My most common use for Google assistant was an extremely simple command. "Ok Google, set a timer for ten minutes." I used this frequently and flawlessly for a long time.

Much like in your situation it just stopped working at some point. Either asking for more info it doesn't need, or reporting success while not actually doing it. I just gave up trying and haven't used any voice assistant in a couple of years now.

Some people prefer it.

I maintain a small piece of Windows software and originally just provided an installer, but I received enough requests for it that now when I publish releases I provide both an installer and a zipped portable build.

...are you calling first person shooters "shmups"?

Your laptop uses an iGPU. The "i" stands for integrated, as it's built into the same package as the CPU.

The alternative, a dGPU, is a discrete part, separate from other components.

They're saying that your situation is becoming increasingly common. People can do the gaming they want to without a dGPU more easily as time goes by.

I'd argue that Li should be red and Hg should be yellow.

Elemental mercury in liquid form is fairly safe. It needs to get into your blood in order to be a problem, and even if some does stick to your tongue and get swallowed the digestive absorption is extremely low.

Mine does something similar but there's simply more pixels for it to float around in, so nothing clips. It's a 3440x1440 display, but the actual physical screen is something like 3460x1460 so the image can shift without clipping.

It is insane to me when people complain about the failure of a public service to turn a profit as if that's some kind of bad or unexpected outcome.

Services cost money to operate for the benefit of those using them. That is literally the point.

They'd need to charge amounts that families can afford for that to work.

must know Java, go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or rust

Depending on the division you ended up in at the company I work you might need one or more of MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, C#, TypeScript, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, VB.NET, Terraform, Groovyscript, or PowerBuilder.

But if they consistently win it still alter the political landscape such that someone else will have a better chance of enacting actual change in the future.

The two party system is garbage, but if one of the two current parties lost its ability to win entirely then a different second option could appear.

It would be a subset of "urban commercial", right? Somewhere in the range of half to three-quarters of it?
