At least Popular Science is intended to be fantastical at times. Newsweek just pretends... At anything
Because they're different than a laptop, desktop, phone, with different capabilities and limitations.
Why are you using Lemmy when reddit works better?
(By "better", I'm sure someone could make arguments why reddit works better for them, that would make as much sense as OP's opinion on "better" regarding these devices).
Or more simply, your opinion is just that - your opinion.
Yea, that thing would've gone out in the next trash collection.
"Oh, it broke". Actually, no, it would've never come in my house. I'm pretty up front about not allowing such invasive bullshit.
Depends on the washer.
Mine doesn't have a filter, just a macerator. I still have to clean it once a month, filters are even worse. Dishwashers in general are nasty things.
And mine uses 4 gallons per full wash cycle.
Oh, no, I can't use the McDonald's app!
Can't remember the last time I spent money on McDonald's over priced crap.
If nothing else can you use the browser?
I've used Hermit for years to present websites like an app, and am using Native Alpha on my new phone.
Use a browser like Native Alpha or Hermit, which present a website like an app.
And if you use Bitwarden/Vaultwarden for your passwords, it can be pretty seamless.
How'd she get it past US security? Which airline permitted her to check it through to Australia?
The US certainly did use it.
Today though, it's known as American Customary Units, which are similar to Imperial, but there are differences.
You forgot "and we continue to use Imperial and archaic things like 'stone' " too.
Yep, everything has a place. And if I need the same tool for 2 different things, each project box gets it's own tool.
I've also started using a shopping list app to organizer containers/toolkits/project kits, etc (Anylist). I can create many lists (but I keep it to a few), and I make sure to label each container/kit, and add pictures to the list items.
Yep.
And there have been examples of camera disruptive devices that use IR and while it can work, it's problematic and inconsistent.
We don't call it autoincorrect for nothing! 🤣
Zero Tolerance is part of the issue.
Funny how we didn't see these school shootings before ZT.
You don't understand or you refuse to acknowledge this is a back door into your device an Apple is actively scanning your files meaning your device is now compromised.
Or are you shilling for anti-privacy?
My device, my files. I don't want your scanning.
What's so hard to grok about that unless you are anti-privacy?
Add the battery and you get free shipping, so it actuly costs $1 less!
Nice find, thanks!
One of the ones not making the stupid duck face.
Maybe one of the ones who are genuinely smiling.
I doubt it distributes facial recognition at all.

Project LibertyTM is leading a movement of people who want to take back control of their lives in the digital age by reclaiming a voice, choice, and stake in a better internet.
From their About page: >Project Liberty is stitching together an ecosystem of technologists, academics, policymakers and citizens committed to building a people-powered internet—where the data is ours to manage, the platforms are ours to govern, and the power is ours to reclaim.
I just heard Frank McCourt on a podcast plugging his book "Our Biggest Fight".
It was great to hear someone with a voice talking about the problems we see with user data and social media, especially the problem of the Social Graph (the map of all your social connections, which includes weights and values).
Their solution to this problem was to develop a social networking protocol that enables any compliant app to use (think how email works - a standard protocol, SMTP), but encrypted and user data controlled by the user. They call it DSNP - Decentralized Social Networking Protocol.
I see both sides of their approach, I'm kind of ambivalent, lots of concern here long-term.
They've already acquired MeWe and have converted some users to this protocol. He wants to buy the US side of TikTok (if it becomes available) and convert it to DSNP, which would encrypt about 30 million US accounts.
I'm always cynical about stuff that sounds promising, but I don't have the tech background to really dissect what they're doing. Anyone understand this better?
I have no idea where to even start to combat such things. Healthcare professionals must appease the masses of their peers.
I've seen this first hand in the corporate world, where it's called a 360 review. It's a popularity contest.
While there's value in the idea of such reviews, they're ripe for abuse. It codifies an environment of dishonesty - where people who are good at masking (err, sociopaths anyone) excel.
