Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

SI remember when people said that people would never have their own personal computers in their house as well. Honestly, I do not understand the train of thought behind your argument.

I've seen the press release — it explicitly and repeatedly references the MacBook Neo. Between that and having Neos on hand at the showcase, it's pretty clear Dell is nervous about Apple and wants you to talk about how much better the XPS 13... -

He needs to temper his enthusiasm, but he has a point: at first glance, Dell knocked this one out of the park. You know it's confident when it actually has MacBook Neo units at the event to help with comparisons. Dell's main obstacles are the...

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip.What a bizarre review. Every other sentence mentioned MacBook Neo. Not a single word about any of the laptops the XPS 13 actually competes with… you know… Windows laptops. Just Neo Neo Neo again and again. Then there was this amazing line...

This laptop is very similar to other Windows laptops in this price range. I see nothing that makes this stand out, even if you love Windows.

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip.Yeah, it's not really my speed. Seems better suited to the sort who whine about Apple products and any positive press coverage of them, for months on end, in an online discussion forum. That sort of person would find this Honor laptop deeply...

And a signifcantly crappier display, build quality, trackpad, and speakers with no Apple ecosystem (which in itself is a selling point).

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Meta’s Embrace of A.I. Is Making Its Employees Miserable.Sadly no but I don’t need to work for money any longer. It’s more about the fun of solving complicated problems these days. And these tools let me solve more and more complicated problems.

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Is Paralells stable enough to run Windows on Mac as a daily driver?.A Studio is a rather powerful and expensive piece of kit - congratulations! I echo what some others have said - if you can sell it, it might be worth doing so. In your shoes, the reason to keep it would be to have a world class platform for...

I was going to post this exact thing in response to the previous posts about tests vs other windows laptops and chromebooks. You can point to 20 bad competitors, and say you should test vs these other 5 models, but how is a normal person going to...

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Meta’s Embrace of A.I.

Four years later he’s tearing down government because it spends too much. Who know where we’ll be in...

You know, even some conservatives are starting to talk about how maybe AI should be nationalized in order to protect the citizenry... It's a weird time we live in.

Ssphinx99 replied to the thread Meta’s Embrace of A.I. Is Making Its Employees Miserable.Yeah it’s just another tool. And like all tools, some can learn to use it effectively and others will hurt themselves. The same people who mess things up with AI would lose a limb if handed a chainsaw or a finger if handed a bandsaw.

Yeah, AI is just another tool. It can be extremely helpful if you use it right, but it may not always be useful for what you're doing. It can also be destructive if you use it wrong just like any other tool. The last place I worked they were...
