I have never seen a cheaper AirBnB offering. Where are these cheap offerings you speak of.
The last time I went to Ottawa, AirBnB was twice as much as the Marriott, plus you had to clean or pay a cleaning fee. Neither of those are things at a hotel.
I actually owned the first one he mentioned and it died after a few months of 9-5 usage.
I had tons of issues with the cheap ones sold by 3rd party resellers, mostly because they are cheap chinese crap with bottom of the barrel components inside. However, what the author fails to pay attention to is that Macs have Thunderbolt 4 ports. Yes, Thunderbolt is compatible with USB-C, but you are adding a layer of complexity into the mix. Instead I recommend getting a native Thunderbolt dock.
I eventually paid a premium for a native Thunderbolt 4 dock and have had zero issues since.
An absolute death sentence for folks without air conditioning or another means to stay cool.
I made a lot of money from GME. I bought a bunch of shares early on for $10-$50 and sold the morning when Robinhood yanked the buy button. However, most WSB plays are money losers.
Damn, Mr. Musk could have made more money betting on stocks mentioned in r/wallstreetbets, and they ALWAYS lose money. Dude seriously needs to have twitter do the opposite of what he thinks.
I have never seen a billionaire try to go from billions to zero so hard in my life. It is like he is showing the U.S. government why billionaires shouldn’t exist.
Is there a fund that lets me do long term shorts on rich people?
Nah, lemmy just needs to give users more control. Users should be able to block an entire instance. If I can stop being lazy, I will try and see if they accept a PR for this.
I visit the Ukraine livethread on worldnews once a day and that is it. I use Lemmy or Mastodon mostly.
I am not logged into my reddit account, and ads are blocked. I use a VPN. I cancelled my reddit premium subscription when the API changes were announced.
I don’t think many objected to monetizing the API.
The issue is cost, and the lack of time for transition.
The Apollo developer said it clearly: How the hell do you put millions of dollars on a credit card. Oh and I am pretty sure a debit card would not allow a million dollar transaction even IF the user had the money to pay it.
If Reddit had announced reasonable pricing 6-12 months in advance, most apps could have transitioned, including Apollo.
Reddit also could have required Reddit Premium for API access and offered revenue sharing for app developers that onboarded users.
There were so many better ways to handle this.
To store digitally you would need a compression algorithm. Pretty much all video compression algorithms are lossy, which means you automatically lose detail.
Storing an uncompressed video isn’t feasible as each frame could be hundreds of megabytes (or more) in size. This is due to resolution + color info + audio channels.
