100%. i like using the top of the screen to mark my place in reading. sometimes i need to scroll back up and these headers completely fuck up my reading experience.

but luckily Reader View exists, so i usually just use that.

just my opinion but i think i find the translucency distracting. If it were me i’d go back to an opaque menu, but with a less gemotric pattern and slightly lighter color so the menu buttons are easier to see.

nope! can’t be subsidizing anything but fossil fuel.

being aware of the show doesn’t mean you understand a vague reference to one specific episode.

google fiber was a special case where they were introducing much needed competition to the nearly monopolized ISP market.

downvotes because your facts are misinterpreted. This entire discussion is about exporting to the grid. All this legislation does is allow you to use balcony solar for yourself; NOT connecting it to the grid. If you want to export to the grid (like to participate in net metering) you still need PTO.

Your link doesn’t mention anything about “balcony solar”.

“Application process for rooftop solar and other smaller systems”. If you want to export power to the grid from anything at all, you must go through this process. If you wanted to export power from a hamster on a wheel you must apply for PTO.

Because the whole point is to make solar easier and more affordable?

of course, but not at the cost of safety and grid reliability.

not true, you still need to apply to the utility to export to the grid.

And presumably new legislation is looking to have this exception as well.

why “presumably”?

Utilities must approve power export to the grid, even if you do the physical installation 100% off the books. It’s called “Permission to Operate”, which requires permits and passed inspections. You can’t just unilaterally add shit to the power grid.

projectors are just not a practical recommendation for most people. unless you take pretty drastic measures to set up your room like a proper theater, the picture quality will be drastically worse than an average TV.

you can say that about literally any TV brand, this doesn’t help.

Drone should be reserved for small and cheapish uavs.

why? drone is not a specific term either.

could be cheaper than enterprise grade DIMMs.

this is HIGHLY misleading. The page you linked is for Apple’s global/web properties (hence “within our services”); device-level settings govern app and OS telemetry separately. You can opt out of telemetry on apple devices you own.

just typical /r/technology apple hating.

i thought the same, but now working at a place using google/slack/zoom isn’t much better. pretty much all corporate software is feature creep bloated slop these days.

so… thin clients.

implement age verification on games with loot boxes. watch sales crash. stop making loot box funded games.

yeah at the very least it signaled their intentions.

If you are ever on a road trip and go by a Wawa gas station, stop and get their soft pretzels. buy as many as you can and freeze whatever you don’t eat for later.

The german grocery store Lidl also has decent soft pretzels.
