Uh… didn’t this happen like 7 years ago when they stopped using intel chips?
I think they were still releasing updates for the non-Apple Silicon Macs, which meant Hackintosh was still possible.
Also why not just buy a pc to do this diy-adjacent bullshit? Not like you can’t get Mac equivalent (or better) hardware for literally the same price these days. It’s not 2004.
That’s what a Hackintosh is though. It’s running Mac on non-Apple hardware.
they reportedly still sometimes show ads to premium subscribers
I’ve been on YouTube Premium since it was YouTube Red, and I’ve never seen an ad when I’m logged in.
I justify it because YouTube Music is included, so I can get music streaming without paying for a similar service from Spotify or Apple or Amazon or whomever, and also get ad-free YouTube on all my devices and whatnot.
I cannot imagine the value to the company from whatever usage data they get from their toothbrushing app is anything close to the value they get from selling brush heads. So it would be immensely foolish to lock down the toothbrush.
The app is a selling point, and they do it because others do. Without it, they’d lose the portion of the market that wants to track which parts of their mouth they’ve brushed properly to their competitors. But that isn’t their main market, and they’d be idiots to kill their product chasing that niche.
If it’s anything like mine, it works just fine without the app. The app just does brush tracking and shit. I don’t need any of that, so I never set it up. But I suspect even if I had, it would still let me use it without being logged into the app.
I suspect the same is true here. That the function of the toothbrush is available regardless of whether it’s logging data to your phone.
fidely
I don’t want to be that guy but I suspect you mean “fiddly,” whose spelling derives from “fiddle.”
I only mention it because it took me a bit to figure out what you were saying.
Oh yeah, I’m big on the wireless chargers. Especially with the magnetic alignment in qi2 charging.
Try cleaning out the USB-C port. Lint gets compacted in there and it can prevent the plug from seating correctly. Most charging problems I’ve had were resolved by scraping the lint out of the port, with a plastic floss pick thing or an unbent staple. Careful not to damage the contacts though.
Oh dude, give it a chance.
30 Rock has the highest jokes-per-minute of any TV series, according to this extremely unscientific and rigor-less measurement.
Tina Fey is brilliant and everything she touches is worth sampling.
Evil is my favorite row here. Scrubs shares my #1 spot with 30 Rock, but only because of how much heart it has. The only show that matches the evil row for number of laughs for me is Community.
If you like any of these shows, I strongly recommend the rest. They all scratch that same itch for me, extremely well-written, clever comedies (that is to say, the jokes are often clever, the characters are often not).

I tried ordering a portion of a guy’s crop before it grew. Sadly the crop failed and I was refunded. I really want to try a gros michel.
Bruh, you’re on lemmyshitpost, not lemmybetakenseriously.
For someone on lemy.lol you sure take things too seriously. 😉
Any of them are straight lines and decide the size of the star. Some of us are more refined and can handle diagonal sizing.
Yeah, I kinda agree. They got lucky. Thousands would have died regardless of the evacuation plan if the right conditions came up.
A proper company would instead be talking about compliance and how gifts of really any meaningful value have to be rejected outright.
I’ve had good luck with Anker, generally speaking. One of their MagSafe docks is a bit weak, such that I couldn’t charge through certain cases with a Snap 4 on it, but good with others. But other than that I’ve never had an issue with their products.
That makes so much more sense.
🤣
