Not "my network has a default or empty password, I can't make people sign in again."

That doesn't mean there's any sense in adapting terminals for haiku usage.

Absolutely a tongue-in-cheek example, but "there's something for everyone" doesn't mean that something is something everyone should implement.

I am awful at remembering names and characters from books. I'm all good while I'm reading them, but if you asked me "What did you think of John's situation in $BookX" I would find it hard to answer. That said, it all goes into the gestalt jumble of ideas that is me.

I'll say that I mostly read comparitively low-effort fiction that people rarely "test me" on, so it possibly matters less.

> We figured we would need about 100 Steam Decks to pull this off. And as luck would have it, we had that many old OLED prototypes laying around the office.

I had fun reading about it; would probably have had fun doing it. No worries if that doesn't match up!

Hard choices, but it was nice to do.

I've been using Teams for years, and though I had an issue on a call with one guy the other day, otherwise I'm in at least one meeting with ~5+ folk daily and it works consistently.

Why teach C++? Some students might not prefer that to C#.

My problem at school was always "how do I apply this lesson to an actual problem?" Picking _something_ (anything!) to teach is great (to me), because canny students can go off and use the lesson to do _anything_ else.

Question: does that count as going vegetarian? To me that's just going techno-carnivore.

Whatever you're using to sync contacts, without syncing them to this contact app, it seems (to me) as useful as keeping a textfile full of phone numbers in Dropbox. You won't have any useful prompts telling you that it's Dave phoning you, John texting you, or Alice's number to phone/text.

This is, admittedly, neatly worked around by keeping your permission requests under control, but... stuff like this[1], from before the granular permission system on Android was available, are annoying.

So though you have a point, I don't think it goes against the post.

Woah - just for your information, there is no credential sharing required here.

Sadly, I hadn't researched labour-laws in the US (or healthcare, or... well, many things). Seems like a bad deal, now - though a few of my friends have moved out there, I don't particularly envy them.

I would be exceptionally surprised to see any of the higher-budget games running on a single thread. Low-budget indie games less so.

Personally, I've found that a good benchmark for "what is happening in most games" is the lowest common denominator - consoles.

Having said this, you might be arguing that it's hard to split everything out equally in a game - but it's far more likely that threads are created for the stuff that can be - physics calculations, sound, etc. (the stuff that might have, in the past, be split out to dedicated hardware)

I suspect he means Android-without-Play-store, rather than phone-without-Android.
