Burn it to the mother fucking ground. The line must go down.

Qobuz’s audio quality is a game changer. I had some technical issues with it with glitches short pauses in playback awhile back when I tried it; hopefully those are worked out now. It’s great if you know exactly what you want to listen too. It’s well known for lacking good algorithms for music discovery. I use Tidal and really like the daily discovery feature, automated Playlists, and the “track radio” that will give you a large list of songs similar to the exact song you are listening to. I’ve heard similar laments from people looking to switch from Spotify to Qobuz.

People say they prefer meaningful relationships with other humans more than buggering goats. A new study shows that might not be true.

Yeah, I’ve thought about this too, but real use cases would be rare and maybe somewhere along highways for long trips, but you’d need a lot of stations in hard to predict locations to make it something people could use. Most of the time a simple recharge at night at the domicile would suffice. Add trying to get battery form factors standardized when companies can’t even agree on a universal charger and challenges to upgrading vehicle frames and design if such a standard was ever adopted and it just seems unsustainable.

Perfect application and apropos name for ‘surge’ pricing

That’s the beauty of it. Just get a new one every two years like every other electronic device and you won’t need to worry about that. Subscription plans will be available.

What don’t they understand about consummate Vs?!

I run projectivity on my shield. I definitely have told people to buy them. There is a reason they still often resell around their original 2019 market price - they’ve maintened their value. For large screen or projectors the proprietary 1080 to 4k upscaling is still unmatched imo. I don’t use mine for gaming, but many gamers still like them for their gaming capabilities as well. If you buy one and don’t like it there’s still a good chance many months later that you can resell at or above what you paid for it too.

What do you propose? I don’t feel like there’s really great options. I still prefer the shield.

Why?

Apple has some serious catching up to do with enshitification on the appletv end. I think they are going to really blow our minds when they finally release a new appleTV. It’s quite overdue and I’m guessing they are cooking up a doozy for us!

My predictions : still don’t fix bit pass audio issue, eliminate ethernet port, crappier remote that still has no back lighting, siri/ appleai is everywhere but only makes things more frustrating, and who knows - maybe ads!!

Shield is very old, but it still works pretty well and unlike apple TV you can have true surround sound with bit pass audio.

I like that approach better. Just like I’d rather know what doesn’t cause cancer in the state of California at this point.

Notice: Those are not my girlfriend’s boobs. I used Photoshop with an AI plug in to make them look fuller.

No thanks mate. Government and anyone selling anything should be held to those standards. If you are an influencer pushing a product for profit that applies to you too.

Musk just pissed as he was going to name one of his kids this.

Still raking in the upvotes though! Reading is for suckers!

This is making the Republicans so nervous.

Not hating on the article as much as hating on you for posting it here you time-waster.

Guessing it’s an ad campaign for a new car company probably.

That or a college design project.

Stunning. This is worth sharing. I looked at some of the sources and the data seems legit. I’d be curious to see any criticisms or challenges as these sorts of estimates are very difficult to make. As far as I can tell it represents the best of our current knowledge though. I was completely floored by the mass of wild animals compared to humans and the amount of livestock. We really need to calm the fuck down!
