Yeah, the soldering is outrageous. I miss the time when Apple was a (more) customer friendly company. I could open my Mac mini 2009 and just add more RAM, which I did.

I work at a big EU company, MS top partner / strategic account etc. We wanted to implement MS Dynamics CRM in one of our newer business lines, we barely got a reply to our official emails.
After some informal discussions, we were told that salespeople are now only incentivized to sell Copilot, so they don’t really bother with the rest.
If MS is overinvesting to ride the AI hype as a middle man, while letting their core business capabilities (Windows and Office) decline, they will be in trouble in the long term.
Boeing turned to shit after acquiring another company (not sure of the name), and it changed the culture and leadership
be me
average 4chan user
love reading and sharing greentext stories
take screenshots of the best ones to save for later
notice one day that a screenshot seems slightly tilted
think it’s just my imagination
days pass, more screenshots seem off
angles get worse, barely noticeable but there
try rotating my phone, doesn’t help
open screenshots on my computer, same issue
post about it on /x/, get mocked and called a noob
start getting obsessed, spend hours comparing, measuring angles
losing sleep, seeing the tilt in my dreams
one morning, wake up, entire room looks tilted
try to walk, stumble and fall
look out the window, world looks upside down
panic, try to grab onto something stable
mother staring at me like I’m crazy
feel like I’m in a nightmare
lock the door
look at my screenshots, they’re completely upside down
see my reflection in the monitor, it’s me but inverted
can’t take it anymore
scream, try to shut down the computer
power button doesn’t work, can’t unplug it
everything in my apartment starts spinning
fall to the floor, clutching my head
world fades to black
wake up in a padded white room
see a pen in front of me
draw greentext arrows on the walls, but they all look tilted
You pay a monthly fee (lease) that contains a certain number of swaps per month, above which you pay extra. The car is also cheaper this way, as you are not paying the full price of the the battery up front
My colleague has a NIO car like this, he really likes it and uses the battery swap weekly. To my knowledge they have patented the tech.
If I bought an electric car, I would definitely consider NIO, as this option is great for long trips. In EU they have a couple of swap stations in Germany, but it’s still a long way to go in other countries.
The company (NIO) owns them and you are leasing the batteries. The car is cheaper this way, as you don’t buy the battery up front, but pay a monthly fee (~200+ in Germany).
You have a fixed number of swaps per month, above that you have to pay extra.
Source: colleague uses a car like this and explained the details.
Exactly. I’m still on my 11pro for this reason, already had to replace the battery. I got the 15 as a work phone, it feels very large in comparison, I’m not a fan.
I met a cleaning lady in London who couldn’t speak English.
It happened last year in a nice hotel, and I found out as tried to ask for a towel.
Tbh it was kind of funny to think about it later, the one place you would not expect this to happen is London, yet it’s the most logical place that this would happen due to the insanely high demand for workers for these jobs.
Why, do you have a problem with furries?
If you stole a phone from a Google office, they would call the police and you go to jail. If Google steals your phone, you can try to sue them. The system working as intented, keeping us lowly plebs in our place.
I cancelled spotify a few months ago, when getting some free Apple music with my Airpods. Not the best, but still happy that I don’t have to use Spotify anymore, will probably shop around after my free period with Apple is done
The biggest red flag is the up-front payment for a year, gives the indication that they are in actual financial trouble, meaning short in cash right now.
Fucking idiots could have been just increasing the price yearly without any resistance, it’s unlikely a big casino would care about an extra 50-100 per month.
Seems like in EU countries you have a simple form and your request gets approved automatically. I could have probably typed asdfghasdfgh in the reasoning box
You can opt out easily in the EU, my request was granted in a few seconds. They don’t actually read it, they just hope most people go never opt out
I mean, you don’t have to become a wizard

Holy shit, the crypto bros are really triggered by this, out in full force in the comments. If the only argument you can bring for crypto is that you make/made money on it, that sounds a lot like a Ponzi scheme
Noooo, you don’t get it, bro. Just one more lane, please. I promise, it will be better than last time. One more lane, that’s all we need. I’m begging you, please.
I’m on my knees here. One more lane, just one more! This time it will be different, I swear. We won’t have traffic jams, I promise! Just one more lane and we’ll be free.
Come on, man, think of the children. Just one more lane. I’m begging you. For the love of liberty, just one more lane!
