chillel··on T-Mobile Reaches Agreement to Acquire Mint Mobile for Up to $1.35B
Magenta MAX is T-Mobile's unlimited data plan; $170/mo for 2 lines. 2 lines with unlimited data with Mint is ~$60/mo. You are paying $35/mo because you're only getting 5GB data. Check how much similar plans cost in India, Europe, Israel, UK (spoiler: they are drastically cheaper).

You are delusional if you think T-Mobile and the other big network providers offer good value for money.

Having recently switched to Mint after years of being swindled by T-Mobile, I'm really sad to see this news.

chillel··on Robotic Kitchen Automation Levels
Most people don't like to cook or don't care enough to do it themselves. The average household spends an inordinate amount on takeout and that figure will only grow [1]. One could argue 'dark kitchens' are dystopian... food prepared by chefs emulating the menus of restaurants with which they have no affiliation. This has become common in cities all over the world. Deliveroo's dark kitchen network started off using recycled shipping containers [2]. Those who have to prepare meals for multiple mouths (aka parents) eventually get burnt out by cooking.

I love cooking, but I don't see this as dystopic; the kitchen is ripe for technological revolution, and I welcome the democratization of good and (hopefully) healthy food.
