I see your point, but I’m not thinking just about the end but the middle: the things that happens in between for the product to arrive at the hands of the user. A cartel has massive power doing drug deals, and uses violence to assert its control over the market. The same happened in the prohibition era with alcohol. Wouldn’t the same happen with gun prohibition?

The only way for it to never bother you is to pay someone to do your laundry. Other than that it’s a chore that will always be there no matter what. You can also have a deal with your partner, make her/him do the laundry and you take care or something else.

I know it’s a joke but this triggered something primal inside me that I cannot quite understand yet, and it’s not a fart.

Not my case at all, I can see the value of an ad made by a content creator I like. My complain is about things that falls into the enshittification spectrum, like ads on the media center of their brand new cars. I know I would be pissed off by it, but maybe I’m on my own bubble of ad hate.

I cannot wrap my head around the economics of the ad industry. They work to make your life worse in the most obnoxious and disgusting ways possible, and they - and any brand that works with then by association - are hated and reviled by that. Yet, it makes BILLIONS and companies spend billions on it.

I don’t get it.

Well, when the AI market crashes they will have lots of unused datacenters… Guess they found an use for that after all.

Firefox and Tab stash. If I have a lot of tabs I just click the extension button, it archives all as bookmarks and closes everything. It also open its own tab listing everything you saved. Once in a while I revisit the names and decide what to do: save in Joplin if it is an article interesting enough to be saved, save the video if I like it enough, or just delete it.

Just a side note: by default Tab Stash hides the tabs instead of closing it so you can recover it faster. Change it to “close immediately” to free some memory instead.

I know exactly what I need my phone for: music, maps, banking, messaging, books and sometimes traveling. Anything else I have is a distraction that I’m addicted to have.

You know what keeps me from binning it? The FOMO, and not being able to hold conversations with friends and coworkers because I’m would not be tuned to the latest trends and happenings, and that sucks.

Reminds me of the ancient Motorola Cube. I had one and loved the little thing.

Because the CEOs will biy the new people. Better to off both.

I’m divided because on one side AI is taking away many jobs that now outputs low quality shit. On the other hand, AI may allow small creators to see their vision become real with tight budgets, specially in countries without a strong movie industry.

I could Barium hold my laughter at this.

Liquid Ass

Given the current state on the US arriving with a burner phone, or even a clean one, would at least get you interrogated, and at worst deported to Guantanamo. Better leave something innocuous on the phone that makes it look used.

I’m so not stoked for this… Apart from being a reboot, bringing Tron to the real world smells like budget cuts to make the movie. I seriously think it will suck, but the soundtrack will rock.

To me the killer feature is the ability to send my tabs to any device I have. Without it it’s impossible for me to ditch Firefox, I rely too much on this feature.

I can only imagine Disney buying it.

I found AI tools awesome for removing objects in photos or transcribing a conversation. Other than that it’s useless because it’s not reliable.

A case like that for a Galaxy S is exactly what I want.
