In both Paris and Anaheim they could double the park space by moving parking underground :)

> one of the biggest overall dangers of this technology aside from mass unemployment and making my RAM cost too much.

That's a beauty.

Just tried with Lightroom - sometimes the pointer changes, sometimes it doesn't and stays as the normal arrow. Sometimes it allows resizing in height and width, other times only one of them.

what about iCloud and News?

I was specifically referring to ads for third party applications in the start menu, so you’re technically correct and I should have been more specific. I’d argue that those are upsells for the OS to enhance existing apps and systems. Not my favorite, but preferable to windows telling me to install candy crush in the start menu.

Rumors = the author just made something up

Similarly:

Leaks = the author just made something up, but now it ranks extra highly when someone searches for "[upcoming thing] leaks"

I hate the term "leak". It used to have meaning.

Now, it's either a fancy term for "announcement", or people use it synonymously with "rumor".

China blocked (many) US companies though, that enabled/forced the local companies to fill the void.

That's my point. This was a decision by China. European countries were happy to just let the US in and not have to worry about building their own alternative versions of the US services.

Now the same EU countries are waking up and realizing that having pieces of your digital infrastructure in someone else's hands was bad bet but unfortunately, it will take decades to build the same thing in the EU.

Where? I see them for 30-40.

Valid question if you haven’t been in 3D printing. Also depends heavily on the country.

In the US, it’s common to get quality generic PLA for $15 per kg. Buy several spools at once in a package deal and the price can fall to $11-12 per kg. Wait for a sale and buy a 10-pack and I’ve been getting PLA under $10 per kg. It’s very cheap.

For toys I’d prefer to spend a little more on PLA Pro or Plus, which means it has modifiers added for better impact resistance. This helps a lot with small toys I print for the kids.

I can easily find 4kg for $40-45 online, or if I am patient I can grab 1kg for $10-12 on sale.

You may be looking at more advanced materials like carbon fiber or fiberglass reinforced filament for printing larger parts that take a load/stress.

All I had to do was search "PLA filament" on Amazon and results started at $11USD

2kg packs on Amazon that go for around $20, eSun and similar.

The ruling says Apple can:

insist on Apple IAP links/buttons to be the same as buttons/links to external payments. But they can't ask for the outgoing links/buttons to be less prominent

charge for links/buttons to external payment, but not as they please. One interpretation is that it has to be based on real cost and can't in any way be tied to IAP costs.

can't use scare screens on external purchases
