Really can’t decide on a color temperature for those porch lights.
Though I really like the contrast the blue provides with the orange in the background.
I mean, they also have to figure out how to manufacture like 240 MILLION phones or roughly 1 every 130milliseconds.
The design is likely locked in around a year in advance, and the remainder of the year is spinning up production and actually manufacturing the phones.
Electrical engineer. You can’t develop and ship an iPhone in a year. Apple has multiple generations under development at the same time.
What’s wrong with other sweeteners?
Probably a healthy think to try like cutting back on drinking or sweets.
Probably won’t make much of a difference environmentally though, and I hope this being a “challenge” doesn’t sprout an industry of pinning issues on people who consider new clothing a luxury.
When you ditch the smartphone, you make up for it on other ways.
Only picked it up a few days ago.
I went the dumb phone route in March of 2023 because I was constantly scrolling or getting distracted while I was out with my wife. (Still use my iPhone on WiFi at home). Found that it worked well for me, but there would be the occasional question I’d have and have no way to look it up besides asking to borrow my wife’s phone.
She got annoyed, so I got the Rabbit used on eBay for $130. Got a $5/mo sim for it. I think it’s made a lot of improvement since initial launch comparing my experience to reviews. Battery life is well over a day for me, and I haven’t had it glitch out too terribly. Even the scroll wheel isn’t as bad as they say.
You just have to assume that 20% of the time, it’s entirely wrong. Like Diane Keaton wasn’t in 1989’s Parenthood, it was Diane Wiess.
I bought it under the assumption that the company would fold in a year or so, but there’s already a community rooting them and installing base Android. For $130, it’s worth whatever I can get out of it.
Edit: also aware of the glaring security hole, so no personal questions to the R1
Right pocket: Sunbeam F1 flip phone, space pen, moleskin notebook
Left pocket: rotates between Arduboy, Moaan eReader, Flipper Zero, or Rabbit R1
Rear right: wallet (containing car keycard)
Attached to belt: Ricoh GRIII camera
Let’s flip the equation here.
If driving wasn’t an option, you wouldn’t live 30 miles away from your job. Driving was an option, so you did and so did your neighbors. More neighbors move in, more cars, more traffic, more lanes, more neighbors, more cars, etc.
Alternatively, you move closer to work in a town with half decent sidewalks and walk or bike in. Bikes and people take up much less space which allows things to be closer together.
And yes, cars are necessary for hauling large objects over long distances, but how many vehicles in this photo do you think are carrying more than just people?
You also tend to not find them in the middle of cities. Texas just happens to be a car-dependent wasteland.
The problem is not with public transportation, the problem is that the area surrounding this highway was designed so that more cars and more lanes were the only possible solution.
Cars create problems that only cars can solve.
Edit: and to add more context: those 50 different locations are all separated by massive mandatory parking lots which make them miles apart from each other when they could likely all be contained in the same building in front of a single bus stop.
What does a 26 lane highway have to do with cities?
Everybody in this photo could fit in like 4 buses
Yeah I get that. I think it’s just odd to phrase it as emitting too much CO2, and not getting poor mileage.
4 gigs of ram, 100+ gigs of storage, and a cute design. Meh. At least it’s not totally useless.
To answer the question about it being in a movie, it’s because the director needed you to know the air was moving through a visual means.
I bought a Rabbit R1 for half off used on eBay, but only after I learned you can install full Android on it.
How often do prime numbers occur in epoch time?
