Trying, not releasing

It's cos they're privately owned and so don't necessarily have to be shit, where publicly owned companies are legally required to maximize profits for shareholders.

I am 100% certain it will be worth it. FROM have never half-assed a game nor expansion, Elden Ring least of all.

It'll almost certainly not run very well, but I still played 100hr of the base game despite its poor performance. I preordered too because I know regardless of technical state it will be worth playing.

If they added automatic online account collation and mass deletion I'd pay them $100 on the spot to wipe the hundreds of random accounts I have on sites/services I never use and often have never used.

How the hell does Zoom have 7500 employees??

Apples actually generally pretty good at not wasting much screen space.

I work from home an average of 4ish hours per day, with plenty of breaks whenever I feel like it, and I'm one of the most productive people at my company of 50 employees - many of whom go into the office regularly.

Nilay's point is that the Vision Pro is by far the best implementation of this kind of device yet - possibly just about as good as is actually possible - and yet still suffers severe issues as a result. Usually Apple waits and learns until they can launch a product that is well considered and that often shows the industry how to move forward, yet in this case it's quite possible that they've actually just demonstrated that this kind of computing fundamentally doesn't work.

Yeah I have the dBrand Grip on my Pixel 7 Pro and it's very high quality. Very durable, perfectly shaped to the phone, and even has lowered sides to account for the stupid curved screen etc. Never been disappointed with purchases from them.

Being poor doesn't stop people from voting though. In fact being broke because you've given everything to conmen who tell you it's the other people's fault may actually increase votership of those people.

  1. Ubuntu wants to own snap, with their own proprietary store etc which runs against alternatives like Flatpak and goes against the FOS ethos

  2. Snap is slower and worse than Flatpak (the most popular alternative) in most ways, with very few pros that will likely be caught-up-to soon too
