It’s just Tim’s Newton. We’ll get something better in ten years, like we got the iPhone. But I don’t know that it will come from Apple unless we get someone more creative in the leadership role.

Cook is chairman of the board now. He hasn’t really gone anywhere.

I don’t think this new CEO is going to last more than a year. He has all the charisma of Gil Amelio.

At least he shelved the Apple Vision headset. Hopefully he also canned the Apple Glasses and AirPods with camera that were rumored.

Ford sold many of the bestselling global sedans. They stopped making them because the profit margins are higher on SUVs.

Fuel economy hasn’t been a selling feature for a majority of buyers in the US since the 1970s. If it was, Ford wouldn’t have stopped shipping sedans here, and EVs wouldn’t need incentives and rebates.

A large section of the US market prefers to take out huge loans to buy an Escalade or a Ford F150 and then bitch about it when gas prices go up.

This is like trying to make “fetch” happen. No one is going to call it that.

You couldn’t find another source for this besides fox news?

So far mostly hitting the AR headset team (Apple Vision) from what I’ve been reading. Which makes me wonder if the reported Apple Glasses project has been scrapped or scaled back (we can only hope).

In turn, data centers will just pollute the air with their natural gas and diesel generators. It’s a lose/lose proposition.

Or said another way, 80% of drivers leave them on/use them. That sounds pretty good to me.

I wonder how many of these satellites are single-purpose and could be replaced with less satellites that do more things?

Also how many of them are just dead space garbage at this point that need to be removed from orbit? Maybe we should have a “one in/two out” policy or something. You wanna launch a new satellite into space, you gotta pay to remove two other objects first.

Really great info. Thank you for taking the time to share this.

Lol — They charge money for Windows 11???

Solar panels are cheap these days and end up paying for themselves in cost savings. Especially when you own the factory that makes them.

I have my doubts they turned off the face scanning at MSG just for her party. And I also wonder why she thought aligning herself with this venue was such a great idea.

See also the privacy-invading aggressiveness of most platforms, and the political ads and propaganda inundating people’s feeds. If social media had just remained a way to keep in touch with friends and post pictures, it would probably have remained popular.
