They aren’t necessarily US specific. Wages not keeping up with inflation and rising cost of living is a factor from South Korea to Japan to Singapore as well. Some countries muck it up themselves like China with their one child policy back in the day (even the Chinese fertility rate has dipped below 2.2, I think).

Wear OS is pitiable. My previous GW 4 40mm had 247 mAh battery and barely lasted a day with AOD on. Plus the charging was so slow. Even with Samsung’s latest Galaxy Watch Ultra, it has lesser endurance that what Tizen based Frontier had.

Huh, I am hearing this source for the first time. I mostly used Mobilism and most of the apps from there used to come clean on Virus Total as well.

I think these guys might be able to hack through the process and get stuff done and think getting other people to follow them will be trivial as well. But just because they didn’t mess up, doesn’t mean other people won’t. A large majority might end up hurting themselves if they follow in their route.

Isn’t medical tourism a thing in the US too; like you can fly to a developing country, get your treatment done by top specialists there and fly back to US and the cost would still be lower than what it would have taken to do in home country.

I just wrote it because it rhymed with the now memed 2004 anti piracy announcement You wouldn’t download a car that was rightfully criticized.

My city is already unlivable in summers with temps crossing 45C this time. If the site’s projection is true, it will probably become Death Valley in 2080.

Everything is a streaming service now. I like to think of even Peloton first as a content driven business and second as a hardware seller.

There is the unwanted Glance software on Android, usually preloaded on budget models that displays random wallpapers (read:ads) on Lock screen but nothing equivalent on Apple.

Microsoft should permanently recall the Recall feature.

Worse, if you go to their articles via their newsletter, it redirects to aws.me domain in the middle which uBlock Origin blocks. You need to manually allow that subdomain to let it run. Plus, they now and then nudge you to create a free account to read more articles.

Oh, did I mention there is a Premium tier of their site as well? Ironical that as the site’s editorial quality is coming down, the shittiness is increasing. I think originally one guy used to run it and write articles there. It was relatively frugal (compared to the churn of articles that they process today) and higher quality.

Which distro are you on? Plasma has reached it’s 6.0 version I think now. I used it back in the day and KDE apps are really more powerful than their GNOME counterparts.

Talking about consistency, technically Windows still has UI elements from 3.1 era at Atleast couple of obscure places.

It’s a shame. This was the case with both their previous watches as well.

I use NewPipe only despite having a current YouTube Premium subscription because the official app is bonkers. It’s hilariously stuffed with useless features that can’t be toggled off(games, shorts), half baked stuff like specific video quality can’t be chosen for all videos by default( has to be on a per video basis). Oh, and every other time I visit some channel, asking me to join the YouTube’s channel for additional perks. You just took money from the user to give them a sub par experience.

How will Daily Mirror remember I paid if they are not storing any cookies for me as they promise? Also,asking to pay just for valuing your privacy, I don’t assume this payment will lead to removal of ads or any more exclusive benefits.

Musk has called the Moraes’ decisions regarding X “unconstitutional.”

Who would know more about Brazil’s constitution? One of its Supreme Court Judge or Elon Musk?
