It’s about as dangerous as using IE in the old days, or Edge in administrator mode.

Idk about door dash, but my son was delivering through Uber and he got all the tips for his deliveries.

They do get the tips.

Oh, that’s a good way to get them to ring the bell. I tried making them ring the bell other ways, but they never do. Uber Eats has a feature where they need to get a code from you to prove they handed you the food. I had several drivers leave the food at the door and then text me, asking me for the code. Fuck off

I guess it depends on where the beach house is located. I stayed at a beach house in San Diego for a week once in my 20’s, and it was fucking amazing! That was one of the most fun weeks of my entire life. The short 2’ wall in-between the beach and the house kept all of the sand out, and there weren’t any seagulls. We sat on the porch drinking beer, BBQing, and inviting people who walked past to join us. It was paradise.

That’s too bad. Apparently their holo lens was really good. But pricing it at $4000 meant most people weren’t interested.

I have an LG OLED too. There’s a setting for recommended content, or something like that. I turned anything off that looked like it meant ads or tracking.

So they recognize that the owner of the product is trying to prevent them from collecting data, and actively try to circumvent the owner’s security measures? This shit should be illegal, and carry a huge fine. You paid for the device, and it’s connected to your network, which you control. I’m sick and tired of corporations thinking it’s totally okay to be straight-up spyware and adware. Some supposedly legitimate companies these days make old-school computer viruses look down right respectful.

My TV is connected to the Internet and doesn’t do this. There’s a setting to turn it off.

“Ad enabled”

Chevy is still all about knobs, which is the proper way to create car controls. Ford is pretty heavy into a full touch screen control center, which is really annoying as a driver.

You know what’s unsafe? Putting a long-ass disclosure about keeping your eyes on the road that you have to close before you can use your infotainment center. We know how to drive, dude. Adding a distraction doesn’t improve safety, it makes it worse.

If you message cross-platform from Android to iOS, and you can’t get everyone to agree upon a 3rd party app, then you’re kind of stuck with sms. This isn’t a problem that is going away in the near future. Apple relies on their locked messaging platform to influence their users into thinking iOS is the best. The users then pressure all of their friends to get iPhones too. It’s an effective strategy for them. Very few iPhone users seem to understand the games being played.

Newpipe. Newpipe. Newpipe!

Have you ever seen a highland claymore? They could slice through 10 cats at a time. Never bet against the Scotts.

It’s definitely a LinkedIn bug, and not a Firefox bug. It’s amazing how little these enormous internet companies care about the quality of their websites.

Also free as in beer.

Well damn, that beer looks outstanding.

I read that that little “mrew” that they do is only for humans. They are specifically trying to talk to us. They don’t do that with other cats.

No kitty! These are my cheesy poofs!
