Would be great if somehow this patent was bought out and made public domain so people outside the upper middle class could have an affordable way to track their vitals.
Apple is a strange choice as a champion for that. Their devices always have been notoriously overpriced.
Thanks for showing us who missed it this jewel of internet culture.

Sounds about right.
I’ve never played tabletop RPG but to me such people just sound like they want to be an asshole and only feel safe enough to play it out ingame. This doesn’t seem to be really about the game.
Yeah. Well, the whole point since the top level comment has been that people are willing to pay too much for their hardware…
I give up. Stay happy with your overpriced devices.
My point is that Apple is price gouging.
Neither one counter example nor whataboutism change the fact that Apple products are overpriced in general (and always have been). Or how do you explain their unparalleled profit margins?
Definitely. Thanks for being the one taking the bait. ;)
And yet, people buy iPhones instead of 3 Mac minis.
Even today I think nerd still involves some kind of obsession though.
Anyone could be into LOTR, especially after the movies came out. But it’s kinda nerdy to have heated discussions whether or not leaving out Tom Bombadil was the right call (it wasn’t!).
Your quote is worthless, that summary doesn’t give any reason what’s problematic about the browser.
It’s also unfortunate that the article’s author chose to start with politics - I prefer technical reasons to stop using technical tools.
The crypto bullshit and injection of affiliate codes to URLs are indeed problematic. However, to me that just says to stay vigilant when using Brave but it’s still not as bad as Chrome.
Personally I use Firefox anyway but unfortunately, webdevs get lazier every year and only test Chromium browsers and sometimes some stupid website doesn’t work correctly on Firefox. If it’s something like an airline checkout I need a fallback browser and today that’s Brave.
Wrong meme format if Sync is the one profiling you and the other apps are FOSS.
It’s full of personalized profiling too. Hard pass from me.
Firefox is a weird buggy mess that constantly freezes.
This is definitely not normal, Firefox never freezes for me. May be worth checking that out, especially your extensions.
Unfortunately, it’s an abandoned project that hasn’t gotten updates for 2 years.
There’s an active fork
but no release yet, you can only install by building it yourself: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard
