Poor people don't save because they are poor and there's nothing to save. It costs loads more to be poor than to have some money. You won't save money by buying up-front, if your credit is low you'll pay more than a pers

The first one is humorous, but the second is a little iffy (lying to your family). But the final shot of the mom is funny because she looks almost nefarious.

I think something similar was in the Apple Keynote but it wasn't as nefarious. Basically, your worklife is hell so you forgot your kids play but magic AI cures it by letting you know that it's coming up? I forget exactly what it w

Agreed, I was just making a comment that the changes can be from the artists and not the services. I've been streaming music since Yahoo music, but have started to change my ways by buying vinyl or digital through the artists own site

They've been changing album covers and songs since at least the 70s. This isn't anything new or recent, except streaming makes it a lot more convenient while also getting artists out of hot legal water like the Gorillaz change. I&

I'm not sure why you don't think there's not a place for research. Personally, I think social media, and just the internet itself, is most likely harming society as it's by and large run by corporations. I would love to

I've used VLC for a long time as well, and while I wouldn't call it crusty, I would call it odd. Powerful, super capable, but doesn't seem to follow standard conventions. Honestly, it's odd but I would rather they don&#x

There's 2x the amount of border apprehensions under Biden than Trump. I'm sure more people are trying to get into the country under Biden than trump so let's say the control is pretty even but not uncontrolled. https:/&

I don't know why they chase other products when they could take both of those and have some sort of premium additions to charge for. I pay for my mail clients, my calendar clients, and would pay for a browser with extra features /

You can use use get info (command + i) on the application file and drag and drop a new icon. App updates would get rid of that though. Overall, this is affordable and easier if you really want to make a lot of changes.

Apple has gotten into Windows and PC territory with their naming for chips and models. Kind of funny to see the evolution of a compact product line and naming convention slowly turn into spreadsheet worthy comparison charts. That all said,
