(nor is a tick required!)

The “no, never saw a tick” anecdotes help support the obvious concept that a bullseye rash is not required to end up with chronic Lyme.

> My understanding is that the ticks only transmit disease after they have been attached long enough to become engorged

This understanding will age like milk.

That made the lack of features hurt more (the tech community being able to do them on Symbian phones, but not iPhone).

You’re a better commenter than this thread leads on.

You can downvote the truth, but can’t reply to it.

Typical modern Mozilla fans, really.

$500 with new 2 year agreement.

The steep pricing initially hindered sales; Apple discontinued the 4GB model and dropped the 8GB model to $399 (from $599) just a few months later.

It could certainly be used as a way to sell killing some technical debt for performance improvements to management, for anyone struggling to.

My home is now a place where people are mortified by the homeless, and literally give them things off of themselves, or offer ways to existentially assist, on-sight.

Maybe it’s the crushing disproportionate volume and nature of the poverty that each effective individual is confronted with that’s to blame - I still believe people are inherently good, but they do give up pretty easily if you make it socially acceptable to ignore.

I will no longer choose to live in places it’s socially acceptable to ignore.

This comment made me think of AirPods usage like eye-glasses usage.

It was probably a sweat, for most except the highest of leadership.

Probably not comfortable for them, either.

But did Bill Gates, for example, really fear existentially for MS?

I’m sure there’s a lot of nervous, scrambling people at Google right now, getting back to my point.

> it almost cost them their company.

Boy, they put on a great show.

I wonder if this Google antitrust thing is going to end up a similar nothing-burger due to their deep protection.
