This is what never made sense to me about this argument.
Who exactly is forcing people to buy iPhones? How is the platform anti-competition when there’s loads of competition all around it, in equally as large numbers?
The walled garden has always been a feature, a selling point. And people choose to adopt it or not.
Can you explain better how the logic in your argument above goes, with that in mind?
Immediate wishlist. Hope VR support comes in the future!
Time to start /c/LemonParty as a replacement for /r/gonewild
Holy shit! I did not see that coming. I just got the mainboard case to convert my fw13 so it can be stashed away on my homelab for some ancillary services. Assuming the price is right, I’ll have to consider grabbing one to put in my now-empty laptop! Very exciting.
Honestly… in my opinion hdmi needs to die. DisplayPort is superior in every way, especially when driving from thunderbolt/usb4. We are so close to one port for everything, even if we have to continue dongle hell for a while longer.
That’s still service.
#1 will be your best bet because the motivation comes free with something you’re more passionate or engaged with such as a personal project. And, on the mirror side of that, reproduce existing programs/applets in a language of your choice. For example, an HTTP client or xxd.
Why’s that?
In my 2017 model vehicle, Bluetooth audio streaming is awful because the quality is noticeably worse and there’s a mysterious fade-out / fade-in when one song transitions to the next making it hard to listen to continuous albums (such as Random Album Title by Deadmau5, as an example). Seriously it’s the only Bluetooth playback connection I have ever experienced where that happens and there’s no way to fix it (common complaint among owners of this vehicle). What’s more, the screen is larger and has a nice dashboard for navigation, now-playing, and turn by turn directions on one big screen making it significantly easier to control the phone while driving. Add to that the lack of distracting apps available and no chance of accidentally tapping other apps makes it feel more focused and safe. My only gripe is that despite being WiFi enabled, my vehicle does not have wireless CarPlay so I have to plug in a cable after I mount my phone. Small price to pay though, after all these years of a significantly better experience.
Yeah definitely DO NOT regularly clean the filter if your machine has one. Never ever ever experiment with different amounts of detergent to determine the correct amount to use and absolutely NEVER be mindful of the orientation of the dishes as you load them.
Get over yourself.
They mentioned in their overview that independent 3rd parties can review the code, but I haven’t seen anyone go into that further. Pensively waiting for info on that tidbit from the presentation they gave.
Spoiler, we never stopped the first one.
It could be beneficial for densely populated areas, though. Because you have predictable airflow and low-hanging regions to implement physical capture and sequestering. We can do more than one thing at a time and targeted approaches combined with generalized approaches will yield faster results.
Tell that to the several 2-core 512mb Debian vms in my hypervisor. They have a purpose and they run perfectly fine!
And my 5G unlimited plan is $70/mo, but can go as low as $20/mo for 4G prepaid on my network. Seems reasonable to me.
For clarity, the reasonable part is that the pin network subscription is ~$20 here. Not that $20 for 4G is reasonable but that’s a different issue than what we are discussing specifically.
The subscription makes sense for having LTE access. That’s not really a problem nor hard to justify. Even the concept sounds pretty solid overall. But everything from price to execution was just wildly bad.
You… don’t know why people eat an incredibly cheap, filling, and tasty sandwich?
Memphis design will always win my vote. The weird ass electronics, the ground breaking UI components, just absolutely nutty decisions and insane product concepts built on everyone’s wild dreams of the future. I even think the same forward looking design concepts carried into the Y2K designs— particularly with personal electronics like phones.
But what does that matter when the platform has plenty of competition? This is what doesn’t make sense to me. Google chose to allow other app stores. That’s a feature of the platform. Apple chose to not allow sideloading or other app stores, again, as a feature.
Who is forcing people to use Apple devices?
Why doesn’t this extend to other platforms like Nintendo or PlayStation whose stores are explicit features of the platforms?
