Important to note that the 30% cut is also only on developers that bring in >$1M in revenue from the App Store and in app purchases. Which is less than 1% of developers.

For those under $1M it’s only 15%, which is on par or cheaper than what developing your own payment processing or to use another third party processor.

Car insurance costs more than $500 a year generally.

I mean, the pandemic has been over for over a year.

Covid is just endemic now like the flu. It’s seasonal and is never going to go away.

Company sells goods to consumers, more at 11.

There’s always people out there that want to be on the bleeding edge. People spend $2000+ on just a 4090 card, or $2000 on a stupid folding phone that breaks from a grain of sand.

For a high end enterprise geared headset that functions as its own standalone device and doesn’t require any connection to any other computer to work, this isn’t even expensive.

This isn’t meant to compete with something like a Quest. It’s meant to compete with something like the Varjo Aero, which goes from $5-10k.

For a company deciding on implementing AR/VR, the cost to get a Quest Pro for $800 plus a $2500 workstation to power it, vs a $3500 Vision Pro that doesn’t need a workstation, it’s pretty comparable.

The fact that they changed all references to it from “Vision Pro” to just “Apple Vision” really supports that.

I mean, it is given that Biden won this county be more than 60,000 votes already, and Virginia by 450,000.

By an order of magnitude.

WWF estimates around 26,000 polar bears remaining (22,000-30,000). And there are 2640 billionaires globally according to Forbes.

It won’t be worth it for a hot minute. There are only a few routers on the market and they range from several hundred to a couple thousand.

And there are even fewer devices that support it. There are a couple laptops that support it, but they’re a few thousand dollars.

She herself was native Hawaiian and have tens of millions to native causes while she was alive.

Yeah so the absolute oldest Gen X were 4 when it came out.

The younger Boomers were 5-15 when it came out.

Ribeye of the sky

It was boomer shit lol. It first came out in 1969 when younger boomers were hitting childhood and adolescence.

Founded by the German Labour Front, the Nazi party’s national labour organization.

In 1934, with many of the above projects still in development or early stages of production, Adolf Hitler became involved, ordering the production of a basic vehicle capable of transporting two adults and three children at 100 km/h (62 mph). He wanted a car every German family would be able to afford.

It soon became apparent that private industry could not turn out a car for only 990 ℛ︁ℳ︁. Thus, Hitler chose to sponsor an all-new, state-owned factory using Ferdinand Porsche's design (with some of Hitler's design suggestions, including an air-cooled engine so nothing could freeze).

The beetle having a rear mounted air cooled engine was Hitler’s design.

Volkswagen was literally founded by the Nazi party and Adolf Hitler himself was heavily involved in designing their first car lol.

SCOTUS is irrelevant now for Colorado. Today was the deadline to certify primary ballots, and the state Supreme Court issued a stay to their ruling pending SCOTUS. Since they didn’t decline the case and haven’t made a ruling, his name is allowed on the ballot.

He’s already been certified on the ballot in Colorado though, so the court very well may likely just argue that it’s moot now and kick it down the road.

Modern ICE cars do not use fuel when coasting down hill. The computer completely shuts off the fuel injectors when coasting and the physical energy from the car rolling keeps the engine turning over.

Ok I’m not talking about a holding company. Volvo is still produced in Sweden and the US for US market cars. Their automotive company is still headquartered in Sweden.

BYD is not. They’re produced in China, under a Chinese brand name.

Sure but after WWII, we became close allies with Japan. We have been close allies with South Korea since the Korean War. And after Vietnam we have become relatively close with Vietnam.

China is a direct political and economic enemy to the United States. We won’t see a Chinese car brand in the US for at least several decades.
