Not really loving the redesign of the camera bar. I wonder if there will be any issues using it on a flat surface, I could see the device rocking if you pressed in the right spot.

So there's two different "remote" actions. One would be using a key fob and the other through an app. I sincerely hope that the unlock/lock, start/stop through the key fob is always free and these charges are for some sort of app. However 150 yearly seems quite expensive unless there's some neat features that aren't in the screenshot.

You're still not comparing apples to apples. The people who actually need something like this (not this specifically because we both agree it's bad) would not be using it to tow just a small trailer. I agree the cyber truck is bad but the comparison still makes no sense.

If you believe them, Tesla says the cyber truck can have a 2500lb payload and tow 11000 lbs. That's a whole different ballgame than your geo metro which officially doesn't even have a towing capacity.

Some people actually use trucks for their intended purposes instead of a status symbol.

Ok, now try to do the things that trucks are typically used for in your geo metro. Towing, transporting construction tools and materials, etc.

I'm not defending Elon because I think the truck looks dumb and is over priced, but you gotta compare apples to apples.

Just look whenever you have the time. If you have to take a call or an interview during your work hours, just say you have an appointment. You don't need to give any more information than that.

If you work in office, try to schedule things during your lunch.

I like how many years ago, the limitations to programming was the hardware. This led to programmers needing to be creative with their solutions. Maybe they should find better ways to train their AI...

You can make espresso with decaf coffee beans.

I wonder if they make their coffee more like an Americano, so you do a shot (or two, or three) or espresso and then add some hot water. This takes the traditional espresso shot, which is more concentrated, and changes it to a more drip/filter style taste.

The more moves I see like this, the more I wonder how anyone in corporate finance has a job.

The issue isn't frames, it's the lenses.

Gotta love corporate greed.

If you are displaying ads to the user, the ads should pay for their access. If a user is paying for access to a service, they shouldn't see ads.

My brother has a hot tub and loves it. Had it for a few years now. The important thing is staying on top of maintenance. Putting chemicals in, draining it, etc.

If you have any specific questions, let me know and I can see what he has to say.

Or a griddle, same idea. Get more surface area.

 

Anyone have a good case recommendations for the 8 Pro? I pre-ordered one earlier this week and haven't decided on a case yet.

I sometimes go careless, but if I'm doing something where I know the phone might fall out of the pocket I like to throw a case on it.

I have used a handful of different cases with other phones: OtterBox defender, Caseology (Nano?), some Spigen, dbrand Grip and probably a few others. It looks like all of these are options for the 8 Pro but there might be a better option out there!
