Would you believe a social network?

I have. More than once. I always hang up and call back anyway.

Yeah. I’m just not dropping $70 for a new handle just to prevent one of my neighbors from learning my brushing habits.

Which is already paid for. I’ll certainly keep that in mind when it’s time to replace it.

My toothbrush is Bluetooth connected. It’s used to configure the brush modes and track brushing habits. I didn’t buy it for this and uninstalled the app after a week. Thankfully it’s not Wi-Fi connected.

I’ve been using this for years and have been happy with the service. If I have to pay for something at least I’m not giving money to TurboTax.

These services should have default billing alerts and limits you have to actively change.

I mean, that’s about 500,000 more than they currently employ. It’ll be good for the economy.

I mean don’t people already spout this crap?

Is there a way to block these threads about threads?

No, that’s 0.99 and going up to a buck fifty.

This article is peppered with em.

The reason those companies, and not Tesla, know how to build cars that (in general) can drive from here to there without dropping a wheel or bursting into flames is not that they are staffed by a bunch of centenarian Lore Wizards who learned the secrets of auto manufacture back in nineteen-aught-dickity and now hide this sacred knowledge in a walled mountaintop abbey.

Did you read it? It’s an opinion piece that references the Reuters report, and several articles, and is an absolute BLAST to read.

Honestly, today, with a family, house, car, etc… 100k isn’t as much as it sounds.

Doesn’t this run afoul of the first sale doctrine?

That as anecdotal as me saying it works fine for me. I haven’t encountered any of the issues you quoted.

But overall I disagree that abandoning RCS to keep pushing for 3rd party apps is the correct path. How’s that been going for the last decade? SMS is the only common platform between all the people I know. If there are issues with RCS they need to fixed.

Guilty as charged.

Sure. But if you’re going to browse all then don’t bitch about what’s in it. All isn’t your personal curated feed. That’s what subscribed is for.

The brigade is in full force. You are 100% right.

No. I just think the person I replied to was rude.
