You left the store ... and having seen those people, you put some money in Apple stock instead, which has increased in value around 10-fold since that day?

Yes. Printed out screenshots of one document pasted into a new document. It would evade some DLP systems I guess. But probably no highly secure ones, and clearly not this one.

Just in case you missed it, they added an option to unfuck that transparency a little. Settings > Display > Liquid glass > "Tinted". The original release was "Clear", and the tinted option makes it more usable. Still worse than older versions, so don't get too excited.

Although I disagree with your description of how men and women buy things, I agree that it is exactly how things can appear. I recommend one brief essay by Ursula K Le Guin, taken once per week until the condition clears.

Agreed, and that's a part of the same news story. The popular nineties Beatles cover-act Oasis tried to leave less of that money on the table for touts or scalpers to help themselves to. Some people hated the redulting high ticket prices, the media got all over it, and that response was a contributor to this current legal change.

"As any old tech head knows, the original visualizer was found in Winamp" Some old tech heads will remember music visualizers decades earlier. I mean, atari and sony aren't exactly obscure companies.

Enough of that.

Your views are compatible, and my view is that you're both correct. Venture capitalists, in common with many other capitalists, optimize for short-term profits, which can stifle long-term planning and innovation. State intervention is capable of making industries uncompetitive. I think that both have contributed to, for example, solar panels no longer being made either in Germany or the United States.

Well, since the fabrication has been discovered, she is destined to be known as Karen "Not" Goodnough

I agree that culture surely has something to do with it. I just discovered, after reading about your near-miss, that failure to use child safety locks (where fitted) can result in a £5000 fine. Happy to hear all was good in your case. Same thing happened with my brother when we were kids - seatbelt stopped him falling out, even as I reached over to grab him. If the same thing happened today, which is unlikely because he's 40 years old, the door wouldn't even open.

You'd lose that bet. The second paragraph of the article reads "Cars had no seatbelts and, of course, no airbags. There were no mirrors to see traffic behind. No flashing indicators, so your signal to turn left or right was simply sticking your arm out. The brakes were poor, and emergency braking was impossible. Steering was stiff and clunky, and the headlights were weak, making it difficult to see much at night."

Dunno about USA. But speed limits in UK are 70mph on motorways and dual carriageways. Police don't care about speeding there below about 80mph. Limit is 60mph on all other roads unless explicitly marked. 50 and 40 are common in moderately built-up areas. 30mph in the most built-up places, where children could be walking alongside. A few places have 20mph, becoming more common, for safety.

I'd take safe over almost any other metric - you know, assuming you can actually get where you're going. I'm surprised by the claim that most motorways have no hard shoulder, which doesn't feel true at all to me. This article claims that 87% does have hard shoulder: https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/...

Perfectly reasonable. Steering us clear is the roundabout's goal.

I agree with you, but elderly? Ouch. Lindsay and Craig Foreman are 52 and 53 years old according to newspaper reports. I wish them well, and will likely never travel to Iran myself.
