My still new-ish phone is a pixel 4a I got used. My laptop is a 2012 model and my car from 2006.

The release cycles are insanely fast and have been for a while.

Still no LiDAR.

Sensors that the Tesla famously doesn’t have (afaik, didn’t check) because Elon is a dumbass.

Love you too <3

I use Arch BTW.

I’m a heretic, but Vista > 7 and 8.1 > 10.

I wish they had an eGolf comparable to the Bolt and the Leaf.

My modelling is CPU bound as it’s a model made in Fortran by physicists (me included). The fact is that I wouldn’t get a 4x boost, and a model running overnight still would. When I actually need performance I use a 1000 cores compute cluster for multiple days, so that would never run on any consumer CPU anyways.

For the data processing, the real bottle neck is disk access and my scripting speed, so the CPU doesn’t really need to be amazing.

I have an other 2-3 years with my 1600.

Gaming, working (data processing, physical modelling).

The trick is to use a lower overhead OS than Windows.

I’m still using a i7-3630QM and a R5-1600.

They are both enough for what I do with them. Why would I upgrade?

I feel vindicated that Vista and 8 where my favorite as well.

It’s not worth the cost of ruining LEO and the environmental effects of them burning up in the atmosphere

Sponsors pay much more than views. So does patrons.

The true issue is discoverability in my opinion.

Where can I book a train to Europe?

Move it to am external hard drive with anything else you want to keep, then you’ll have access to it on any computer no matter the OS.

Fair enough

Please, most people don’t know how to use a scientific calculator at all.

If I want to look at the world through a screen I’d stay home and watch a documentary.

The camera they use will never have the acuity, color perception and dynamic range that your eyes have. It probably doesn’t work super well in dark environment and it’s definitely completely useless for stargazing.
