I am short on SPCX, so yes, very much “overjoyed.”

All of them? The author points at some particular issues they have had and concludes that all Apple services are garbage?! Well, except for iMessage and FaceTime.

I’ve been using Apple Music, iCloud Drive, bookmark sync, etc. for many years with zero issues. I even host my email at iCloud (since Google pulled the rug on the free Google Apps tier)—no issues whatsoever.

My family has also had zero issues.

Google Maps has a disgusting UX and I hate it every time I need to use it (for the reviews). Apple Maps has been great for the past few years. And don’t get me started on Dropbox with their monstrosity Electron client. F*ck that. Or the silly Spotify client that can’t do smart playlists and has no concept of genres.

IME, while not perfect, Apple’s services’ quality is far above the competition’s.

DuckDuckGo has that feature, too.

Agreed. However it cannot be enforced without violating people’s privacy. I pick privacy.

is-arrayish lmao

A lot of people suggesting paying for Premium. Value for money arguments aside, I see a huge problem here: sharing even more data (personal financial information) with Google.

I, personally, have zero trust in Google. That’s a company that went from “Don’t be evil” to “Be as evil as needed as long as it’s profitable.”

This. I’d be more than happy to pay (a reasonable price to) Google. I don’t want to give them any personal information, especially financial.

You’re right, it doesn’t mean anything related to a physical dimension. Its sole purpose is to show shrinkage (in terms of density) compared to the previous generation.

That being said, assuming that the Chinese “3nm” is comparable to the rest of the industry’s nodes, I highly doubt they can make it. “7nm” is/was the last node size that could be produced without EUV (while still economically viable). And that was with multiple-patterning on Immersion scanners.

China doesn’t and can’t have EUV. They do have Immersion, but that’s now also under export controls.

How does Avalonia do native look-and-feel? Does it use its own custom controls (with themes) or does it try to do what Qt does (using native theming APIs)?

Exactly this. Athletes are an outlier when it comes to BMI.

Furthermore, I reckon the majority of the people discussing BMI, as in these comments, would tend to be outliers, too, based solely on the fact they care/understand.

The majority of the population has no fucking clue, and can’t even read nutrition labels. And I am not blaming them. This stuff should be taught in school—basic nutrition education.

That’s hilarious.

Not that I care much about Meta or other Socials, but would they also stop data collection and tracking for paying customers?

I love SF Mono and use it everywhere.

The reason SF Mono and Monaco are not on the list is probably because they are proprietary.

Same here, I hate ligatures.

You underestimate the sheer complexity of it. You’re talking $1B, I am talking a blank check. That’s probably 100s of different research teams, each with a $?B, whose “research” would have to industrialized.

Then there’s integration and SW. Not to mention performance, metrology, diagnostics.

Now you have to actually integrate these new tools into a new leading node process. This by itself takes years, assuming you have the tools. China does have existing Immersion process nodes, but still.

Even with unlimited resources, I claim China can’t have EUV within 10 years. Maybe not even 20.
