I'd recommend Valencia in addition to Madrid. I can't say I enjoyed Barcelona that much, it felt too touristy. Valencia had a wonderful balance of tourism, low prices, food, and waterfront.

When I got a quote to upgrade my resistive heater to a heat pump, the added cost to get a backup resistive heater (with the same capacity as my existing one) was only $500. Seems like as long as you're wired for it, it's very chea

There are no longer just two 5k 27" displays. Per a thread on macrumors[1], the display panels that make up these displays are now available from the factories, so some chinese manufacturers have begun making monitors at much lower pri

I wouldn’t have opened the app, but I find I stay browsing around even after I view the post. Threads really does seem to be alive in the same way twitter was. I haven’t yet naturally opened threads yet, but I’ll probably hit that point soo

I wonder if this could be iCloud Private Relay? It appears that it's effectively a VPN with some redirection layers that change often, though I don't know the exact details.

Hell of a dataset, but less of the talent. Takes a very specific type of person to get to the front of the AI field, then take a government salary using your knowledge for (what could be) war and surveillance, likely against any public inte

The 'solely online' group chat really doesn't seem to be the norm for all but a very specific demographic. It's also very different from what is being discussed in the article.

To those who haven't visited, the 9/11 memorial in NYC is very powerful and well done. I don't think there's a dry eye around by the time you get to the end.

Advertised, as in TV/web/radio. Always cost per month, by dealers. The MSRPs are published in easy to find places, but that's not how the average buyer approaches the transaction

Price is king, but what kind of price? Americans have proven that labyrinthine financing and mortgage-length car loans are less of an obstacle, to the point that car MSRPs are essentially never advertised (outside of Tesla). Will the winner

Honestly, this seems like the sort of thing that they just didn't consider when testing. Maybe they even saw some 'Bag is unusually loud' notes and thought 'How bad could it possibly be?' and greenlit it. Feels more

WhatsApp/Signal involve other people you want to communicate with having those apps, which is fairly unlikely in the US (at least outside of tech/international social groups). Only chat apps out here you can count on are facebook

I really like Kagi Orion and hope it can succeed, but the keychain integration is still severely lacking, and also is my favorite advantage of safari. Maybe there are settings I'm missing, but migrating everything over to their keychai

Toyota has massive scale, is very successful, and is japanese, and thus has extreme inertia on change, even in software where such things 'should' be faster. Their existing infotainment has been considered fine and functional for

If Toyota integrated CarPlay correctly, it wouldn’t be crashing. Instead, they prioritize their inferior system, which only leads to better experience because the other one is gimped.
