Yeah, there was an era of good Focuses, also the Crown Vic. Crown Vic is probably their only car a random person will see and assume it's reliable, in the US at least.

Toyota and Honda have each other as direct competitors. If one of them sacrifices reliability, it's over. There are also second tier ones like Nissan making interchangeable cars, so if say Toyota stoops to Nissan's level, then the

I also use the M1 mini. It replaced my 2009 Mac Pro. Apple didn't always make solid machines, like the crap 2016-2019 MBPs, but now they've gotten it right.

Apple might be the top laptop seller in the US, not sure. There are more people using Windows, even in the US.

Toyota and Honda have competitors that are pretty interchangeable, like each other.

And they're taking a risk that the movie turns out bad. It does seem like newer movies have become mediocre because they don't want to take risks anymore.

Consumers do seem less willing to waste time watching ads than before, though. Cable TV was insane.

Because some people really want to watch some particular show. If so then good for them, idc what Disney does.

Some were going to pay. They already want to watch the show badly enough to jump through the hoops of pirating it.

In that case, you can use a skill calling an HTTP+JSON endpoint. Or if you mean it's literally a remote CLI, so it needs bidi streaming, that's what websockets is for (or gRPC but ehh). Those are well-established. MCP sounds like

Yeah I saw this and thought, this is oddly specific, is there some publicly-traded company trying to buy up medical care for cheap?

They didn't have that for Mac. Oh and turns out Word '04 was Mac-only, '03 was the last Windows version without the ribbon.

Code is different from key. The secret key is how he can get new codes without you having to deal with it every time he logs in.

No I don't know it. Is that what echelon meant when saying Google needs to be broken up?

Samsung would be hypocritical to complain about proprietary extensions to Android.

Wow, Apple really made the right business choice only catering to people who don't care about any of this. Google set different expectations, and it already bit them with Epic.

This news in particular seems similar to the other Android phonemakers like Samsung. They have their own custom Android forks that aren't open source. Maybe Google is wearing two hats here, Android and Pixel? But if Pixels are getting

Google started making proprietary APIs for their Pixel on their non-open version of Android. Even if they stopped contributing to the open Android, what ladder did they pull up? The open Android is still there.

I forgot about this. Epic lost the same kind of suit against Apple. That's hilarious.
