While obnoxious, they’re not doing anything truly nefarious under the hood: they’re just prepending every link with “edge://“ to open edge. This functionality was available to basically every single app since apps have become a th

You don’t tip. I have a similar rating for the same reason. Tipping is obnoxious, especially when it’s asked for at the start of the transaction.

Fully automated as in you drive up and it “plugs-in” to your car itself? Or just self service?

Yea, this story sadly highlights the difference between how the mainstream media reports stories and how a real reporter would approach the story. Radiolab/NPR is similarly captured, they spent an entire episode on this and expended ve

It truly is fascinating how much of modern education has been influenced by people who have their sights set firmly on teaching through coercion and fear.

Yea, I couldn’t tell. It felt like it, but the way he kept responding implied that maybe he really did think it was simple for some reason I wasn’t getting.

Parental control bypass is the bigger issue here, kids will do anything to get around parental controls and Google made a promise when they set up parental controls that it was secure and would prevent your children from accessing things yo

Additionally it looks like they farmed out the project to a third party that was working with FINRA to ensure compliance, apparently that consulting agency failed at their task miserably.

Are you pulling his leg calling this intuative and obvious? What is obvious about series being better than 360? why would someone think that if they were just presented with those names and nothing else? Why would someone think x is better

Isn't this similar to the type of thing we see here on hn all the time... some journalist, or person with a big following does something (sometimes semi-stupid) that runs afoul of big tech's automated policies and loses access to

Hey, seems there are a few typos/grammatical errors in the faq, might be due to the recent changes, just thought you should take another look. I’m on my phone otherwise I’d take screenshots and share.

Outrageously expensive to repair sure (though which car isn’t these days, my corrolla got into a fender bender and fixing the bumper was north of $1000), but I’m talking about always in the shop due to shoddy construction. Afaik that doesn’

Once you’re out of warranty BMW tend to “implode” like everything breaks at once. But even in warranty dealing with going to the dealership and getting the repair is a huge hassle vs just having a car that stays out of your way. Time is our

BMW in my circles has the reputation as being a brand you buy when you can afford to have a car in the shop most of the time. Most American brands have reputation as just being really poorly built and bad value props. Not sure how either of

At scale that’s relatively expensive though, $2.5x1billion is still 2.5 billion dollars. That money needs to come from somewhere…

This looks kinda interesting, but I would appreciate you being more upfront about what is free vs paid. In the article you make it sound the only thing paywalled is the discussion but when I went to sign up for the email it became clear tha

Lemmy could end in a worse situation: some hobby guy hosts his lemmy instance with w/e unique subs, one day he decides it’s too much work and take it offline. Boom it’s all gone and there’s no recourse. Here at least there’s a chance

Cool idea! nice to see these all in one place. one suggestion, on non-ultrawide screens when you scroll you no longer see the left labels, would be cool to have them float when you start scrolling left so they're always visible.

You’re missing the point. Just like most people have no idea how their post office functions, really. And most people have no idea how their email service functions except at the most basic level, they understand enough to use it. For most
