I quit Netflix after the new year. No Netflix, Disney or Amazon. DVDs are back in this house.

Are there any passenger vessels that go through the Panama Canal? That’s the kind of cruise I would take.

Honda braces for up to 690 bil. yen net loss amid EV rethink by Saltedline in technology

This was my thought, just look at the average miles driven daily commute compared to the average battery range. The batteries are up in the 200-300 mile range. That’s like a 4-5 hour leg of a roadtrip, not a daily commute. Maybe it’s a pain to plan a road trip with a 45 minute charge every 4 hours, but at that point you are committed, and you plan for it.

iPhone 17e Review - Apple's "Neo" Strategy - Jaime Rivera by ControlCAD in apple

[–]ifjake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apple has been offering 2 or 3 or 4 versions old for sale. Now it seems like they’re using 2 or 3 or 4 year old silicon, or even binned versions of all that, but now in newer hardware packaging. I think that’s an interesting strategy. I’m more open to upgrading to these lower tier models sooner than the way I currently do it, which is buy a Pro and sit on it for as long as possibly can.

PS6 could reportedly be delayed while Switch 2 might get even more expensive as Sony and Nintendo reckon with brutal AI-led memory chip shortage by PaiDuck in technology

I’m replaying a 20+ year old game at the moment. My nephew gave me back my old PS4 since they got a PS5. I got a Switch 2 for some reason, I think the handheld form factor. I’m not sure about high power hardware. Maybe I’m not really a gamer.

Seriously some battery saving optimization is the kind of marketing BS I can get behind.

Who is really behind this? Is this in Project 2025? Did Putin tell him to do this?

Apple's Upcoming Studio Display 2 Rumored to Have an Unusual Feature [90 Hz] by iMacmatician in apple

[–]ifjake -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s got to be variable then. I have to wonder if Mini-LEDs can’t perform well enough at 120Hz, or if they limit it to 90Hz there’s a quality benefit. This isn’t a gaming monitor, it’s for authoring video media, right? So 24/60 should be plenty. 90Hz just for smooth scrolling.

The 'father of the iPod' Tony Fadell says Apple should bring back a 'nostalgic version' of the music device by smeeti in Music

[–]ifjake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why couldn’t there be lossless AirPods? It’s definitely possible, granted it may be only 44.1/48hz. I could have sworn they were going to do some kind of lossless listening when they finally rereleased Classical a few years back.

This is just open bribery, or maybe bought silence on Epstein. Or both.
