But that is terrible to use. I can’t imagine my kids or wife to use this with TV…

Not mentioning taking 100 screenshots each second with what - 25 frames per second? - is kinda overkill…
So how do you all guys watch content on these “dumb TVs”?
If you connect e.g. android box, how is it any different than connecting the TV itself? Do you think producers of android boxes aren’t such pricks? This bugs my mind.
That’s what’s so dumb with it! As I said, in EU you see the final price, including tax. So “healthier option” with lower tax would instantly be seen as cheaper than “unhealty” one with heftier tax. This way it could actually work.
Yeah, I was talking about local stores mainly. Online it’s understandable as every state has its own view on taxes, same as each state in EU (we’re not federation though).
As a regular European I never even understood why US shops list prices without tax. It feels just dumb. When I go to store here the store is required to show final price on tag - meaning including tax and recycling/author fee if there’s one. Seems much more user friendly.
Autoloader is both advantage and disadvantage at the same time. You don’t need another crew member, but the mechanism proved itself to be deadly when tanks get hit.
The weight itself is a huge factor though. Modern tanks get to absurd numbers where it’s getting difficult to operate them at all.
That’s why I wrote “new/old design”. T-72 and 80 are vastly improved, but still based more or less on design of T-54.
How is that any surprise on modern battlefield? Compared to the situation decade(s) ago, tank is just a prey with so much real time reconnaissance drones and long range precision weapons around.
From what I’ve read the main difference between tanks like Abrams/Leopard 2 and old designs like T-72/80/Leopard 1 is that once modern tank is knocked out/damaged/destroyed it doesn’t necessarily mean all the crew members are dead.
Except for power consumption and heat generation ;-) This is where Bulldozers were hot shit!
Sony went the apple way. Next stand will be brushed aluminium for mere $999…
When either of those things happen it is a good idea to run steam (lutris, bottles) from terminal to see what it’s trying to do while “not working”. Helped me couple times.
Yeah, basically. Except for the S part.
We’re about to buy a few new laptops at work. My boss is hardcore Dell fan, I need to prove him it’s no better than anything else on the market.
I’m suggesting either Thinkbook (cheap option, comparable specs cost 2/3 of Dell) or Probook/Elitebook which are still considerably cheaper than Dell in my country.
So basically attaching regular PC to the TV…
Microsoft make big buck by everyone and their dog having Windows PC and paying for O365. Especially corpos, that also pay for Teams, skype, azure, etc.
Yeah, I wouldn’t get in such a death trap ever, but who am I? Imagining I have infinite money and the world is a sandbox for me, would this feel like “just another thing to keep me interested” like space jumps or formula rental or similar adrenaline gigs? Most likely yes. Everyone in my multi-billionaire social bubble would probably do similar things, so… Why not deep dive? I have paid lot of money, what could go wrong.
It looked worse than cheapest capsule hotel ever built…
I’m mildly claustrophobic and I would have troubles going in that tube even on mainland.
Honestly. I can’t afford deep sea submarine dive. I can afford a train ticket though. Do I question every train company, every train driver and coductor whether their train is real, fully functional train? No, I simply assume it is, because how else would it be even possible for them to operate it in this day and age?
And I believe these rich people did the exact same thing, jist with a different machine…
I highly doubt regular users will exchange Discord for Matrix. Don’t get me wrong, Matrix is great and all, has some great features, but given its open decentralized way it is and probably always will be mostly for tech savvy people. Now given how half of the Discord (the part I know) is memes and gifs spam, it’s not really easily reproducible with Matrix. At least last time I checked Element still didn’t have gif picker…
