Thank you for the quick response. All my questions answered.

Yeah Tor is just straight up unusable for most sites.

Fair point

PS5 digital edition prices have increased across Europe too. Not even restricted to the Americans.

I’ve said this before and will say it again. The only tech companies that should be allowed to buy Chrome are Canonical and its equivalents.

One is remarkably worse than the other

You compared smartphones to previous tech such as Walkmans, and I explained how they’re nowhere near the same in the extreme case (unsupervised access). No school is gonna confiscate the phones as long as the kids listen. And the kids need to learn to listen to parents and teachers. Discipline is sorely missing in the new generation. Look at that series “adolescence “ to see the real effects of giving kids a smartphone.

And jamming is expensive and ineffective (you’ll end up jamming nearby devices not on school property too).

Yeah I think the adverse effect of handing an iPhone to a 10 year old in Atlanta, when that teen is still highly impressionable unrestricted and unsupervised access to the internet is far worse than handing a kid a Gameboy on which they can only game, or a Walkman on which the worst thing they can do is listen to Cardi B.

I think that might help, asking for volunteers. Segregating them based on their abilities (LinkedIn profile for instance). There are a lot of people who have a couple of hours a week they can spend for such a cause. Please check with your colleagues and see if asking for volunteers is possible.

Donating money is also an option, but in this economy, it’s not sustainable to donate significant sums on a recurring basis for most.

Unpopular opinion: Win 11 works well for me, and is visually better than Win 10. Although it’s a fairly recent PC. Although if they keep pushing more telemetry and ads, I’m moving over to Ubuntu.

Cries in German

Which is why shared cars as opposed to everyone or every household owning one makes sense. You’ll be more thoughtful of when you need it rather than using it because it’s always there.

Other than gamers, there’s a huge share of enterprise Windows users. And they’re not likely to shift OS, because of IT admin issues. Others in this thread have commented on how Apple is struggling to get devs to build native games compared to Windows.

Sure the number of home PC users might decline, one can always hope.

No, he’s not. Have you looked at commercial real estate especially around dedicated business districts in cities such as London, Paris and Frankfurt? Long story short, a lot of businesses (big ones such as HSBC) are moving to city centers and into smaller offices.

Angry baguette noises…

But yeah most houses in France don’t have a bidet. They wipe

That’s a lot of speculation for a single cable

Headphone jack means I can use the same earphones for years and not throw away my wireless earphones after a year (of heavy use). Whole point of Airpods was to create a new revenue stream for Apple, not just make your life easier.

Checked Apple forums, you’re right. It’s 200GBs shared

Best retirement plan

If they can’t hold on to these, they should just return them.

Even if they could hold on, they should return them, but clearly aren’t willing to.
