Or - profits stay the same and products are just more expensive (way more likely scenario).

I dumped Adobe completely several years ago, and found that Pixelmator has been an excellent Photoshop replacement. It even now does vector images - used to use an app called Graphic for that (for an Illustrator replacement), but should now be able to do all of that from Pixelmator.

Love to see it! Good time to post my recent Tesla story: family member passed away a year ago and I got their car - older Tesla Model S that was in mint condition and had free charging for life. So I had a free car and could essentially drive it for free (ignoring insurance). Lot of nice features on it, but was clear that Tesla doesn’t do the basics of car building very well. Bit noisy, a rattle here and there, exterior trim pieces that are a little loose, and window seals that drip when you go through the car wash. Not even going to go into their software, which is pretty shitty. Basically a lot of things that look nice at first glance, but kinda janky when you look more closely. Nuts that that was a $100k car when purchased new - doesn’t seem to fit with reality. Anywho, I listed it for a while on Craigslist because I wanted off of the Tesla rollercoaster (for loads of reasons - Elmo, future stability of Tesla which is unknown, and having the weight around my neck of a car that I might not ever be able to get rid of in the future). Played the Craigslist game for a little while and then decided because of the tariffs coming to just go the trade-in route. Went in and traded it for a Mach E, which so far, I’m liking. Seems like a better-made car all around, is just as fast as the Tesla, and has more bells and whistles for half the price. The Ford dealership was starting to look like a Tesla dealership - the salesman said that loads of people were doing the same thing I was, including him - he had one but still had a loan to pay off but he wanted to swap his as well. He said he didn’t want my car but was willing to take the trade in to make the sale, so worked out for me. What was also great is that the Hands Off protest was happening the same day right in front of the dealership (Tesla was a block up), so we listened to the sweet sounds of shouts and car horns while we did paperwork. Good stuff.

Should also note that with the exception of the Cyberdumpster owners (probably beyond help), just remember that there are lots of Teslas on the road and each of those drivers have a different story. I’m all for civil disobedience (it’s definitely needed right now), but many of those owners just aren’t in a position to sell/burn/destroy/dump their Tesla. Cars are expensive, and now more than ever, we’re probably going to need to drive them as long as possible to get our money’s worth out of them. I was in a lucky situation with mine so I could get rid of it, but just have compassion for those who can’t.

US health insurance don’t cover no luxury bones!

May you have the teeth you voted for.

Ah - you’re right (seems to be “pebble OS” but not Google hardware). It’s still all over my feeds today though.

Marketing department at Pebble is apparently familiar with social networks cause they seem to really be doing the rounds today (lemmy, hacker news, etc).

Also remember that he failed to sell steaks and alcohol to Americans. 2 separate companies with one product each that we can’t get enough of and they both went under.

Weird!

Godspeed to all of the new accounts created on ultra-questionable porn sites with this email address.

Weird - wonder if they keep getting taken down. Here’s one that works (today at least):

Drone operator hit a PG at Torrey Pines, PG landed safely (lucky), drone operator approached the pilot to exchange phone numbers but then ran away before info was exchanged. Later threatened the PG pilot with legal action if he didn’t take the video down.

Great week for drone dumbassery in California. This one also happened in our local paragliding community:

You love to see it!

Resurrecting their commercials from the 90’s now, it would go like this:

Duuuude, you’re gettin’ a Dell.

Oh…… dang.

Mitch has done nothing but enable the incoming administration, and helped to get it in power, so he has no leg to stand on now in all of his hand waving about the polio vaccine.

If they have MXC in 8k - all in

This is definitely what it’s supposed to do (and a great feature) but unfortunately it doesn’t work that well. Have tried this many times, especially with Amazon links, and it seems to be a bit inconsistent in its effectiveness.

Yes - US perspective. Whacky world view, IMO.

Yep - “unethical” to let people die without suffering and passing on financial ruin to loved ones, but “ethical” to kill criminals for their misdeeds. That’s superb logic from the right.

Same. Ridiculous design decision and I would either leave it on its side or upside down.
