Yeah. For example, the same Netflix account is used even if you switch tvOS profiles.

I requested my data three days ago and got "Raw Data" and "Phased [...]" early today. Still waiting for the last set.

You're talking about FPGA tools but this thread is about VLSI design where the major EDA vendors (Synopsys, Cadence, and Mentor) don't sell hardware(*) and *do* make a lot of money from software.

(*) Excluding emulators or simulation accelerators.

I happily used my Unicomps for more than 15 years. They're still fine but I got a Model F reproduction a couple of years ago. It's much more expensive but the feel is even better!

I'm pretty sure my 2017 Macbook Pro (Intel, no Touch Bar) doesn't have a Secure Enclave chip, yet it supports Passkeys.

You'd save the QR code at the time you first used it on the old phone, and not wait for when you needed to transfer it.

For me, I'd usually be on the desktop when setting up 2FA anyway, so I'd just save the QR code from the desktop browser ("Save image as ..."). When I needed to set up a new phone, I'd open the saved image on the desktop and point my phone at the screen.

I've been using Emacs for more than 30 years and my init file is mostly loading and configuring extra packages, and not customizing the editing behavior. I have no problem working in a basic "emacs -q" session (which skips loading the init file) when I don't want to "pollute" my main session (eg. working with huge logs/dumps).

Sony's streaming service (Bravia Core) recommends >100Mbps for their highest quality streams:

https://electronics.sony.com/bravia-core

To access highest quality Pure Stream available at 80Mbps you must have a minimum internet speed of 115Mbps over Wi-Fi. Ethernet (wired LAN) connections are limited to 100 Mbps due to the TV’s product specifications. Therefore, to enjoy 80 Mbps with Pure Stream functionality, you need to connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi (wireless LAN) that supports minimum IEEE 802.11 n/ac.

MythTV was the reason I bought and assembled my first x86 PC. I even bought a copy of Red Hat Linux 8 Personal (before Fedora) to run on it. That system became my main desktop PC and is still running more than 20 years later -- like a Ship of Theseus, with every hardware and software component upgraded multiple times. I'm not a progammer but I wanted to help fix bugs and add features, so it was also the reason I learned C++ and MySQL.

I still use MythTV (with additional PCs as backends and frontends) to record Comcast digital cable with HDHomerun Cable Card tuners. It also serves my small library of music files and can play DVDs and BluRay discs. I've ripped 4k UHD BluRay discs using MakeMKV and MythTV can play the files but the colors are wrong since a lot of the plumbing needs HDR support.

Unlike the CPUs, I think the AMD APUs that support ECC (the "Pro" versions) aren't available through normal retail channels.

Times have changed. My TV (a 2018 Sony) needed a firmware update to support Dolby Vision. My receiver needed a firmware update to support eARC.

Messi was offside on the initial pass to Martinez (which you can't really see in the clip because of the close-up shot) but was back onside by the time Martinez passed it back to Messi (which you do see). So it's a good goal.

They did replay the entire sequence on the US Fox broadcast without the close-up.

Yeah, I've been using Gnus for more than 25 years, although I now use mbsync to download e-mail first. Before that, I used the original GNUS for Usenet and VM for e-mail.
