I'm one of those. I have a phone, but use it rarely. On the other hand, the tablet is always at the ready. I've only ever wished I could put it in my pocket and ditch the phone. My brother has the Fold 3 and it's intriguing, but my tablet has almost double the screen size and a more common aspect ratio. The new tri-fold actually looks quite promising, if only it could support a pen (which is a silly wish for a plastic screen).

I know how it works and I've seen coffee plants in real life. I didn't know the fruit is called a cherry in English. They don't look much like cherries apart from being red...

I guess you mean "berries"

You should try this one, it's not fun either.

Also beware the AI Explained channel, where the creator is full-time investigating and evaluating cutting edge development in AI. You might even glimpse what's coming.

It only mentions the snapshot storage and processing. It's a perfect solution for them. The AI will crunch the data and report only it's findings to Microsoft for advertising purposes. They save on storage and electricity by offloading the data harvesting to your machine.

What are you on about? I've played and finished the campaign and DLC in Dying Light 2 playing only coop.

Most of plastic trash is burned, so it's around only in the form of CO2 and other chemicals in the atmosphere.

There are only a few mouse models that fulfill my requirements and software support for them is bad even on windows. I'm currently on Razer and Roccat, the software is slow, heavy and convoluted, but it's the only way to use the devices to their full potential. There's no way to get the drivers for Linux and that's a deal breaker for me.

I switched from Fusion to Onshape and it's been a treat. The option to use it on an Android tablet is a great bonus.

What would be the impact on everyday life if a nuclear EMP destroyed all electronics in our lives instantly? First there are a lot of dead from car / plane crashes, then most patients in hospitals, then many due to running out of water and food. And what's left of the society then collapses into barbarism, violence and fighting for resources.

It's possible something like this would happen should the nuclear weapons of today be used. The book is hard to stomach, but everyone should be aware of the possibility and be at least knowledgeable in survival without modern technology (if not outright stocked up in a doomsday vault).

One Second After - W. R. Forstchen

Please everyone, read this book. It's sad, disgusting and heavy, but it's probably a documentary for events that may happen one day. It's very well researched and the plausibility and realism make it even scarier. It hasn't turned me into a prepper, but in part motivated me to make our house as self-sufficient as possible. Also it made me aware of small useful things in my surroundings that I used to be blind to.
