I didn't realise it was European, but I bought a Nothing mainly because it was one of the few options with an unlockable bootloader. I'm going stock this time, but at least I'll have the option to unlock it if I change my mind later.
I remember getting ice cream from McDonald's - must've been 15 years ago. It was somewhat nice, but then the whole "the ice cream machine is broken" thing started and I haven't bothered any more. Can't tell about the rest of the food, but I share the sentiment that if it's getting shittier and shittier, you shouldn't support it.
I'd argue that there was human effort put in to develop it and make it learn how it's learning now - but it shouldn't be used to copy others' art and make "art" on its own. Instead I'd really like it to see help diagnose and treat diseases, prevent crime and things like that. Ultimately it should be a tool to enhance human reasoning, not something to replace human creativity.
Been there, done that, and colleagues usually complain in the PRs that those one liners don't need to be separate functions and are perfectly fine when used inline.
Common scenario to collect gullible people and scam them later - or just to get them to like a certain page and then sell the page with the likes.
Local supermarket chain is giving away free cars, just like this post and add a comment. Oh, and by the way the page was created two days ago and has 15 likes - must be legit!
I'm not sure if the same (or any at all) noise reduction works when using speakerphone. I kind of understand the sentiment for using it - looking back at COVID times and the "don't put the phone to your face, it's dirty", but even that was a bit exaggerated - and I still agree that there are still way too many people using speakerphone when they shouldn't (voice-only calls and all).
From time to time I see people taking video calls on speaker in public (in enclosed spaces where everyone else can hear); in situations like this I'm always tempted to pop into the frame and say "HELLO!" since apparently the call is public, not private, and that maybe they'll get a hint. I've never actually done it since I have the common decency, but others, sadly, just don't seem to take social cues.
Just use a list. Untick anything that you finish or you see needs to be bought (or add it if it's not there), tick anything you buy at the store. Share the list across the household so that everyone (hopefully) does the same.
Directional cables kind of make sense in an analogue, single-ended connection if it’s about the shielding being connected to ground only on one side… although I haven’t tried it in practice. Still, it has nothing to do with signal directionality, just noise rejection. The ground lift switch on some devices does the same.
I'm prone to believing that a lot of those things presented as "leaks" are actually the company in question doing it by themselves behind the curtains - because let's face it - people want sensationalism and they won't shut up about something like that.
Someone forgot an unreleased phone at a bar? I call bullshit.
