Howdy ho!
I used Avis in a different state for a short car rental and they sent me a hefty bill for some kind of damage below the vehicle a couple months after returning it.
I refused to pay and will refuse to use them ever again. Your mileage may vary.
I liked Zune. Microsoft is the real killer of their own demise. They have great products/ideas, but they just torch them before they take root.
They did. It was so awful with hardly any updates. I bought some things on it but usually when it was on major discount and connected to Movies Anywhere so I could watch it elsewhere.
I don’t know why they had the same movie for sale… one with bonus features, one without… for the same price. Every other platform includes the bonus features automatically. Why separate them? Is there someone out there thinking, hmm… I like this movie, but I don’t want the bonus features.
It was doomed to fail.
I kinda meant for like future products when AR and VR combine with IoT products, but if those can work on lower ranges with those 6 Ghz devices, then great… but VR and AR will definitely need 6 GHz to be more useful.
So if I’m reading this right… wired Internet providers are against this due to home Wi-Fi Internet speeds and phone providers are for this for mobile speeds/bandwidth?
I don’t know how I feel about this as I currently have T-Mobile home Internet and it’s not the best experience… but it mostly works and it’s cheaper than my previous cable provider. However, home Wi-Fi really needs 6 GHz for future IoT devices.
But I am definitely against it because Ted Cruz is for it. He obviously is getting paid/bribed by the telecoms… and he sucks.
Or just doppelgangers.
I mean, my phone doesn’t have that.
It says for non-emergency calls.
It might actually help with real emergency calls getting through faster.
I’ve downloaded, but haven’t tried it yet, but hear good things about Mango Languages Learning.
People do use their work email for banking. Trust me. Some older people’s first email account was their work email… and they use it for everything.
And yes, we had to get them to switch all their accounts over to a personal address once they left the company.
Devil’s Advocate… I mean… they don’t work for like a newspaper or a government agency.
Unless there are those who need certain words for their jobs, I can kinda understand why Microsoft wouldn’t want emails from work addresses to go out with political agendas… for either side.
Work emails should just be about work. Too many people use their work emails like a personal email… with their banking, shopping, etc. That’s what personal email addresses are for.
This policy should go for many non-work related topics too. IT can unblock the words for certain users who need to use them for their job.
Took a Waymo for the first time a couple weeks ago, 20 minute drive. Did a pretty good job. There were a couple times where I wasn’t sure what it was doing… minor things like signaling to turn left but then decided to go straight instead last second, getting a little too close to a curb, etc.
However, it never did anything illegal as far as I could tell. The biggest issue is other human drivers. Since they do illegal things all the time, Waymo has to be extra cautious, which causes longer waits at intersections. Saw a human driver blow past a stop sign when it noticed it was Waymo’s turn to go. 🙄
Technically, her mind controls the muscles that control the hand. But yes, her mind doesn’t control the hand directly.
It is pretty cool to see the hand work away from the limb.
We have to go back!!!
Probably referring to this, but don’t know for sure:

I think Mastodon is closer to Lemmy as a Twitter alternative over Bluesky.
However, this does a good job explaining the differences:
I prefer 9-Volt. It’s shockingly good.
MONEY is all they care about. So it matters.
