In a functioning society the decision makers would be facing criminal charges and possible prison time and restitution.

This was a computer for idiots even when it came out.

Probably because it's targeted at working class adults instead of housewives and retirees like most American propaganda.

Try forty or fifty years, unless you got your first job at 40. Unless you're a boomer, you aren't even getting full social security until 67 and unless you saved like a motherfucker you probably won't retire till your 70s.

Except you DO know the password to your password manager, which makes it about as secure as just writing them down and keeping them in the house.

Impressive since that means that Walgreens just ate the cost of your shot.

What were they expecting when the government stopped paying for it? We already know the normal American healthcare system is garbage, this is the result of that.

It cost me $400 to get my gf and her son vaccinated, that'll get reimbursed by insurance... eventually, probably. That's going to be a barrier for a lot of people, just like always.

It's not even implemented well in very many monitors. I think a lot of people just turn it in cause it's supposed to be "better" even if it doesn't make much of an actual difference.

With proton and all the work value (and others) put into it, we're at the point where it's weird if something doesn't work on Linux.

Proton is so good now that there are games that have native Linux versions that run better if you play the Windows version with proton.

His point is that the browser is integral to the functioning of the phones OS and is a decision that the consumer makes when they purchase a phone.

Your suggestion is akin to demanding the right to buy a Honda with a Toyota engine installed by the dealer.

Seriously, the number of times I type something into the desktop search and want web search results is exactly zero.

OP isn't from an English speaking country, you should pay better attention before you call people stupid.

You know, there is actually a whole internet's worth of non-English content. It's pretty weird that you don't know that, given your complaint.

Because divesting means selling, which means.that you get money in exchange for property. How do you not understand this?

Which would still leave him insanely rich, so the answer you are looking for is "no, elon musk is not taking any actual personal risk here at all."

Again, none of that impacts him in any way apart from losing the ability to literally just do it again.

Someone in a boardroom probably had a neat bar graph and PowerPoint describing how getting Grandma into IG is going to make them a fortune.

It's impossible to say what anything is worth to a person who can lose 44 billion dollars and still have so much money left that the next 10 generations of their lineage won't ever have to work again.

It's insane to think of that as a trivial amount of money, but musk could literally lose 99% of his money and it wouldn't impact his life at all, except for his hobby of bankrupting corporations.

Seriously. People make up all kinds of explanations for why no one actually uses phones but few seem to have noticed that it's because we got to a point where a majority of our calls were shit we didn't want.

Kinda the same thing with the mail. My letter carrier gets irritated that I don't empty my box everyday, but he's the one stuffing it with two pounds of trash every day. I get like two letters a week they are actually relevant and the rest is garbage or actual dangerous Identity theft risk they I have to destroy.
