>Driving scooters to work is impossible in many places due to distance or weather.
People do this all over the world. Maybe some folks need to take a moment to deal with a little discomfort. Or better yet, build out infrastructure so people have better options.
It's kinda like the early 2000s where someone on their cellphone (and later bluetooth pieces) had the appearance of must be important because they're on the phone.
I've tried Affinity. Unfortunately a literal lifetime of photoshop has made it basically impossible to switch. It's like getting into a car and all the buttons are rearranged and behave different.
The jokes on me. I pirated photoshop way back in the day. Now I have no choice but to shell out a subscription.
Hopefully a cure comes as a form of vaccine so some folks can be totally against that.
I don't think mental stimulation correlates to the development of alzheimers anyway. The papers I've touched on the subject seem to suggest a mechanical failure in proteins essentially choking off and killing brain structure. Although the lucidity period shortly before death is interesting.
Windows doesn't need explorer to actually function, it's just another component that adds optional extras to the desktop environment such as the task bar and desktop icons. Kill explorer.exe, your desktop and taskbar disappear, but programs still operate and can be manipulated and minimized, just in a more Win3.1 style flavor. A file browser window can be called directly without the explorer shell running, "explorer.exe /e".
Problem occurs when you have programs that dip into explorer's shell components expecting them to be running when that might not be the case. For that case you couldn't fully turn explorer off if you were, for example, trimming down a modern version of windows.
Files will always exist conceptually as a way of expressing data. The notion of sharing exists because of sandboxing and the need to exchange data between apps. This has been extended beyond just apps to sharing between multiple users or endpoints. Actual file naming for some objects has been superseded by meta data and tagging because it provides a better way of describing the thing.
The goal has always been to pull file management away from users. Because they don't need to know or care how the internal data structures work. So yes, in a sense file management is trending towards more of a need to know basis.
Right. That's what I added. You have to reverse engineer what's going on. As with anything if you don't know how it works. If your IC is producing crazy readings, or you look under a thermal camera, probably can blame the chip. Good luck getting a replacement.
With regard to your edit. That's where there's a practical limit of what do you (a manufacturer) publish that the tech needs to know. So you need to cross it between technical know how, and how detailed you need to get. Me personally would pull out the oscilloscope and make some probes to get an idea of what to do. You set a carburetor on my desk and that would probably take me a bit longer over electronics. It's a skillset issue, basically, and we're transitioning off strictly mechanics to mechanics and electronics working together. Which naturally raises labor costs because people aren't use to that.
Newer cars do have lower maintenance and repair costs. This is why vehicles with over 100k miles still fetch a fair amount of money. Computers are very good at doing the same thing over again indefinitely, unlike fully mechanical implementations which tend to drift out of spec slowly over time. A side effect of that is they require more time to actually get in and fix things.
Unlike older cars, the way newer cars work is shielded within software and hardware black boxes and aren't particularly modular. You can't just pull a carburetor out of one car and put it in another. And you're fully dependent on the manufacturer to publish meaningful diagnostic information.
Not really. The issue with modern automobiles they don't really report much useful information about themselves beyond general upstream faults. One issue can flag errors in five modules, and it depends on the tech to know about the underlying technology in addition to diagnosing whatever mechanical issue. Techs also tend to be the type of people to throw up their hands and start throwing parts.
This is kinda where we need to shift more towards EVs because that would take out a lot of the complexity you get with modern automobile design.
Same thing that happens if a brake line pops, steering wheel locks up, or the throttle gets jammed open. There are ways of designing redundancies into those systems. Multiple communication channels, reserve sources of power. A lot of new model vehicles already have this stuff, drive by wire for example has pretty much been the standard for twenty years now. Typically, the entire system doesn't go down because they're designed for that not to happen.
It depends on the utility company. Some are better than others.
The grid is a utility. They weren't originally built with the idea of customers sending power back at a small scale. So it's tricky to maintain power fluctuations when you have all these extra data points. Plus considerations for the quality of consumer hardware. So naturally companies would prefer to have solar installations at scale as opposed to by residential basis.
> Win32 Applications will be bundled under the new Win32 App Isolation model, which provides the security benefits of UWP sandboxing & clean uninstalls without the API limitations of UWP.
Wow that thing they probably should've been doing in the first place. I'll be curious if it'll end up as a supervisor (AI) model or if each program will have its own scope of a file system. The latter of course will be very tricky with how intertwined legacy software can be for file and registry access.
Not so much snow, as you have rapidly changing road conditions such as ice and freezing rain. And then factor in poor road markings and not always abundantly clear path finding.
The nice thing about EVs like they're using now. The electric motors are pretty good at responding and handling different road conditions, much faster than ICE vehicles since you can never quite predict what the engine is doing at a given moment.
Yeah animated mouse wheel zoom will do it. And as a bonus "Photos" takes a lot longer to load. And what's this? "Edit an image using AI". Yeah, the pop ups.
Unfortunately you have to patch in photo viewer in order to use it out of box.
We have direct access to people's visual cortex and audio processing with handsets. Folks are receiving a stream of data tailored specifically to their life and experiences. It's pretty direct while still being indirect.
A simple example in legacy media is with Coca Cola. The ads show good experiences and attempt to anchor those emotions to real life events, and then the tag line Enjoy. So your enjoyment is tagged with having a Coke. Relatively straight forward.
These days, and this is still an emerging technology. Ads can be built and constructed on a per user basis. So rather than generalizing, you can synthetically anchor ideas onto individual real life emotions. And then at the right time have the systems massage in the idea of compulsively making a purchase. So while not strictly black and white spinning spiral. It's more interception at a particularly vulnerable moment. At least in my observations.
