Folks started becoming cool with buying off Amazon, iTunes and Bandcamp ... etc. But in the age of you own nothing, it’s all a subscription and a license that can be taken away at anytime, regardless of what you were charged or what the TOS says. The enshitification and over confidence of capitalism has caused this.…

“Apple has said the battery pack on its $3,500 headset is not hot-swappable, though with a simple tool can easily extricate the rather nostalgic connector.”

It would be wild if a tear-down of that thick cable reveals that it’s actually TWO standard lightning cables and the fat end is just an adapter to combine the two.

I’d say the sarcastic tone was pretty obvious. 

The fact that Musk even considers that whatever the hell he did merits a compensation package 6 times higher than the combined compensation of the top 200 corporate CEO’s in America is a testament to how deranged he is.
Aside from being an egotistical asshole, Musk has no regard for Tesla shareholders, who should not…

This list is nothing without a classic Droid!

If you can’t get the corporate ruling you want from freakin’ Delaware, your corporation is the problem.  

As an aside, re Elon’s comments about never incorporate in Delaware.

From what I remember, it was called the Chocolate because it was in a ‘candy bar’ form factor, and the first colorways for it was a very dark, nearly black, brown, name ‘Dark Chocolate’. Then all the additional colorways were variants of ‘chocolate’. The green one was ‘Mint Chocolate’, red was ‘Cherry Chocolate’,…

Mine is the Alias phone from Verizon...all the benefits of a flip phone plus a full-size keyboard for texting...with limited internet (it was a while back) AND it looked like nothing else anyone had.

I’d give it about an hour before someone has uploaded a 3D-printable battery holder for the back of the headset. History shows that, although putting the battery on the headset makes it heavier, and theoretically more uncomfortable, the better weight distribution ends up making it feel lighter.

Yep. Hell, where I work, even those who were full time WFH before the pandemic are being mandated to return to office.  Don’t live near one of the offices designated as a “hub?” Move or quit; those are your options.

That’s a terrible justification for return to office. 

I’ve never let looking like a dork stop me from doing fun stuff. Shit, ten years ago the VR experience consisted of being tethered by a fat cabled dreadlock to a PC surrounded by massive towers in all four corners of the room, and there was lots of dorky fun to be had. While the price point definitely gives me pause,…

Of course it was nothing but a power grab. Just about every single productivity metric went up for most companies during that year, as did profits.

Tax files and records really need to be a matter of public record. So these wealthy assholes have nowhere to hide their dirt. Granted, that would undermine all the time and money the wealthy have spent gutting the IRS so they could hide their dirt in plain sight because nobody had the time to look anymore, so clearly…

Yup. Nothing signifies the level of contempt that the wealthy have for the rest of society quite like making it a crime to disclose their dirty laundry (fraud, theft, corruption, etc) to the public. They didn’t spend hundreds of millions of dollars buying the politicians needed to wage a decades-long campaign to…

He basically shared that the rich do not pay taxes and mostly everything for them is just write-offs.

He deserves a medal in recognition of service to the public at large and a pardon from POTUS.
