It’s only available in North America / Mexico. It won’t fly with many vehicle regulations outside of the US.

I imagine the sharp edges are more than enough to keep it out of Europe forever. Pedestrians need to be able to roll onto a vehicle in an EU pedestrian collision. The Cybertruck will lop you in half.

I want a 3 axis chart of price, size, and number of ads in the UI.

I love the not so subtle dig about her marrying a rich old man. She’s a weirdo.

The only thing keeping my meta account alive is Marketplace. Unfortunately, it’s much busier than Craigslist in my area.

Facebook has become a dirty flea market for me.

You need to look at battery lab research on a 10-20 year time before it gets commercialized at scale.

Moreover, go look at your rechargeable batteries from 10 or 20 years ago. They’re heavier, less energy dense, have shorter lifespans, have much slower charge rates. A lot of those advancement started in a lab and look many years to make it to your laptop or car.

Honestly, I’m all for tech continuing to move to Texas. Want to make Texas blue? Keep sending tech jobs there.

I used to do a lot of research in 3D imaging, and my take is that passive stereoscopic glasses were always destined to fail because they cause eye strain for too many people. And that eye strain is usually caused by the fact that the focal point is fixed, and a lot of eyeballs fight that when they see a three dimensional image. We’re used to being able to shift focus at will with real-world 3D space.

This problem doesn’t impact everyone, and it’s not as bad with immersive experiences that keep items sharp in the foreground and background, or with films that don’t have interesting shit happening the background.

That said, it’s a really old and well documented problem, and I don’t believe we have affordable varifocal viewing solutions on the market yet.

“The golden era of 3D home movie releases”

The era was never golden. Most people did it a handful of times, got a headache, and never did it again.

Mr Mangione worked as a data engineer for TrueCar

Looks like TrueCar had a decent Aetna plan in his state.

I was sure this shooter was on United Healthcare.

Shrinking is pretty chill. Kind of reminds me a little bit of Ted Lasso in that people aren’t total pieces of shit and try to learn from their fuck ups. Also, Harrison Ford.

Pharma companies pay for their own efficacy and safety studies just like car companies pay for their own crash tests. They’re required to.

Good call out. We definitely need to clarify what is “political” more than what is there now.

I don’t think that was me that pulled it, but after listening to the song, which is dope, I probably would’ve made the same call.

Basically anything that spends a significant portion of time focusing on a politician, public policy, or geopolitics, we’re asking those to be posted to /polticialvideos. This video might have also been getting rule violation reports from the community.

Given the current wars and recent elections, political videos were becoming a large part of LW videos content. I personally have no problem with it, and I like political videos, but a lot of people in the community kept asking us to bifurcate.

We’re trying our best to do what the community asked us to do. It’s definitely an imperfect and subjective process.

Just like when Threads launched and or when Reddit made the API changes. You get a flood of new users who want to talk about being new users.

The way this article is framed sounds like bullshit to me. 18.1 was released less than 2 weeks ago. Any phone running this version of iOS would have had to already been in custody and somehow upgraded to this version, or otherwise brought into custody very recently—too recently for this to have already posed such a problem that law enforcement is “freaking out” and reporting it to the media.

A non-insignificant amount of people have been running the public betas because of Apple intelligence, RCS / iMessage toys, UI customization, etc. For example, MixPanel reported about 2% of the iOS install base running 18.0 before 18.0’s launch. IMHO, that’s pretty crazy for a beta OS.

Looks like the big difference is that this is on by default, it appears to get enabled when cops turn off internet access to prevent access to FindMy and remote lockdowns.

IMHO, the novelty of the feature isn’t what makes this headline worthy. This is noteworthy because of the scale. iOS is over a quarter of phones on earth, and in English speaking countries and Japan, you’re looking at numbers that are often over 50%.

This will impact a LOT more investigations than Graphene, and I imagine Apple will be back in court fighting cops who want to remove privacy and security features. Hopefully this stuff stands up to the autocrats coming into power in the states.

Why doesn’t MS do what Apple does with Writing Tools. Put it Rewrite at the OS level so that anything with text can access the feature? Doing this an app at a time is odd.
