Have you looked into bone conduction headphones? I’ve had a set for about 3 years now and it’s still going strong. It has its pros and cons for sure, but I’m a huge fan. Mine is the Openrun Pro by Shokz. Maybe a hair beyond your budget, but should last really well for you

I mean, that’s step 1? It’s not like they can do an instantaneous cutover, they’ll need to figure out what’s vital enough to deserve buttons, come up with a design/layout for that, find a supplier for them, get them in, start assembling the cars with them… Honestly they’ve probably already done a lot of that behind the scenes already before saying anything publicly. Point is, it’s not like there’s a button in the factory to start making cars with buttons instead.

Triangulation of what, exactly? GPS already triangulates your position based on what it receives from multiple satellites, yeah?

A job? As in, any job at all? Sooooo, what do we do with these people with no bootstraps to pull?

I mean, you’re not wrong, but it’s also a legal term. If you pay someone money for something, they can always pay you back. That’s not an irreparable harm.

If (for example) you wanted to say something about someone but you have an NDA that’s in dispute, you could be prevented from saying anything until that’s settled because you can’t un-say something the same way

This sounds like the work of a developer. If you want to take a plot of land and sell it for $2x/m², it’s entirely possible… But it may take $3x/m² worth of improvements if you’re not careful.

Frankly, if you have to ask these kinds of questions Lemmy is not the place to get the answers. You can get a college degree in this kind of thing, and it seems like you’d need to start at the very basic level.

That’s a basic economics thing that doesn’t have an easy answer. But basically, at lower prices, people generally demand a higher quantity of something. Raise the price, and people start to think twice and consider other options. Supply is the opposite: at a higher price, more of a product will be produced (or in the case of pre-owned land, landowners are more likely to cash out). At lower prices, people won’t bother.

So in the case of land, price is affected by what people want, but also what’s available. If there is a lot of open space and that’s what everyone wants, groovy! But if people want limited amounts of tree land, prices are going to skyrocket for that and people will look at open land as an alternative.

You’re putting your priority of beauty on others, who seem to prioritize function if they do hobby farming (in which case, trees could get in the way of whatever they’re trying to do with the land)

Neither preference is wrong. In theory prices should reflect supply and demand.

bragging with Windows supremacy

I don’t think that’s as common as you think it is. Most Windows users see Windows as part of the computer, a tool to get the job done. As a DIY’er (basically a tool normie) I don’t brag about the supremacy of my Kobalt tools, I just drill the damn hole

Very similar time frame for me… I always thought that preps were more of an upper-class group. Maybe there’s a little overlap between those two groups though.

Every other Nintendo console shakes things up pretty massively, the next one is mostly a horsepower upgrade with no major innovation

NES / SNES (home console gaming in general)

N64 / GameCube (viable 3D graphics)

Wii / Wii U (much different control. I have to admit I never really touched the Wii U but it follows the pattern of missing the major hype)

Switch / Switch 2 (mixing an honest console with honest portability)

For me it’s some kind of cartoon with the caption “Best comic funny 🤣” and sometimes “funny short film” (even though it’s a picture)

Like, Meta has to know this is happening. Do they really think this is what will keep their userbase? And nobody would think it’s just a little weird?

Let me know when Samsung software stops sucking and then we’ll talk.

Too little (probably), too late. The platform has been taken over by bots with AI slop and forwards from Grandma and that’s damn near all that shows up in my feed anymore. I really hope Bluesky catches on

I ate beets a few days ago. Wife and I each had a brief panic in our respective morning poops the next day. Hasn’t been an issue since

Uh, yeah?

I laughed when I saw this. Like, it was a guy excited that his computer is working better, including with his printer. Maybe a teensy bit of punctuation I’d do differently, but whatever. It’s the Internet. Then suddenly “oh yeah sorry English isn’t my first language and I’m sure you can all see that”

How far away is the Mar a Lago kitchen? That could at least put him close to one

I preferred the first version.

They’ll also tell you that minimum wage jobs are for teenagers anyway, but not think anything of buying one of those burgers for lunch on a school day. And guess how they’re supposed to pay for college!
