Not quite, I don't think. Enshittification is driven by profit motive, which means if there's no money at all involved, then there's no motive.
I guess you chose your words carefully though because the terms 'product' and 'service' pretty much imply that money is involved somewhere there.
Totally. There's really no point in using anything /except/ per capita!
The worrying truth is that we are all going to be subject to these sorts of false correlations and biases and there will be very little we can do about it.
You go to buy car insurance, and find that your premium has gone up 200% for no reason. Why? Because the AI said so. Maybe soneone with your name was in a crash. Maybe you parked overnight at the same GPS location where an accident happened. Who knows what data actually underlies that decision or how it was made, but it was. And even the insurance company themselves doesn't know how it ended up that way.
What don't you like about Signal?
I've never been able to understand the mentality of individuals who find it "fun" to damage and destroy things. What about this is entertainment?
Can't get my head around it.
Yes, we've known this for ages already, it's nothing new. Return to office is about the office, not about the people.
Exactly.
If you have a workplace culture where you're emailing backwards and forwards calling the customers names and that's seen as totally acceptable workplace 'banter' then of course it's going to go wrong sooner or later.
The blame is equally as much on the management for allowing and normalising that behaviour, and the tribunal recognised that.
Kinda wild that you could patent a super basic mechanic that pretty much anyone could come up with
Although, these stats are people who would consider giving up cars, among those who currently own one.
People who don't need a car and already don't have one won't appear in these figures
If you imagine the perfect fictional country, then for that country the bar chart should theoretically be at 0% - because that would mean everyone who doesn't need a car doesn't have one, and anyone who does own a car needs it very strictly for jobs only a car can do, no matter how good the transport infrastructure and planning and zoning are.
Yeah but there's clunky in the way where its big but still a single unit as designed and intended, and clunky when its got some extra growth hanging off the back of it like some technological parasite.
Of course, my advice is only that, and you should choose the approach that works best for you. But advice is why you came here right :)
I have a portable monitor that I'm pretty pleased with.
It has a magnetic cover that goes over the screen to keep it safe, and that same cover folds and goes on the back to act as a stand when it's in use. Power and video are via the same USB-C cable.
Nice and slim and stays in my bag most of the time but when I want a second screen I can whip it out in two secs.
A screen that attaches to the laptop sounds convenient initially, but I feel like in practice it would be a hindrance and make your laptop clunky and bulky.
Never have I felt so emotionally invested in the wellbeing of an anime character as I have for this girl.
In the UK at least, mobile phone ownership per household was only 16% in 1996 and didn't reach 50% until the year 2000.
To have a phone in '92 you'd need to either be wealthy or have it through a company for business.
My dad had a phone in 95 for work and it was an absolute brick.
As for mobile internet, that wasn't really a thing until smartphones happened with the iPhone. Yes we had WAP and other precursors to the full internet but it was awful and nobody used it, ever. In 2007 I was a geeky nerd at uni doing Comp Sci and had a Windows Mobile PDA in a belt holster, with full internet! But most people didn't have Internet until about 2009-10
