Try searching for some like "My mouse pointer is too small"

Incredible. 100% typical microsoft though. I'm a "veteran" windows/xbox developer and none of this surprises me.

Sounds very expensive.

Only like $400 million per fab.

Yes, "Mecha-hitler" has no aspirations. /s

Provide a way to show that your compiled code is what you say it is.

https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds

But where does the original compiler come from? Reproducible builds are only as good as the compiler used to compile them. That's the point of Trusting Trust. If you build with a backdoored compiler and I reproduce your build with the same backdoored compiler, that solves nothing. This is why full-source bootstrap is important[0].

It would be very very hard to actually accomplish something like that on mainstream x86/arm compilers. And hide it from every debugger in the world. If it diminishes the value of reproducible builds, it's by something like 1%.

Which is so so so much better than "as good as nothing".

And it's only bad when China does it, not the American company in question. /s

You can get TVs with a "PC slot" like the Sharp M431-2. Just need a Steam Slot.

That's only 60Hz though. Are there any dumb TVs with 120+ Hz VRR and HDR?

Is this an actual thing people can buy, or only companies?

I see one for sale at B&H Photo Video.

Banning companies above a size still allows a unhappy medium where only "small businesses" BUY the same horrible ads and we drop one or two Army or IBM ads from the lineup.

Not everything has to be black and white, there is middle ground for improvement. I'm not sure anyone loves the same MegaCorp™ ad plastered all over buildings, highways and stoplights.

The size, depth, and reach of the advertising industry is a direct result of the amount of money injected into it. The current ad industry is effective, awful, anti-competitive and resembles more of a cancer at this point than it's intended purpose to provide useful information.

No because small businesses arent hiring ad agencies who spent years studying psychology in order to manipulate people into doing what the company wants, not what the person wants. This is very much an issue of scale

That market is made when you ban "large companies" from making ads.

OK, so we need to include the effect of introducing a green house gas, water vapor, into the environment.

Yep that's why the US had slave markets instead of central planning. /s

I would expect larger groups of young children to require more even ratios of care takers. I don't know if 3 care takers per 12 children is enough for instance, but I've got a feeling 9 care takers for 36 children is not enough.

Depends on the state. My state is 1:3 for under 2, 1:6 for 2-3, and then 1:10 for 3-5. Presumably after that you're out of child care and into school. Ratios get more complex when it's a mixed group, but most childcare centers are going to have children separate based on age.

These ratios seem reasonable to me. Much better than the 1:25 in elementary school.
