Did you happen to buy an apple vision headset?

Yeah the VW/Ferrari analogy is good, because as two cars they do essentially the same thing.

Also I think the group of people who are shelling out $4k for the AVR are going to be heavily biased to justify the expense. I don't think there's a $3000 difference between the two devices. Maybe $500.

The quest 3 does essentially the same at roughly 10x lower price. I say that because I think the price tag makes AVP a non starter for vast majority of families with kids. I think its out of reach price-wise even for a lot of professionals without kids tbh.

But also this is the first version. The original iPhone didn't have copy/paste or the ability to shoot video.

The software will continue to get refined and the hardware will get smaller. It'll eventually fit into roughly standard sized glasses and I think that's going to change everything

Its about $150 for an aftermarket carplay head unit, better to put effort into that

Didn’t need to invent a new wheel here. IP tunneling exists already over HTTPS so simply set that up and route literally any protocol over HTTPS.

It’d be nice if there was more control out of the box but the HN crowd would probably appreciate that it can be customized with a little hacking https://mazdatweaks.com/

Its not a garden. Gardens are horizontal with no dependencies between plants.

Infrastructure is a high rise building. Long term planning and careful maintenance is needed. And it shouldn't be necessary to replace the foundation every year or two.

Yeah, at this point I’ll only work on a Mac. I don’t have the time nor patience for the cheapskate alternatives.

Good riddance. Carvana was a nightmare of vehicle issues, months late trade-in payoff and revolving door customer support. I truly hope they go out of business.

It advances content by interest/topic as opposed to intentional divisiveness, follows or otherwise. You see more of what you watch.

There isn't another platform today that connects you as rapidly to people with shared interests. IG is trying with feeds

There is a setting to enable the STEM feed in the export version. Try not to be an ableist.

One angle of these bans is that TikTok provides rapid person to person sharing of information via rich multimedia, and live streaming of events.

Its harder to control a narrative and spread propaganda when people can see that others around the world are just like them, talk to them directly, and hear their stories.

The idea that China uses TikTok to control other countries I think is backwards. The platform actually enables significant info sharing between normal people, and we’re seeing this for example in the conflict in Gaza.

“Social Harmony” aka our ability to influence popular opinion

Uhm did you receive your settlement from their class action lawsuit?

No. Again. Tax dollars bailed out the banks, after they pocketed billions in profits from predatory arm and similar loans.

Who bailed out the home owners? No-one. They lost their homes, their credit was ruined. Decades worth of setback. But they deserved it? Please. It was a trap in the name of shareholder profits.

The problem is systemic and blaming the consumer is myopic at best.

As just one data point look into navient

Whose poor decision is that? The banks created those products, the banks profit from them massively, and the banks receive the socialized bailout using our money.

How exactly is being approved for a loan to buy a first home the fault of the purchaser?

We can shop in any grocery store trusting that the products are safe to consume. Meanwhile, banks are allowed to legally sell financial poison?

Sure, compare rates, terms, insurance, etc. But financial time bombs like you describe should be illegal. The banks should suffer the consequences of their greed. And the working class should not be left homeless as a consequence.

some are predatory. They are structured in a way that after years of on time payment the principal amount increases

School loans should not be modeled after payday loan sharks.

If there are demonstrably predatory mortgages in place then yes they should be forgiven, or at the the least converted to a low rate standard loan without mandatory insurance.

We need better laws and repercussions against screwing over the working class.

Music has never been in a better place? Do you work for Spotify?

Musicians are largely struggling while a few giant corps take all the money. Thats not a good place at all.

I think you are conflating “music” with “music consumers”

Honestly it should be both. Support artists deeply and ditch Spotify.

We shouldn't be complacent and let Spotify make earning a living even harder for artists.

Its realistically what you should be doing unless your machine is a test host itself.

This is exactly why I lag one major version behind the latest.

Its a lot easier to do when you own the hardware design and drivers

Ah yes lets pay them to aggregate and mishandle our PII because bots.

Oh please

They run laptop components so try more like 5-15W normally

Tbh second hand USFF or SFF PCs make excellent home servers. They have powerful x86_64 CPUs, are power efficient and can be had for sub $100

If they just would cap the fees it would be viable. But I’m not paying a $200+ cleaning fee on top of the nightly rate and other fees.

Apple provides security updates for not only the latest IOS, several past versions (and the phones which cant upgrade from them) still get updates with security fixes
