Yeah, you're just running an entirely proprietary GPU that only Apple makes proprietary drivers for. Don't see how that's a win in any way?

Google and Apple have been putting more serious machine learning accelerators in their devices for a bit now. It enables some nice features, like on-device speech-to-text and improved photo processing.

At least when the generative AI hype dies down there will still be legitimate uses for the hardware.

there's a couple EVs that can go that far. I rented a Tesla Model Y Long Range, which cannot. I did not leave with a full charge and didn't arrive with one either. You don't need to.

I charged 3 times on the way up the coast, for 15, 10, and 20 minutes. The last one was was only longer because I ran into target to get something.

That's... 9%.

What car takes an hour to charge?? I used to have a Chevy Bolt, the slowest charging EV you can buy. and it didn't take an hour.

Go play around with A Better Route Planner if you want to see that assuming 3 hours of charging for an eight hour trip is ridiculous.

Edit: 50mph on the highway is laughable, I was going 80-85mph. It's a bit over a 500mi drive.

it was a rental car lol

though you'd be surprised to learn there's EVs under $80k! not that anyone can afford new cars anyway.

I spent under an hour charging on a 8 hour drive. I barely had time to pee or eat before the car was ready. Have you road-tripped an EV?

seriously. my brother-in-law was a dispatcher for years and it took a real toll on him.

he quit one day when a child the same age as his was gravely injured and couldn't get in touch with my sister to make sure all was well. can't blame him.

Too bad most other streaming boxes suck ass and are full of ads. Begging Android TV manufacturers to use a decent SoC for once.

Nice! I recently switched to Android and the Material You adaptive coloring through the system is so nice.

Anything that makes customizing a Linux desktop a little easier is good in my book.

Your users shouldn't even really need to know what an API is, much less be rationing requests like it's early SMS plans or something, geez.

Like 7-10am? My partner and the dog are still asleep, I have some coffee and breakfast by myself, read, workout, and get my day started. i really wish i had become a morning person sooner
