The context of this comment is amazing.

Imagine a creature, that died over 65 million years ago (earth was at the other side of the galaxy back then) and yet we can detect how the muscles attached to the bone

I think it’s Chef Boyardee

Idk where, but some commenter once said "Ubisoft saw the success of FarCry3 and, since then, every game they released has been made into a FarCry3 clone"

Just like an ehog.

The last Ubisoft game I bought was Mario&Rabbids - Kingdom Battle it was amazing! I skipped part 2 because the jokes switched from "what’s being done" to "what‘s being said" and, playing in German, 80% of word-plays do not work when translated. So it was just another strategy game to me. Glad I borrowed it from a friend.

That they made public shaming illegal in Europe. It would be so much easier to put those bastards to rest. Honor is important to them.

AdGuard on iPhone was the best purchase I ever made. Combined with baking soda and vinegar - perfect

sigh I said that with 2nd already…

Nah. Never stick your dingdong in crazy. I did that 7 times already. I know I’d do it an 8th time as well.

To Europeans who use German industry norm paper: that’s DIN ~~A2~~ A3 (Tank you, dumb cousin of napoleon)

Sorry for the late answer!

The slim uses 300 W, the normal one 350W.

Why? - They simply redesigned the motherboard (to make it smaller and more efficient, produces less heat), they used a 6nm chip instead of a 7nm chip (same power, but less heat generated), they oped for a more passive cooling solution.

This is the correctest answer. I know sooo many people who still got their PS4 and refuse to buy a PS5 for 1 or 2 games they are interested in.

 
 
 

The UDS033 from tobenone.com is is pretty amazing when using windows for work at home and a MacBook Air privately. Some annoyances exist, like having to plug the HDMI-HDMI and DP-HDMI cables from port 1 and 2 for Mac down to 4 and 4 for Windows whenever I switch devices. I got around that by getting a set of HDMI-VGA and DP-VGA cables. I encountered a problem where I could not transfer my 80 GB PS2 Dumps onto an external SSD, I got around that by plugging the SSD directly into the Mac. VMs and emulators via the external SSD work fine! It‘s a pretty solid addition to my workspace, can recommend!

 

My company is very concerned about security, which means that even the Windows we use is so heavily modified it makes any Arch-user jealous. Nevertheless we have the possibility to work from home. I have a full Apple setup for myself, even the TobenOne UDS033 dock to use 2 external monitors with my MacBook Air M1 (works like a charm btw). But here is the problem: the laptop has no Bluetooth. No Bluetooth mouse, no Bluetooth keyboard, nothing. The mouse is no problem since I use my trusty wired gaming mouse from 2014. My problem is the keyboard. I have not found a single one that is primarily for Mac and also happens to work on Windows, yet works wired as well.

I have read that Apple‘s Magic Keyboard works wired on Windows, can anyone confirm this? The rest of the internet is not very helpful.

 

If I receive an email on my Mac, then the email address that received it is written out as "To:" So I can distinguish between Gmail and Outlook.

But the mail app on my phone only shows that it is for me "To: FinancesDrone" which is annoying. Is there a possibility to change that?

 

I have an unlimited 5G plan with 400 Mbit/s on my phone and have to use an external source to update my watch?

M1: the normal one (sh.itjust.works)

Hello!

I’m about to get an M1 MacBook. I’ve got the choice between a $€£ 650 M1 Air and a $€£ 750 M1 Pro. My research concluded: they’re the same but the Pro has a little bit more beef when it comes to exporting videos.

So far I’m thinking to get the Pro, because I might need 2 external monitors someday, but I make this post because I think that people here have been using the devices for longer than reviewers.

What’s your opinion to those devices?

Edit:

Okay, they’re about the same, so I’d‘ve gone for the MacBook Air M1. BUT: since I scoured the internet ever since I’ve found a MacBook Air M1 with 16 GB of RAM for 800. And Papa knows that this is more good.
