And the 13" Air is still heavier than the Asus A16 :(.

I think since 10.15 the built-in command line tools in MacOS are there mostly for backwards compatibility. This was clearly communicated about scripting languages, but there was a feeling back then that this was about the whole lot (all cli tools).

The media just have to report the removal of ad blocking as a security/safety issue.

If users are made aware that what Chromium is doing, they can make a better decision, but it has to be called out in every post about Chromium (preferably mentioning a few safer choices), otherwise it will disappear in the noise.

I had great results combining the two. If you (or your employer) can afford then you can ping-pong the models in the plan phase (not really ping-pong as humans should get a say too) and then let one implement and the other review. I got better results working this way than just to stick to a single model.

I grew up in/with cars which would score 0 (more like -3 to -5) and made it to adulthood, so I have a feeling that these features are not strictly neccesary.

At the same time what if it saves at least one life a year? (same goes for riding with/without helmets)

My only problem with the Neo is that the base config has a good price, but if I want 512GB storage it reaches into the usable PC category. Usable for me: 16GB/512GB, Arc/RDNA 3.5 GPU Different tradeoffs obiously: light, good screen & touchpad versus Linux compatibility and backlit keyboard.

This seems to be a product management hickup. Call it either something else or add the functionality to WordPad.

The cheapest machine with Linux in the Australian Dell store is 13000 AUD (~9000 USD). You can buy many things for that money.

It does not help that many have kids later in their lifes nowodays and they are highschoolers when they hit that 50. (+ having first one late means having the second one even later)

(btw I did try to tell friends similarly that half way is at around 35-40, don't look at 50 as start of the B side)
