Ah yes, the classic tech guys on Hacker News that fear technology.

It's not a lie. All you need to do is watch the unveiling.

The most important bit (and reason it's not a lie) is when Jobs demoed scrolling.

"So... here i have all my songs... how do i scroll? I just... take my finger, and swipe".

You can hear the crowd visibly gasp. Every product before was arrow-keypad based and was not designed for touch. Plus it didn't have a desktop level OS, plus the capabilities of a desktop level OS. There was no equivalent.

isn't that what GLP1s are for (before you get full blown type 2)

Always seemed to me like RAM value is much more irrelevant on phones since every app is sandboxed and uses APIs for background operations.

RAM is also always consuming battery, so there are reasons to minimize it. I wonder what the RAM usage efficiency is between iOS and Android in real-world, installed-app-usage usecases.

this guy really blew up after that bridge went down in Baltimore

He's got less than 20% of Tesla now, but he owns nearly half of SpaceX... bet you he'd be so so sooooooooo much richer if that went public too

was that Bluetooth or UWB? Cause that's like saying VHS vs. 4K

Marketing and PR humans were writing sentences like this one long before LLMs

It's ok, lotsa people have the money for it.

unless, you know, it's about blowing stuff up

How can she slap?

I think this sums it up quite easily: https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/edrxpl/california_ex...

they're focusing on booster reuse and ship tile slash entry reliability. Ship reuse will come after.

reason they're going hard on booster reuse is those 33 engines, they cost lotsa money to be dumping them over and over.

and calls it Actually-Open AI

You skipped right over Sopranos

Question: How come aircraft can so easily get jammed then? They use GPS for precise positioning in flight, so I'm guessing they have the very best antennas...

Am I the only one who expected a NYT article about how "Surrealism is (100 'real' emoji)"

yes, it's also what helped them solve CRS-7

You sound like "making art" is only the painter in his Brooklyn studio. But it's video game designers, movie animators, videographers, graphic artists, and more that work in agencies and marketing departments of all companies that will be affected.

the difference is that NASA only has seats for 6-month ISS missions, not a couple weeks like Axiom missions. Totally different.

NASA forced Axiom to have the mission commander be an ex-NASA Astronaut for safety purposes. The first mission had 4 guys running around the ISS not knowing what's up.

They can go to Russia like they did for 10 years after the Shuttle retired.

This applies for literally every country except the US and China.

It's not like any of the other G20 countries (not to mention the entire rest of the world) have anything close to "a US tech sector" or anything approaching the level of engineering/science/product/manufacturing capability of the US.

California is where the entire world population goes to when they wanna make stuff.

As others have said, SMS is fully interoperable up to and including groups and MMS.

Your problem comes from that fact that Apple cleverly introduced way more capability in the very same Messages app, for other Apple users only.

None of the complaining like yours would be happening if Messages was left as SMS only and apple had shipped a separate iMessage app, which is exactly what Whatsapp is. But there's Apple's forte. They have Bluetooth, but buying Airpods automagically works better.

I also 1000000% guarantee you that the designers spent a LOT of time analyzing the green bubble colour to make very it a slightly (but not too much) aggravating green. There are many many more pleasant shades of green.

Edit: OK yeah, a designer explained it here: https://uxdesign.cc/how-apple-makes-you-think-green-bubbles-...

he's saying that all the better stuff about Androids like replaceable batteries are gone on 1000$+ models, so you're left with a device that has iphone like capability... with worse apps and UI.

Grok? Just kidding

is there something new here?

then... just use the Tesla app?

This is like Spatial Audio. So many things have been built and rolled out in support of Vision Pro. Obviously it'll be the A17 there too.

they would have cancelled a long time ago if they could
