Musk has moved on from trying to create an ‘internet bank’. Dude now wants to make something like LINE or WeChat, which is absolutely hilarious.

It’s not that easy to break an addiction, but I have faith that Musk can fuck this website up juuuuust enough to chase away a higher percentage.

They’ll just call every one of those inactive accounts ‘bots’ and be done with it

lol no problem, the way this was reported definitely made it seem like this was something new when it was really not.

Uhh just to clear up a misunderstanding, Apple and everyone else already scans your photos in the cloud and compares them to a pre-curated hash of known CSAM. What Apple was trying to do was do the scans on-device instead, for photos outbound to Apple’s iCloud. Supposedly, this was to make sure that your photos weren’t directly scanned by Apple themselves.

I care. This thing’s already thick and heavy enough, and I don’t particularly care about popping the back off my phone to replace a battery. It’s like…once every two years that I have to replace it.

On the bright side, people like him are unlikely to be happy with what they have. He’ll spend the rest of his life dreaming about the billions he ‘lost’, rather than being satisfied with the obscene amount of wealth he already has.

I mean, wouldn’t be too out-there. How many Americans are living paycheck to paycheck with some sort of massive debt? How many can’t afford to have any assets? How many more accrue even greater debt to either survive, or drop money they don’t have on shit they don’t need (like that latest BMW) just so they can keep up with the Joneses?

Yeah, and the most accessible too; meaning a lot of people who would love to mess around with their cars to get more value for their money.

It uses pull-tab adhesive, which even most Right-to-Repair advocates consider ‘sufficiently repairable’. When it comes to glue, Samsung’s worse by a mile.

Probably yes period

With Apple, people generally let it slide because electronics aren’t as expensive and don’t last as long. Cars, on the other hand, are extraordinarily expensive and they’re supposed to last a lot longer than a phone.

Plus, at least Apple doesn’t (for example) charge you extra just to ‘unlock’ more performance on your phone.

Imagine being able to retrofit these with solid-state batteries when they’re a thing. These hackable 3s might someday go for a premium.

Especially when FSD is still garbage. Seems to me like they just wanted to trigger FOMO.

If the copyright holder no longer provides a legal way to acquire any piece of media directly from them, making it so that the only way to acquire it legally is in a manner that prevents the copyright holder from seeing any profit, and the legal option is essentially a grift where you’re sometimes paying 100x the sticker value for something where the copyright holder won’t see a single cent…

Wait, they redesigned it again?

Thankfully, Apple seems to be going back on the ‘less is more’ thing that Jony Ive started; at least when it comes to stuff like their laptops.

Then I can’t do anything to help, since I haven’t used Chrome in years

It’s not 100% guaranteed to work, but you can go with the angle that God left us as the custodians of the planet, and what we’re doing is destroying it; hence breaking our promise and showing God that he was wrong to have faith in us.

That sounds really interesting! I hope future product/UX designers see those kinds of videos and we can see a return of more ‘creative’ designs.
