Fun fact, if you adjust for inflation, this machine is only $52 more than the original switch was at launch.

This is basically the originally pricing, adjusted for inflation + Trump’s 20% Chinese manufacturing tariff.

Looks like we’re seeing the impact of inflation + tariffs.

The OG Switch was $300 in 2017. This console would be about $350 if you adjusted for inflation.

I see the Eagan’s placed a picture of Keir in the salt crystal room.

Plot twist. He’s wrong because he was down with it.

I just resubscribe when some good shows have piled up.

My hot take is that, if you’re not sailing the high seas, HBO (or whatever it’s called this hour) and Apple have the best catalogs of new stuff.

It would’ve been easier to just huff glue.

Trust me, he’s not. He’s just trying to amass more wealth.

In its suit, Samsung alleged that Oura had a history of filing patent suits against competitors like Ultrahuman, RingConn, and Circular for “features common to virtually all smart rings,” such as sensors, batteries, and common health metrics.

The problem isn’t the features, it’s that Samsung is copying the very concept of a smart ring. Oura was the first company to make and patent biometric smart rings. So, yeah, if you make a biometric smart ring without paying them, you’re getting sued. That’s how patents work.

For the past 30 years, Samsung’s consumer product development strategy has been 75% “copy the competitors, then pay lawyers to fight it out.”

I thought that was rowing machine porn.

You will encounter this man at work.

They will ask for your help with something on their workstation, and it would be faster for you to drive with them watching over your shoulder, but this cryptic thing is their keyboard.

Instead, you will be forced to sit behind them like Patrick Swayze guiding Demi Moore at a throwing wheel. You will eventually take your shirt off, launch Unchained Melody in Spotify, then slowly guide them through a system setting panel.

You will notice how soft their hands feel. The hyper-ergonomic keyboard has allowed their fingers to move with minimal effort, allowing the skin to remain supple, smooth - almost unused.

You will ask yourself, “Is he right?” How could a keyboard be so aggressive and wrong, and yet, support something so gentile.

You try to deny the feeling. Your friends and family will mock you like your uncle Dvorak. Maybe you start with a trackball and see if being naughty feels right.

Probably not the worst idea if you’ve been diagnosed with heart disease.

Samsung’s just copying Apple yet again.

This guy Californias

Someone do this, but with vibrators.

Well, one is a public benefit company, the other is not. So not exactly the same shit.

100% agree. My stupid Volvo does that, and it doesn’t have lidar or a million cameras around it.

Some of the newer auto manufacturers do that. Telsa, Rivian, etc. Those companies all have good in-house software developers. Almost everyone else farms this stuff out, which is why it’s never updated.

Just saying I’d like to see some more data. I get that Musk is not someone who should be trusted. Especially if it’s around complying with regulators.

That said, I could see that system being disengaged by some intended safety triggers.

AP is supposed to disable itself if a fault or abnormality is detected. Pretty much all advanced cruise control systems do this.

I don’t think it’s fair to say the car was hiding evidence of AP being used unless it was intentionally logging the data in shady way. We’d need to see the logs of the car, and there are some roundabout ways for a consumer to pull those. That would probably be an interesting test for someone on YouTube to run.

People are arguing about autopilot being disabled during the drive, but even if it was, the emergency braking system should tried to do something.
