  1. Re:It's a hidden feature on Apple Hit With Class Action Suit Over Lack of Dust Filters In Macbook, iMac (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 2

    Like most electronics with intake fans, such as games consoles and PC's, it's a good idea to crack them open and clean the dust out every 1000 ish hrs of operation, or when the fans become noisier than they should.

  2. Our orgs T-series thinkpads don't have filters. They do have mesh over the intakes, but that's like sifting flour with chicken wire.

  4. Only thing more childish than bitching about a personal opinion is to post it anonymously on the internet.

  5. Does anyone even use the goddamn voice assistants?

  10. Yes, but at least it's unlikely to re-enable the options on an update.

  11. *I think you'll find that the NeXTstep is the foundation of Mac OS X/macOS

  12. I blame the fact the baseband processor is x86

  13. I work in a secondary school, and praise the ability to be able to wander around and fix issues when the school has yet to be filled with kids. When the kids are in, it's actually much harder to arrange meeting with teachers and solve issues, as they're either busy teaching, or busy eating/having a break. A 9-3 shift pattern would make my job almost impossible.

    On the other hand, i left the catering industry 3 years ago. Now if you want awful shift patterns, that's the job to have. I'd work split shift 11-3 and 5-10. Thats 8 hours a day with a gap in between. It gives you very little time to yourself, and the time you do have, you spend fretting away about the fact you have to go back to work.

    Ditch the shift work! Keep the 9-5!

  14. It's a legal grey area. But the fact is, if you have not swapped money for a physical product, chances are your access to said product are in the hands of the products provider. If they can no longer legally distribute it, you lose access to it.

    Don't like it? Buy your media on physical formats

  15. Next time actually buy your content on physical mediums. All companies are held to the same legal standing, regardless of if it is Apple, Google, Amazon, Netflix, Spotify etc.

  16. And you assume that you own the files kept on Apples servers? How naive of you.

  17. Re: Considering we still do slavery on Python Joins Movement To Dump 'Offensive' Master, Slave Terms (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    Education is only a benefit if it can be used to get a job once released. Most businesses won't employ people with a criminal record, so it's almost pointless.

  18. Digital purchases do not imply that you own the content. Digital purchases are a contract that you can have access to said content for as long as the distributing company has the right to distribute it.

    Nothing new here, please move along.

  20. Meanwhile the USA is betting on coal.

    Apparently they're worried about nuclear power plants releasing radiation even though coal power plants release more radiation. Logic.

    Either way, this power plant will be totally obsolete in the next 25 years, as the Molten Salt reactor technology the chinese have been working on matures and plants using this superior design get built and comissioned

  21. Re:Sad they're getting even worse at developing... on Microsoft Removes 'Sets' Tabbed Windows Feature From Next Release (groovypost.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I fail to see how this is a new development for Microsoft. Everything's been going to shit since about 2007. Microsoft's biggest mistake was not putting their hands up and saying "Windows 8 was a mistake, we're going to bury it, and release a version of Windows that works". Instead, we got Windows 10, which is probably more broken and glitchy than Vista.
