I tried switching to Safari 2-3 years back after getting a new M1 Air . After using it for a few hours, websites would just stop working and only fix was to restart the browser. After a few times, I gave up and went back to Firefox.

I would pay for a Jarvis style holographic AI, even if not fully AGI.

Cloud computers are just someone's else computer. Amazon and Microsoft engineers can make the same mistake too. Take backups and test them regularly and you'll be OK.

Sublime is way faster for opening large files.

I tried to switch to Safari and used it regularly for a few weeks on my M1 air. Every so often, web sites would simply stop opening after using Safari for a few hours and only a restart of Safari would fix it. I didn't have any patience to file a bug report. So I just switched back to Firefox.

This sounds like damned if you do, damned if you don't for OpenAI. If OpenAI doesn't implement these "filters" in results, then people would have been up in arms same way. Facebook and Twitter are already complained about a lot for allowing hate speech similarly.

Yes by law I meant the DMA. You said in your comment that there is a need to differentiate between what Apple can do and what they should do and the author didn't mention specific DMA provisions to make his argument more concrete.

What I mean is that yes Apple is entitled to do whatever they want with their IP. But this entitlement is granted by the EU itself. EU may decide whatever they want and Apple can't really fight much against it. So instead of causing drama, it would be easier to just give up and exit EU.

At this point it is upto EU consumers to provide their opinions on what they want to happen next.

If Apple doesn't like it, they can just take their ball and go home. People will probably do just fine without them. If a huge need is felt for Apple to be back, then the law will change.

>Most people want battery life

Maybe for their personal device. But for work provided device, who cares if it is decent enough. Most people just keep them connected to power while working on a desk anyway (in my opinion).

Snapdragon X surfaces will launch in near future as well. Hope they are more competitive with Macbooks.

Most people don't want desktops. So powerful laptops are preferred. Macbooks don't support Linux officially. But Intel laptops do support them. So no matter how fast and efficient Macbooks are, people will still buy decent Intel laptops instead of the best Macbooks.

The improvements seem extensive. Nice to see progress happening.

Yes. ES File Explorer is the best. I only resort to these material file explorers when installing any APK as newer Android versions have restricted APK installation from ES File Explorer.

Material UI file explorers have too much wasted screen space and unnecessary slow animations, lack of bottom positioned controls etc. and it makes managing files slow and frustrating.

Just spread a hoax that Meta is going to shut down because Zukerberg thinks he has earned enough money and there is no need to earn any more. Plenty of people will buy it.
