This is all ridiculous and just there to push stock prices up. The asset owners getting richer on the back of the white collar worker (see META stock since all the layoffs).

Spontaneously in English usage is something done without pre-planning. Spur of the moment. As in "we spontaneously decided to drive to LA" In this German context it's more like "we will figure it out". As in, we pla

Not the most useful thing in the world if one lives outside the US. The 'conversions' offered to me where: 450 g is "450 Grams" and "0.45 kilograms" Yea ok.

My China iPhones don't even have any eSIM support. Instead we get a dual nano SIM card slot. https://support.apple.com/en-hk/HT209086 Personally I'd love for eSIM to be there in ADDITION but not replacing th

They are required by European law to allow it, wether they see it as compromising security or not. This isn't Apple's decision.

In what world was Pichai Sundararajan a celebrity? Before Google surely not and now you'd say he is one BECAUSE of the CEO job or?

He's a Google lifer. It's not like you have to go out and poach him from somewhere else.

For 226 MILLION dollars I bet my ass a ton of VERY SMART people would want that job. Many many many.

AI is the new crypto (though with more substance). Attracts many of the same self obsessed snake oil selling characters though.

Apple is the new Google. So many good apps they've started and either killed (Aperture) or basically abandoned (their office suite). Instead they're coming out with plenty of what's basically demo apps barely anyone uses. Fre

Who on earth would still want to work for Zuckerberg now? You can't be sure to last any amount of time anyway.

Meta just copies. Reels (videos!) on instagram (a photo app!) is a straight up copy of tiktok with the vast majority of videos on it just copies or resubmissions of videos originating on tiktok.

What metaverse does Google proactively pursue?

The most sold EV brand in the US with about 2/3 of market share doesn't allow CarPlay either. Now don't get me wrong, I want my Apple Carplay too. I wouldn't want to buy a car without it. But the argument that "as t

None of those "products" (really just features. What is the point of a Streets View "app"?) made any sense to begin with. Goes to show that Google has been a free-for-all for too long. Who allowed these things to be buil

That's all nice and cute and wonderful for in a couple generations from now. Society doesn't adapt quickly. There will be blood on the streets way more likely than a utopian society growing out of nowhere.

We are all fucking ourselves and our future. AI will take every single job away until there's only a small sliver of "owners" who will eventually sell to fewer and fewer consumers. Oh sorry yes downvote me. I forgot. I am on

How are they Exxon? They aren't vertically integrated to the same extend as a producer, explorer, refiner and distributor of oil such as Exxon. Super chargers are dispensers. They get the electricity from somewhere else. And they most

That is exactly it. It's not the first time Zuckerberg went into that direction and failed. He tried the same with the mobile market (and was ridiculously late in the game with a not-much-differentiating offering, not unlike Amazon). I
