Also a valid reason. I stick my audible altimeter in there too…so that as well.

If you tumble then yes, it can help there too. It’s usually banging it on exit or turbulence or somebody coming in a little hot to a formation that I’m happy I have it. Pretty sure if you hit the rear wing even with a helmet that’s gonna cause you some issues though.
I skydive and people ask why a lot of us wear helmets since it’s not saving you if you hit the ground. The plane or other people can hurt you plenty.
Let’s get this out of the way…I use windows, Mac, and Linux for various things. There is a ‘Select When Quality Updates Are Received’ in group policy editor (sorry home edition users) that allows you to delay the feature updates by a year. You still get the monthly security patches. My win11 box just updated to 23H2 and not 24H2. That gives me plenty of time to figure out how to unfuck what’s coming down the pipe.
I buy almost exclusively physical media. I don’t care about streaming so crunchy roll was just a thing I ignored. Then they bought like everything… Funimation and Rightstuf/Nozomi being the largest. I use to have probably a grand on preorder with rightstuf at any point in time. Talking easily 10K+ a year. I haven’t bought a damn thing off crunchy roll’s site. I don’t care for the company and their site sucks. Which is saying something cause rightstuf’s site was slow and clunky but it was simple and got the job done. Crunchy roll’s store site is just a giant ad for their streaming service that they also happen to sell stuff on.
Also despise that I had to talk with customer support multiple times to get off their damn mailing lists that they just signed everybody up for because they converted rightstuf accounts. The ‘unsubscribe’ link in the email was broken…hell it’s probably still broken. Even though that violates laws…clearly they don’t care about those.
The new thing is the fast food places are using the kiosks that use your phone number to text you when your food is ready at the counter. I can’t imagine the privacy policy on those is favorable.
It’s just hard boiled eggs…not as appealing to look at but it’s fine.
It’s your internet. Who cancels that without already moving to another ISP? I work from home so not having internet even for short durations is a non-starter. Forcing me to talk to someone is an absolute waste of everyone’s time. They have a zero percent chance of keeping me because I already left. I just want the bills to stop for a service I disconnected from.
I understand the whole ‘game’ for pricing/discounts but when you legitimately are leaving then this is just dumb. I think the whole game around discounts is dumb too but that’s capitalism.
Music royalties are weird. Somebody that understood it way better than me explained it probably better than I will. From what I remember there is basically a performance, lyrics, and music portion. So when an artist covers a song they only get the performance part. The original artist gets the other two parts(assuming the music/lyrics weren’t written by somebody else). Since Al is redoing the lyrics he gets the performance and lyrics part but he’s still sticking money in the original artists pockets for the music portion. Most artists are plenty happy to have Al use one of their songs.
Not enough AI PC sales. They need to push it out anyway. Consume all the CPU and power they can and then market AI PC’s as a way to improve performance and lower your power bill.
