> Important: Even after the modem is removed, if you connect your phone to the car via Bluetooth then the car will use your phone as an internet connection and send all the same telemetry data back to Toyota.

How is this the case? I thought bluetooth was just sharing my phone's audio. Why would it allow requests over the internet? Surely there's a way to tell the phone not to give its internet connection to any connected bluetooth device?

I don't disagree with you, I think we need both the humanities and technology. But this group hasn't listed "the humanities", but a rather reactionary and recent limiting subset of the humanities.

The progressives back then may have been wrong, but the progressives today have it all right!

Really? I feel like android doesn't change at all with a keyboard, and doesn't support half the keyboard shortcuts you can use on iPad.

Absolutely

Call me old-fashioned, but I have a family computer. I got rid of my laptop, and got a desktop instead. It stays in the living room, in a desk drawer. The monitor is a portable monitor, and it gets put away when the computer is not in use. My kids aren't old enough to use it yet, but it will be the family computer eventually.

I've been thinking about this too. I think it would be cool if you could put the interface in a pen, somehow. Like embed a tiny projector and camera in a pen. Then, if you want to read your emails, you can project them on a surface. If you want to reply, you write with the pen, then point the camera at it.

Just gotta hope that slate auto is successful!

But that's not rugged individualism. It's just letting the market actually do its job, and let consumers and producers actually communicate a price

Do you have a child? Because I think the device makers haven't really done a good job, there are just too many workarounds.

Why is obedience bad?

I think "formation" is essentially a short-hand for "character formation"; I've seen the term used that way in Christian education literature and worldview studies.

It's probably a problem with my devices. I've never seen these problems with more expensive devices, but my cheap bluetooth speakers will only charge with certain cables.

I also have cheap cables that don't seem able to do data transfer. Guessing it's not actually following the USB-C spec.

USB-C is the bane of my existence. Everything looks the same, but certain cables won't charge certain devices for seemingly no reason, and other cables won't transfer data, and there's no easy way (AFAIK) to tell the difference

I've only read the first Hyperion novel, none of his other works. Thanks for recommending them!

Honestly, I don't get it. So many tech companies are happy to do business in China and serve its interests, when it would gladly see them fail. But they won't defend their own country and its interests.

I think it's short-sighted. Most of those Disney adults started out as Disney kids.

No it's not -- powerful CLIs with lots of features are made to be wrapped

Reminds me of the [tin can](https://tincan.kids/). Don't have one yet, but hope they stick around so I can get one for my kids when they get a little older.

I think it's this one: https://samkriss.substack.com/p/the-law-that-can-be-named-is...

But in general, Sam Kriss tends to weave fiction and nonfiction together in his writing.

I heard that Nancy Guthrie was not paying for the subscription that let her view her old video footage. So it's interesting that Google was still storing all that footage.

If a person confidently told a human to run over people in the intersection ahead of them, they would almost certainly do it?

Yeah, that makes sense.

I admit I may be missing broader context about the state, this was specifically from someone working for Eagle Mountain city planning. But the article you've cited is later in the process than what I'm talking about.

Let me give you an anecdote that illustrates why it was needed in Eagle Mountain, Utah. One of my friends works for the city there and he told me about how the development went down.

When the city council first heard that Facebook wanted to build a data center, they shot it down solely because of Facebook's reputation. A year or two later, Facebook proposed the exact same project to the city council, while keeping their name secret under an NDA. Then, when the city council was only considering the economics of it, they jumped at the chance for the tax revenue and infrastructure investment. With essentially the same exact plan as before, one of the council members who rejected it before the NDA said "this is exactly the kind of deal a city should take."

I think in many ways, these companies are fighting their own reputations.

MacOS lets you rebind Caps Lock, Ctrl, Option, Command, and the Globe/fn key in Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts... > Modifier Keys. Does that not work for you?

Yeah because casinos and distillers already have laws regulating their use

Nice! I always bring razor blades (they're hard to buy on-location) and I've never had them taken.

Last year I started self-hosting and went with [MXRoute](https://mxroute.com/). It was pretty easy to switch and I really like their pricing model.

What's better about it?
