I got an xz2 compact and was so excited about it. Then I realized that even thought it supported wifi calling, you could not used the feature on Verizon network. I tried so many different ways to get it to work, but bottom line was Verizon wouldn't allow the required FW. Since I lived somewhere with no cell service, I had to replace it. It's so sad that a phone can have features that can be blocked on some networks...

Damn! I was just about to purchase one after i convinced myself that the days of x86 is coming to a close

Absolutely 💯 not worth it

I've never seen it, but will put it on the list.

Hopefully that changes fast om the next 6 years...

Hilarious 😂 take on the cross section

I actually have a colleague who randomly saw the launch from their airplane. They had no idea and had to look it up after landing. I like all the different ways it can pull people in.

I did it one year with jalapeños and will likely never do it again. The yield on them was actually less than the freshly planted. I think the winter just over-stressed the plant and it never fully recovered. Zone 8a.

I'd happily be the first to dump on Apple or iphones. However, the take away is that the author doesn't understand anything about product design, the difficulty of engineering small devices to meet every specification or the cost it drives into the platform. In 2 years this guy will probably be disappointed that he can't get TBT4 with eGPU support on his iPhone 17.

Maybe...I think this is not even noise for most people.

As much as I disagree with what their doing, Nintendo content is vastly superior to other consoles/handhelds...so I'm forced to stick with them.

Yes. Nintendo doesn't need to ever win a lawsuit. If they simply bring it, they will win through having the deepest pockets.

You already had negative thoughts about nintendo...so does that count? Most people won't even see this...so I don't think it's much bad press.

As for legal battles...being sued is not really about committing crimes...you can lose legal battles while not doing anything illegal. I think Nintendo would likely win from simply pushing the devs into bankruptcy...

Bad press, a legal battle they couldn't actually win if it went to court

Those two seem like a stretch.

Good to know...but who is this a deal breaker for.. people buying arm SoCs know what they are buying.

Also....who the F is plugging in a 4k 120hz monitor/TV? Like 0.3% of people???

Aw damn. I hate cats, but found this hilarious. Also made me miss my cay that just died...

I only wish we all did...

I rewatched the movie the other day and had this thought. Gandolfini was just stoned out of his ass for the first part of the movies...

This is a non-story. The source that their quartz is in every computer is a BBC article that quotes the manager of the mine.

Pointless PR bullshit...

This is so edgy

As far fetched as it is, It seems like the conversations about colonizing other worlds is reinforcing and driving these ideas forward.
