potustheplant , to Technology in Apple Reportedly Suspends Work on Vision Pro 2

Weird flex, but ok.

It is. Another indicator you get is a status icon next to each file telling you if the file is permanently or temporarily (meaning it will get auto-deleted locally if you don't use it) dowloaded to your pc or if it's only on the cloud.

Oh, and you also get a prompt when you delete a file letting you know that it will be deleted from onedrive as well but it will still be in the recycling bin for a while. The only way to not get that prompt is to tick a box to not get reminded again.

Microsoft software has a lot of flaws but this isn't one of them.

Firstly, no, it's not gone forever. It remains in your onedrive recycling bin for a month. Secondly, that behavior makes sense. One drive is a mirror of your synced folders. If you just want to not have the file downloaded in your computer, just right click on the file and select "free up space".

I'm neither and I got it. It's a well known meme.

potustheplant , to Technology in OLED monitor momentum expected to continue — analysts expect 1.34 million units shipped by year end

Text looks perfectly fine from a normal distance on a 27" 1440p monitor. And yeah, the pixel count IS significantly higher. It's about 16% more.

However, if you want higher power consumption and much lower fps for little to no gain, you do you brother.

Do you use your tv for work 8+ hours a day with static elements on the screen at all times?

5k makes no sense in a 27" monitor and no gpu would be able to actually drive that many pixels in a game at a high refresh rate.

You're right, they're not happy, they're dead. And delicious.

For example? I mean, it is expensive but there are literally no other phones with the same chipset, an sd card slot and a headphone jack. Vote with your wallet, etc.

Tbf, I also got it for about $600 so in my case it wasn't that expensive.

Sony Xperia 5V?

Don't know about that camera stuff but mobile banking doesn't have any issues. I have the Sony phone I mentioned above, I rooted it and it has the grand total of 0 issues.

Yeah, that has a locked bootloader and even though they promised you'd be able to unlock it, they never provided a way to do so. There's at least 1 case in which a user sued them over it and asus had to reimburse them.

Not to mention all of the issues with their pc hardware. They're a shit company and everyone should avoid them.

They're also from asus. Big no-no

potustheplant , to Technology in Apple iPhone sales decline 10% in first three months of 2024

There's no need for a defense, buy what you want. However, there are lots of sub-1000 phones that are very good.

potustheplant , to utility cycling in Study finds that once people use cargo bikes, they like their cars much less

True. Which is why saying generically saying "people" is not correct considering that not every city can be traversed in a bike due to a large number of reasons.

Yeah, goog luck using that and not getting robbed in my city. Some things might sound sensible on paper, not so much in the real world.
