“Unfortunately, my dearly departed Tofu Slab is no more—and my attempts to recreate it have been so unsuccessful that I’m forced to settle for the next best thing: Salt water-soaked silken tofu mounded on hot white rice and drowned in chili oil, soy sauce, and black vinegar.”

It doesn’t make sense to me that they would split their processors amongst their lineup, it makes more sense that they would do what they did with the PowerPC->Intel shift; develop software for both in lockstep, then switch over the entire lineup. It makes less sense to develop two versions of macOS for eternity.

“That’s because Apple sells a fuck ton more iPhones and iPads than they do laptops and desktops. So it made sense to vertically integrate more of the components for those.”

“They should just go with AMD for processors instead of trying to design a SoC of their own since you know...AMD kinda does well at designing those things for PC applications.”

“The easiest way to get started with Tab Groups is to right-click (or Ctrl+click on a Mac) on a tab header in Chrome

I like the overall tone of where these ideas are heading, but...some of them are just not logistically feasible or practical.

Yup, between the lack of software updates and the Verizon exclusivity, I feel like this is going to be dead in the water.  It’s surprising to me how companies, to this day, still think carrier exclusivity is a good thing.

A huge minus, in my book, is that it will only get one year of major Android updates, at least according to droidlife.

I had a Samsung plasma for a long time, and the picture quality on that was fantastic.  But yeah, the amount of heat it put out...it definitely was a space heater!

Yeah, I’m surprised (yet also somehow not surprised) at the number of people wearing masks that are not wearing them properly. I’d bet my life savings that the vast majority of people are not disposing of the disposable masks after each use or washing the cloth masks after each use either.

“So how well is it going to work when you have to go to the bank?”

Ah, gotcha.  I used Adblock Plus and Firefox Focus to block ads on my iPhone, Chrome won’t work for me either on my iPhone.  Oh well, using Kinja isn’t important enough for me to get rid of my ad blocking on my iPhone.  

Ah, I can’t even log into Kinja on my iPhone or iPad, so I assumed you were on a desktop OS. Apologies.

I get that your comment isn’t entirely serious, but in fairness, TV boxes are enormous, and probably too large to just leave around as-is for your cat to play in.

“Republicans like Lindsey Graham were very explicit in saying they didn’t want anyone to make more money unemployed than they would with a job.”

It’s on their homepage, quite prominently:

“I can see the pixels when you get up close on a TV”

“The postal service is a public good”
