Google’s TPU’s are not powering Gemini or whatever X equivalent LLM you want to compare to.

But is the new Affinity app quite literally feature equivalent? Is there anything the latest version of Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo Desktop edition can do that the new combined Affinity app cannot do? That's my only concern.

I agree with you. When I read that my first thought was "the one area"? Personally I think its the complete opposite, like really strongly. like really really strongly. I'm certain for at least 10 years now, once a week I think "I miss old desktop operating systems". Any of them. 7,vista,xp. snow leopard,leopard,tiger. I even stopped using Ubuntu when it went from Gnome 2 to Gnome 3 and other options at that time were pretty bad so I ended up getting back into mac's for my home desktop. I still use all 3 daily, but hate all of them.

If that's true I think its genuinely disrespectful. Truly.

What Lenovo model + screen option do you have that is better than the M1 Pro 16 inch screen? I've yet to see anything better.

Randomly found this while searching around about the history of Windows XP. Has anyone made a collection of sites similar to this? I've been seeing so many great ones lately like old Mac ones.

One thing that I notice nobody mention about VMWare on Windows is what about the issues with "Virtualization Based Security"? If you have this enabled VMWare uses "Windows Hypervisor Platform" which I think is also tied in with Hyper-V for running VMs through VMware making them noticeably worse and more unstable especially when dealing with USB devices. During the installer, you'll be warned of this too if memory serves correct. Cons are you cannot use WSL2 and reduced security. How much in reality does it reduce security I'm not exactly sure but I wish it wasn't like this or there was a better workaround for VMware on Windows. VBS feature is enabled by default on all Windows 11 and I think most later releases of Windows 10.

I hadn’t before looking it up, and my mind immediately autocorrected “Hyperlight” to Silverlight.

Jeff Bezo’s foaming at the mouth right now because of what you just wrote.

First thought that popped into my head.

How about like 10-15 years ago when everybody and their mother could spin up a RAT and do drive-by installations with a webpage?

I had this exact same experience with a brand new Dell XPS 15 I purchased around 2018 I believe. It came with a killer branded Wi-Fi card and I noticed shortly after purchasing that it would literally bring down my entire home network at the time. I don’t remember what router I was running or the rest of my home network set up at the time, but it was definitely a really bizarre thing to witness, I ended upreplacing the Wi-Fi card.

I’ve actually had some strange anomalies happen like this on a couple laptops I have. Rebooting or even holding the power button long enough to do according to the manufacturer some kind of CMOS or hard reset didn’t work either. I had to open up the bottom, cover unplugged, the battery completely Then re-plugged in and everything went back to operational condition.

I purchased lifetime, I've actually been looking for something like this for a while.
