Oh ok this is no longer productive. "Go take on apple starting with nothing if you think a minority interest is worth even mentioning w.r.t. their policies." It is exercise to move furniture. It is exercise to go for a run. If the

> These Moog dancers don't fit that mode. I mean, the second dance ends with about 40 seconds just watching the cameras, which have crowded the frustrated dancers off-screen. How is that "dad appeal"? Maybe that's a q

>tracking is for training that needs additional sports-specific data Because in the view of apple, manual labour doesn't count for anything "specific" even if it is a bigger, longer and more intense workout than something

by harry8 4y ago
I don't think you've considered that someone performing manual labor may wish to measure their heart rate and blood pressure for health reasons while performing said labor - the way the apple adverts claim has health benefits. If

It's completely fair that saying everyone dancing is being sexual in all circumstances is nonsense. Totally. The quote is one of those chestnuts. Wilde? Shaw? And was tipping the hat to being a little hyperbolic. Have you heard it befo

It's just like sticking up for the rule of law and equality before it is sticking up for rapists and murders, right? "You want E2E encryption? Why are you sticking up for the terrorists and child porn rings?" Terrible, terrib

Event ticketing is, imho, one of the most fundamentally corrupt industries I've ever encountered as a consumer so taking it as the example is problematic, (unless you know someone, right? Just queuing up for tickets is naive beyond my

All that stuff apple say in their ads about health is just garbage? Or nobody who does manual labour cares about their health? Or both? Not seeing another interpretation here but maybe I'm missing it? It's valid but I'm not g

You could have picked better examples. I understood the point nonetheless. GP nitpicked imperfect examples and that's fine. I do want to make the point that hard, manual labour does still exist and by extension yours that apple watches

Seems like you might not have actually performed full-time manual labor for money to pay rent and eat. Is that right? Chopping wood, raking leaves, just seems like pretty suburban white-collar parent activities to pick on. As opposed say, s

I'd actually make much the same argument about classical ballet as it developed only with different technology, (stage, theatre) and a different, more segregated and selected audience, some of whom counted more than the rest combined.

Stick "modern dance" or "abstract dance" into youtube and you find a bunch of stuff very quickly. Try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FwiMlDQ7rI I did not look hard.

It's a reasonable point, but I think both points of view are valid and I offer no answers. The first is the reason the dancers are there is classic "for the dads" tv to check out the bodies of some young, fit, conventionally

>Still: local news, much better than you find on the web Can't you find the exact local news broadcast on the web to watch at the time of your choosing? If not why not? Seems odd.

Nothing large ever started small and grew. No idea ever took time to catch on. Anything that doesn't work immediately is worthless. Any dissent is therefore futile and anyone who indulges is clearly morally bankrupt or belongs in Jail

Now that is interesting. I didn't know that and will have to look further to understand what it means. Wireguard seems to be written almost entirely in C, is that right?

Ok but this is surely not compelling evidence of literally anything. Perhaps, in fact, the opposite. This is what we have for evidence and nothing more then WHY??? There is something here, at least one thing, that seems to be dominating out

Does anybody at all use that library in production at scale, ever? Genuine question. Maybe they do? Why hasn't this really good result meant _everybody_ now uses that library by default and has to justify using something else? There is

Seems like drawing too many conclusions from evidence while arguing against a straw man? Defenders of C might note that Android is java and IOS is not and compare the security of those two systems and say clearly memory-safe is focusing on

Pay apple, multiple recurring subscriptions to do what they want you to do. This is always the answer.

In general something being normal for humans for millennia does not mean it was healthy. It was normal to have incredibly painful teeth, probably not healthy. It was normal to die before reaching adulthood. It is entirely possible that some
