I can't wait. As long as they keep the autotiling feature working as well as it does now I'm down.

I didn't realize it was that recent of an addition to the NEC. Weve only lived in super old houses where everything was always needing completely redone. I was usually replacing 2 conductor and cloth-jacketed stuff everywhere.
That was around 2012 and I remember the electrician we hired at the time mentioned it being a thing so that makes sense.
This is pretty much my setup anyway. I run Pop Shell on top of Fedora and add dash to dock.
I'm just absolutely hooked on the autotiling built into pop shell.
If its an official spin all the better.
Current national electrical code in the US (since the 1980s) is a neutral in every switch box. Before then a switch loop was allowed so you see a lot of older construction with those.
You also see newer construction with those where Uncle Dave™ decided it was easier to only have to run a wire down from the light rather than fish it up through the crawlspace, NEC be damned.
Hey at least you won't have to sign in anymore just to get automatic driver update checking.
There have been some smaller ISP outages in my area too.
There was a recently disclosed giant problem with DNSSEC that was suppossed to have been mitigated but I wonder whether certain DNS providers haven't been able to patch yet.
TLDR: Android 15 is going to keep the Android System Webview ram-resident at pretty much all times so that when an app needs a "web popup page" it will load significantly faster.
Here is an article from Android Central detailing how the component works at relatively high level.
It is amazing. I love how easy it is to mount network shares with it too.
We had an older Hitachi tv with 4 HDMI plus component plus RCA input and 4 different options for audio input.
New Samsung TV. 2 HDMI, that's it. One is ARC which is the only audio interface besides TOSLINK so really theres effectively 1 HDMI to use.
But of course all the lovely ~~spyware~~ smart features more than make up for it.
This is the sort of thing that to me highlights the inherent inefficiency of proprietary software and processes.
"Oh sorry, you'll need our magic hardware in order to run this software. It simply can't happen any other way."
Turns out that wasnt true which of course it isn't.
Imagine instead of everyone could have been working together on a fully open graphics compute stack. Sure, optimize it for the hardware you sell, why not, but then it's up to the "best" product instead of the one with the magic software juice.
Selling to Netflix? Psssh. The real money is in is releasing films in cardboard-cased DVDs at truck stops and dollar stores.
I was genuinely convinced they offered 10gig service in some markets. Doesn't surprise me that its all marketing nonsense.
Just a tip for anyone who wants to know, if you have Comcast business internet they'll tell you you have to use their modem but, you can swap it out with a 3rd patty modem and use the live chat service to get it activated. Then you can send back their modem for free at a ups store. Every salesperson will tell you its not possible but it absolutely is.
