Full self driving isn’t full self driving anyway. You’re expected to sit in the drivers seat ready to take action anyway. Sucks that it kills people, but it’s a problem with the marketing, not the tech which is comparable to other cars adaptive cruise with lane keep assist. Musk should be held fully responsible because the fact that it’s a marketing issue makes it even worse to me.
Supposedly the team left OwnCloud and forked it. So the value is that the OCIS team will be working on OpenCloud in the future.
I don’t think the general populace was particularly interested in buying 5000 dollar US made smartphones lmao
On the subject of those two anyway, I think Slimbook is just a Clevo reseller?
Not sure about Tuxedo
I was pointing out that it’s not only Apple users who pay out the ass for their phones. It transcends brand loyalty. Everyone is spending too much on phones and will continue to do so even if prices rise.
The Galaxy S series and the Pixel devices cost about the same tbh, with some of the foldable models being particularly expensive. Buying way too much phone isn’t exclusive to Apple users. Apple is just clever by not really providing an entry-level priced phone. It’s both a scumbag move to make more money, but also a way to make sure that inferior devices providing an inferior experience don’t ruin their rep.
IIRC the profit margins are no longer even close to what they used to be. They’re now estimated to cost between 400 and 700 dollars to make depending on the specs. Used to be what, 75 dollars?
The fact is, the hardware side is economically pretty comparable to high end Android devices. Those are going to go up in price and so are iPhones.
Google and Apple of course have the app store fees as a sweet source of income, so they have an advantage compared to Samsung.
And if you are American, get the fuck away from Google asap
The sad part is there’s almost certainly demand for an app that would let you remote start your car and use other built-in features without the associated tracking, but unfortunately the only way a 3rd party app can do it without installing an expensive 2 way alarm system or similar device, is by using the manufacturer’s APIs, which means the car has to be connected to the manufacturer :/
Owned by Google. Unfortunately it was never going to be without data collection.
Proton’s CEO is a fan of Trump and BlueSky is as American as apple pie. So is SubStack, it got series A funded by a16z, which nowadays is best known for its founder Marc Andreessen being an absolute shitbag.
Signal I’ll give a pass. It’s American, but a nonprofit. Mastodon is at least FOSS.
Do you make videos like “look I have a cool new stim” or record repeatedly hitting people only to claim it’s a stim when they react?
If not, you’re probably not the target of my statement re: stims
Most people are too lazy to switch to alternatives when docker works fine most of the time and has a huge community to get support from. What do you use?
Idk if it’s still going on but at least at some point, in some corner of the Tok, mental disorders were like little honor badges you could collect. People always showing off their stimming and whatever.
The worst one was always multiple personality disorder though. People referring to themselves as systems, having 100s of alters and getting new ones every now and then.
It sucks because it diminishes the realness of different disorders in people’s heads.
Money IS the ideology.
Unfortunately the solution is to use a binary package for your gender, which puts you in one of a few common configurations, rather than letting you customize.
Look, I have a suggestion that will change your life. You can never live another way again.
Go buy 10-20 pairs of socks, all same. When you get a hole in one sock, you only throw away the one sock. You never have to worry about mixing and matching. If you’ve got two socks, they count as a pair.
I’m not even matching my keycaps to socks, nor wearing anything special, I just found a specific pair of socks I liked and I’ve bought heaps over the years.
Oh I meant in that Atom was sunsetted to make way for it mostly.
That agency apparently creates new safety regulations but doesn’t do oversight. I think that’s up to the courts? Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
