- Comment on Microsoft bundles Office AI features into Microsoft 365 and raises prices 6 days ago:
So will business customers be able to disable the AI “features”?
- Comment on BMW’s new iDrive turns the whole windshield into a heads-up display 2 weeks ago:
A loooong time ago there was a car commercial about tech a company was working on where one of the features was an infra-red heads up display. At night you would see wildlife and other warm blooded animals (like humans) light up on your windshield. That way you could see if something or someone was about to cross in front of you from the side of the road. I wish someone would make that happen.
- Comment on Discovery Plus is raising its prices 2 weeks ago:
Check your cell provider for free tv benefits. Hulu is included for free with some accounts on t-mobile in the US for example. And Hulu carries Shogun.
- Comment on Discovery Plus is raising its prices 2 weeks ago:
😆 It wasn’t even worth paying for at the previous lower price.
- Comment on Frostpunk creators cancel "Project 8" and lay off staff amid concerns that "narrative-driven, story-rich games" don't sell 4 weeks ago:

I’m sure all three viewers of Peacock will be annoyed.

Does the Cybertruck also include the Tesla door handles with the hidden manual release mechanism?

I am sure they will be overpriced compared to manufacturing costs, just like Crocs.
- Comment on Meta must face FTC trial that could separate Instagram and WhatsApp 2 months ago:
It will depend on if Zuck has done anything to kiss him off. If so he will probably give the FTC the go ahead. That’s how he operates. It’s not about what’s good for the country. It’s about quid pro quo.
- Comment on Meta must face FTC trial that could separate Instagram and WhatsApp 2 months ago:
They never should have let meta buy Instagram in the first place. 🤷♂️
- Comment on Max is getting ready for its own password-sharing crackdown 2 months ago:
Crack down all you want. I haven’t been subscribed since Last Of Us season 1 ended. The more you jack up the prices and other shit like this, the less likely I am to subscribe.
- Comment on Microsoft Rewards offers $1 million grand prize in latest sweepstakes to users of Bing, Edge 2 months ago:
Is this like an Elon “sweepstakes” where the winners are predetermined and not chosen at random? In mean I have to check to see if this is worth my time now that the courts have redefined what a sweepstakes is.

How is this company not out of business yet?
- Comment on Disney Plus and Hulu won’t let you sign up through Apple anymore 2 months ago:
It’s not really a closed garden when you can subscribe to the service from outside the app store and it still works.
I’m guessing this change was made because tv channel purchases made through AppleTV are subject to “family plan” sharing rules. I seriously doubt that this is about the 15% to 30% convenience fee Apple charges the provider.

Google just started pointing search results to the archive instead of their own cache. I would hope Google would be donating some supportive money to the archive as a goodwill gesture.
