Ok, but the piece is about plays for people who want to play the retro physical media formats. It isn’t about people asking for new smaller disk or cassette media.

It’s Porno Gil.

Apparently, in order keep the “die cast” label, either the base or the top are die cast.

Some cars are plastic on top and metal on the bottom, and others are metal on top and plastic on the bottom.

As I recall, the wheels are also no longer 4 separate axel pins. They’re just two long pins. One in the front, one in the back.

Have you thought about upgrading to an aftermarket stereo or a one of those CarPlay / aa units that connects to your car’s existing auto inputs? I had CarPlay in a 2001 Subaru.

Exactly. These systems have been around for a decade and my new phone still works on an old Alpine CarPlay head unit from 2014.

Base alpine software may feel dated, but once the phone is in, I get the modern version of all my mapping, listening, and communication software.

Projection systems rock. I was an early adopter and I refuse to go back. Docking a phone on an air vent is janky.

Yeah, but most manufacturers support CarPlay and Android Auto these days. Your car’s dashboard experience inherits whatever your phone’s OS projection system sends.

My old car’s onboard infotainment may be a decade behind, but when I plug my phone in, it’s 2024.

After rolling to CarPlay and Android auto for a while, I’d rather not use a tiny handheld UI when I drive. iOS and Android’s auto UIs have bigger buttons and are more glanceable. If I’m using a screen while driving, I’d rather the screen that was designed for peripheral vision and less precise button targeting.

I’m sure Trump and his new auto industry advisor, Elon Musk, will get right on that. 😔

Sounds about right for this terrible product. God I miss working for a company that used Google drive.

TIL the new “air fryer” version of my old convection toaster over is the same device, but with a basket accessory.

Out of the loop. What’d he do?

Oof. I can’t imagine how devastating it would be to lose a down payment. Many people, especially first time home buyers, are throwing every spare bit of savings, and need to borrow money from friends and family, for that payment.

Problem: OP weighs as much as 3 bodies.

I don’t know if they’re already doing this, but they need to find ways to make security so robust that it is architecturally impossible for the business to handover useful data.

And here’s hoping courts continue to allow people to plead the 5th and not fork over passwords. If that protection falls, I don’t know how you’d design a digital workaround that would keep people out of contempt of court charges.

Unwinding after a shit week with a bottle of beer or glass of wine in the evening, with the extended family over for a meal, while kids play games. Tens of millions of Americans are doing this right now.

I don’t want to live in the America where that isn’t normal. That shit is wholesome.

These autocrats have always wanted to drop NATO.

Let’s not pretend like X is their reason. Supporting autocracy is their reason, and now they’re trying to come up with excuses to get the public onboard.

Probably the lower tier of premium that’s being tested in Germany.

Any toy with a speaker is a terrible idea.
