mrtree··on Apple to halt Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 sales in the US this week
“Making a wristband pulsioximeter is trivial”

Sure sure.

mrtree··on Nokia and Airbus elected as judges at the UPC, an unheard corruption of Justice
Nokia is not the phone company but the network service’s provider.

Patent trolls do not produce products, Airbus and Nokia DO -very competitive- products. Airbus in particular is far superior to their competitor Boeing, which seems to be a sore point on many US-based commenters.

Nokia is no longer “the phone company”, Nokia refers to Nokia Networks (Alcatel included). Nokia, Huawei and Ericsson produce most of the wireless telco infrastructure today, which the US infrastructure depends on as no US company does this competetively.

The article itself is a bit on the FUD side of things tbh and the comments here are a bit uninformed.

mrtree··on Rumor: Google Stadia May Be Getting Shut Down
IDK, I have stadia and it works just fine. I have a 5G router at home, with fiber is even better.

The offering is a bit limited but there are several really good games that are worth buying.

Medium is becoming a pamphlet...
mrtree··on Project Flogo – Open Source Framework for IoT Integration
I have been doing "IoT" for 10 years and after checking the website and the github repo I still have no clue about what flogo does.

Isn't it like some basic http api for "triggers"? Is this what people think IoT is about?

More importantly, can these basic set ups make money for some?

mrtree··on “Finland could employ some 2000-3000 developers immediately”
I fail to see how having people translates into having jobs, skilled labor, etc. This crisis is about automation, there is no need for more people. It is also well-accepted that migrants contribute less to the economy, either due to lower wages or simply because they are unemployable.
mrtree··on US Economic Liberty Has Been Sinking for Sixteen Years
What does economic freedom even mean?

mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
I didn't quite get this: They are nomadic, let's erradicate them?
mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
Yeah, it was just the way it goes on the british colonies...
mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
"Population density"is a nice way to put it but hides fact that the local population was exterminated in the british colonies, and not in the spanish ones. That's why there is so few people of aboriginal descent in the US and not in Latin America.
mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
Because the native aztec population was not exterminated as the indians in US were. The spanish mixed with the locals but there weren't that many of them (spanish).
mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
Thinking of racist people as "the enemy" isn't going to solve anything.
mrtree··on People from Mexico show stunning amount of genetic diversity
LOL! Thinking that the US is socially superior to Norway, Germany or France, and then selecting the Commonwealth as the "ideal".

Funniest thing I have read in a while.

That is so damn relative. Don't you see it?
mrtree··on When will we stop using Facebook?
I don't have fb and I don't miss it. Soon many more will join the trend and nurture their real friendships instead...
