I still remember the shock when my father told me he had connected his laptop to the internet without a cable. I'd heard of wireless networking but didn't know it was a standard feature in laptops at the time and all you need is to find a wifi point.

Does that mean the quality of the voice calls in that era was better than later systems? Since it's logical to have loss of quality when a weak signal is amplified.

This is great news for the entire ARM ecosystem. The fact that ARM is now exceeding the best x86 CPUs marks a historical turning point, and other manufacturers are sure to follow suit.

How did you measure it?

I saved the page as mhtml and it was only 24.4 MB

It was moved to a new path so you have to create symlinks in both locations to the new path under /usr/lib/newlib1.2/newfile.so otherwise, You can download a script that will make that for you but it will only work if you have all the dependencies for that script installed and their version numbers match the ones that the script owner had when he wrote the script.

You are right but the fact that it will be harder to distinguish between human written and AI written text means that we will be looking for signs that indicate a human written text and will tend to prefer humanly mistakes over AI perfect tutorial.

There is an official download option inside the app. If they limit the download speed to the watching time, it won't be useful.

The page style doesn't look so bad even though it's using very simple HTML elements of the era. Just looking at it reminded me of the early days of HTML.

edit: It uses CSS which was invented in 1996 (according to Wikipedia). That means it was updated at a later date.

Add to this the ability to make it cross-platform executable[1] that has no dependencies to get the perfect file format.

I assume an integer field is sufficient since mostly it's only the year that they know not the exact date.
