You guys shouldn’t complain, you still have saldering (net metering) ánd get money for the electricity you have left which is still a huge subsidy.

I haven’t really used any other platforms so I can’t really compare but I have encountered enough audio issues too. Especially with new Teams and bluetooth devices.

There are plenty of companies that never pay dividends, yet people buy them.

II struggled with this as well for a while. You can look at it this way, they are worth money because they could pay dividends, but they don’t actually have to. Your bar of gold is worth a certain amount of money equal to the money you could sell it for, and your money is worth something because you could buy something with it.

Because that’s how the stock market works, the price of a stock is the current value of assets (including cash) + expected earnings (with some correction factors for risk and time). If the company pays out $x of cash it’s $x worth less. You might not always see it it the stock price because expected future dividend payments are also already priced in.

How do you think it works?

Imagine you have 10 stocks worth $10 each.

Scenario 1: There is $1 dividend per stock. You now have 10 stocks worth $9 each for a total of $90 in stocks and $10 in cash.

Scenario 2: There is no dividend but you decide to sell 1 stock, you now have 9 stocks of $10 for a total of 90$ in stocks and $10 in cash.

These scenario’s are equivalent unless the stock wasn’t priced correctly.

A dividend is just a forced sale of your stock

How is it fake news? They are moving functionality into a proprietary SDK and have a whole framework ready to get around the GPL.

There’s a reason Chrome was able to steal the alt browser market from Mozilla at a time when even laymen understood that IE was awful - Mozilla stopped innovating the second they were winning. They had tabs! What more could you want?

That’s part of the story, but even more important is that they shoved it down everyone’s throat.

So instead of spending 1 day writing good code, we’ll be spending a week debugging shitty code. Great.

Security software are also “apps”. Since Microsoft is also in the security software business locking down access for their competitors could definitely be seen as anti-competitive practices.

Apple doesn’t have a monopoly with MacOS so other rules apply.

Honestly, I’ve used some pretty decent AI chatbots. They can help you with basic questions and contact you with a human for things that require it or if you ask for it. Chatbots that don’t let you talk to a human on the other hand, those are awful.

Full price? Paying extra for someone to ruin your pants and their lungs you mean

Why?

No it’s not?

If you read the article you would have seen Linux is supported

That was just an excuse, they just couldn’t get the parts. Radar is back now.

Because it’s called Full Self Drive and Musk has said it will be able to drive without user intervention?

I have to run out of the bathroom when my wife uses her Dyson hair dryer because it hurts my ears, and you’re telling me this is by design?!

Don’t worry, there is also a Linux version.
