I wish I could for work. But stupid corporate policy demands otherwise, Google workspace is so shit.

Could be in the galaxy, but it would be safe to assume out of the solar system by quite some distance.
Masayoshi Son’s business acumen is only matched by Elon Musk.
The article more or less covers it. Asian countries without a credit card culture mostly transitioned to QR because it was easy with minimal equipment changes required. Those with widespread credit cards accept tap and QR (e.g. Taiwan widely accepts QR payments, Google pay, Apple pay, credit cards, and transit cards).
Since the western world has been on credit cards for decades that is the solution that is accepted there with QR payments being almost exclusively in businesses that have a customer base from Asian countries. Even then the US is odd compared to other countries since they never really adopted chip and pin.
They actually have the dual USB-A and USB-C key product that is inexplicably missing from the main security key vendors! While I’m not going to replace my perfectly good keys, I was so pissed off when I bought mine and the obvious product was missing from Yubico’s offerings.
That means that over and above whatever debts they have, they think the market values the data their users have given them is worth that much. That said, if Google is only paying then $60M/year for access to that data, they are going to need a lot of customers like that to reach $6.4B valuation.
For corporations it is, “Never attribute to malice what can be explained by greed.”
316L absolutely can corrode. Add a bit of acid in the water and it will start showing rust soon enough. Typically you can find chemical compatibility charts for various metal grades to see what does and doesn’t work with a metal.
Even though results have gotten worse, every time I’ve tried another search engine the results have been even worse than Google.
On one hand we are already at a point where most people don’t need any more computing power than their phone has. At the same time, for the people that game or need the most performance you are limited by how much size you need for the cooling solution and i don’t see that changing significantly anytime soon.
You just have to go for it and figure it out. I just used it for planning a vacation and found it quite useful and nicer than other options I have used before.
Asianometry has an interesting video on the rise and fall of Daewoo that is definitely an interesting example on how not to run a business.
Just an English transliteration of part of their Chinese name “hǎi kāng wēi shì”
Yes, It is typically pronounced “hike-vision” though.
I don’t think the fingerprint reader is the problem it is how the OS supports it. I tried with my framework laptop and it just stopped logging me in after a misread or something like that.
The two cells tested in that video are different. The Ladda 2450 mAh is equivalent to the black wrapped Eneloop Pro, but the video only tests the standard white Eneloops which have less capacity but a better cycle life rating. This is honestly one of the most disappointing videos I’ve seen from Project Farm, he didn’t test most of what makes a cell better/worse.
Whether or not they are identical cells, from what I’ve read there is only one factory in Japan that makes NiMH cells, so the Eneloops and the Ladda come from the same factory and are therefore likely to be very similar.
VCs fucked up the tech industry when capital was cheap by investing in companies that showed potential for massive growth without caring for the viability of the business. Now capital is expensive and these same companies are now trying desperately to make a profit to become a sustainable business because the VCs aren’t blindly giving them money anymore. This is exposing a lot of company’s leadership teams incompetence.
I’ve tried out YouTube Premium a few weeks ago with the intention of replacing Spotify, but it just doesn’t do the job. I have a use case where I have one computer playing music, but I want to control it with another computer. I’ve yet to find another service that does what I need other than Spotify.
I just don’t get what any party gets out of this. The news sites get traffic driven to their websites by the links where they can serve ads and the social media companies benefit from the engagement with the article. Did someone honestly think that Facebook and Google would actually pay for the privilege?
I don’t think you can cancel an entire country with a couple months notice after you get bored of it.
