…for you

(sorry, old Internet forum reflexes activated)

You're underselling this poster. It goes hard AF.

Racking my brain if there's another poster that unintentionally goes as hard as this one.

This one seems different from the (correct) ruling in favor in hiQ Labs, where the courts were quite clear that scraping the public Internet was completely legal.

This is a case of a company creating millions of fake user accounts, so they’re behind the login wall and not on the public side of the Internet anymore. At least, that’s how I’m reading this.

The failed startups are a vital part of the Aeron economy, putting these back-savers into circulation at 1/3 of MSRP

> but it hurts even more when exercising (back hurts, RSIs, etc)and so people don’t exercise and they protect their body like it is glass.

100% this. Whenever I've had longer breaks from strength training, clocking in the kind of hours I do in a desk chair eventually gets me to back pain, Aeron chair be damned.

The only thing that works for me then is to hit the weights; squats and deadlifts to be specific. Obviously not doing 1 rep max, relatively high rep range (8-12).

- Week 1: muscle soreness is horrible.

- Week 2: muscle soreness is quite OK and the regular back pain is all but gone.

- Week 3 onwards: gravy.

It does seem that way, doesn't it? Shame, it was the perfect form factor for family room, office front desk.

What is preventing them from launching a 27" version?

I've been waiting to upgrade our 2017 model in the living room, was hoping the 27" was finally going to come now. Guess Mac Mini is the only route to go...

Honestly, it was a very close call.

I had two shopping lists written down, one for Unifi, one for TP-link. It was a combination of a couple of factors. It was actually a really tough decision, because they both seemed very good value for money. I wasn't factoring in cameras, just controller + switch + APs.

It was a combination of a couple of factors (this was in 2022):

- UI and integration

- Number of reviews and write-ups

- What I could find in stock

If I were doing it again today, I couldn't guarantee that my decision would be the same. It'd be a tough one...yet again.

I was considering TP-Link at point of purchase, since there are some options there with more throughput. Like everything, it's a tradeoff calculation and this time I favored the convenience

I can throw in my vote for Unifi. Stuck the UDM and the rest of the gear in a rackmounted enclosure in my daughter's wardrobe and haven't needed to think about it even once in 2+ years. It just manages itself nicely.

Them’s fighting’ words

How GM thinks removing CarPlay and Android Auto is a strategically beneficial move, is mind boggling. I literally can't imagine how the reasoning happened, except for some really strong-willed exec with a lot of political power pushed it through.

Can't wait for the post-mortem analysis in 10 years.

> where it falls down is really understanding natural language.

I would settle for Siri understanding simple commands. Natural language is something for Apple customers in the 2040s. I want to not have to use creative language skills to decipher things in Reminders. "Who is this Paul Cage I'm supposed to call? Oh, repairing the pool cage."

Forget LLM or natural language processing; Siri needs to catch up to 2018's Google Assistant

Hah! Never thought of that. Nice one
