Seems redundant.......

Mazda is going the route of the 2nd crappiest interface for a car with zero buttons. Well, I guess that's progress. I still won't be buying one though.

If you're paying a very high interest rate and/or have a significant balance such that the interest is a problem, that suggests that you don't have very good money management skills to begin with. Banks price that poor money management and the associated risks in to the interest rate you're paying. Giving that person a reprieve, even if only temporary, is likely to result in them just spending the money saved on interest elsewhere and not paying down their debt which would be the smart move. Meanwhile, the banks are going to make their profit so to compensate they'll reduce benefits others get for having good credit and/or reduce giving credit to risky borrowers. This is an idea that sounds good on paper but in reality would cause more problems than it solves.

No opt-in. Within 5 minutes I hated it and told it to go back to the old Alexa.

Where I grew up there were a lot of Aerospace companies. Those companies needed engineers. They didn't ask the government to import them. They made large payments to local universities to support their engineering programs and helped create a pipeline of future employees. Seems like companies nowadays just want to take shortcuts, instead of helping themselves.

Indians may act united now but before we took their land they were violent, territorial (without ownership of the territory they protected), and brutal people. TO EACH OTHER. But hey, let's rewrite history and pretend they were perfect and WE were the only bad actors in the wild west.

out and watching it have already made up their mind and will simply use it for confirmation bias, which it will provide amply.

who felled tens of thousands of acres of rainforest so 50,000 elites could gather in Brazil for a "climate summit." Excuse me if I ignore their virtue signaling. https://www.bbc.com/news/artic...

I could see this with the unemployed but min wage has gone up a lot in most places in the last 5-7 years. Seems more likely it's just people working the system.

Let's create ANOTHER standard and fragment things even more. I'm sure that will help!!!!! DOH!!!!

As one of those poor bastards I can tell you with confidence that it's very easy. We manage approximately 400 physical hosts and deal with relatively few hardware issues. Redundancy and good alerting make dealing with those issues fairly trivial. The other benefit of hosting systems yourself is a properly architected environment can use hardware much longer which helps keep costs down.

with crappy specs and almost no apps, that costs as much as a mid priced Android phone? I've got a better suggestion for potential buyers- Buy a mid priced Android phone and remove all apps you don't want/need? Then you get decent specs for the apps you do want/need. And you can get it from a manufacturer you won't have to worry about going out of business in a year.

During the Ice Age!!!!

As expected people attacking me but no actual solutions. And no, "renewable energy" is NOT the solution. I won't get in to why with people who just want to attack. Anyone who thinks "renewables" are a better solution than Nuclear, and doesn't understand WHY Nuclear takes TOO LONG and is EXPENSIVE to build has not done their homework anyways. So, have fun in your echo chamber.
