I have 20/20 vision and a pretty normal desk setup. I run my 32 4K at 100% scaling in Windows, and while I could maybe push it down a little smaller, some of the least PPI-aware interfaces and text would start to be too small.

If you're running 6K scaled to 150%, you basically just have a slightly sharper 4K monitor - effectively 0 extra space. If you're not running it scaled, I'm betting you're sitting closer to the monitor than is recommended for long term use (or have like 20/10 vision).

You said you wished the screens had a smaller size? You'd want a smaller than 28in screen? Wouldn't that get pretty uncomfortably close to view, even with scaling?

I'd love the ability to have AVP immersion with my MBP on a flight, and combined with Airpods, you'd be able to block out everything. I don't need to walk around and wouldn't need to interact through it. It's like transparency for Airpods: an overengineered alternative to just taking an airpod out (or in this case, lifting the headset up).

If you bought an iPhone Mini or an Air, but that model is gone at T+3 years, that's a lot more likely to result in you looking to Android, than if you bought an iPhone 13 and want to upgrade to an iPhone 16/17.

Scrap the passthrough cameras, the LCD eyes, and all that complexity.

I think my broader point is people don't do so well in unusual circumstances either: blizzards, heavy rain, dust storms, etc. They'll hydroplane, drive into stopped traffic, etc. We need to decide if we'll hold self-driving cars to some unreasonable standard of perfection or accept them once they are X safer than a human benchmark, even if they still have Y rate of failure per million miles.

My point was more that a self-driving car going into water isn’t some unreasonably bad action, as people do it all the time.

If we set the bar for self-driving to be as safe as a human driver, or even 2x as safe, this behavior would still happen.

Work harder, earn more, or make do with less - they chose to take on two 18 year financial commitments and now are complaining that despite the bevy of financial benefits society already gives them compared to individuals without children, it’s not enough.

Make a plate, set it in front of a window, snap a picture.

I think AI is amazing, but equally amazing is people’s laziness and lack of taste when it comes to applying it.

Hell, looking back a decade or two, the PIIGs would’ve been a bit at odds with the other countries purely over debt.

Does the EU really repressing a best case for the common citizen in terms of unity and aligned society?

"Should" is fine because I'm disputing the very idea that this is an issue society should be responsible for solving. If I want a 4 bedroom home or lobster for dinner, buy it, then complain that I've financially overextended myself, is that society's fault or did I go beyond my means?

>A few states are working on restricting birth control, no worries.

So there are no roadblocks preventing them from using contraception in the past or currently. Not much point in talking about "working on" if you're discussing families now...

If Timmy is on Instagram, John’s health isn’t at risk. If Timmy comes to school with measles, John’s health is at risk, and vaccination has been shown to reduce the risk to both Timmy and John.

They don’t get a say in your kids diet or religion or choice of sport.
