“Please use legal paid services” yeah I would if

1. They actually had the content I’d like to buy available for purchase
2. I actually get a copy to keep and not rent for an indefinite period of time until the rights holder and / or vendor forgets to renew and it gets automatically removed.

I think this humanoid robot will be Elon’s 'Sinclair C5" moment.

Essentially, yes.

In Minecraft this is the equivalent of crafting a hoe which unlocks the whole of agriculture in the game.

Nobody knows what discoveries we’ll make and what will grow from these discoveries. Exciting times.

Each time we peer into the quantum world we do a shit load of what is called Fundamental Research. This fundamental research leads to new discoveries in our understanding of quantum physics which then leads on to commercial research to apply these new discoveries to engineer new things.

What this new tool does is unlock a whole new batch of fundamental research that can be done which in turn will advance what we can build on top of it.

Stand back son!

Protect the briefcase!

T’was a reference good sir

The only way this could have been better was if the tattoo was some beautifully kerned font above the ass that said “the kernel compiling, look busy”.

What’s the counter to that sentence then?

Every time I try to explain why this is a dumb sentence using the door lock analogy I always get rebuffed by it.

CIA agents glow in the dark.

Yeah, speaking as an electronics engineer who’s going through a new product release at work, swapping the screen to a different model, never mind a new display technology, means dealing with slightly different MIPI and TCP ribbon cable layouts. Unless you have a separate screen adapter PCB daughter board, that means redoing the track layout on the main board.

So yeah, it sucks a bit for the consumer but it’s expected. I’d imagine Valve’s engineers tried very hard to find an OLED screen that would work as a drop in replacement. At least they’re not making promises they can’t keep, which happens a lot: Companies often lie through omission on their spec sheets.
