    How is Musk/xai even in the conversation here? It’s a lowly, also-ran AI company, not a “frontier model” company.

    Does this block something like Obtainium? https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.imranr.obtainium.fdroid/ This is sad as there’s been a real resurgence of gaming devices (Ayn Thor/Odin, …

    Weren’t foreign nations gonna pay the tariffs? What is this with requiring each customer to pay $10 per watch? It’s funny how these very tariffs were introduced to “combat inflatio…

    That’s a biased inaccurate hashtag. A sensible person would say yes to personal freedoms - it’s their choice. Don’t impose either world view on them.

    Thank you for the contextualization - but Iran’s handling is nowhere close to Islamic, not observing the hijab doesn’t take you out of the fold of Islam (also where have men been h…

    It is, unfortunately the "Islamic Republic of Iran" is anything but Islamic. Show trials, murdering innocents, etc. They're emboldened by their Soviet allies, CCP, etc.

    Funny thing is, as a practicing muslim - there is no compulsion in religion (direct quote from the Qur'an). Iran literally is using the ignorance of the populace to push their own …

    Thank you for sharing this. I've often wondered how some folks deal with misfortune, take it in stride and work through them than abandon all hope for an easier route. Perseverance…

    As someone who did the same move with the release of Pixel Pro 6, I deeply regret it. Google Maps in a minimized view fared worse than my iPhone 8 plus for multitasking, that is bo…

    A lot of old 90's "hacks" are still commonplace in current email design. Thanks to Outlook's reliance on a brain dead MS Word-based rendering system rather than using actual modern…

    To be fair, shirtless men are a lot less common in urban India. Not the same in the "countryside" or villages as we refer to rural areas. India has certain public decency laws whic…
