Wired isn’t a shopping site?
There are so many flaws with your take I don’t even know how to reply.
I will just say that:
$3,500 is not a price that only rich people can afford, at least in the US. Many middle class folks can afford it with ease.
It isn’t Apple’s fault that YouTube has ads. That is Google’s doing. Apple themselves are privacy focused and I never see targeted ads on any Apple app. The only places I even see ads are in the app store and in the TV app, and the TV ads are limited to promos of upcoming shows or movies.
People are constantly bashing Apple for their premium prices and walled garden while forgetting that nobody is targeting the folks who want a privacy oriented experience without ads blasting everywhere.
I switched to iOS because I got tired of Google watching my every move and I got tired of worrying if every app I download from google’s app store has malware or not.
This doesn’t seem like a dickheaded move to me. First, it was a C&D letter, which has no legal status, and second, the stalker thing is a legitimate concern, especially since the MAGA camp is all riled up about her.
I keep patties/fries in the freezer and have an easily accessible grill and air fryer for when that urge hits. The only thing I need to get is the buns.
We rarely eat at McDonald’s these days. The prices pushed us out along with the poor quality food.
Is it easy to get a copy of their dataset?
There are hosting providers that offer unmetered bandwidth.
Sure, setup complexity is higher, but it is definitely doable.
I have thought about such a project as I also have access to relatively inexpensive 20gbps fiber, but lack the funding currently to do it.
Maybe one day…
Nah, the deck will pop up the portal automatically in most cases.
I have never had an issue with alternate wifi networks, traveling or not.
This could be another indicator that we are going into recession. I did not read the article (because who does that? 🤣) but when you look at rising credit card debt combined with the mass layoffs, it usually means folks are on their last legs, financially speaking.
That is assuming there actually is a problem with higher credit card debt and the topic is ‘t being sensationalized, of course.
Another indicator to watch out for is falling revenue in earnings reports. Falling revenue, particularly in retail and consumer goods spaces means recession is inbound.
I firmly believe that, absent some additional support, we will enter a recession within 2 years.
Note: I don’t claim to be an economist, but I am old and I have lived through a few of these downturns.
No we didn’t. I happily left reddit the day Apollo stopped. They also lost my premium subscription.
I also stopped Twitter when musk took over. I use Bluesky or Mastodon and find both platforms to be superior.
Sure, some folks may have, but many of us have not. Does that matter to Reddit? probably not. Do I care? not really.
Modern Reddit is unusable, and old reddit isn’t mobile friendly.
For me, things were pretty easy/quick to set up, and the benefit? Lower electric bills. More convenience.
From what I have been reading: Evidence suggests Russia was lying. Examinations of the crash site revealed no signs that a large number of people on board like Russia claims.
I am willing to bet it had missiles and the entire story was made up by Russia to:
They make you use the app to get the advertised features. Hyundai/Kia are terrible about this.
Oh and the entire implementation is half-assed. I bought my Hyundai used and can’t even use the paid features because they won’t transfer the account to me.
I actually like Hyundai, but I will never again purchase one of their vehicles because of subscriptions and what I mentioned above.
Are you in the US? Are you insured? You need to find another therapist. Since the pandemic, many insurance companies have improved services in this area. For example, mine eliminated copays and doubled the number of allowed visits. They also brought on a bunch of additional therapists.
Social Security should be reformed. The surplus should be given back and laws passed that forbid touching it. Further:
Honestly, Social Security should also be responsible for paid sick/family leave, short term and long term temp/perm disability, unemployment, etc. We in the US could have it so much better…
On the contrary.
Called it.
Down the slippery slope we go…
Before long republicans won’t be on the ballots for democratic states and democrats won’t be on the ballot in republican states.
Guess what happens next?
You don’t even need a thought experiment. The hard data is there. Police in my are, for example, cut enforcement by more than 60% back during the pandemic. Crime and civil violations shot through the roof to the point of chaos. I don’t remember the exact number, but it got bad, ignore the fact we already have some of the highest gun crimes in the country… They finally stepped up enforcement a bit the middle of last year and crime dropped measurably, but it is still higher than 2017-2018.
I am sure this has been a familiar thing across many cities.
