hardware waller is NOT your key too. YOUR key is the paper wallet generated OFFLINE on a clean laptop that was never connected to web. There is a giant difference.
oh man, the override thing is super dangerous. I use FSD in Tesla a lot and there is a lot of times I "override" with the gas pedal because I think it phantom breaks or being slow and there were at least 2 cases where there was legitimate reason to stop (person crossing in my blind spot).

hope its just a hack and not quantum computer advancements.

Infant+Costco+Instacart is a game changer. There is a life before and after this.

Oh so that’s how people turn into drug addicts? So simple solution is not to go for a “drug” fix, performance enhancer, but to just accept that you just “can’t” and figure out a way to not burn out. Seems insane to me that there is 2 roads - one to never be a drug addict, second one is to have an extremely high chance turning into a drug addict. What am I missing?
Why? If you can live 500 years just focus 20 years on compound interest hard, then retire for 400 years?
Why is nothing being done about this? This is 1984 we were laughing about. USA laughed at China when they did the same, but when USA is doing the same people are not outraged shooting those down, painting over them. Am I missing something?
Similar to when printer stops printing black when color is gone.

IIRC it was the people from Pakistan that did 9/11, now these people have nuclear weapons. Iranians didn’t do any 9/11 in USA but somehow they are not allowed nuclear weapons? How is this supposed to make sense?

So is there a problem with Apple or no?

iCloud Keychain? Is there a reason not to use it? Aside from having android.

When will supply catchup with demand?
From what I researched, Tarrifs that are discussed are impacting about 5% of overall trade between USA and Canada. This seems more political and clickbait than anything meaningful. 5% is not something to be concerned about unless you are directly impacted. “They” (news, politicians) just want your attention.

Only thing I wish they were 20 years sooner.

In some languages disappointment does mean malfunction or problem. Like disappointment of stomach. Maybe they are using English words in papers instead of English language? Common for people whose English is not their first language.

Yeah, that’s why there were no obese people in concentration camp. No matter the “metabolism” excuses

What’s wrong with Musk? Seems like a good guy, rockets, evs, starlink.

Seems like it deserves credit where it is due?
I blame Facebook and not MAGA for this. Amplification is insane.
Do you really need long antenna? I noticed zwave can act as a mesh.
I don’t remember Democrat Gavin Newsom calling climate change a hoax? Jokes aside, I don’t think politicians have anything to do with that. From what I’ve learned droughts in CA are natural part of the cycle and humans just accelerate it. You can’t reverse it because it is nature” you can slow down the acceleration, but then at what cost and why? If we are “all going to die” how does it change if it will happen in 50 years vs 60 years? 60 years of misery or 50 years of normal life.
What can you realistically do?

Sales friction is how you lose sales. Make your website one click purchase product page. One button - apply pay, customer pays with preset shipping and then you handle everything from there.
Also a funny trump red card

Iirc, veritasium video said it was the weather report at the beginning of the message that fueled quicker decryption. So, not following same letter format each time might have helped.
I just realized that dictatorship is in a way the same thing. Look at Singapore. It is super successful because of "right" dictatorship. Libya was somewhat a good example with their insane water infrastructure and social programs.
Is it abuse of power or company success? Wouldn’t shareholders vote out any crazy successful ideas Elon had? Likely bankrupting companies at their early stages?
