You know there are absolutely zero controls on privacy for Tesla telemetry data. It’s wild to me that a car that is really quite a bit simpler than an ICE car is required to be perpetually online. That said, I saw there’s a company trying to offer electric retrofits for ICE vehicles, primarily classic cars, but that’s likely to be closest to what you want.

This summary makes no sense.

Are earthquakes really that big a factor in where people choose to live?

Wow that guy just likes to argue.

He really does need a hobby. Maybe he can take up sailing or adventuring. Then we don’t have to hear about him at all until some fawning obituary lauding his contributions to humanity and recognizing the pioneering spirit that led to his tragic and early demise.

I use Firefox Focus as a plugin for Safari on iOS. This article threw up a full page ad begging me to turn off my content blocker before letting me view the article.

You aren’t required to keep using Google.

OP started another thread asking how to pirate Roxio…

The worst part is that in many retail chains like Costco, you can only get the 8GB version. I suspect the review reading segment of the population is smaller than we’d expect for such an expensive purchase. Previously they’ve crippled M1 machines that have 256Gb storage, only including one controller instead of two as in the 512+ machines. It’s a shame for MacBook Air, but totally unacceptable for a computer marketed as “Pro”

Lower end macs tend to have slower SSDs so this could be a double whammy on these machines.

Ubuntu 23.10 is the first mainstream Linux desktop distro that I think could be good enough for many windows users. Windows really needs to fumble for this to happen though.

Games like that just reinforce that a large segment of the gaming population will prioritize Windows, and developers go where the players are. I used to dual boot windows but now run windows as a VM with a VFIO gpu. Works great but it’s annoying to need that for just a few applications.

A half measure on this for iPhone users is Apple iTunes Match. It syncs your library to your phone for $25/year. It’s especially useful if the music you like isn’t on Spotify.

In our case we have some devices connected to a receiver (Apple TV) and others to TV (game systems). We use ARC for audio for those devices. I suppose it’s easier if everything is connected to TV for that purpose.

Activities are the killer app of Harmony. How do you set it to switch inputs on the various devices?

You’re right. What you really need is a tv that reacts less bad to being online. It’s a shame Logitech killed the Harmony because dumbing down your tv successfully generally requires a universal remote.

You’re commenting on what Trump and his group do or expect. I don’t disagree. They are disgusting. But the guy I’m responding to is saying that Melania posed naked before so she should expect to keep doing that at the club for his buddies.

That’s a fucked up take. It would be like if you dated someone that used to be a stripper but you thought part of the responsibility of being married to you is to allow herself to be passed around to the boys.

It seems like it’s more to prevent a fraudster from redirecting your mail without your authorization. The article is just indicating that there is a method for people who don’t use the internet.
