Yep, this handheld will be all about subscriptions, ads, and data harvesting.

The hardware will be good and the software will still be buggy like the xboxes because it’s windows and microsoft doesn’t care about making windows a good experience for users. I hope I’m wrong.

Some consoles like to be swaddled every now and then.

We saw what Trump did last time he was in office, and it was really bad, but it was recoverable.

Except putting people in cages at the border and separating children from families. Many families still have not been reunited.

Except the million people that died from Covid-19 due to the government putting the economy over human lives.

Except the stuffing of judicial positions, including the supreme court, that same court that basically made him a king and free from any consequences from all the laws he broke.

Except for our air, land, food and water becoming more toxic and polluted due to Trump’s rollback of EPA protections.

Except all the pregnant women who are dying or forced to carry their rapist’s baby due to that packed court overturning roe v wade.

Except the people of color who rebelled and rioted during the george floyd protests but then the government showed up in unmarked vans and took people away, while the police shot more innocent people and busted heads, and almost nothing changed for the better regarding police violence.

Except the trans people who are now illegal in the state of Florida for having a driver’s license that matches their gender identity, or the bounty on trans people in a town in Texas, or the governor of Texas trying to get lists of trans people to hunt down and prosecute. Or insurance companies refusing to cover trans-related healthcare. Or trans people being shunned by their peers and excluded from sports. Or the violence against LGBTQ people that’s doubled in the last year. All enabled and emboldened by Trump and Trumpism.

I haven’t recovered from any of this shit.

With or without Trump, the new normal is fascism in America. Every american needs to fight every bad policy, every bad law, every bad decision, every threat – every day – until there are no more fascists in power.

Yes absolutely. Others mentioned some of these: Gazelle ( i have one and it’s amazing), Riese and Müller, Stromer, Tern, Bulls, Cube, Urban Arrow, and many others. Anything with a Bosch motor is probably worth considering.

Shimano gearing, Enviolo hubs and Rohloff hubs are all good.

Look for a brand and model that doesn’t skimp on brake quality.

Another effect these oversized vehicles have is that they are generally safer for the occupants in the event of a crash, which means the driver doesn’t have to worry about their safety or self-preservation as much, which means they crash into things more often from not paying close attention to their surroundings.

Unfortunately the rest of us who may get hit by one of these oversized vehichles don’t have the luxury of being safer and not dying.

Same. Flying has become such a terrible experience that I refuse to take part in it anymore. With the overbooking resulting in people getting kicked off planes, price-gouging customers, constantly late flights, stranding people without compensation, people packed in so tight that no one is comfortable, lack of cleanliness, constitutional rights violations, stealing luggage and items in luggage, violations of people’s bodies…I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to call it cruelty to the passengers.

“mishandled customer service”

That is not the appropriate term for what happened!

I really hope they actually fixed the dock display issues and blank screen problems when waking from sleep or switching displays.

I’ll dig my dock out of the closet, update it, and see what happens. Fingers crossed.

And for those who don’t know, an e-bike may have a 250 - 1000+ watt motor.

True, but as far as I know, no city-approved rental company is renting bikes with anything greater than 750watts, as it would be a major liability, especially when the rental companies don’t offer helmets.

If anyone’s city is offering e-bikes with motors over750 watts, I would be very interested to hear about it.

Permission Manager X gives the user fine grain control over pretty much every permission an app has, moreso than the built in Android permissions settings. I was trying to use it to keep certain apps from starting automatically at boot.

As far as the hardware tweaks, my Xperia has an “assistant button” on the side of the phone, but since I don’t use google assistant or anything, Xposed Edge Pro lets me remap it to do basically anything, even when the screen is off. I have it set to play/pause my music even when the screen is off, but only if headphones are connected.

AdAway, AFWall+ (for restricting network access to apps), Root File Explorer (needed to get my watch working with GadgetBridge), Permission Manager X, Xposed Edge Pro (for hardware keys remapping), Pixels (for a hardware display fix)

Sony Xperia 1 iii – LineageOS w/microG

It happens in religious schools regularly.

+1 for philips.

The problem is most of what the big box hardware stores in the US are selling are junk brands. And they won’t even offer basics like a philips 75-watt-equivalent soft-white led in their stores.

The junk brand bulbs will fail in my kitchen light fixture after a year (they start flickering). The philips bulbs have never failed for me.

A properly designed and produced led bulb should last like 20 years.

The 4th Circuit court is out of their minds on this ruling.

Yes.

As someone who is sensitive to noise, I hated the lack of adequate standards regarding wall thickness and/or sound proofing. And the mail thief.

Really? Performance-wise, Firefox on Android runs great for me. No battery drain.

It is lacking in a lot of features though.

I think you are right. I wanted to add that often times people will have a strong sense of justice or revenge and want to see something bad happen to a person who did bad things.

Other times when people call for someone’s death, it’s because they don’t believe that there is any other way to stop the harm that person is causing. This tends to be the case when political figures start violating the civil and human rights of their constituents.

Well, fuck Capcom I guess.

I agree with the city on this one. Until the issues regarding user safety, reckless driving, maintenance, and proper storage locations are addressed and solved, e-scooters should not be rented out like this.
