The benefits of having a full-featured computer in my pocket are just too many for me to ditch it permanently if I have a choice. While it’s certainly able to distract me if I let it, I don’t think I’ve ever had it disrupt my sleep (aside from late night phone calls).
I think it’s better for most (and potentially easier) to keep to the smartphone and just better control the applications that are on it and the notifications that they raise to make sure it isn’t overly distracting you. This may require disabling certain pre-installed apps (e.g. Facebook is one I always disable and just interact with via browser when I want to). Another pattern to follow is adding barriers to the things that distract you most so it takes a little more effort to interact with your distractions. Hank Green’s Focus Friend app that got popular recently is an example of that – placing an emotional barrier on getting distracted when you need to focus.
But ultimately, we all need to do what’s best for ourselves. Everyone’s suceptibility to distraction is different and if a dumbphone is what works best for you, then by all means, go with that for as long as it’s useful.
Industry growth. Turns out it’s a lot easier to “think of the children” when the industry is small and niche than it is when it’s making investors billions of dollars a year. Turns out capitalism makes problems harder to solve once the problem itself makes money (see also: tax preparation)
That’s also why the moral panic people switched from trying to censor games through government to trying to do it via finance (e.g. Collective Shout lobbying banks, credit cards, and payment processors).
Though if your question is about why the contrast between moral panic over game content and the lack of moral panic over actual victimization — I think that’s always been the case, unfortunately. People seem more fearful of their children losing their morals than they are of people with no morals harming their children.
Methane is just the primary compound in natural gas.
Some, as prepping the carbon and hydrogen will take energy. But it wouldn’t be hard to be way better than the emissions associated with dairy farming for butter. Cost could still be higher, though depending on how much material is needed for the process.
Is TwinAphex still involved in Libretro? Can’t seem to find evidence of them from the last few years.
The founder is a well-known Christian “pro-life feminist” from Australia.
It’s easy enough to fork the code as it existed under GPL3. Violentmonkey did that when they forked from Tampermonkey.
This dev also doesn’t sound like he wants to put much effort into enforcing his license in the first place.
High likelihood this just some AI bot with no oversight fucking up than something malicious. Outlook.com’s support system is atrocious and devoid of humans at this point unless you’re an enterprise.
I tried to go through their support to tell them their junk filter was fucking up (bank alerts being marked as junk with no way to override) and got nowhere after like two months. Had to change the email I use for banking.
Very little gaming still requires Windows since the development of Proton. The main compatibility problems that remain seem to involve kernel-invasive anti-cheat systems.
They know. The PKGBUILD they provided is exactly the kind of thing that’s in the AUR. The dev’s PKGBUILD wasn’t in the AUR because they didn’t want it to be — instead hoping arch users would go to the repository and use their maintained one. Arch users continued to try to use AUR instead, leading to the dev’s frustration.
I don’t expect this will help anything. If the AUR maintainer is active, they will probably just patch that restriction out.
With how expensive AI seems to be, it’s baffling to me how companies expect to turn a profit on it. 30B a year sounds more like the budget for an entire government scientific agency. And if that’s just for the data services…
The act itself still appears to include the language excluding wifi spectrum.
Certain frequencies used primarily by the Department of Defense and unlicensed devices, including Wi-Fi, are excluded from auction eligibility
EDIT: Unless that only protected sub-6 wifi frequencies…
Wifi6e/7 6ghz spectrum that was reserved for wifi got approved to get auctioned off
I don’t think that’s exactly right. Spectrum that’s already reserved for unlicensed use (wifi) was explicitly excluded from the auction directive.
There may be some spectrum in that band that’s not already reserved for wifi yet that will end up auctioned, though.
The main advantage of 5g was never really speed, but rather spectral efficiency. It allows the same speed to use less spectrum.
EU is also the second largest economy after the US in the world. Vacating the region would cost way more than compliance.
Nokia switched to Windows Phone in 2011, just before the N9 came out. They weren’t bought by MS until 2014.
And yes, I know about Symbian. Meego was their intended replacement for it.
I had a similarly high opinion on Meego’s future at Nokia and then they suddenly went all-in on Windows Phone.
I also had a somewhat high opinion of Windows Phone before MS killed it.
No one wants to maintain an OS for any less than like 25% of the market — which pretty much only leaves room for Abdroid and iOS… and KaiOS I guess, though I don’t know how much effort the put into maintaining that. webOS and Tizen (resting place of Meego) are now pretty much only in TVs.
Pretty vague description, unfortunately. Sounds like it could be one of Eugen Systems’ games though?
Norway is not EU
