10 months is not enough to reliably starve them out, not even in sealed storage. There is still some risk.

The killer VR app for me is golf games. GOLF+ and Walkabout Minigolf. It's a great way for me to keep in touch with my parents who live in a different city. It's like a better version of a phone/video call every once in a while (and at $350 with the better headstrap, it's not too expensive for a present)

Ironically this is where the Quest absolutely destroys the Vision Pro, which doesn't have any VR golf (or even minigolf) games as far as I can tell.

VR headsets are basically multiplayer golf simulators to me. Which makes the Vision Pro a golf simulator that doesn't have golf.

With foam mattresses, you need to look at the density of the high-resilience foam (HR foam) that they use. Generally the higher it is, the firmer the mattress will be and less prone to sagging.

It also means it will be a lot heavier and difficult to move around. If the density info is not provided, you can just look for ones they claim are for people who are heavier than your own weight.

When travel can be instantaneous, location matters a lot less.

The title is misleading, to the point of being an outright lie. The quote they put under the heading quotes politicians, not "tech execs". The only quote from a tech exec in the article (Anthropic CEO) is talking about export controls for chips, which is very different from a "great firewall" that the title claims.

A "great firewall" would mean blocking Chinese AI products from being accessible in the US, not blocking exports of US products into China. The article only quotes politicians asking for that, despite what they put in the title.

EDIT: and for context, ChatGPT is blocked in China, while DeepSeek is allowed in the US, to the point of being the top trending App Store app.

I feel like this could be (opinion) the reason why Devin is trying to charge $500/mo for their tool. They know they only have a limited time window until a general-purpose agent from OpenAI/Anthropic/Google/... can directly do everything their product does. So they have to make their money while that gap in capabilities still exists.

No kids, no regrets, at 34. Life is already stressful enough with instability around housing and long-term career prospects (what with AI affecting jobs and such). With kids in the picture, I feel like that anxiety would just be ten times worse.

I remember reading articles about massive Threads' user surge, back when Twitter shat the bed after the acquisition. How has that turned out in the long run?

More like start learning a second language and give up after a week.

This may be a stereotype, but TikTok specifically caters to people with short attention spans.

This instance is hilarious.

Russia makes threats with nukes, because a country they attacked dares to defend itself

lemmy.ml: Why would the US do this?

The notion that Russia doesn't need to invade or make nuclear threats is completely unthinkable around these parts.

If you just analyze the 1000 most recent posts on the local worldnews, it's pretty openly a propaganda channel.

That's cool if people can agree on what maintainability is, which changes improve it and which changes hurt it.

You can get two people arguing for the exact opposite thing, while both of them use maintainability as an argument.

Or how noone uses the default phone messaging app outside of the US.
