*Can’t afford to buy a $48K car

There are still sedans out there that can be gotten for a lot less, people have really been over spending on these large SUVs to make the average price $48K. Get a ~$30K sedan instead, you can get a Honda Civic for under $30K or a number of other cars.

Now obviously that’s still out of reach for a ton of people, but it just seems weird to say “can’t afford a new car” and then picking something for $48K.

at least at the next debt ceiling increase at the end of 2024

Yeah, so basically long enough that nobody is going to remember this and she is going to George Costanza her way back into the office.

Question is who is just throwing $2 at comments? Should users just cut out the middleman and post their Venmo/Patreon handles or something?

If the app stores take a 30% cut then they are making 60cents off the $2 and Reddit takes in 40¢ while the user gets $1.

Just pay me the dollar directly, be sure to upvote, comment below and subscribe for more comments like this.

Reddit’s post was distinctly non-specific about the dollar amounts people can expect to see

Lol, so basically “we might give you money if we feel like it”.

What Coke offshoots have actually landed? Like Zero, Diet, Cherry, Vanilla and maybe Lemon?

HLG, AV1, QMS, VP9 Profile 2 (YouTube HDR) and faster menus would make me want to upgrade from my 2017 Shield as that’d improve watching videos.

MXM GPUs never really caught on, and nobody builds their own laptop, it’s just not a thing like it is with desktops.

Best option if you want upgradable graphics would be an external Thunderbolt dock, but even then there are plenty of caveats there.

That does look pretty slick! Definitely something I will have to look into more.

Are there decent camera systems that allow you to self-host everything?

7600K - 1481 ST 13600K - 2654 ST 13700K - 2820 ST 13900K - 2955 ST

So to answer the question something like an 80% improvement over 2016, roughly 2x if you compare it to a 2016 i5. And the 13900K does have the highest single thread performance in the 13th-gen models from what I can tell.

This voids the cloths warranty.

It might actually be the port is jammed up with dust on the devices you have used so it couldn’t fully insert and lock in. Being that lightning is a decent sized hole lint gets in there and then when you plug the cable in you compact it all down and it eventually keeps you from fully inserting the cable but it can often still charge though sometimes it is a bit finicky. I clean my out about once a year due to this, haven’t noticed in 3 years of owning a device wearing out the clippy/spring dodads.

Lightning has the divots in the sides of the cable and then two idk spring loaded bits that press in there on the phone side. It’s insanely secure, one could argue possibly too much, but I can hang my phone from the cord and it won’t fall out.

Now that’s not to say USB-C is bad like it falls out or anything, just that it takes more force to disconnect a lightning cable than USB-C.

You can charge faster than 10W using Lightning to USB-C

Does Telegram not send a verification code? (It’s been like a decade since I signed up)

Seems like an easy solution. It’s not like phone numbers are secret hard to guess numbers.

For a 2-line connection yes, but single line is just 1 pair.

I assume Netflix had ways to slim down the number of discs they had in the past (like once a new release is less in demand), were those all going to the landfill or did they sell them to some sort of 3rd party? (I know GameFly will sell directly to consumers, but not sure what Netflix did)

Definitely would love a Honda E, got a Chevy Bolt EV as it seemed like the next best option here.

“HD” pictures? So like 1megapixel (720p) or 2megapixels (1080p)? What could you do before the change 0.3MP (640x480)?
