If you buy an electric mower, you never have to change the oil again. Or the spark plug. Or buy gas. Or clean the carburetor.

I don’t see how this is any different then standing behind someone who is typing and watching them type on a physical keyboard. If you allow someone to see you typing, there’s no security involved there.

That said, there should be an option (if there’s not one already) to turn off the creepy external googly eyes feature.

What made this happen? Shitty programming stuffed to the gills with unnecessary frameworks, JavaScript tracking nonsense and code spread among multiple servers all trying to render a simple grid of video thumbnails.

I don’t blame the programmers as much as the marketing droids that have ruined the internet at this point.

Reminds me of ICANN fucking up all the domain names.

CocaCola.com CocaCola.new CocaCola.drink Cocacola.world CocaCola.bev

Etc.

Shameful. One thing that might work for the fediverse is federal institutions running their own Mastadon instances on .gov to move away from announcements on Twitter. You can’t fake .gov domains.

That would be nice. That said, Pages exports to RTF and Numbers exports to CSV. These are standard interchange formats.

I can actually see the value in a trifold like the one pictured. In your pocket it’s a phone. When you unfold it, it’s an iPad. You’re consolidating devices.

That said, I’m not a fan of folding lcd screen tech used today. It creases. I’d rather see three separate bezel-less screens that magnetically join to make a larger surface.

Press and hold the back button. A lot of times this will show a history where you can select a page further back.

The worst is when people talk on their cell phones in the public restroom. No one wants to hear that on either end of the phone.

You have to wonder what idiot thought this was a good idea. It just means people will grab a soda and not pay for it.

No. We are not ok. About half of us have centered their lives around fuck you I got mine and let’s be cruel to everyone else.

Not going to be possible with the rate Twitter is going out of business and Tesla cars are stagnating.

You have to wonder how finewoven ever got out of preliminary testing. Were they always that poorly designed, or did someone change something at the last minute?

Sounds pathetic. I wonder how many product managers have been in charge of Apple News since it started?

Their Safari extension just stopped working. They reposted it under a new App Store entry. 🤷‍♂️🙄

So it’s currently 100 degrees F in my garage today. I’m sure it will only get worse as the summer goes on. I added some of those insulated garage door panels, but I don’t think they did anything.

Now I’m wondering if I should add fiberglass insulation to the attic space above the garage. Would this help, or just lock in the heat? Would using a radiant barrier up there work better?

Why has this been so difficult for Apple to accomplish?

Half the podcasts in my queue have suddenly become paid subscriptions. Meanwhile the overall industry is losing listeners. Seems like a lousy business model to not offer a free with ads feed. What a bizarre trend.

I would love to see the “lost” footage mentioned in this article. Would make a great expanded mini series for some streamer. I know after this flopped that a four hour version ended up in syndicated TV, but this article mentions there’s like seven hours of cut scenes!
