In some places Messenger is the default communications platform, more so than SMS or WhatsApp or iMessage or whathaveyou.

Yeah, that’s my #1 reason to not use it. I’ve got a long list of reasons to dislike OneNote, but that’s the big one.

They’ve also done it with Halo and Fortnite that I’ve seen.
“promotions” telling me to play a certain game on stream in discord (and get some cosmetic item for it) are ads for that game. I don’t have a screenshot of it on hand, unfortunately.
without ads.
only if you have a very strict definition of Ad
If the claims in the article are true and can scale, that’s actually a really cool technology.
Bad experience overall - slow and laggy. We did two lessons on it for a course and then swapped to something else (I forget what)
I do have experience using it, and it’s not worth looking at BigBlueButton.
A 120hz or 144hz (reasonably common) monitor could do 24FPS with no issues, as that’s either every 5th or every 6th frame exactly.
that’s a lot more money for a smaller screen, though. 32" is a big monitor sitting in front of a desk, but a small TV if you’re on a couch.
Depending on the use case something like Obsidian, free commercial software but not telemetry-filled and bloated, might be worth using.
A good article, a lot of those advantages I wasn’t aware of! I think DisplayPort unfairly got a bad rap as “oh, I have to buy another cable now” when it was new, but it’s obviously the better choice now. Although I still hate DisplayPort’s latching, makes it so hard to unplug cables in tight spaces. I’d rather old-style screws than the latch on all the DP cables I’ve used.
Yhe family plan is the price of 3 “unlimited” subscriptions, if you don’t need unlimited then Mail Plus is far more reasonable at AU$140/2yrs, for one person though.
I do wish they had a “Mail Plus Family” for up to 3 people, would be a good middle ground to get my family to switch.
Is there any market research at all indicating that customers want 6"+ displays?
Unfortunately, yes. People who buy smaller phones are the people who buy a new phone less often, and small phones tend to sell worse than the big models (see S10e, iPhone 12(?) Mini) so don’t get renewed. Would be nice if they did.
Python in a spreadsheet would be so helpful, abstracting it out to macros less so. Better than making them in VBA I’m sure, but still not the same thing.
I’m very basic, more thinking about stuff like using Python f-strings and string formatting vs excels formatting.
I haven’t seen any of this in Firefox?
Forgive me if I’m wrong, but isn’t that something entirely different? This is python in a cell of a spreadsheet, which could be really good, but what you linked seems to be for macros, same as excel’s VBA
It’s a genuinely good security feature, but wrecks custom roms as a side effect (which I’m sure samsung doesn’t mind)
That would make some things so much easier, imagine using python string formatting instead of excel CONCAT and ‘&’… but it’s running on the cloud, so going to be slow and fundamentally useless.
Microsoft, forever and always, will keep trying to pivot Windows to whatever they think the Next Big Thing is going to be, and then fuck it up every time. They tried to pivot to Mobile (Windows Mobile), then Tablets (8, 8.1), then digital assistants (Win 10 Cortana), then 3D (Win 10 Paint3D, 3D Objects folder) and AR (why a bunch of Win10 got the semitransparent glass aesthetic), now AI. Maybe they got ahead of the curve enough to be the “leader” in “AI” this time, but that doesn’t make it a Good Operating System.
