It’s a support question. It may cost $2k more for a Mac, but if it’s officially supported, auto patched, remote managed and they can prove it with security tools, force patching and restrict users, use standard well known tools for compliance and security monitoring/administration/etc, they will easily save thousands in corp licensing, training costs and legal costs. That $2k+ really becomes negligible.

MacOS. Systems doesn’t want to support Linux, and the only other option is windows 11. A few of my coworkers have Win11 with WSL and fight it every single day. They’re diehard windows people who have been seriously considering moving to MacOS for their next round of upgrades.

Please let them be directional, pointed down, lower output and on light waves easily filtered out for night sky viewing. Light pollution is getting worse and worse for no real benefit.

So you’re saying there IS a way!

Ergonomically, I’m not sure that’s better. Sure they don’t have weight on them that the headset would add, but being able to freely move your head without holding it against a stationary headset would be quite an improvement.

Absolutely, but he’s rich so it’s okay.

I get that It’s the current review, and I could see how you could potentially nitpick a play with replays if you did allow penalty review, but I also feel like this should totally have been a reviewable offense. It was definitely a safety issue, AND a scoring play. Perhaps only allow it in the case of certain penalties like this? It was a scoring play, and this is definitely a safety issue.

Paperless doesn’t necessarily require biometric data… still, I’ll just skip Singapore.

Weren’t they already? I seem to remember Trump and “Rocket Man” talks and such the last time he was in office and MAGA was down for it.

Doesn’t make it less fucked up, just that there’s a lot of that to follow.

At the moment it sounds optional, so that’s a plus.

Also:

The previous average clearance time for each traveller was 25 seconds, said ICA.

So, 15s saved per person. Which is handy, but 25 seconds fits squarely in the “blazing fast” category anyway.

Bet the people will spend more than 15s per person dealing with the ramifications of their biometric data getting leaked and used against them later though.

You used to be able to resell your PC games too, back in the day.

Why can’t PC games also come on discs? The last one I had the option to buy on disc I remember was Skyrim. When I put the disc in, it launched steam, connected my purchase to my account, and steam did the remainder of the install over the network. Turns out, it didn’t really have anything useful on disc.

I’ve had properly stored, professionally pressed, official DVD and CDROM’s suffer bit rot, become in playable and in one case explode into shards in my DVD-ROM drive. And it didn’t take decades, most were <7 years old. Don’t be so sure you have decades.
