Asus zen phone had received great reviews. You can use it as stock Android or with Asus’ slight customizations. It’s on the smaller side but it’s a good price.

It was disappointing to go through the saga of thinking I found a semi reliable podcast regarding health and current research, to finding some weak episodes, and finally arriving at the conclusion that his methodology is sloppy at best. The Dr Lustig episode was especially egregious. He let that guy make some of the most outlandish claims that I’ve heard. He made up statements about how FDA nutrition labels are required which was easily dismissible by a quick look at the FDA website. That was more or less the final nail in the coffin for me.
The biggest indicator to the scientific weakness of his podcast is the rate of release. It is not possible to do weekly releases on the complex topics he covers AND maintain the level of scientific scrutiny required to vet the referenced research or guest.
It’s a terrible headline that completely downplays a successful mission. Instead of focusing on the fact that they achieved a landing accuracy of 55m where previous missions measured in kilometres they went for a cheap joke. This is in spite of having a thruster fail that resulted in the lander tipping over but still able to deploy is rover. The same article from a better website would have probably faired better.
Another option is rocket language. It seems to be a lot focused on developing conversational skills. It’s is paid but not subscription which I’m a fan of. You just buy the language you want. The first few lessons of a language are free if you want to try it. I’m test running it right now to start my switch away from Duolingo
Just FYI Signal no longer supports SMS. They decided it “leads to confusion” and a partially secure app is not good enough. Led me to stop donating to them.
And gait recognition too now…https://youtu.be/R46cX0AjzT4?si=neUjyIYC-Pc6kL3M
Resolution (1080, 1440, etc) will be critical for your high and 60fps qualifier. Is RTX a deal breaker for you? Are you looking to produce content (or edits videos, 3d rendering, stable diffusion, etc)?
Without knowing any of that I can still identify CPU, ram, and GPU you listed are overkill for gaming purposes.
Edit: Gamers Nexus YouTube and Website is a great for getting rundown of current gen hardware and their capabilities. They typically give really good recommendations based on value instead of just raw performance.
I’ll also add that spending habit data is very valuable in terms of advertisement. We are in the age of very targetted advertisement. Just a random example: *user14555* on our T-Mobile app eats at a restaurant for lunch every Thursday. Have the app pop-up with a coupon from one of our participating restaurants on Thursday morning.
Restaurant will pay or give exclusive coupons to T-Mobile in exchange for these benefits. T-Mobile then hopes to entice more users by listing their app and “exclusive coupons” as unique benefit to using them as a cellphone provider. All the major providers have more or less settled at similar prices for cellphone plans so they lean on these extras as marketing tools.
I’m aware. I assumed it was understood that this all gets averaged at the pay period (ie payday). I chose to frame it that way because I wasn’t aware of Uber’s payout schedule or pay period. I looked it up and they are calculated on a weekly basis. So if you average below minimum wage across the week Uber would/should be responsible for the difference.
You only get paid for completing rides. Having the app open does nothing. How much you receive per ride varies greatly depending on location and time of day. Typically there is a base fee for the ride plus a per mile or per minute rate and some other potential fees. Uber then adds a 25% commission that they keep.
Minimum wage would come into play if a driver complete x hours of driving but the average hourly rate over those hours falls below the state’s minimum wage. In those situations it would be Uber’s responsibility to make up that difference. This is similar to to how restaurant servers in the US are paid. Most of the time their tips far exceed the minimum wage when averaged over their whole shift. In the occasional cases where tips are terrible or business is slow the restaurant is responsible for making up that difference to meet minimum wage requirements. These “tech” companies are stating they shouldn’t be responsible for that because they don’t have employees, just contractors who use their app.
Hope that makes sense.
Maybe governments was not the correct phrase. “investors with ties to authoritarian governments” would be more accurate. Qatar Holding, Saudi Arabian investor Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, and Binance. A lot of funds also came from VC and typical investment firms and LLCs. A list from Reuters.
At this point there be no explanation other than he’s tanking it on purpose. Twitter was definitely the growing enemy of many authoritarian government. Considering where got funding for his “loan” it’s a relatively cheap way to bring down such service by oligarchy wealth standards.
If the punishment for a crime doesn’t outweigh the profits then it’s just the cost of doing business. Wake me up when any of these rulings and fees actually discourage the multitude of mega corps from commiting shitty and criminal behavior.
Completely agree. For every tool we have created to accomplish great things, we have without fail also used it for dumb things at best and completely evil things at worst.
Yup, sounds like CEO talking points made to seem like the interest at heart is for “the betterment of humanity” without any concrete action plans or evidence of where the previous system failed those standards. Where have we heard that before 🤔
It’s mind boggling that the victim writing all of this is still delusional about Amazon making a change based on this incident. From listening to what Louise read it doesn’t even seem like the victim is fully set on removing echo/Amazon, just “strongly considering it”. At this point they deserve every bit of headache and misfortune that comes from continuing to deal with Amazon.
It’s amazing how many for profit business exploit the good will of people passionate enough to contribute towards the sharing of knowledge without compensation and still treat them with no respect.
This is part of the reason I struggle with contributing anything to review sites, Google maps, etc
