Beans do be pretty good though.

I’m pretty sure it’s ridiculously hard to stop government projects in your backyard there. The best you can do is refuse to sell your land.

See here’s where this analogy is perfect. Sometimes a bicycle is the best solution, just like how sometimes a microcontroller is the best solution. You use the tool you need for the job, and American product design is creating way too many “smart” products just like how American town planning demands too many cars. Bring back the microcontroller! Bring back the bike!

WORLD’S. FASTEST. BULLETTRAIN. NETWORK.

A rail line that can handle a 280 foot piece of cargo would be heaven for high speed adoption with how straight it would have to be.

I want to be able to turn off those silly animations.

It limits the accessibility of the information, meaning that both terrorists and freedom fighters will be less likely to find it. YouTube suppresses age restricted material, whether they claim to or not.

He fucked himself over with some of the auction houses by trying to set up backroom deal to buy a gun outside of the auction. Understandingly they don’t appreciate that sort of thing. Ian has a history of not being a great person, but he’s good at hiding it from the public eye.

TRAAAAAIIIIIIIINS.

You know we can have one without the other if we campaign to make their invasion of our privacy illegal, right?

They’re not useful? I’m literally using one right now in a way that can’t be done on a dumb phone. Look, I love dumb phones, and I would actually have one if my lifestyle allowed it, but I get so much value out of my smart phone it’s just not practical to use a less capable device.

I mean, they’re extremely useful and cheap, if you buy the right one.

We each have our specialties, and it would be unreasonable to ask that everyone share yours.

“Accessibility service permissions” is a higher level of permissions than most apps get and Android will be all like “bro, are you sure you want to grant this app that kind of access and control? You really sure?” I’ve got a few apps on my phone with that level of permissions including one written by Google. They’d simply be unable to do their job without that level of access, jobs which have been straight-up good for my physical health. Ultimately there’s a balance between security and letting the user do what they want.

They are called tiles. I think that’s the official name, anyway.

Unless the person has said they think those things are cool or acceptable, why would you assume they were inconsistent about thinking brand idoltry was dumb?

I have come across a stranger online who looks exactly like me. We even share the same first name. We even live in the same area. I’m so excited for this wonderful new technology…

I get this feeling this will generally be the peak of generative AI. Used for assistance when needed and with lots of oversight. The problem is that not all people bother to check the AI’s work.

I’ve seen a 36 inch 3-color one, but I can’t find the supplier anymore. It’s used for signage. I honestly don’t know why this isn’t a bigger thing for signage.

Slightly smaller than the one I saw, but better colors.
