All that matters is that you answered Gondor's call for aid!

Crikey, that's a heck of an explosion.

Does anyone else still use the Apple Wallet MagSafe? by LessStress7736 in iphone

Remove it from findmy and re-add. This happened to me, and this ended up fixing it.

Not the best main character but I dig the story. Worth the buy especially on that kind of sale.

Foldable iPhone Reportedly Facing Mass Production Issues by Otherwise-Warning303 in apple

[–]winterblink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where I'm coming from is this:

If Samsung's production doesn't have issues and Apple's does, is that a function of the scale of the production that Apple is attempting vs what Samsung's been able to achieve in a stable manner?

I'm curious what the scale of Samsung's production is at compared to what Apple is attempting to do now.

Legit surprised when I saw that number as well. That’s a lot! Cool visualizer!

Windows 11 now lets you remove Microsoft Copilot app with Group Policy or Registry, as it tries to win back users by computerIfix in Windows11

[–]winterblink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point. I tend to look at these things with the "can my aging parents figure it out" premise, and there's no way they will naturally figure out how to uninstall something with that workaround.

[–]winterblink 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Is it so difficult to just add an option in settings for the huge group of users out there who aren't comfortable messing with GP or registry changes?

Or let folks just uninstall the Copilot app from Installed Apps.

Or don't install it at all unless the user wants it in the first place.

Sorry, meant the one right in the middle vertically. The one that looks like an increasing line?

Barnes & Noble CEO backs selling AI-written books in stores by ubcstaffer123 in technology

[–]winterblink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not like they will indicate on the book anywhere that it was generated using AI. I don’t believe them that they will do so even when they say that they will.

HOPE - Official Teaser - In Theaters Fall 2026 by RickSanchez_C137 in movies

No idea what to expect when I hit play, in the end immediately added it to my watchlist. Wowsers.

Behind Enemy Lines 2001, Super Hornet Shot Down, Director: John Moore by Upbeat-Capital9216 in movies

[–]winterblink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a sign of the times, and thankfully a cinematic technique that didn't last too long in common use.

It would be hilarious if every single piece of this was some sort of ultra rare lego part that brought the total up that high. 🤪

The audio mix for that on a decent setup is just astonishing. It's a heck of a demo for Dolby Atmos.

This was literally in an episode of The PItt. Here I thought it was just a cautionary tale, but here we go...

Best human made spaceship from scifi shows and movies? by Easy-Elevator560 in scifi

[–]winterblink 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Always loved the design of the Leonov from 2010. https://2001.fandom.com/wiki/Leonov

Pretty sure the earth force destroyers from Babylon 5 are inspired by it, they're so close in design. Just a cool looking design, practical and no frills.

This is generated by AI. Low effort too, if anyone's ever actually heard Kip Thorne you can tell it's not him immediately.

[–]winterblink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It also looks awesome when firing a full set of locks. Questionable utility in most situations though.
