It has co-op, which with this patch now works between consoles and PCs.

It's not even necessarily the ISPs that are doing it. In many cases they don't like this because their users start getting blocked on websites; it's bad actors piggy-packing on legitimate users connections without those users' knowledge.

There are residential IP providers that provide services to scrapers, etc. that involves them having thousands of IPs available from the same IP ranges as real users. They route traffic through these IPs via malware, hacked routers, "free" VPN clients, etc. If you block the IP range for one of these addresses you'll also block real users.

When I worked for a startup we'd sometimes go out for lunch and everyone would have a drink or two. We also kept beer in the office fridge but that was reserved for more Friday afternoons.

Yes but there are ways to protect against that. For instance you can configure Tailscale clients to only trust nodes that have been signed by trusted nodes, or something like that.

Hmm maybe, it was noticeably improved after 9 months for me.

I'm on Venlafaxine and the sexual dysfunction side effect does subside over time (months), at least that was my experience.

I'm worried about Framework over-extending themselves with so many different products that each require a different set of parts. It's sure going to hurt the brand if in a few years they start discontinuing product line-ups with no upgradable path forward. For instance they didn't announce any new upgrades for the 16.

It's not soaring demand but cratering supply that's spiking prices. Millions of chickens were culled due to bird flu and so there's an egg shortage.

Worth noting the US seems to be harder hit than other countries because of how densely they pack hens together.

I do agree that it'd be niche, but if they are able to re-use the existing mainboards it could be an 'easy win' for them. I too would much prefer a smartphone.

My guess is a hand-held console like the Steam Deck? People have already built them using the 13's mainboards and the newer integrated graphics on these are better than the Steam Deck. Bonus points if they aren't introducing a new mainboard at all but rather just the screen / chassis / joysticks for a handheld that uses the existing mainboards.

I think as a young child I had a banana flavoured oral antibiotic drink drug for an ear infection.
