The only dock that's actually as advertised with all the bells and whistles is made by Caldigit.

It's ungodly expensive, which sucks, but it has been 100% flawless for my M1 MacBook Pro and M1 Mac Mini for at least a year now.

A UK clinic designed for treating video game addiction, originally expected to help just 50 people a year, has had more than 850 referrals since its inception in 2020.

850 game addicts across 2-3 years is pretty small potatoes. Wonder how many alcoholics and gambling addicts there are in that area.

That's what happens when you put so much effort into masking

"Hot Rod", "Accepted", or "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"

What do you call it when you're the opposite of this?

I 100% recommend TWIT, best tech podcast I listen to.

I usually listed at 1.2x speed with gap skipping on, because they can talk a bit slow.

Really great for weekly overviews of tech news, and excellent guests.

This kind of thing (and e-waste in general) is why I think we need radical laws about unsupported hardware in general.

If an electronic device (phone, laptop, etc) stops receiving software support, the most recently available firmware should be made freely available under public domain.

Apple is obviously the worst offender, but it's just horrible when you have really great hardware that's 100% worthless just because the software is unsupported and proprietary.

The number of iPads, smart home products, and other devices that become e-waste every year is unsustainable. If companies were forced to release the code for free when they stopped supporting devices, maybe they would support them longer. Or at least bother innovating for a change.

What about the infinite marathon runner from Stan Lee's Superhumans show?

Dude could run indefinitely with no wear-down, and they found he wasn't producing lactic acid like everybody else.

Is that really not related?

As someone who did some UX for a touchscreen product in Healthcare, it's 100% just boring old capitalism making real work impossible.

Any time immediate profit is put above the company "Mission Statement" (which is every time) it becomes impossible for designers to do a good job.

I was working with a broken and 90's looking UX/UI and made a modernized Material 3 style redesign that never even got full evaluation because it "wasn't a priority".

They'd regularly recognize UX problems and ask for the best solution. I'd research, test, and design options, explaining how I got there, and then a non-designer from an unrelated department would say some nonsense and we'd scrap the whole thing.
