True, but it depends on their country. Wasn’t brought to the UK until '94 and the US in '96. And on top of that when did they become widespread in their respective country?

Very well could be true, could be an anachronism, or could be someone who refers to all energy drinks as red bull.

But the real irony is doing this research for an ADHD meme.

Seems like they don’t sell replacement OLED screens yet either, which is a shame. Especially since they’ve been so good with replacement parts.

I still regularly go to LANs and sometimes host them. But have to fly to most of them. Some still have that 2000s charm.

Exactly, restart Project Sundial.

Oh woops. I must have missed it last time I checked ifixit.

It doesn’t seem like their point was to trigger? Unless you’re triggered by the word flesh?

I’m not a vegan/vegetarian. But I recognize from a purely thermodynamics perspective that meat is less efficient than a plant based diet. They’re efficiency losses for feeding plants to another organism instead of just eating those plants directly.

Before agriculture, meat was basically required for humans. Let wild animals consume inedible plants and then hunt using very little of your own resources. Now that equation has been inverted since we control the entire chain of resources.

You can be mindful of environmental issues and efficiency without taking a moral stance on meat eating. There’s really no easy answer, it’s very complex. Pollution, water use, land use, pesticides, nutrition, etc are all factors.

This is true for any Android app requiring Bluetooth communication, not sure about iOS. An app might be able to figure where you are at based on the Bluetooth beacons (or any wireless) devices around. Hence treating it as a location permission as well.

This has been changed starting with Android 12 where they have specific Bluetooth permissions that filter out Bluetooth beacons. But it will probably take while before apps update using the new permission

Really depends on the content you consume. A lot of indie games and old games could benefit from 1080p. Especially with small text. And for more power hungry games you can always choose 720p

No, that’s what consumers like you are thinking in hindsight and unrelated.

The context Gabe is talking about is when he was approaching publishers. They were just being anti tech and believing in traditional brick and mortar. They were definently pro-DRM. They just couldn’t fathom a digital marketplace.

I always dislike this take because it pretends the US doesn’t have this exact issue. I’ve known people with less than ideal insurance who had very few doctors to pick from in-network and would take months to get an appointment.

Long wait times still happens in the US. Just like it can happen in public healthcare.
