  • Eve Aqua (3rd-gen) review: Upgrades all around for this Thread-enabled spigot

    seanjseanj
    Bit of an optimistic launch given most of the Western world is in drought with many countries banning the use hosepipes and sprinkler systems… and it’s only going to get worse long-term. :/

  • Compared: M2 MacBook Air vs Surface Laptop Go 2

    One runs a decent quality operating system.
    The other is infected with Windows.

    One will easily last a decade and receive operating system updates that will improve it for most of those years.
    The other will be crocked but the next release of Windows or some other whimsical requirement that Microsoft imposes.

    I just want to take a moment to lament the passing of the tapered thickness (thinness) that has, until now, always been associated with the MacBook Air name.

    I can't argue with Apple's decision to reimagine the M2 MacBook Air as a uniform 0.44-inch thin design, especially given that they shaved a full 20% from its volume as compared to the M1 MacBook Air. But I will still miss the wedge-shaped design of all previous-generation Airs, which became absolutely iconic and influenced the shape of thin-and-light notebooks throughout the industry for well over a decade. Apple didn't invent the wedge shape for notebooks, but they perfected it with the Intel- and M1-based Airs. The design certainly earned a revered place in computing history.

    I'll tell ya what, though: Speaking of iconic designs, I would be willing to pay a (slight) penalty in thinness if it meant we could still have a glowing Apple logo.
    Agreed, bring back the glowing logo!

    Now that Jony Ive has left, why does Apple still not give enough ports to the computers?

    They actually want people to be in dongle hell. 

    Provide another USB-C port on the right … would have been great. 

    Other then the position of the ports, I think the rest of this upgrade is wonderful. 
    Maybe because it wasn’t Ive that was responsible for reducing the number of ports. It’s just all the haters on here assumed it was him…

  • If US lawmakers are good at anything, it's failing at technology

    seanjseanj
    US lawmakers seem to fail on a great many topics, the saddest being gun-control. The USA is the only Western democracy to regularly suffer school shooting massacres…
