Most banks probably are not going to write off many student loans. They can pretty much go after it for life and the loans usually cannot be discharged.

I get what you are saying, but I just can’t get too upset about it in this case for some reason.

Force the creator to flag the sponsor section and then filter it out. Then compensate the creator for the view using the $17 premium subscription.

Don’t know how I feel about this. I already get sick of the security prompts every three days to manually enter my passcode. If Google starts just deleting them and making me redo them might just fucking go back to the passcode. Hope it’s optional or it at least prompts you before deleting an old one. Not really trusting Google get it right.

Well, it covered every point from the article. So that’s good.

Oh God, it sounds horrible.

On the other hand, you do have to live in Nebraska. :)

I just logged into mine. It asks for your phone number, but if you hit cancel it will let you in. I can’t believe I remembered my number. Crazy.

While this may be concerning from an ewaste standpoint, don’t worry! Samsung has that covered. For anyone that elected to get a new phone instead of replacing a simple part Samsung has had the courage to not include a charging brick which slightly decreases the size of the box. Customers that need a charging brick can aquire one through a separate expensive purchase that comes in another box shipped on a different cargo ship from china. Samsung is super duper into being green.

If you have a Samsung phone (and in an approved region) you can do this by downloading good lock and installing the home up module. I have mine set to a vertical list and its so much better.

Maybe. In the past they have always been able to rely on their dominance in the PC market. With consumers shifting away from this, I don’t think it’s so straight forward and in other emerging markets like AI they are way behind.

At least they are finally putting actual money into R&D. This article was a really good read. Will be interesting to see how and if Intels investments pay off.

Funny you should mention that

Why an engineer would use a “learning algorithm” rather than just use a “never crush something” is beyond me. So poorly designed.

YOU: What video had a white rapper riding around in a limo with P diddly?

ChatGPT: The video you’re referring to is “White Walls” by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis featuring Schoolboy Q and Hollis. In the video, Macklemore rides around in a limo with Sean Combs, commonly known as P. Diddy.

Well, CHATGPT tried.

If you have a Samsung phone you can try something similar now called secure folder. Search in your options to create. Then you can install apps in there and all the apps and data are sandboxed from the rest of your phone. You can’t access the data from the main phone and apps in the secure folder don’t have access to your main phone.

I have one setup for my banking app and other apps I would prefer to be private. Have to enter a password to get access to that area and it is encrypted when locked. It works real well.

I got the xm5 after I lost my 4’s and the differences aren’t that great. The bass seemed better on the 4’s too.

Unfortunately, I have both the headphones and the ear buds and I think the cans isolate noise better than the buds. It could be a problem due to a bad fit though. With the buds I could not get a decent fit with the foam tips so ended up getting some tips on Amazon so I lose a little noise isolation there. The size of the buds for the xm5 isn’t the greatest for me either so THAT doesn’t help - I get a little bit of slipping while eating for example. All said, I still think the xm5 does OKAY, but my link buds surpass it due to a better fit.

The bose might have an overall edge imo going by their reputation of having a good and comfortable fit. My brother has a pair and says they fit real well. I just can’t do the bose because the case is too large for me to carry in my pockets (even the newest model is rather large. The last generation was ridiculous - Bose is kind of crazy with their cases).

I would make sure you buy a pair from a store with a good return policy so if the fit does not work well for you you can exchange for something else. Everyone’s ears are different so there is no way to say how it will fit for you till you try them on.

The National Federation of Independent Business has opposed mandatory sick leave rules at the state level, arguing that workplaces should have the flexibility to work something out with their employees when they get sick.

What a dishonest statement. They know the burden put on the employee and that a great many of them are forcing themselves to work sick because they don’t really have the option. If employers were flexible with the employees we wouldn’t be in this position.

The group said the cost of paying workers for time off, extra paperwork, and lost productivity burdens small employers.

Oh yes, let’s not treat a person with decency because God forbid there is some extra paperwork to fill out.

This is disappointing. Due to Kagi requiring an account and billing I would say transparency should be vitally important for a them since privacy concerns are going to be a large reason a lot of people are looking to switch from Google in the first place. It’s always a concern brought up when search alternatives are discussed in forums and the “just trust me BRO” is going to start to ring kind of hollow if they play little games like this.

Early Netflix was pretty close.

You know of any open source alternatives?
