Some people already bought them and can’t afford to flip them for another car in this economy. Some are in leases that haven’t expired yet.

Tesla sales will continue to decline until Elon leaves the company. There’s too much competition in the electric car space now.

Alternate headline: “Mozilla leadership is completely lost and has bought into AI hype, alienating their user base”

Oh, I guess that means it never happened then. 🙄

Remember when MySpace was owned by Rupert Murdoch? Wikipedia remembers…

Corporations shouldn’t be allowed to donate to politicians. They can’t vote. If the ceo wants to support a candidate, make them take the money out of their own pocket.

Find. Another. Service.

TikTok is dead — just like Twitter. I don’t understand people who cling to these services. Might as well post on MySpace while you’re at it.

“Apple”
“Forced”

No, TikTok pushed out an update and you had auto updates turned on.

Go to Settings > Apps > App Store to turn this setting off.

There’s probably something similar on Android devices as well.

Don’t do it. Do you see what’s going on in the US right now? All it takes is one bad regime coming to power to abuse the hell out of these kinds of tools.

A lot of quality merch is no longer carried. Their deli and premade fridges are poorer quality now. I used to stop by there to pick up a healthy lunch from time to time. Not anymore.

Employees have complained online about working conditions being more like an Amazon warehouse now than a grocery store.

Here’s hoping they selling Whole Foods next. They’ve certainly ruined it.

People used to utilize the extra phone wiring in homes and businesses for LocalTalk networking. There are usually two wires for the primary phone line, and another pair for a second phone line. Most people didn’t have a second line, so they were perfect wiring for Farallon phonenet adapters.

Does Vimeo own their own their own infrastructure, or just lease streaming storage from AWS/Google/Whomever?

If the former, it could be a good takeover target.

Thats what e-sim is going to ruin. Cant just move your cards around. Now you have to contact the carrier.

Microsoft will continue to falter if they don’t fire Nadella.

Maybe. Depends on what you are asking. If you havent signed up with a carrier, i dont think you can enable wifi calling. But if you have no cell tower connection and youve previously set up wifi calling, it looks like you can still make emergency calls:

“Emergency calls on your iPhone are routed through cellular service when available. In the event that cellular service isn’t available, and you have enabled Wi-Fi Calling, emergency calls may be made over Wi-Fi, and your device’s location information may be used for emergency calls to aid response efforts, regardless of whether you enable Location Services. Some carriers may use the address you registered with the carrier when signing up for Wi-Fi Calling as your location. When connected to Wi-Fi calling, your iPhone may not receive emergency alerts.”

Google AI search says it’s a federal mandate in the US. I couldn’t find the related legislation though.

SOS is what a phone displays when it can reach a cell tower, but cant find an valid account associated with its SIM card. Its so you can make emergency calls to things like 911 from any phone, regardless of whether you’ve paid a carrier for service or had your service cut off. Or the only cell tower you can reach has no connection to your carrier, but other carriers on that tower are available to make emergency calls.

What they’re saying is that a web server can create a traditional jpeg file from a jpeg xl to send to a client as needed. So you’re saving backend storage space… sometimes. Until widespread adoption by browsers, you’re still creating and transmitting a traditional jpeg file. And now you’ve increased the server space needed because you’re having to create and store two copies of the file in two different formats.

Developers are already doing this with webp and everyone hates webp (if your browser doesn’t support webp, the backend sends you the jpeg copy). I dont see any advantage here except some hand waving “but in the future” just like has been done for most new formats trying to win adoption.

Its still natural gas. Getting it out of the ground is an ecological disaster.

How is it backwards compatible? Everything I’ve read so far says the opposite — That it requires recoding the image into the new format, and keeping around or generating an old copy of the image in current jpeg format for older software.

Are you saying a browser or app that currently only supports Jpeg can open and render a Jpeg-XL image?

Edit: Yeah. It’s not backward compatible. And system admins are already doing the “make two copies of an image thing with webp and the current jpg format.
