sort of terrifying

Not sure I understand correctly, did you imagine your body made out of bees? If so and if you like reading sci-fi you might enjoy Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Dogs of War.

To add to the other comments, search for Professor Dave Explains + Sabine. He can be a little much in those type of videos and I wish he’d tone it down a little. But he does a lot of educational content that would usually be paywalled so I guess he’s entitled to a little ranting once in a while.

So since Apple is probably not just throwing money away… what other reason could they have?

It’s still good marketing. People will associate a good service, with good/great shows/movies and without all the fluff that Netflix has, with a good company.

You can just pay for and use single services with proton though so I don’t see this as an „I wish I knew this about Proton before“

I was just recently thinking that spray tan on your face is probably considered makeup. And I was wondering if real men (in their eyes) should wear makeup.

Well if those species can’t pull themselves up by the bootstraps and produce value for shareholders it’s their own fault…

Where were you when I was being called a pedant? 😅

Why are they even connected to your router in the first place?
