How it’s getting tied into the broader ecosystem feels very forced, too.

Advertising the ability to take spatial video from an iPhone months before the Vision Pro launched definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

Usually Apple’s tie-ins feel additive — I’m not given a product that feels like it’s missing a feature if I don’t own another Apple device. When I buy additional product types, I feel like I gain the missing features. Seems like that changed with Spatial Video. You get to stare at a reminder that you don’t own the headset every time you take video.

I don’t like that.

Wow that article pointed out a lot I didn’t know about Oregon. Thanks history classes that skip this!

Thanks for sharing it.

I stand by my original observation about the anti-self-checkout arguments since my point is being proven lol

So you’re a fan of continuing to support an occupation that has a high incidence rate of RSI because you want to stick it to the man and make someone swipe your bag of chips.

You do you. That’s… really hurting the corporation there.

You do realize that price gouging and profiteering is a completely different problem than showing/honoring correct prices?

If you’re going to mash all the worlds problems into a single mistake here, might as well blame them for global warming too.

I think people are far more invested in trying to find some conspiracy instead of accepting that mistakes happen, be it in code, pricing, whatever.

The closest thing to a fix is ensuring your local consumer laws say the sticker price prevails and call it out to a supervisor if you find an issue.

I don’t get the weirdness of the spike of self-checkout hate lately. There’s a lot of “I deserve to have a human scan items” takes that are bafflingly stupid.

I literally learned this as I posted because I wanted to verify that the Pentagon was the largest and had to revise what I was about to send.

This demonstrates why a lot of people in the “green” movement don’t get taken seriously, and deservedly so.

Can you share your Congressional omnibus bill of all-time that solves all of the worlds problems, perfectly, in one-shot, with majority support?

Well no. The Pentagon is an office building. The second largest office building on the planet installing solar and improving it’s heating efficiency is a pretty big win.

The funding to modernize federal buildings didn’t include the entire DoD because a tank or F-35 isn’t considered a building.

How is this greenwashing?

A building is installing solar panels and replacing hvac systems with more efficient equivalents. If installing solar panels and installing more efficient heating/cooling is now considered greenwashing…

You’re directing the blame at the working class when the political system created these problems.

Who did you vote for in 2008? The neoliberal or the neocon?

2012? Neoliberal or neocon?

2020? The neoliberal or the alt-right lunatic?

2024? The neoliberal or the alt-right lunatic?

As a millennial I have a pretty bad track record by voting for all these neolibs

Whatever ailment you’re going through life right now, I hope you find a way to get through it.

This take is not from a healthy mind.

Sure, but that’s 15 years ago and homebuilders drastically slowed down since then. Now the Boomers can’t sell their house and move somewhere cheaper screwing up a source of money for their retirement.

We’re all fucked in this mess, it doesn’t matter which generation you’re in.

Ooops, my bad. Thank you!

Sure, if this hyper-abundance of condos exists. Unfortunately it doesn’t.

Baby boomers aren’t some evil monolith hiding in the closet waiting to steal your bag of Oreos.

Where do you propose they move to? Even if we wanted them to vacate homes, there’s an assisted living shortage (heads up, article is kind ehhhhhhhh overall) so we can’t just shove them somewhere.

Do note that you’re actually defending Tesla here if you want to use the steering wheel argument, which I suspect is not your intent.

Every major carmaker behind CCS has had more physical safety recalls (w/ higher %), and in a lot of cases, with more safety critical components (ie wheels, critical suspension components, various fire hazards)

And yes, standards can improve, they can also change. NACS is the standard and CCS is now effectively dead in the North American market. CHAdeMO was available much earlier than CCS and implemented by multiple manufacturers but there are very few people talking about that.

I implore you to rent a vehicle instead of speculating in the comments. CCS is a terrible connector.

Absolutely and it fucking sucks since it costs so much more to even finance a car.
