They weren’t doing disk level data recovery for this. At best it’s a backup but I suspect it’s just “back end” as in “we have it but the customer can’t see it until they pay for a subscription”

It’s just a higher ride height, and we recognize the pollution that driving a car across a stream can cause. Nothing particularly challenging about the depth shown here.

It’s pretty fucking difficult to be “balanced” when one side is publishing verifiable falsehoods as truth.

A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early; he arrives precisely when he means to.

Gandalf was not late, only delayed.

There’s a lot of value to teaching kids the value of their time - and how little they get for it.

The “worked harder in school because of manual labour” didn’t work for me though.

I don’t expect the same would happen if the person wasn’t related to a TV personality.

Also, this brings into question whether deleted data is in fact deleted.

the government is forcing us to use electric vehicles so that they have control over our cars and can turn off the chargers whenever they want.

Actual thing people have told me. This is what happens when people are getting their news from their Facebook feed.

Slap McDonald’s and Coca-cola on everything, don’t actually kick the Russian aggressors out, but a silent remembrance of your friends and fellow athletes is absolutely a no go.

Fuck the IOC.

The article isn’t about child labour specifically, but part time jobs for teens. Technically, child labour, but not really the same as a 8 year old coal miner or loom operator. Good click bait!

I worked through my teens but with some important caveats. I worked next to my boss every day, and they started before me and finished after me. I worked outdoors, in relatively decent weather. I was able to take vacation as I desired - even though I only had a few weeks to work, I still was able to take 2 weeks of vacation.

I don’t think my kids will be able to have a similar experience (given my location and market forces), and I don’t want them to grind away their leisure time at minimum wage working in a shitty retail environment with unpredictable hours. When I was working, (50-60hrs a week for the summer) the sum total of my all my teen years up to university didn’t cover the first year’s rent. I hope that I’ll be able to find suitable activities, volunteer opportunities, and learning experiences that they can participate in instead of a job.

If you make public transit a public service like road maintenance, this ceases to be an issue.

Didn’t he fire the people responsible for collexting and publishing these statistics

Yeah, smart homes suck. You need Homeassistant to do a lot of basic interactions like “when my window is open for more than 10 min, disable the hvac” because the window sensor is IKEA and the thermostat isn’t.

You shouldn’t need a tech tour and an app (or five) to turn the heat down or clean the dishes. You shouldn’t have to worry that pressing the wrong button will set off a chain of events you don’t know how to undo.

Exactly this. If it needs a manual or explanation, it’s too much cognitive overhead. It’s fine if you’re an engineer who lives alone or have a partner that enjoys it as much as you _and you have change management. Nothing should need explanation to just work. I have a fair bit of automations, but a key part of all of them is manual override.

Fuck the IOC.

Is this real?

It can’t be real.

No suit, shirts, and tie for the office grunts anymore. Lululemon plastic also doesn’t really take to ironing.

Wow. Blast from the past. I see znc is still a thing too

It’s fucking hilarious that you have to point out that “my wife doesn’t have problems opening the glovebox” as if that’s a problem in any other conventional car. Pull lever. Open glovebox. No sub-menu required. No tech bro wanking on the screen.

Yeah, I just don’t have the time or interest to spend weekends messing around with the device I need to stay in touch with work and family. It’s just not worth it. De-googling android is just way too much work.

The majority of the android base are dirt cheap phones in third world countries serving as data collection and advertising platforms to communities that can’t afford anything else.

Also you are the product from data collection, the device’s planned obsolescence/inability to be repaired, surcharges for in-iOS transactions, and so on, but I guess that’s not the exact framework of this question.

Better. Than. Android.

But the margins are obscene for sure.
