That's crazy.

It sounds crazy because it's not true; the Duo weighs 8.96oz, or 254g, a far cry from the MacBook weights.

I think they meant the weight reduction is equivalent to the Duo.

The delta is 300g, which is close(ish) to 254g. But yes, the laptops are heavier than the phones.

the new macbook weights one Iphone Duo less than the old macbooks.

How many bananas is that?

Tried to fold a banana?

They will pry my M1 Pro Macbook from my cold, dead fingers.

I feel like that was simply a limitation of the hardware at the time. Given modern hardware, I'm willing to bet that people of the 2000s would have made wild stuff.

Totally. Using Windows Vista Ultimate just for using Windows DreamScene ( e.g playing a video as a desktop background). Totally dumb, totally destroyed performance, totally cool :D

Microsoft isn't the biggest user of this program, Amazon is: https://miserablyunemployed.com/market/h1b

Different program, but weird that you'd need that many visas in a market where so many US developers are unemployed.

Not weird, just cheaper labor.

That's for H1B immigration visa applications. Those are not green cards.

The first sentence of TFA:

> President Donald Trump’s administration is suspending tech giant Microsoft from a program to apply for green cards for workers who come to the U.S. to live and work using H-1B visas

Everything described in the article, is about H1-B. So yes, the action is preventing greencard applications for those H1-B visas, but that is functionally the same as restricting Microsoft's access to H1-Bs since a future green card sponsorship is the reason many are there working for them on that visa.

> program to apply for green cards

The article is about green card applications. Not h1b sponsorship

> that is functionally the same as restricting Microsoft's access to H1-Bs since a future green card sponsorship is the reason many are there working for them on that visa.

That's quite a stretch. Only to some extent is true

Suprised they didnt get amazon and oracle.

oh wait...

I just don't use it. I'm on a laptop with 500gb. I don't want to lose on so much disk space for a feature I won't use.

I migrated from Nuxt to SvelteKit last year and never went back. It's great.

Can you say more? I’ve been getting great results with Nuxt and Nuxt UI, and I’m having a hard time thinking of ways SvelteKit would be worth the switch.

With Vue, you require each library you use to be Vue specific, Nuxt UI, Vuetify, etc, while Svelte works seamlessly with vanilla JS libraries, also Svelte feels more like vanilla HTML/CSS/JS with some sparkles over it.

Ya, exactly this.

I'm so glad that other people here are interested in what life was like in deep time. I find it so fascinating getting these little glimpses into worlds that lie buried beneath us, and just to tantalizingly out of reach.

What blows my mind is that the homo-lineage was around for a million years, and they're finding we interbred many times throughout that time.

It was only in the last 10-20k years or so where farming emerged.

I don't know, but I think it's incredible how little time has passed relatively compared to our long history, of us being domesticated.

I watched the Herzog doc “Cave of Forgotten Dreams” [0] a few weeks ago and highly recommend it (about cave art ~30~15kya; borrowed the dvd from local library). There are some goofy bits but overall is amazing. My favorite part is how there are different paintings in the same cave separated by around 4k years — some “tracing” the previous paintings. It reminds me how Ancient Egypt had such a long history there were Egyptologists within ancient Egypt. [1]

Herzog is such a treasure.

I recently took my app off of Mongo Atlas because I was tired of dealing with charges that caught me off guard. I was tired of feeling like I was getting nickel and dimed over every little thing.

I ended up migrating everything to DigitalOcean's managed database for 1/3 the price. Less headache, better performance, and less panic and anger.

I'll never, ever use Mongo Atlas again.

It looks.. fine? I don't understand why people have to complain about every little thing.

I think the main complaint is why the need to change the UI. I happened with Firefox not long ago. They redesigned the whole thing and the only workaround is installing the Firefox UI fix addon. Same with Reddit. If you are going to make UI changes, make them optional, don't force them to your users

Turning off `browser.nova.enabled` to off in `about:config` also helps even without ext, not sure about for how long, though.

I was referring to a previous redesign lol. A few days after my comment Firefox released yet another unwanted redesign. I have disabled it with the nova enabled = 'false' but it shows what I was talking about

Psoriasis sufferer checking in. Brutal.

You might want to check out the low vitamin a crowd. Some weirdos in there, but we all do very well. Seems to help with many autoimmune disorders (for me: allergies and nightly urination almost gone).

e.g. microberto on X, nutrition detective on YT

Jfc, no. I'll stick with my rheumatologist. Getting health advice from people online, much less X, is one of the core problems of modern society. People need to get a grip.
