I think it says more about most people not wanting to bother to read. Modern social media has only succeeded by moving away from text, and meeting the masses where they already are. They mostly don't want to read.

Can you be specific about your bad experiences with Apple hardware? I've gone through 5 MacBook Pros since 2008 and my only complaint was the old Intel models always got too hot. Nothing ever broke on them and I guess I kept them relat

Cast aside your doubts, I've been to different parts of Europe a few times with different, healthy MBPs (I buy a new one every 4-5 years) with healthy adapters. Plugging into the wide EU outlet with the Apple-manufactured plug, from th

Same. My M1 Max only shows it age when building a few massive C++ projects, the M4 cuts down compile times to a quarter so I feel like I'm missing out there, but not enough to put down another$4k yet. Compared to every Intel MBP I went

In some fairness, the page existing at all is half the battle. I'm glad the canvas exists for the paint to eventually, maybe, one day arrive.

All that's probably true, but the average person thinks Trump single-handedly accomplished this. Annoying because he certainly contributed, but he's not the sole reason.

MAGA content is easily avoidable, because the algo already prioritizes what you engage with. For me in Canada, there's just a lot of funny/insightful US-based content I do watch. TikTok got significantly less interesting when the

No, he shared on Dithering that there was a back-and-forth email exchange about the execs appearing on the Talk Show as usual, but they couldn't come to an agreement on details of the event.

And yet most people won't bother doing it. Same way most attempts to stop piracy work. The people who are serious about getting around the blocks will find ways, but the less motivated will just give up (again, this is most people).

Your McD's meal was probably closer to 2000 calories, even with the giant Coke. For a short period I ate one meal a day, even when I thought I went over maintenance with a massive fast food treat, I'd still be 4-500 cals under if

There is a paying market, it's just overwhelmingly erased by the market for the larger phones, so companies stop bothering.

What I find fascinating is that Apple's and [Android manufacturers]'s previous attempts at smaller phones aren't even worth maintaining after they assess sales. In my mind, these companies are all so massive they can afford a

You're reminding me, Twitch somehow got around UBO a few years ago. Oddly it was basically the only site (that I used regularly) that UBO couldn't catch. Are you saying that everyone using UBO had to add their own script to get ar

Honestly, after years of hearing that Elon's mishaps and faceplants will actually have a meaningful impact, with no meaningful impact, I'm sure xAI will be fine as long as they stay somewhat competitive.

There weren't a lot of 50+ year old folks on Reddit in 2016. Now there are, but that's because they've aged into that range.

The extended lockdowns 100% ended his term. It upset too many people for too long. Regardless of actual responsiblity, big nationwide negative events always get laid at the feet of the current sitting president.

The Twitter-purchase debt problem is a lot less relevant now that he's rolled X into xAI. Now X the app gets to tag along with a higher value AI company (or at least it is currently valued much higher due to investors dreaming big).
