We live in different worlds, it seems. My local theater has heated seats with massage that recline! Hell, it is more comfortable than my living room! Kids usually aren't at the films I go see (not kids films) and cost if skipping concessions and using a membership makes it fairly affordable I go almost monthly which is more often than when I was a kid growing up. Also see tons of teens and parents bring their kids for kid movie specials, and they are showing old films now and then too, which can be fun. The biggest change I've seen is most of the staff is there for cleaning and concessions it's more self-service now but that too has improved the experience.

Supposedly there is more support than ever for unions. But honestly not much organizing or success from it. People are too afraid and or too self-interested to organize-I say this as a union member and former organizer. Hopefully this will change because being a union member has been life changing for me and my family.

same started reading/watching etc his stuff back in the max pc days this is so sad especially since my father is his age with poor health and just before christmas

I;'ve been a mozilla user since 2002. Mozilla is better than this I hope they change course here. in addition to concerns over environment and semiconductors due to these currencies we also need to be concerned about potential government controlled currencies which will allow monitoring and the kind of dystopian craziness we see in china

Longtime Toyota fan-we currently own a Prius prime. As excellent as their vehicles are overall between this and some other tech missteps and slow EV adoption with a lack of EV options, honestly not likely my next car will be a Toyota.

exactly. I can however see a benefit to cameras and other tech keeping an eye on how the driver is driving etc.

As someone with ADHD I have really benefited from working at home

I recently left a position during a second change of ownership while there. I chose a work from home job but not simply for its convenience and comfort levels but it is a job that pays well and has excellent benefits. That said I am a millenial who owns a home with space for an office and I had the income to renovate a bit and the company sent me the required hardware for the job. I am also married so at least once work is over I am not alone. I do miss coworkers though we do have the ability to chat using teams by microsoft and a few of us get together since we live in the same metro area for dinner etc, now and then. It will be interesting to see how this works out for myself and others personally I would like a mixed option

I currently work in healthcare so am required on site but would like to use this opportunity to find a WFH position and as a result am looking at companies planning to allow that and without the need to return to the office at some point.

I will use my current iphone till it stops working for environmental and financial reasons. I'll consider grabbing a mini or SE 2020 at some point since I prefer my phones to be small pocketable devices

Such a shame this isn't available here I'd love to own one and not have to worry about completely upgrading so regularly. Imagine the good this does for the environment and the money you save while also having the latest features or for that matter just the latest features you want and will use. This is how all phones should be anything else is anti consumer and anti environment.

Completely agree tech isn't the problem. I enjoy using Firefox and the services they provide and will hate to see them go should they do so-which seems likely
