That insane amount of stuff was just par for the course back in the day. I still have my old spreasheets and technicians toolkit of 5.25" floppies with all the old school utilities (check it - I forgot about it until I came across my o

And if you look at little closer, it's beyond obvious this is what is behind all of this - if you use Unity's ad services (IronSource) then all the per install fee business magically goes away. They are trying to force people in

They are trying to buy market advantage for their Iron Source acquisition - if you agree to use it then the per download fee's magically go away.

Apple is the most gamed stock out there. It always tanks before their events, and it always recovers after. You can bet against that cycle if you like and you might even "win" short term, but long term you aren't going to k

A solar water heater would be a hell of a lot more efficient than generating electricity via solar then trying to heat water with that!

I wish more designers would read the section on color: https://designsystem.digital.gov/design-tokens/color/overvie... Especially the sections on contrast and accessibility. The current trends for shades of gray&

But as Jobs pointed out at a conference where this came up, the perception that the Mac had legs (because Microsoft still was committed to them) was far more important than the money. If people don't have confidence in your platform, a

Just wait until insurance companies demand access to your cars telemetry for either a "discount" or even to insure you at all. I'm seriously thinking of stockpiling a few extra used "dumb" cars. This is beyond nu

How can it have no screen? They even forced Mazda to put a back up camera in the Miata - which is beyond idiotic.

lol - if they were only that altruistic. Toyota doesn't make the tech, they buy modules from suppliers and integrate the tech. Better hope someone doesn't come out with a fancy super module that has everything integrated because

As dealer inventory starts to pile up, car prices are finally coming down. Anyone paying a markup in today's market just isn't doing their homework. I've yet to pay MSRP or beyond for a car and I don't intend to start

Just unplug the cellular modem. I have three "dumb" cars and I'm going to continue to baby the crap out of them. I have zero interest in anything new. Maybe a Mazda if push came to shove.

Meh - with a Miata you just zip out of their way. Miata owner since 1998 and I even survived commuting for 22 years in Northern VA. Life is too short - get and enjoy a Miata!
