The reports say that this change was made to prevent employees from “going rogue” and sabotaging the platform after Elon Musk’s $44 billion purchase of the company. Currently, a vice president must approve any changes. "And you can't change that, no, no"

I'd be happy to sell you as many imaginary ones as you want. Of course, good friends aren't cheap, so I'll need an advance...

E Ink has just announced its next-generation color ePaper panel, and it’s a major update for the nascent technology. Just the thing for playing DOOM, very slowly
Easier on the eyes this way.

I do not understand it. What's the point of this technology when we have tablets... ? Eyeing comfort ?
|
|
|
|
|
I don't get the joke. Is there any?
I mean, tablets as we know them need some sort of display. Maybe CRTs are not the future of displays after all?

No, genuine question from me. See below.

It makes a whole lot of difference believe me. I am an avid reader and reading out of an e-ink reader is just like reading a paper book, except that is lighter, font can be made bigger or smaller and a single reader can hold thousands of books. Batteries last an eternity too, I can get easily 2 weeks out of my outdated (almost 8 years old!) Kobo when I read 16 hours straight per day, otherwise it just lasts longer than I can remember, and it charges extremely fast with an old style charger.
I discovered e-ink when I saw a man on the subway reading a piece of cardboard for 5 minutes straight, before noticing that it was magical cardboard with changing letters. I've been deeply in love with my e-ink reader ever since.
I also read on tablets (Kindle Unlimited is my newest addiction and it doesn't run on Kobo) and the difference in eye relief is staggering. Next e-reader I will bite the bullet and buy a Kindle, if I can't find any alternative Kobo OS with a Kindle Unlimited app.

OK, thanks for your post, it made me realize the difference in technology - I do not know why, but I somehow assumed these readers were only cheap monochrome tablets used only for displaying book pages.
Just googled a few of the keywords and came across this[^], maybe interesting for you.

I used to assume that too, until I saw them and found grace. Ok I might be a little too theatrical or a little too obsessed with reading but it has been a life changer for me (and a source of annoyance for my wife).

Power use is the biggest advantage of eink; because it works by pushing pigments around it only draws power when updating. In smaller sizes the main target for color eink would be graphic novels; larger models could replace the banks of large monitors/TVs used as digital signs.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Tech wages are rapidly rising, according to a new breakdown in The Wall Street Journal. That potentially complicates things for managers who need to hire new technologists on a limited budget—but it’s also good news for those technologists with the right combination of skills and experience. Oh, to be a Quantum Cloud UX Architect Analyst...

For us automotive / industrial embedded developers the struggle is real. Laboratories and factories are by nature few and sparse, and no, I can't park a test vehicle in my living room.

Quote: The employees with these devices will continue to run Windows 10 in parallel and get a Windows 11 device at their next device refresh," said Microsoft's Lukas Velush in a blog post. So they will buy the rest of us new machines in 2025?
