It’s not “a set of people” anymore it’s you, and there is always more data.
Buy some doughnuts for the office… your health insurance just went up.
You buy a new car which has fancy connected features, but now it sells your driving safety score to your car insurance company.
Buy a vegan ready meal, both vegan food companies and the meat industry compete for your business, you might get a few discounts, but your free will is being influenced.
The difference is when credit cards were introduced their business model was charging customers interest and businesses fees.
Now the business model is making customer profiles to sell to advertisers, insurance companies and anyone else who is willing to buy the data. I don’t want every business I use to be collecting all this information.
I guess you don’t read usernames
Just another person trying to belittle the passion of some guy on the internet.
This article is over 2 years old, so not exactly new news.
Just keep your phone for as long as possible and only upgrade when you absolutely have to.
There are no environmentally friendly options, but making sure your device is recycled at EOL, replacing your battery rather than your phone, and keeping it for as long as possible is the best you can do while still having the luxury of owning a phone.
You’re right I should have said “”accidentally””
If you overclock it and it starts to crash Intel say “sorry warranty void”, if Intel accidentally overclock it and drastically reduce its life “…”
I’ve not kept up to date with this but wasn’t the problem that as soon as you run these CPUs they are getting permanently damaged? Surely they have to recall them?
Some power tips…. F12 opens and closes the console window, and in Brave browser at least it remembers your last command so you can just press the up arrow and enter to run the last command. YouTube will reset to 2.0x on each new video as that is their highest value. There are browser extensions that can do all this for you but every new extension is another possible attack vector or potentially malicious party you are adding to your digital world.
Er… I’ve only ever tried 2.x-3.x.
All work… some creators speak fast and I’m limited to 2.8, but others I have at 3.5 or 3.8.
Not pushed it further than that but if you want to try 1.7*10^308 you do you my dude!
TBH it’s well worth the 30mins… or 15mins at 2x… or if your Chrome console-fu and listening skills are high enough just 10mins with “$(‘video’).playbackRate=3.0”
These devices always remind me of these guys trying to make Solid State Refrigerant:
I suspect they fall into the same category of “neat concept but commercially useless”
Just because you want it to be hot back there doesn’t mean we all do.
100% agree, we are in a far better situation now. I was really hoping he would be beyond reproach, and we could completely turn a corner on the the political sleaze, even if it is just a few suits and football tickets.
That does look familiar 🙂
I’m 99% certain I had this textbook at school.
I know you’re right, but if it wasn’t for Apple dropping iOS support the X is still a perfectly good phone. I’m seriously considering waiting another year and hoping my banking apps continue to work.
Ironically I did think about getting the Apple Watch X for the first time, but they all require a minimum of the iPhone Xs
The preferential treatment was that the body cams were just muted during the cover up and not all accidentally turned off for the entire encounter, not getting beaten up, tased or shot.
I mean as far as preferential treatment goes I’d take that deal, but the fact remains he was pulled out of his car, roughed up, taken to the floor and handcuffed for 18minutes for no reason when the cop should have been writing him a (dubious) ticket.
There are at least 2 cops here who should not be cops and the rest need to be retrained to ensure they step in if they see mistreatment like this again, for face being fired.
On the X and wondering if the Max is too much of a jump for me. Although it’s another year where I’m not really seeing a big reason to upgrade.
Big fan BTW, your lounge chairs are cool AF.
Credit card companies know where you are spending your money, but not what you are buying.
They have been selling your data but it’s less valuable in the world of store apps and online stores where every search and purchase is linked to your email. Still worth opting out of any “data sharing” options your Credit Card company has though.
