I think if you went in a Framework direction (opensource, high quality hardware, techie oriented, etc.) you would be able to make it work for a small high end market, particularly if you aimed it having a great "pc-connected" expe

I mostly only use spotify for discovery, using either discovery weekly or starting a radio stream from a particular song. Is there another service that treats artists better that I can use instead for this purpose?

Not really related to what I said but I'll bite. Let me try phrasing it in a different way, if someone asked you to, in addition to doing your own job, do someone elses, but instead of paying you for that additional work said you'

The Communicator is interesting but why are they marketing this as a "second" phone? I can see buying this as a primary but who is really looking for a phone they carry specifically as a backup for when they want a keyboard?

Still no big CAD names that I'm aware of (annoyingly), Libre Calc works fine for me as an Excel alternative, I have used Matlab on it but not recently, not sure on the others. Laptop sleep and suspend can still be finicky unfortunately

I've used GrapheneOS for years now and it is the easiest-to-use, lowest friction privacy oriented software I've interacted with. I'm not sure why one banking app not working would be a deal breaker (Can you not live without t

I don't think it was a miscalculation, it was big business interests winning over geopolitical considerations. Of course, with some added hubris when it came to opinions on the ability of third world countries to develop into competito

I talk later on that I think a small ev van would have been a better entry into the market. That being said I do love pickups, my dream car is probably the Slate if it ever gets made. I won't argue about truck over van on the merits be

You are looking at the wrong thing, look at overall vehicle dimensions. 1995 Ford Ranger Extended Cab - 3200+ lbs - 198" long - 69" wide - 6' bed 2023 Ford Ranger Super Cab (last year they had a 2 door) - 4100+ lbs - 210&quot

You are framing it as "this technological advancement is being thought of as bad because we always think of new technological advancements as bad". AI is bad because of all the ways in which it is objectively bad.
