I'm with the other two replies. My recommendations match my interests quite well. Probably due to what videos I like and others that I hide because they're not relevant to me. I don't think I'd be using YT if it weren't for the video suggestions.

Might just be you're doing too much exercise. If I over-reach too far, I end up not being able to sleep all night.

Looking inside of myself just makes me more restless. It's about the worst thing I can do if I actually want to sleep. Exercise has been a great help in shutting off my mind at night.

We don't need perfect immunity. Canada has shown that focusing on first doses over "full" immunity can work quite well at a population level.

The flu vaccine is around 10-40% effective. Bu suddenly we pretend like if a vaccine doesn't give us 98% immunity, it's useless? Seriously?

I'm not sure it's alluring. It's possible. I'm not sure our inherent psychology is sufficient to cause what's happening in the US.

I feel like we're already seeing the effects of chemicals like lead now. How many older people are suddenly radical Trump or QAnon supporters?

Working in PC repair, a majority of my customers can't just up and buy a new PC just because Microsoft arbitrarily decides that whatever they have isn't good enough, even though it has sufficient performance.

I seriously hope the EU becomes aware of this and forces MS to change this crap. It's actually insane from a sustainability standpoint.

I had no idea they'd gone back to 4 numbers for some of their CPUs. What does G7 even mean?

It's still unclear to me why anticompetitive behavior is so hard to understand for people here. Free markets don't exist. Stop pretending they do. Apple has a crazy amount of power over companies selling apps on their platform. Power that would easily be considered a monopoly and anticompetitive if brought to court in, say, Germany. The fact that Apple doesn't own the smartphone market completely is irrelevant. What matters is their potential and real power to unilaterally decide on contract/business matters affecting any number of companies that use their platform.

I'm confused. I easily get 8-10 hours on my Core i7 laptop as long as I'm not at 100% CPU usage permanently. Modern Ryzens also hit this easily. So I don't know why 8 hours screen on time on a tiny screen with an incomparably weak CPU is supposed to be proof of how much we need ARM.

Apple's M1 is in a class of its own, unfortunately.

It's the university that allowed the research to take place. It's the university's responsibility to fix their own organisation's issues. The kernel has enough on their plate than to have to figure out who at the university is trustworthy and who isn't considering their IRB is clearly flying blind.

There are literally mails in that list pointing out that commits made it to stable. At least read the damn thing before repeating the professor's/student's nonsense lies.

I'm depressed by the state of anime. It seems the industry has generally taken "adult" to mean violent. I grew up watching the gruesome stuff. But the industry still seems to be in that edgy teen phase 99% of the time (3 decades later) and they have no idea how to handle adult themes without copious amounts of blood.

Stuff like Time of Eve or Planetes are like beacons of light in a sea of shit.
