The leather link watch band is the most comfortable band I’ve ever used. Amazon still has them for 50$. half what I paid

Makes sense. I would have quit sooner if it was up to me.

I’m not reading anymore of this thread, but go move to the EU and request all the data those companies you mentioned have on you. You will see a truly staggering amount of your day to day info from some of them. Facebook and google are just advertising companies trying to get their thumbs in every pie they can convince enough people to buy into. Part of that is designing their products to require phoning home. The issue isn’t signing in. Signing in is just the trojan horse to make sure every bit of data they pull from you is tied to the right advertising account ID. They shouldn’t be allowed to continue to do that, even if they have enough money to lobby for its legality. Even if every single company on earth was freely doing it to the same degree people should still push for a change.

The business world is truly a slippery slope. Google made unethical digital advertising into a major market, and now even if they close shop somebody else will come fill the gap. The only way to put the power back in people’s hands is to regulate them out of existence but that will never happen if most people don’t even know it’s happening because you can’t even fucking complain about it on the internet without a hundred reply thread jfc

Not separated enough for me. I know all the big companies are bad, but I won’t touch google/fb hardware.

I really don’t understand this. All these search engine companies give millions of users a single button to create the most soulless art you’ve ever seen, but instead of caring about that they attack the tool that most enables the user to have control over their generation. You can argue that unlimited competition is bad for commission artists, but this attack is not “Pro Art”.

Using creative cloud isn’t a sin, but helping maintain Adobes industry stranglehold should be.

In many different areas. This is the per year registration fees in Ohio. These fees are meant to compensate for road damage, which is calculated based on vehicle weight. Except Ohio just said “well batteries are heavy, charge them.”

A lifted diesel super duty getting 12mpg will run you 0 dollars and 0 cents whereas even a plug in hybrid runs 150$ per year. Completely independent from the weight of the vehicle.

Biden can do what he wants but conservative states will constantly delay the transition to EVs, slowing adoption, infrastructure and the publics willingness at every opportunity.

If anybody reading this is voting against Biden because of Palestine (effectively a vote for trump under fptp) these are trumps #1 fans and bill payers

Pro trump is not pro Palestine.

 

Hello, when I relaunch the app, my control center shows ringer volume instead of media volume. If I go home or swap apps control center shows media volume until I relaunch. When I close the app it’s back to media. Lmk if you need more info.

If I see it up I always wonder why I turned it up so loud, turn it down, then sleep through my alarm 😅 I already had to set up an automation to fix my ringer after my car mutes it. I’m glad my boss isn’t a hardass. Maybe iOS 18 will add a systemwide alarm volume

So the iPad line mostly mimics the iPhone line again except the regular iPad and mini are left, unupdated, to become the SE line. the mini was literally all i was interested in seeing updated. I haven’t read much, was the price cut at least? *no it was not
