<p>If you haven't created a Gmail or an Instagram account in a while you might be surprised how aggressive it is. For instance, try doing this without verifying your phone.<p>Both can ban you right away because they had to ramp up their anti-spam protections. Pretty much everyone already have an account, so most people creating new ones are just that, spammers.</p>

<p>I'm still using my time capsule. I don't really trust the hard drive inside of it, but I basically use it to connect to an SSD that I attached to it. Unfortunately, Nest Wi-Fi, that I use as a router doesn't have any USBs, unlike some cheaper routers. I know that it's, I know that it will be gone after Tahoe. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do about this. I mean, I don't really want to fool on us<p>I mean, it's basically just like a time machine backup plus, uh, a little bit of some older files that I don't want to keep on my main Mac.<p>seems like any NAS would take way more space than I would love to. I suppose one alternative would be actually getting some kind of like Beelink PC and then maybe setting up a proper home server, moving some of my side projects in there, running plex from it. The problem is that the current ram prices, it's a surprisingly expensive solution.</p>

<p>In my experience their phones last far longer than Androids. Only in the last few years Samsung and Pixel have switched to at least 7 years (now it's the question of whether the hardware will suffice).<p>Until it broke, I was still using my 2018 iPad just last year.</p>

Such an utter fantasy.<p>The only way payments go to AI music if people would actually listened to it.<p>Of course there's some fraud going on. Any financial system has it. It's still minimal and that's precisely why you know of such cases.</p>

<p>Their electric latches are stupid and should be illegal. 
Screens don't add distractions, certainly not more than any Uber driver juggling two phones has. People really overestimate that imaginary issue, especially when every car on the road has a screen with a CarPlay now.<p>Care-free drivers could be the result of their marketing for sure but ultimately it's on them and this is precisely the bias I'm talking about.<p>Look, I do drive a Model 3. I like some parts and hate the others. Calling this "Autopilot" should have been illegal. But it does sound quite weird to me to insinuate they aren't safe as cars when European agencies found no safety issues with them.</p>
