When people want moderation they cry at Zuck, when people get moderated they cry at Zuck. When people are given free and open systems they cry that it’s icky and weird.

Why? I'm under the impression that all VR products are shit. At least metas seem to be departing from the very boring gamer space.

That's not even the same product line...

Highest among all CPUs. This isn’t new for Apple. Their stuff frequently bests ryzens etc at single threaded perf

In this specific case it also takes some of the burden away from Feckless political campaigns that failed to effectively use the tools at their disposal. The public then doesn’t have as clear of a picture of who might actually be capable Of winning next time.

I really feel the news media in their crusade against tech really did the public a disservice by not explaining what happened precisely.

It’s not about whether these companies are in the right or not, but more about how we as a society address the consequences of how their products operate.

When the media mischaracterizes this stuff it makes the public perception's of what’s going on frankly becomes ridiculous and makes it easy for corporations to dismiss detractors as kooks.

Ahh, I see what you mean. When I read the original comment it seemed like a regular save and spend less approach. If some saving in index funds was obvious, I am sorry for my assumption.

And they work with adapters do they not? Do you really need hifi headphones at all times with your portable phone? Seems a little strange.

Is the headphone jack that much of a deal breaker? USB-c headphones seem pretty common now.

I just wanna know, what does it do when I dock? Are we talking iPad mini level kvm docking or iPad m-series?

I said “saving and not over spending”; do folks on HN really have trouble with reading and comprehension?

I said nothing of investments and growth.

I used my words carefully when I said "retire by merely 'saving and not over spending'".

Your brother in law did not merely save and not over spend, he built a business and sold it for a large payout.

They can charge as much as they think people will pay for.

Fact is, having a better pocket computer (that is your only pocket computer I might add) is probably going to have a lot of value for people.

The answer to this question seems obvious. There are no 42 year olds that retire by merely "saving and not over spending" when even one child is involved.

Do you think it was made at Urbana because it uses the uiuc license? I suppose you think everything that uses the mit license originated in cambridge
