Slight tangent, but I recently cleaned out the house of a parent after they passed away. There were boxes and boxes of family photo albums. We kept them for a while out of guilt, but we really didn't know anyone in the photos aside from one or two people. Eventually we got rid of them. Point being the value of your stuff is probably far less to others then it is to you, especially photos to future generations.

Yep. Can't put my finger on what's happening there exactly, but there's some kind of mental health crisis going on and it's very public.
Such a beautiful game. My wife and I affectionately referred to it as "Rats". Looking forward to whatever they cook up next, great storytellers.
"You're not into me, baby?"
"It's not you, it's galactic cosmic rays"
That's an antitrust case if ever I saw one.
It's crazy they felt this was a necessary step vs creating their own online storefront. I understand the convenience and appeal of Amazon when it comes to daily basics and essentials. But a car? How often does one buy a car?
Remember Uber Air? Still waiting...
Cleaning gutters or windows up high or cutting back large trees both seem dangerous enough, but I'm sure people will volunteer for it if they need the money.
I discovered this very quickly after breaking a finger. One-finger typing didn't slow me down at all. Turns out my brain was the bottleneck.
A targeted phishing email is usually pretty sophisticated and requires days or weeks of research. For example, you might send an email pretending to be from someone's IT department regarding a hardware audit, and ask a user to report back with the barcode sticker on their laptop, providing them with a photo of an example tag in similar format. You'll pretend to be a specific individual at the company, or a contractor the company actually uses, and show knowledge of the internal software and hardware, and refer to other real employees by name/email to establish trust. Most of this data will be scraped from publicly available sources like LinkedIn profiles, job listings, and photos shared on social media by employees. This process is called OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence) and it's a fascinating rabbithole to read about. Targeted phishing attempts are much, much more sophisticated than the ones you'll see in spam email.
I'm surprised they don't gift YouTube Premium to Google One subscribers. The same way Amazon does with their streaming service and Prime.
I'd much rather they invest efforts into supporting customisable phones. Instead of just releasing a few flavours of the same hardware each year, give us a dozen features we can opt into or not. Pick a base size, then pick your specs. Want a headphone jack, SD card, FM radio, upgraded graphics performance? No problems, that'll cost a bit extra. Phones are boring now - at least find a way to meet the needs of all consumers.
