  • Headphone jack is ewaste at this point. I know all the people here still cling to them because they brought a pair of $50 earphones 15 years ago. But all wired earphones have been usbc for over a decade and most people have wireless ones.

  • They have no choice but to move on. The aws outage took most things offline and everyone moved on. Half the people in this thread say their internet goes down weekly. 99.99999% uptime is a meme that very few companies actually require.

  • Im sorry to hear that. Maybe this is a product aimed at 1st world countries. Expected downtime for 1st world countries is normally under an hour a year and I think people can live with that.

    If your internet is shit you do not need to buy this.

  • You realise that windows already does this and you can still work without internet. The way the sign in tokens works does not require 100% internet connection.

    I hate the idea of a cloud OS but I also dont care about society collapsing as an argument.

  • Ok your internet goes down for a few hours and life moves on. Its not the end of the world.

  • You do realise power outages affect regular PC users and cloud PC users all the same.

  • I understand and expect down votes. I am on the same wavelength as most people here. I am just trying to offer some commentary that isnt the same 100x repeated X bad perspective.

    I actually asked for something exactly like this at my work a few years ago. I was like why the fuck are we buying 1000 machines when we can run all these desks as VMs off our servers. We didnt end up doing it but I still think its a decent idea for business.

    For consumers its a very good value proposition but a horrible trap.

  • I have no idea how you put up with that. I would not accept that from any ISP router. If my ISP router has any issue I can ship it back for free and receive a brand new one a few days later. There should also be options for bringing your own router.

  • yes but how often does your internet go down? I agree with the sentiment and I hate this but we should think about this from an average user perspective when we make our argument. Internet doesnt go down, I've had more electricity outages than internet outages in the past 5 years. if you live in a city its a rare thing.

    The reason why people shouldnt want this in my opinion is not because its day to day worse but because its worse long term. These companies will offer it at a low price to entice you then yank the rug out from under you. You will never be safe with an option like this because at any time it can be taken from you and one day there might not be an alternative market of computers to purchase.

  • Kamala Harris Completely Fails to Read the Room on 2028

    Jump

  • "A secret postmortem of Harris’s performance by the DNC found that her major issue with voters stemmed from Biden’s poor handling of Israel’s massacre in Gaza and her own refusal to break with him on it, a policy choice that fundamentally soured support from progressives and young voters."

    This statement and seeing who posted it disregards the entire article. This is an attempt to undermine a solid democratic candidate to help the right win in 2028 nothing more.

  • I am not able to test the open weight ones since I dont have 200gb+ of vram. So for now im gonna stay on my statement that the bleeding edge mega corp models are the best.

  • The free models feel years behind so people constantly underestimate what its capable of. I still hear people say ai can't generate fingers.
