This is going to have a much bigger impact on the third would countries.
Most people here are not going to buy a new computer there are tons of people who buy second hand laptops that are old to be able to afford them.
Additionally people are not tech savvy and don’t understand the implication of this. When they see an ad that says to buy a new computer, they are going to dismiss it the same way they dismiss all the other ads online telling them to buy stuff.
The app was really good and I’d be willing to pay for it, but not a subscription just to use features that are already in the app.
Additionally, it’s a scanner app, who scans enough to subscribe to a scanner app but doesn’t scan enough to not just buy a scanner?
Louis Rossman has a video about goes Netflix will not play 4K content on Linux. For some reason they limited the video resolution to 720.
Not sure if it’s still an issue. Also I had my brothers login for peacock and it didn’t run on Linux at all.
Now I’m just using a mibox, and it’s pretty good and doesn’t feel spammy.
There was an iOS app I used like this that did a great job of scanning text books.
After I used it for about 6 months this exact thing happened. Started charging fees for many different things.
Exporting images as pdf had a charge, then scanning to make the text searchable had a fee.
I just exported as jpg and used imagic and ocrmypdf to take care of this.
Then I learned that iOS has a built in scanner in the files app, so I just switched to that one.
Give us your data so we can tell you how Firefox is taking your date…
I tried to go hard on privacy, but the more you know the more you realize how difficult it is.
So, the best thing to do if figure out who you don’t want to see your info. If it’s the government then you are basically out of luck in my opinion.
I stopped stressing about it when I decided to not let my need for privacy to interfere with my work.
In my personal life, things are more private luckily.
Yeah, there is a way to get modern macOS running on it unofficially. I’m debating between that and just putting Linux on it.
Look at the 2016 MacBook Pro.
They had a problem with the display cable and it can’t be easily replaced since it’s soldered to the display.
You basically just need to get an entirely new display even though it’s just the cable.
Additionally, some shops will resolder the cable, but it’s not a long term solution.
Even replacing the display by Apple is not a long term solution because they replace it with another display that has a cable that’s slightly too short and will eventually break again.
So the only real solution is to buy a new computer.
Well, AI models will improve and so will the hardware. Hopefully that means down the line, Ai will run on pretty conventional hardware and there will be an abundance of green energy.
It kinda feels like this sometimes.
My single biggest expense each month is tax.
Last time I went to Costco, my the second most expensive thing on the receipt was tax.
The author wrote a billion books and spinoffs. He is one of the best selling authors because of those books.
About a month or two ago, I tried to watch the tv show version of the haunted mask. The show did not age well, and the acting was pretty bad.
I guess you don’t notice that stuff as much when you are a kid.
Every time I’ve tried to understand passkeys I either don’t get it and it’s scary to potentially be locked out or I do understand it and I still find it scary to potentially be locked out.
Even 2fa is tricky.
If my phone is stolen and I don’t have my laptop with backup codes, then I’m not getting into my accounts.
What if both are stolen or damaged at the same time?
