The materials needed to produce batteries and wind turbines and maintain them over time is the issue. Did your 62 page report discuss this?

Do those things give you DJ and radio options? I’m too lazy to go find the songs I want. I’d rather just let the app put on tunes and learn what I like based on feedback and behavior.

About 90 min according to my settings screen time. Looks like it divides into ~10 sessions throughout the day, each lasting 1-15 min.

I hardly use mine. I bring it with me on plane rides but find myself just watching movies instead. Trying to play on a plane and having to share an arm rest, idk it works out better in my head than in practice.

I find I really need to play a game consistently to stay interested, and that makes the deck hard cuz I reserve lighter games for it, like ori, but since I play so infrequently I don’t really end up being interested in the game I startup on there.

OTOH I play PC regularly, no battery concerns, much larger screen, better visual fidelity. The deck just isn’t reinforcing enough.

Why is it a subway sandwich?

There are a lot of good cops. ACAB is about pointing out that they all might as well be bastards because enough of them are that people don’t feel safe around them.

But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have police. We need much harsher penalties for misconduct, external investigations into misconduct, and better training to avoid misconduct in the first place.

Chat gpt just loves pointing out twists!

Don’t overthink it

Exactly. I was trying to be conservative by choosing only 6 and sticking to the cheaper plans.

But it is entirely conceivable today that, if someone has literally all the subscriptions, they could be paying more than cable costs.

Another factor I ignored for brevity is, at least when I was a kid, the price of cable was often bundled with Internet and telephone services. I can’t speak to how accurate the numbers would be, but I’m pretty sure my dad was paying $100+ for cable and everything else, meaning the cable likely wasn’t the entire cost of the bill. But I digress…

Streaming has gotten out of hand, and anyone who disagrees with me today will eventually agree within a decade.

But the direction is certainly heading towards the realm of cable prices…

• Netflix: $15.49
• Amazon Prime Video: $14.99
• Apple TV+: $6.99
• HBO Max: $15.99
• Disney+: $10.99
• Hulu: $14.99

Total: $79.44 per month

So maybe when you account for inflation it is still only half of what cable costs,.perhaps. but those are the cheaper plans. For HDR support for Netflix it’s like $25, and it’s the reason I cancelled Netflix.

I don’t think the meme is dumb, just ahead of it’s time, but it’s calling out what is certainly happening.

Most streaming services now include ads in the paid subscription.

Inch the ad ratio and prices up another 40% and we are getting pretty close to cable experience/cost. And that’s only a few years away when we look at how much costs have raised over the last 10 yrs.

If each service raises price $1/month every year and you have 6 services, then in 5 yrs you’re paying $30 more per month, prob around $100+.

How long ago was this?

I have 2 monitors. My primary is ultra wide for gaming and the secondary is discord, Spotify, etc. so I can view messages and stuff without leaving my full screen game.

For work? I just use my Mac monitor like a neanderthal. Idk why but I don’t really find multiple monitors helps me work faster.

Would sarcasm without inflection be the same as deadpan? So maybe without the /s it’s deadpan and with the /s it’s sarcasm? :P

This has been a fun conversation to read. Such nuance.

your microwave is so clean! Very nice!

Banks have laws and regulations that they must abide by to secure the access to and information of customer accounts. A security team will surely have to sign off on whatever the app developer or customer experience manager wants to implement.

Are they?

The logic is bugging me, though. It should be if isFirstAttempt || !isPasswordCorrect

I understand the meme is trying to convey in spite of being correct to still return an error, but then it doesn’t account for when the password is actually incorrect.
