Engineering explained did a video on something similar with the 3000hp Chinese hypercar, and his conclusion was that you’d need to be going something like 175mph (280kph) to be able to use full power without spinning the tires.

Thousands of horsepower in a car is a terrifying amount of power.

Time to chmod 000 every game on the system and have them figure out what file permissions are ;)

I remember when I was a young child one of my favorite things to do on a computer was… Entering numbers into Excel.

I don’t know if this is a good idea, but I’ve been thinking of the idea of giving an old air-gapped computer with Linux to a potential young child of mine.

Therefore, they can tinker around, play with educational software, maybe even learn some terminal stuff, all without the dangers of the Internet.

No it isn’t. OpenAI is losing tens of billions per year in net profit.

Can they even be removed with adb?

Nobody expects new Linux users to use the CLI though. For a normal user that just wants to run their software they will encounter this crap.

I first found out about it last week and it served my purpose well. It has options for what you want to name the file based on the metadata too!

Could be worse, some people park or put their hazards on for minutes at a time in the middle of a one lane one way road.

It’s not poker. It’s a deckbuilding game based on poker hands.

Pirate it if you want. You will probably want to pay for it after a few hours.

It looks like a boss bloon from BTD6 lol

Everyone has their own opinions here. Here’s my opinion on what’s worth it and not:

Streaming services: Only if you’re not getting ads bundled with your subscription and you’re getting a lot of use each month from it, more than just renting each movie.

Amazon Prime: Again, only if you really need the frequent free shipping. I don’t, so I’ll eat $30 in shipping costs per year when I need something more urgently instead of paying $140 to avoid that.

Discord Nitro: Obviously not worth it but it’s funny because I had it for a few months before their privacy policy shocker in 2023. I genuinely wanted to support them before then because it was feature rich but not as bloated and ad-free with a reasonable privacy policy before 2023.

News: High quality journalism deserve the support.

SiriusXM: Unless you’re road tripping into the middle of nowhere, internet radio is free and has many more options.

Xbox game pass: I never saw the appeal because I’m a patient gamer.

Gym membership: I tried to get one a Planet Fitness a few weeks ago just for a month because the closer gym was revamping itself and was shocked to find that it wanted a downpayment. It tripled the price of a month of membership so I noped out, I’m not paying $50 for 8 trips to the gym that doesn’t even have bench presses.

I think it’s actually higher now. It’s a whopping $480 billion now

I use Fidelity investments; money that isn’t in stocks automatically goes into SPAXX, a market rate high yield savings account.

Does this work with any app or just second party ones? Can you re-enable it?

How does this affect “second-party” apps (i.e. apps you have created yourself)? Are you still allowed to go to Android studio, make an APK, transfer it to your own phone, and install that app? If no, this spells the death of experimental indie developers on Android.

Yeah forgot to mention the lack of ads and the reliable access anywhere part

I still use mp3s because:

1. No financial cost
2. Not tied to any one app or service
3. More customization: Can be played back at any speed or modified in some other way

What are good brands that don’t sell your data? Is TP-link okay?

No, I mean 500Mb/s, as my Internet will be 300Mb/s. My needs are not great.
