The car is efficient enough for it to do something (20-30 miles a day in summer if I remember), but yes it’s mostly marketing and they say as much. “Solar electric car” sounds a lot better than “this car is pretty normal but it’s super efficient”
Fun fact: your left eye doesn’t go only to your right brain. The left half of your field of vision in your left eye goes to your right brain. Same with the right half of your left eye, and your right eye is split up similarly. How nuts is that?
That’s both interesting and disheartening
Self landing rockets is a great thing to cheer about!
But also people cheered for a guy eating cheese balls so you may have a point.
Doubt it, the truck doesn’t say “CVEVORLETTE” on the bumper
That must feel so strange
Like yes taxes go up, but also you’re already paying for health insurance
Yeah. That’s my issue with it as well
You can get Gboard on an iPhone… it isn’t the same but the autocorrect is less heavy-handed.
Speaking of which, if you ever try swipe typing on the default iOS keyboard, try swiping “purple woman”. Probably comes out fine. Then try “black woman” or any color that could be a skin tone and I bet it won’t come out right. Mine used to change the first word retroactively which was… bad. So for example “black woman” would become “blank woman”, “block woman”, “Bosch woman”, etc.
They seem to have fixed it somewhat but now it always capitalizes Woman for me and refuses to act normal. Just a fun tidbit.
I like the animations for the most part. The only time it gets annoying is when I misclick and have to wait for the animation of shame to complete lol
I wish there was something solid like the zen phone 9 when I was looking to buy a new phone. I went with the iPhone 13 pro hoping it would last me at least 5 years, since Apple tends to be pretty good about their software longevity. I like android but I wasn’t about to switch to a Samsung because I just don’t like the weird “look we made our own app, now you have two browsers!”
Really? That’s kind of neat. I will say, iphones feel really nice to use, with the haptics and also general fluid animations. That is, assuming you do “basic phone things”, because as soon as you try and do complex things you need many more taps per action and sometimes the animated delay gets in the way.
The number line is very cool. I do miss that, as well as long-pressing any key to get the character located “behind” it.
Wow… I never thought of the Magic Mouse thing, yet you’re entirely correct. Everyone would use it like that, and honestly it does look better without being plugged in (although everything else about it sucks, I hate that damn mouse)
What part? Genuinely curious as I enjoy both. Only thing I actively despise is the inability to natively use manual focus
Personally I like the bounce, the stretch on my android always felt anticlimactic
I live in the middle of nowhere and it’s been a lifesaver. The competition is good, because now satellite providers will need to up their game. It also keeps ISPs from locking down an area with insane prices and no alternatives rich is overall a great thing.
Most people enjoy having feces thrown at them from what I’ve gathered.
Monkey see monkey do
Hot take, I enjoyed Chappie. I don’t care that there’s some self-insert band in there, it’s just a funny robot movie
