  • Honestly, Apple was for years very anti-repair.

    So the manuals are nice but that doesn’t absolve them for the decades of products designed to be hard to repair on purpose.

    I won’t go full Rossmann but seriously Appol very bad when it comes to repairability and reliability. But they can release a few manuals and they are absolved for their bullshit?

    It’s a start but Apple still makes purposefully hard to repair products.




  • The problem was solved by Nvidia, then AMD made it cheap and accessible and not requiring a dedicated hardware module.

    For years and years Nvidia increased artificially by up to 150 euros many Gsync screens and for no legitimate reason. Initially there was NO compatibility with free sync at all.

    Nvidia wasn’t kindly solving a gamers problem at least to after the first year of release of that tech. They were forcibly selling expensive hardware modules nobody needed or wanted. And long after freesync showed you could do it just as well without this expensive requirements.

    This hardware module they insisted on selling wasn’t solving a technical problem but a money one.

    I don’t even think anyone was ever able to differentiate between the different qualities of “sync techs”.


  • Not OP but everytime I used the verbose output of ssh it didn’t help me one bit. Even adding outrageous verbosity I was still quite confused on what step failed and which didn’t.

    I’m probably just bad at understanding SSH but i don’t know it seems like ssh workflow includes many trial and error until it finds a way to connect.

    Imo the verbose output of SSH is often not very helpful if you don’t know very well ssh in the first place. Obviously it is still worth a shot and a good advice but don’t expect ssh to clearly state what is going on :)







  • If I’m not mistaken AI work was just recently considered as NOT copyrightable.

    So I find interesting that an AI learning from copyrighted work is an issue even though what will be generated will NOT be copyrightable.

    So even if you generated some copy of Harry Potter you would not be able to copyright it. So in no way could you really compete with the original art.

    I’m not saying that it makes it ok to train AIs on copyrighted art but I think it’s still an interesting aspect of this topic.

    As others probably have stated, the AI may be creating content that is transformative and therefore under fair use. But even if that work is transformative it cannot be copyrighted because it wasn’t created by a human.
