How about an efficiency breakthrough instead? Our brains just need a meal and can recognize a face without looking at billions of others first.
Nuclear produces that 1 GW 24/7 and all year though. My solar panels vastly overproduce on most summer days and are worthless at nights and from fall to spring.
Would be great if somehow this patent was bought out and made public domain so people outside the upper middle class could have an affordable way to track their vitals.
Apple is a strange choice as a champion for that. Their devices always have been notoriously overpriced.
The company loaded it with whatever spyware they wanted and pushed it in an update. Now the app is garbage.
Wait what? I have it too and see no changes at all. How does it spy since the app has 0 bytes of traffic (now blocked it to be safe)?
nothing about android’s licensing could make it impossible to make it impossible to not lock it down
Sorry, I cannot decipher that. If you mean, this doesn't prevent phone makers to lock down their bootloaders: sure. But I just need to find one that doesn't and by an open source Android there will always be an image to flash. At least it's infinitely better than Apple's walled garden.
at least they allow you to use other app stores or even download them directly from the app developer.
The bigger one is that the base system is still open source. That ensures a baseline of freedom. Google services are so intertwined that it's hardly possible to really live without but it is. Imagine a de-appled iPhone.
My friends have YouTube/twitch. They’re extremely popular, in the 100k+ range. They all quit their job
That's surprising to me. Are 100k+ really enough to make a living?
I'm not a native speaker but always took it as short form for "go fuck yourself", not "I will fuck you".
Apparently, it's just 30 failed approaches of the same tool.
originally meant to threaten violent sexual penetration
Rougher times back then.
10/10 with salt sprinkled
That doesn't make sense. 5/7 already is the perfect score.
You cracked the case! Wait.. does that mean, some people on 4chan lie?!
Well, sure, all we both have is annecdata.
The notion to defend even the stupidest design decisions (mouse charging port on bottom) or attacking users who point those out or even just ask questions (saw multiple of those when I was looking for answers about my iPhone then, when I gave it a chance) is very common in English-speaking social media and forums (or at least those that I frequent).
I've personally never seen anyone defending Samsung or Huawei in that matter. That may be different in their home countries of course but I don't speak those languages.
To say that DadeMurphy is representative of most Apple fans is certainly an exaggeration.
That's true. My experience is only about vocal Apple defenders not the silent fans or critical users which are probably the vast majority.
I haven't seen this for any other corp though.
No Windows user cheers for Microsoft when they publish record revenue figures. They know, they paid for it.
No Android user defends phone makers if the new model has nothing new but costs 10-20% more.
But there isn't a thread or article about Apple without some commenters defending them. Regardless of the shit they pull.
Thanks for the decimal places on the percentage. Wanna be precise with that one.
That's what actual Apple fanbois sound like though. I believe it's a specific case of Stockholm Syndrome.
The original Prince of Persia, you mean?
