What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch banks?
What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch brokers?
What could Twitter possibly offer to make me switch from Venmo and PayPal?
Which Americans are not in a similar position?
X Payments is doomed to fail. He missed the boat. The market is already saturated, and they’ve lost all brand loyalty.
And were they any good?
My car runs Android Automotive^1 on an Intel Atom and performance is trash. I would hate to have a phone on the same platform.
^1 As in, the car runs Android directly, not Android Auto running from a phone.
So they tried to open a research center to steal Chinese talent (that has since been closed) and they released the Google Translate app on the Xiaomi store…
That’s not the same as supporting the CCP and the Uyghur genocide.

What are you talking about?
Google doesn’t operate in China, much less do work for the CCP.
“Getting fired felt like a possibility but never a reality,”
They took over an executive’s office and a cafeteria. Not knowing that you’d be fired as a result is a severe lack of judgement.
Protests are important. But you have to understand that there will be consequences for your actions. Embrace that going in.
Saying that you didn’t think they’d actually fire you comes off as childish.
I wouldn’t be so sure about how “solid” the R position is in Western NC.
I know plenty of people in the Franklin/Highlands area who are voting D despite traditionally voting R.
The area still leans red overall, but it is much more purple today than it has been historically. Plenty of people are sick of Trump.
Republicans benefit from low turnout in a political climate like that.
The hurricane has wrecked lots of the south. Especially North Carolina.
It would be really convenient for the Republicans if that caused low voter turnout next month.
North Carolina is a battleground state this year.
Edit: Also, Asheville is one of the most Democrat areas of the state, and was also hit the hardest. It is pretty clear that he wants people to live hard or die to improve the Republican chances in November.
Are you suggesting we treat North Koreans like indigenous people in Ukraine?
Why would any country allow soldiers of another to “do their own thing” within their borders?
That’s a good idea. They could probably do something similar for the audio.
They’d have to code around the rest of the animation and audio effects, but the size of that code would certainly be smaller than the rendered audio and video.
Video codecs mostly work by tracking movement, predicting which pixels will change, and striving to only encode the pixels that actually change or change dramatically. In other words, compression looks for patterns.
All of that goes out the window when you try to compress static. There are no patterns. It simply can’t be compressed. This isn’t a matter of the algorithms not being good enough. It’s a fundamental limit of information theory.
Anything fancier amounts to embedding the intro into the compressor as a well-known pattern. And at that point, you’re better off just caching a 4K version of the intro as a standalone video file directly in the app.
What are you going on about? Have you ever ridden in one of these?
They do have these buttons…
Doctors with one border
I see. Yeah, obviously the world only has 3 spatial dimensions, so you can’t represent 4D data spatially.
My general point is that we have additional senses that we can use to represent additional dimensions. And that totally counts as “visualization”.
And it is not possible to “visualize 4D”
Sure it is.
And that’s not even counting projection. All the time we interact with 3D data that’s projected to 2D (almost every photo you’ve ever looked at). There are similar ways to project 4D to 2D.
(Not defending the video or anything, just pointing out that visualizing higher dimensions is something we know about for ages.)
I think the reason Zealandia is called a “submerged continent” is because it is made of continental crust rather than oceanic crust.
But IMO the best geologic definition of continents is by tectonic plates, which mostly matches up with the cultural definitions of the continents.
For the major continents, we have these plates:
There are several smaller plates too, like the Caribbean, Indian, and Arabian plates. IMO, we should consider these independent continents.
There is also a dedicated Pacific plate. The ring of fire is the border of this plate.
New Zealand / Zealandia is on the ring of fire. Half on the Australian plate, half on the Pacific plate. You can actually see the border of the two plates when you look at the topographical map of Zealandia.
Sure. But this is not that.
I’m not sure there is anything illegal about making up these stories.
Edit: All these down votes are just wishful thinking. JD Vance is a piece of shit, but he hasn’t done anything illegal. (That’s not to say he hasn’t done anything wrong, because he totally has.)
There’s JD Vance.
There’s Ron DeSantis.
There’s Jim Jordan.
There’s Matt Gaetz.
There are plenty of MAGA republicans in Congress who would step up. To say otherwise is to be living under a rock. Trump is far from the only prominent fascist ass hole in US politics.
Big +1 for Sync.
I was paying for Sync back when it was a Reddit client, and I moved to Lemmy mostly because that is where Sync moved.
It’s an awesome app. Best app purchase I’ve ever made. (There is a free version too.)
