- The semi-custom Ryzen APU in the new Surface Laptop 3 is barely custom at all. (AnandTech)
It has Vega 11 graphics like the desktop APUs instead of Vega 10 like the high-end mobile APUs, and that's about it. Standard DDR4-2400 memory too.
- Microsoft's Surface Duo is a dual-screen Android phoneblet with a 180° hinge. (AnandTech)
Not as seamless as the Galaxy Fold but probably more robust. Each screen is 5.6", and it's powered by a Snapdragon 855, but precise specs aren't available yet.
- The Internet of Insecure Pieces of Crap (IoIPoC) strikes again. (TechDirt)
- I still call Australia home. (TechDirt)
I don’t know what the mushy-headed vegans think, or why they think, but they better get this through their mushy heads: that we're changing the law in a substantial way that spells trouble, big trouble, for anyone who goes trespassing on agricultural land with the intention of disrupting agricultural production.

IoPoC: reminder: ring door cams goes to extraordinary lengths (in the US, anyway) to convince users to give the videos to the police, including what I would consider possibly-unethically coaching police in how to ask users.

Hmmm. "The problem is that the definition of "inclosed lands" is far wider than just farms." Quibble about whether "inclosed" is an archaic word or not, I don't really see the problem with "the definition is wider than farms". Oh noes, all lands delineable by a wall or other feature, whether natural or artificial, fall under the rule, if I read that correctly.
Whether the law as a whole is a good idea or not is another issue, IMO. Trespass laws are probably fine for deterrence--as long as they're not toothless.

Land AND other feature. If there's a fence or wall on, say two sides and a cliff and river on the other two it counts.
The way its described could be broad, or it could be awfully specific.

Going back and re-reading it, I think it's "by a fence" or" partially by a fence and partially by natural features like ariver", where I'm being lazy when I say "fence".
In any event I mainly meant that I'm not sure if "the definition is much wider than farms" is the most important sub-issue.
