I'll one up this with my hack that changes the value of `sys.platform` based on the caller: https://github.com/jvolkman/rules_pycross/blob/main/pycross/...

This is used when cross compiling binary wheels (e.g., building a macos wheel on a linux build host or vice versa).

It does have a retractable foot rest.

> The only advantage of uv is to have support for parallel async extraction

Maybe the only advantage in a particular area (installing)? Because there are many other advantages.

The rich lock file for instance allows for much better cross-platform tooling. I can build a linux Docker container from a macos build host, for example, without VMs or any other emulation - simply using the cross-platform details in uv.lock and the correct tooling. I can even cross-compile numpy and other native wheels (linux -> macos, macos -> linux).

Other locker tools provide similar cross-platform information (Poetry, PDM), but pip is still lacking.

I think the apple is just a small example to enable comparison.

People that actually have aphantasia will know from a lifetime of experiences (like thinking "counting sheep" is a metaphor), but might not know that the condition now has a name or that most others have a different experience.

Many have a fan option for drying.

IntelliJ was unsupported ("community supported") when I joined in the summer of 2015. I built a new protobuf editor plugin during that period as a side project, mostly for myself, which suddenly became used by thousands of Googlers when IntelliJ became the supported IDE again in ~2016?

I eventually handed it over to JetBrains and I think it ships by default with IntelliJ now.

The settings in the internal version are "Antigravity User Settings". Pretty sure they're the same.

That's been Alphabet's site since the restructuring happened back in 2015. The site has barely changed in a decade.

While all of that is certainly true, even the DU6900 has the "Start with Smart Hub Home" option that defaults to enabled but can be disabled according to its manual. I assume that's what OP is seeing; it's a common thing to want to disable on Samsung TVs.
