Yeah, has that gotten off the ground yet? Or is it still just investor stage pipe dream?

The more accurate form of the comment to which you’re reacting would be:

Can I have a free beer?

Conservatives: No

Liberals: Points to novelty sign on wall Free Beer Tomorrow winks “so you want a beer today? That’ll be $8.99”

The results aren’t exactly the same, but the gulf is not meaningful is the problem. Realistically, most people don’t actually like either party, they just dislike the other party more. If one day we had a 7 random parties just appear and Rs and Ds vanish, for a solid 20 years, political discourse would be verdant and nuanced in a way rarely seen in the US.

An Uncrustable filled to the point of being round.

Hard agree. Blood Magic is just mystical credit card debt. You have to pay a some point.

I just want an electric car that can do exactly this.

Modular components on an option of 3 frames. Reparable to a degree. Bare bones functionality. Physical buttons, no screens. Open source software. Upgrade not the whole car, but components as you go. Literally what video games taught us.

If I had Mark Cuban money, it’s the first thing I would do.

FWIW, the “meh-haow” call at them actually does work.

Here’s an idea for a “distraction free” phone:

Any android phone.

In a work profile use a primary launcher app that only shows 3 or 4 important apps. Disable everything else.

Lock all the rest in the normal profile with a password that is a randomized 32 or longer character string that you can’t possibly memorize.

Write it down in glaze on a plate, which you smash and store in a bag with some super glue.

Y’all, the last thing the suckers who will buy this want is some Nanny State telling them they can’t buy this.

It’s a stupid fake phone. Let them buy it. Who cares? If not this, the grifters already have 700 other things lined up behind it. Let them pay for our schadenfreude, as they have done so many times before.

As a daily Linux user… Yeah.

Counter-suggestion, lolcubez. Because they’re square.

Eastern Europe loves the app Viber that Rakuten bought, which has had ads for years.

People LOVE a walled garden of their friends are there, too.

Also, because this was news like 6 months ago and has been posted and reposted here roughly 84 million times.

And they’ll ironically lose the lawsuit about the lies and deception of this, the defense of which will be funded by donations from the idiots that buy this phone and receive messages every hour asking for more money for the legal defense fund.

By “Most Human” clearly they mean the most flawed and greedy.

Well, it’s built to use Ooga, but it’s also set up to be able to handle Booga as well. It depends on the driver set you need to load Fire and Club.

No idea, all I see as options now for Paypal and credit card.

Only if you donate. Otherwise bad news, Signal.

Was this part of a survey where they get the “survey says” answers on Family Feud?

It’s toned down since 23andMe was new, but I absolutely know people that will regularly call themselves by whatever European group they think gives them character.

I always ask if they have an EU passport.

2018-2019 is when they officially turned the corner and decided to focus only on ad revenue. But the SEO abuse dove it into the ground by 2014ish. They were making money enough to expand by orders of magnitude into other areas, so they simply didn’t want to tweak their search or strategy and kill their golden goose that funded things like Good Drive and their shit social network and loon, etc.
