Looking at the comparison btw M class machines and the Minisforum MS-R1 that is the same chip, I'm not sure Apple is being proved wrong here.

How is CIX CP8180 the same chip as any of the Apple M chips?.

Also, a very different approach to GPU.

Toyota Sienna == Toyota Highlander

It's all the exact same chassis, drive, suspension, pretty much you name it except the doors and body style. So that's not quite true...

I eagerly await being able to play it on Steam and iOS/Play. =)

Ok fair, but in that case isn't it missing the words "I think" prepended to the factual assertion.

As in: I think it's missing the words "I think" from that statement. (Which is educated speculation on the statement that has yet to be rigorously explored)

40% is a rounding error? I hope not ;) (edit, fine 34%... but I'll say THAT might be a rounding error grin)

I said specifically it's not a rounding error. You would, at minimum, round to the nearest hundred million years, which was done.

No. First, if the best known number is 66 mya, why throw away almost all the precision and call it 100 mya?

Second, the number it was being compared to in roenxi's comment was 9 million years, not 4 billion years.

So, yes, it is in fact a rounding error.

;-)

As numbers get bigger the amount of rounding gets more acceptable. 100 to 101 is as 1e100 to 1e101, despite te latter technically being off by 90%.

I think 100mya is perfectly fine. It doesn't undermine the point and this isn't trivia I plan to remember more accurately than that.

Huh, I just disabled it in Preferences and kept on rolling. This is the other viable option: Settings->Pointer->General and disable cmd-click opens filename/URL.

I enabled it because github's "turn this push into a PR" link is such a timesaver.

Yeah, that would be convenient. It feels like users do get the power to choose utility (enable) vs skeeved out (disable), which is all you can ask for =)

Completely unrealistic… more constructive to recommend melting them down and re-casting/machining =)

No updated release or new news at all here.

The Night Witches were fascinating to read about, thanks!

The Sabaton song about them is absolutely excellent, too.

You can buy little ESPHome devices that will speak it’s local serial protocol and control it. (And then link to them how you want)

It’s incredibly annoying and dumb and I now have to get some. grumble

You can just use a relay to open and close the door if that’s all you want.

Edit: no you can't, if it's the fancy one. You gotta hack a switch like this: LiftMaster 883LM Security+ 2.0 MyQ Door Control Push Button

Sort-of: the newer ones require the physical button to speak the same rolling code protocol the remotes do. So, yes: but you have to modify a real door opener. ratgdo has the advantage that it pretends to be said door opener.

There's often a pair of pins on the internal board that you can attach a relay to. Shorting the pins causes the door to close.

That sounds even dicier than modifying the wall switch, but sure :)

There is a part of me that wants to break the damn thing open to hunt for a 3.3V line so I can power the ratgdo without a USB PSU...

bummer! i had no idea it wasn't just a dumb switch! also super cool that they reverse engineered it. :)
