2002 was actually quite late in the Palm era. The iconic Palm V, for instance, dates back to 1999. And BlackBerry had a mature smartphone by 2002. Nothing compared to an iPhone of course, but quite capable.

That's for a court to decide. It's certainly reasonable to guess that that court case is coming. The only question is how soon.

This is cool, but it'd be nice if they had evaluated Apple Watch, which is far more common than the devices they measured for. I've been tracking sleep for years with mine. My sense is that it's pretty accurate, but the problem is, I'm asleep during the time in which I could attempt to verify this! ;)

This whole thing definitely looks highly anecdotal, rather rare, and basically 100% certain to be a bug. No way is Apple quietly forcing Sonoma upgrades on purpose; this wasn't intentional. Apple Support's responses to some affected users appear to confirm this.

Overuse of water is unverifiable? No it's not. Alarming reduction of water available in soil for plants is unverifiable? No it's not. Rising salinity in fresh water supplies is unverifiable? No it's not. Global temperature increases and increased volatility in weather is unverifiable? No it's not. Alarming increases in extinction of species is unverifiable? No it's not. Increases in CO2 and other pollution are unverifiable? No, they are most certainly not.

What are you even talking about?

Please cite support for your claim that effects of surpassing these boundaries are linear.

The people who actually know the science in these areas do not agree with you. Specifically with regard to global warming, the science has been clear on this for decades now: past around 1.5C, we risk cascading effects that could be uncontrollable. This is really fairly common in natural systems: if you mess it up, past a certain boundary effects accelerate and are uncontrollable.

Or maybe he was talking about Trump nominating a new FAA head who illegally retaliated against a pilot who was a whistleblower at Delta regarding safety concerns.

It's not anticompetitive because you're misunderstanding what Apple Messages fundamentally is.

It's not just a protocol. It's a very expensive service platform that Apple runs as a service to its users. Apple is simply not obligated to let Android users use that platform and derive all its benefits for free. It's not.

This isn't anticompetitive; it's an example of Apple being simply better at competing in this particular arena.

The fact that your social circle has certain dynamics doesn't change this at all, of course.

The way to go: basil. You never have too much basil! And if you somehow manage to, a couple nice batches of pesto can use up basically any quantity of basil, the pesto can be frozen and keeps forever, and it's radically better than store-bought.

I also recommend cherry tomatoes. More snackable, easier to use them up.

Point of order: normal hybrids are not overcomplicated and they're a very mature technology that works great.

That simply doesn't matter. Tumblr just needs to succeed in ANY slice of the market it can find. A small slice would do nicely.

The best bet would be the slice it originally appealed to, with its original kinds of content, in the original medium it was in.

Tumblr did fine before app stores ever existed, and could do perfectly well without them now as well. Web is enough.

If it were renewable, you wouldn't need to "find" a "pocket" of it. That's not what renewable means.

It's totally understandable that you don't get it; I didn't either, until I finally bought one. First of all it's the amazing consistency of the rice you get. Second, it's so forgiving. Too much water? Not enough? Machine adjusts and your rice is perfect anyway. Not ready to use the rice yet, because the rest of the dinner is behind schedule? No problem. Leave it in there. For hours if you have to. Keeps it warm and ready. Need to leave the house for a while? Set the timer, it will have the rice ready when you get back. Even if that's 10 hours later.

It's awesome.

We finally sprung for a Zojirushi a couple years ago. Not the crazy $1100 model, just one of their midrange ones that normal people buy. It's awesome. Set it and forget it. Absolutely perfect rice every time: sushi rice, brown rice, basmati, jasmine, anything you want to throw at it. From 1 cup at a time all the way up to seemingly metric tons of the stuff. :)

Great product at a great price. They have a lot of models in the $200-$300 range. Reviews are consistently great.

Any recommended resources for determining which milkweed might be native in a given area?

Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy to me. Toyota has always leaned into hybrids and away from full-electric models. They just aren't very good at competing in the full-electric market. So it makes sense for them to issue a self-serving "forecast" and simultaneously announce that they're pushing hybrids instead.

You need to be more careful about how you use "normal". And "natural", for that matter. All of the intersex and trans stuff has been around and has been "normal" for millennia.

Mini-HDMI doesn't require a dongle. Just get the right cable. They're just as cheap as a normal HDMI cable.

Orders of magnitude, plural? So you're saying that Todd is inevitably at least 100x better than Wirecutter?

No, he's not. Wirecutter is in fact extremely useful and reliable, in my experience. This one dude is not 100x better than that. Perhaps in some cases he's slightly better, sure. He is obviously not "orders of magnitude" better.

Also broken CAPTCHA page for me.

This sounds like a feature, not a bug. To the extent that is the case, all of those thousands of ISP lawyers would now become incentivized to reduce the complexity of the bullshit fee structures you're talking about.

Apparently this has to be reiterated:

https://xkcd.com/1357/

No. In fact, given the dishonest behavior of ISPs, the FCC should go even further, and require all ISPs to list the full sticker price of any offered services, and ONLY the full price, in all advertising.

They shouldn't even be allowed to list a price that doesn't yet include the fees. No asterisks. No appendices. No see below. No fine print. Just list the real price. Always.

This isn't about anything political; it's not about Fox News. It's a local FOX affiliate, or at most, a few local FOX affiliates. Has nothing to do with Fox News.

FOX affiliates aren't really political at all.

Just use forScore, which is what every single professional musician I know uses. It's vastly better software, it's been around a lot longer, and the company isn't evil.

More like for the life of that particular service, which could be weeks or decades.

I didn't downvote you, because I prefer just refuting your argument. I do believe you made the argument in good faith.

But it's completely absurd. Was there a degree of platform moderation to attempt to reduce covid disinformation, or at least label it as such? Yes. But was there anything remotely resembling effective "censorship" that made it at all difficult to reach "eyeballs" with bogus antivaxxer narratives? No. Of course not. The claim is ludicrous on its face. We were all bombarded with BOTH sides throughout the pandemic.

Americans don't buy cars anymore, though; not really. They buy ludicrous gigantic heavy pickups and SUVs. So what we're really talking about is getting decent range into oversized pickups that their owners want to accelerate like sports cars and still have a nice air-conditioned interior even when it's 150 degrees on the pavement due to climate change.

1. No, it's not silly.

2. No, the ownership is not in public records, as this story makes clear. Who precisely is behind this seems quite vague.

3. The fact this has been "openly" (whatever that means) happening for 5 years is irrelevant.

4. No, this is begging the question. "Everyone" clearly does not know, at all, what they (who is they?) are doing.

5. What kind of energy infrastructure, precisely?

6. What's the source of your intense desire to deflect on this topic?
