Interestingly it refuses to install on Windows 11 ARM. Portable version works fine though.

A nuclear weapon is a tool in a tool box. And nobody's used it since WWII for a good reason.

Why would they need AI to do any of those things? Wrong statements should be caught by editors and fact-checkers.

It more sounds like you're wanting people to shoehorn in AI where it doesn't belong.

Your decade old Kobo is going to be a better reader than this. Kobo Nickle or Koreader will render epub a ton better and faster. Do this if you want the smaller size. It's not an upgrade in anyway.

It’s still nowhere near as good as Poweramp but I’ve found Jewelcase to be better than Doppler.

Not nearly as extraordinary as yours.

Don’t buy the weapons maker’s N64. Buy Analogue’s or a real N64 if you want to play your cartridges.

Em dashes are hardly ever used in modern literature. Sure, it's a tell that people aren't reading late 18th century to early 20th century literature, but that's not the same as not being big readers.

Viwoods AI Paper mini and Supernote Nomad if you want 8” Android. They’re primarily focused on the writing experience but they will run most Android apps and Koreader.

The downsides are that they are expensive and the Nomad does not have a front light.

It really isn't more complicated. These are mostly the excuses that 19th century Western European scholars used to deny the Eastern Romans their Romanness, because they wanted to place themselves as the inheritors of Rome.

First, The Roman Empire was always bilingual. Greek always held sway over the eastern half and Latin over the western half. Once the west is gone, of course you'll switch to primarily using the language that most use. The Irish didn't stop being Irish because they primarily speak English now, for example.

Second, the only states that refused to recognize the Eastern Roman Empire as the Roman Empire were the states that were descended from the German invaders and that was because they wanted to claim the Roman mantle for themselves. All of Islam called the East Romans, Rum. As did all of the rest of the world when they had contact with them.

Third, the switch to Christianity had already happened by the time of the split in 395.

Fourth, Rome hadn't been the seat of power for many Emperors since before the Third Century Crisis.

Fifth, states lose and gain territory all the time.

Read The New Roman Empire by Anthony Kaldellis. If you want to read more about this.

Is the United States become a different entity when it moved its capital between Philadelphia and Washington DC?

That was moved in NT 4 actually.

Wake me when any TV streamer besides the Apple TV 4K can stream a high bitrate 4k HDR video from a Plex server because I sure haven’t found anything.

Why are you assuming that they want to filter out the SEO spam?

I'm not sure what you're complaining about here. People using a service that they paid for? How is that theft? Further, any "theft" of soda from a soda fountain would be only costing the company pennies basically.

The change is about McDonald's not wanting to staff enough to have people actually in the restaurants. They're slow rolling a change to only take out.

How? They're just using the same machines to fill up your drinks and not letting you have access to them for refills. They're not getting rid of soda fountains.

Supernote and Onyx Boox both do meaningful upgrades with useful new features on their devices.

That's because Kobo's sister company Tolino operates in Germany. It has nothing to do with Amazon.

Huh? There's actually more stuff in the way than if you used two windows since the divider is actually larger than the gap between windows is.

The only way this saves on space is if you're using vertical tabs.

Works just fine. I do this every day in my setup. Yeah, it'll take a second to adjust but it works.

It's $500 more. Basically double the price.

Were you running a 386-16 MHz with 4 MB of memory? And you had hundreds of apps listed on the start menu? Because on anything faster it would absolutely not take that long.

It wasn't always instant on boot on my 486-SLC 33 MHz with 8 MB of memory but at most several to ten seconds for it to appear on first boot after clicking.

And on the Pentium MMX that I'm running now it's always instant on Windows 98 SE.

Windows 3.11 loads in less than a blink of an eye on my Pentium MMX, while Windows 98 takes at least a minute to boot. This is with a 8 GB CF card as the HDD too, so the I/O is going as fast as possible.

Good luck with that.

>Amazon are bad at consumer software, with the exception perhaps of the kindle

The Kindle has the worst software of any e-ink device on the market.

Wayland and flatpaks work perfectly fine. nVidia drivers on the other hand...

>settings menu, it was impossible to navigate using tab and arrow keys.

Huh? All you need is tab and the arrow keys to navigate the GNOME Settings app. I'm literally doing that right now. Maybe it was a later addition but it works perfectly fine in GNOME 49.

Are they? At this point I seriously question that assertion.

Because Mac OS X Finder has always been kinda terrible. There was a lot of talk about this in the early 2000s and it's just faded away since the people using macOS now probably never experienced the good old Mac OS 9 Finder.

And its Windows competition Windows Explorer has likewise gotten worse and worse each revision of Windows.

Nah, macOS is going down the crapper too.
