“I actually think it’s disingenuous for governors and elected officials who pontificate about workforce and hiring and economic development to then go and basically throw a grenade to the center of what is the new industrial revolution that literally powers almost every single business on earth,”

Except that this “revolution” is taking away more long-term jobs than it will create.

I wouldn’t mind it coming to an updated ThinkPhone.

The glasses shouldn’t exist but what parents are buying these for their kids?! Blame the parents too.

I didn’t see them say that FLAC wasn’t lossless. When I do see someone say that, they’re usually confusing lossless with uncompressed. FLAC and ALAC are lossless. No one can say otherwise. I have my entire library as uncompressed AIFF because o have the storage and I can always compress if needed.

I switched all my daily use PCs to Linux in 2004 and haven’t looked back. I did have a Plex server running on Windows 10 for about a year but even that has moved to an unRAID server.

I think the company is less of an issue than the school who even considered this to start with.

And yet very few politicians are willing to stand up to big tech and say no.

Great advertising. I’ve had bitchat for a while but have never seen anyone else on the mesh. It is an amazing idea and I’d love hear some success stories of people using it in different circumstances.

If it works for Apple, Samsung and Google will be next in line to do the same. Enshittification is in no way limited to Apple.

I don’t think people care as much about the latest and greatest laptop as they do smartphones. That mindset about phones is also just as true with Android fanboys as it is Apple fanboys. Apple haters love to criticize when Apple does something like this but when the rest of the industry follows suit, they show us how much non-Apple users eat that shit up too.
