I’m ok with YouTube. I pay for a large music service and get no YouTube ads.

Every other service has only made things worse. Netflix has done the least by not yet pushing ads.

They could relive major streets and create dedicated bus lanes.

They could prioritize the surface train stoplights.

They could create protected bike and scooter lanes.

Or they could blame the residents for trying to get around town.

All high rise office buildings should be incentivized to have residential space. Let’s try and fix the housing issues and reduce cars/traffic at the same time.

They literally couldn’t pay the devs. Netflix for instance flat out refused to have blackberry pay for 2 full time devs to maintain an app.

Netflix looked at the market share and determined that there was 0 benefit. The people that were on blackberry devices already had a Netflix account.

Additionally Blackberry store apps were compelling for devs. Dev feedback included ease of development and more importantly they made a lot more money on the blackberry store than on iOS/android, both because the cut was better and they could jack the prices up because the customers were not nearly as frugal.

To get into mobile would require a massive overhaul of windows apps to get them mobile-friendly

Oh look, that’s exactly what they did and now we have PWAs for lots of apps. Maybe MS is getting ready to take a stab at mobile again.

It’s possible they are both awful, but individually yes this report is rough to read.

Congratulations China! I’m hopeful the US can be collaborative competition!

Yikes.

Lmao.

Oh neat mine are grey though.

Why is science trying to make gym-bro mice?

This happened to me pretty much the same and it didn’t even make local news.

In many places if you’re found guilty of committing a crime and it’s “gang related” then the consequences go up. I think the same should happen to cops.

I’m not talking about the actions that can be debated, I’m talking about the ones where a fool did something egregious like tase a teacher for not obeying unnecessary instructions.

Small iterative improvements vs big “innovation” failures?

You can take my almonds and my beef, but not avocados. That’s the line.

I have both a gas and the cheapest induction range/oven combo I could find and the induction is way better.

People saying gas is better are just wrong.

Gas should be incentivized out of residential new construction, and probably banned from new multi family dwellings

Motorcycle race. Dudes bike caught on fire.

Ms makes it very obvious that O365 is available when you turn on a new machine.

We tried this already. California City is like the 3rd largest city in California. Planned cities mostly suck.

I get it. MS has a “free” rich text editor, it’s Word online. You can easily install any other simple rich text editor (is abiword still a thing?) on Windows. Wordpad probably has minimal usage.

Word pad is a rich text editor.
