Me and my team take our site down the old fashioned way. Code copied from some rando on the internet.

My guess is that the motivation was user feedback and keeping things simple so they’re easier to repair.

So, a YouTuber pulled a fat Mac?

I’m more annoyed that Nvidia is looked at like some sort of brilliant strategist. It’s a GPU company that was lucky enough to be around when two new massive industries found an alternative use for graphics hardware.

They happened to be making pick axes in California right before some prospectors found gold.

And they don’t even really make pick axes, TSMC does. They just design them.

both sides of the cake

This two sided cake analogy is a new one for me.

The article’s author seems to think this is an IPO play. Their revenue would spike over 2025 and would inflate the growth metrics for a 2026 IPO.

Does Canva realize that they have more in common with Microsoft’s free power point templates than Adobe CS?

At least they get a chance to leave a 1 star review on their way out.

I wish this was an article with some analysis. This is literally just the press release from Panasonic’s marketing department.

IMHO, it’s best to get a TV with CES and a good amount of HMDI inputs with newer specs.

Don’t connect the TV to the internet, and use external media players. That’s what I do with my Samsung.

Basically a lot of shows by former Fox News hosts and other far right vodcasters who are too extreme to be promoted on more mainstream platforms.

Title had me thinking we’d get a 1 hour special with an AI generated Oprah. Can we have some pot gummies and that instead?

I’m in the light use camp, and I agree. Things can dry out before you ever get a chance to empty the tank.

That said, I have a small place, and I don’t like to dedicate shelf space to a an object that rarely gets used, so I store a small (child’s shoebox sized) color printer in a drawer. And unfortunately, no one makes a color laser that small.

I might just end up getting a black and white laser because there are few companies that make tiny B&W lasers.

Here’s the second iteration of the OG patent.

Originally the simply device on the left was the one plunger to rule them all. It works in sinks and toilets. The flange and the concept of a toilet-specific plunger was a later concept.

Possibly, but these technology are a decade old, their product roadmaps still look very robust, and a lot of drivers actually base new purchase decisions on that feature’s availability.

IMHO, it’s low risk, and if it does get killed, oh well. Voice control and a dash mounted phone isn’t the total end of the world.

I can speak for Volvo and Audi’s platforms over the past 5-10 years. I spent a lot of times using those. They’re connected up the wazoo, but they also work just fine if you stop paying for cloud connectivity or get into a remote area.

You basically lose access to advanced maps, streaming apps, and being able to remotely control / monitor your car with your phone.

When I briefly looked at a Telsa, it looked like those things were kind of in a similar boat. Biggest problem with Tesla is that, since they don’t support CarPlay or Android Auto, you -need- a cloud subscription if you want streaming apps and maps. Other cars can pipe that into the center console through Apple or Google’s projection systems.

People stop paying for smart car’s online services all the time.

You typically lose access maps or only get basic offline maps without traffic and charging stations listed. You also lose the ability to use streaming apps, the ability to remotely control locks, windows, cameras and climate from your phone, stolen vehicle tracking, alarm notifications, etc.

But if you have CarPlay / Android auto, the good maps and streaming apps can be pumped in from your phone.

Probably just should said “phone key” instead of assuming NFC. It looks like a lot of these cars use other technologies to unlock without a fob.
