About 10 years ago, my usb drive was Fat32 by default. I changed it to Ntfs due to Fat32’s 4-GB cap. 1080p movies that were 4+ GB were getting more widespread then. I’m using Ntfs till now.

I’m awaiting the day a firm makes a practical quantum computer. I’ll be stoked on that day. Idk how folks will write programs for it or if the idea of “program” will apply to it at all. Will it make things faster? Like compiling code or frames per second in gaming?
👍 article. Firebricks may accelerate our transition to sustainable energy.
Was the tablet’s touchscreen as responsive as iPad’s? What was the operating system? If Windows, I can see how it failed. Previous versions of Windows were mouse-and-keyboard-first. I think Windows 8 was the 1st to truly consider touch and iPados was still better.
Microsoft had an Arm Surface device a few years ago. It had a 💩 chip.
Frequently unresponsive or very unstable apps shouldn’t have been in the Play store in the 1st place.
Anyway, to the Play store’s credit, I downloaded many bank apps and I never got a fake bank app.
Been using Samsung messages for years, not Google messages, but I just wanna comment.
I’m OK with it. It’s been an ai race. It’s natural that Google is taking advantage of the millions of Android phones and of the fact that many are using Google messages and Gmail. Adding Gemini to Google messages is sensible to me. I just hope it won’t be annoying.
Gmail has been my main email but I didn’t see Gemini in it. Maybe in the future?
These news articles support my idea that Google doesn’t care re privacy. I’ve been using a Samsung phone, which has Android. Android has permissions re cam, location, 🎙 and others, but I won’t be :o if Google can bypass all the privacy features if it wants my data.

We mustn’t enter any private info in a large language model (llm) in the 1st place. The conversations are probably used to train ai models.
There should be 2 disclaimers in any llm –
The llm’s responses aren’t always based on facts. It can say wrong info sometimes.
Users mustn’t enter any private info in the llm.
Yes, 👍 apps.
The issue with touchscreen kiosks is that some have short arms.
On another note, I get the benefits of computer-voice-operated drive-thrus. No need to use your phone. If your phone’s 🔋 is 3%, you can still buy food.
My Samsung a70 doesn’t get major software updates anymore. I’m OK with it. I’ll use this as long as possible.
1 of the 👍 points that were brought up was artificial gatekeeping. Many techies know it but I guess many non-techies don’t know it. Phone makers intentionally not putting the newest features on the old phones to boost the newest phones’ sales should be widely known. I wonder what the public opinion will be.
I like that the writer thought re climate change. I think it’s been 1 of the biggest global issues for a long time. I hope there’ll be increasing use of sustainable energy for not just data centers but the whole tech world in the coming years.
I think a digital waiter doesn’t need a rendered human face. We have food ordering kiosks. Those aren’t ai. I think those suffice. A self-checkout grocer kiosk doesn’t need a face too.
I think “client help” is where ai can at least aid. Imagine a firm that’s been operating for decades and encountered so many kinds of client complaints. It can feed all those data to a large language model. With that model responding to most of the client complaints, the firm can reduce the number of their client support people. The model will pass the complaints that are so complex or that it doesn’t know how to address to the client support people. The model will handle the easy and medium complaints; the client support people will handle the rest.
Idk whether the government or the public should stop ai from taking human jobs or let it. I’m torn. Optimistically, workers can find new jobs. But we should imagine that at least 1 human will be fired and can’t find a new job. He’ll be jobless for months. He’ll have an epic headache as he can’t pay next month’s bills.

I’m doubtful. I wanna hear more from security experts.
I’m OK with the ads. The coder didn’t put disappointingly many ads. And the few ads I saw weren’t annoying. I hope the ad $ has been a 👍 reward for the coder for making and maintaining Sync.
I <3 the user interface’s design. It’s Google’s design.
What do you mean? When I lurk here, I ignore the sites that Idk. I rely on sites that I know are legit like Verge, Techcrunch, Engadget, Cnbc, Bloomberg, Ars Technica and Electrek. The sites that Idk may be legit too but I don’t wanna spend much time researching the legitimacy.
The 3-nanometer thing was classic anticompetitive behavior right? Will the European union or the American government investigate Apple?
Tsmc surely is in a class of its own. The other Arm cpu makers are lagging.
I’m awaiting the M4 Macbook air. I wanna see the performance comparison between it and a Windows 💻 with a 2024 Intel cpu.
Huge blow to Huawei, which is a firm I dislike.
It seems they can’t buy x86-architecture processors from Intel and Amd. How can they make x86 💻?
If Windows arm will succeed in the far future (this is a big if for me), I wonder if Huawei can buy Mediatek chips for Windows arm 💻. I did a quick search. It seems Mediatek wanna design arm chips for 💻.
A Reuters article said Qualcomm licensed their 5g tech to Huawei. I guess not being able to buy from Qualcomm isn’t a big issue for Huawei. Huawei has their own 5g tech.
Exfat if you wanna use your usb drive on Macos or Linux.
I have Windows so I’m OK with Ntfs.
