stole my rat!"

I remember that also, my church rented a giant lecture hall ranting about backward masking etc. Now the zealots just replace rock hate with "Transgender".

The Suits: "Who the hell left it switched to Honesty Mode!?"

Satan flips bits.

...I suspect higher wages and cost of living are part of the difference.

Ironic the anti-DEI prez is doing the very thing DEI is meant to reduce: putting loyalty and connections above merit.

Frogs are renaming it the boiling human effect.

As bad as the cloud is, too many companies manage IT in a dysfunctional way if it's not their core business because they apply the management style of their own domain to IT, which is often a poor fit. The cloud is the least evil for such co's. Cloud is a C-plus to their D.

Because touch screens are generally easier to break, and has a chicken-and-egg problem with desktop software - relatively few software titles have design layouts that lend themselves to touch screens, which means there isn't a huge demand for it, which means there isn't much of a benefit to redesigns. Most people who I've seen with touch screen laptops only really use them for scrolling anyway, if they use them at all. On a tangential note, I had a client recently *demand* a touch screen for a new desktop; I attempted to dissuade him since a screen that fit the bill was going to cost more than the computer he connected it to...and he was only using it to pinch-zoom PDFs...but he paid for it, and he was happy.

This is exacerbated in Apple World, where the major reasons to buy Macbooks are Xcode, Logic, and Final Cut...none of which are terribly improved by the existence of touch screens, and which cost more to repair/replace under AppleCare.

So yeah, they're kinda like the CoPilot key - a handful of people actually-use-it, but it's marketed as something that is mainstream, which is technically-correct, but in practice, a whole lot of people who have one, wouldn't miss it if their next laptop didn't include it.

Mechanical cheating in car racing has become an underground sport in itself, being the tricks are often so clever and sneaky that it's hard not to admire some, making them bragging point "trophies".

F MAGAnderthals!

glory he deserves.

"don't put electronics in extreme radiation environments" solution to the problem nearly always works.

Maybe you are jesting, but the article mentions applying Juno maintenance & survival lessons to Earth satellites and military equipment, both of which can suffer radiation damage. Consider EMP weapons, for one.
