I've heard it is utter fucking trash

I have a hard time seeing why the average person should have a zero to 60 in the sub 6 second range. People fucking suck at driving.

I think lower income parents are just very low on overall bandwidth in terms of time, energy, and money.

Low quality processed food is quick to prepare and relatively affordable. These people also disproportionately live in "food deserts."

And when you're low on said bandwidth you're not as likely to be able to support your kid through extra curricular activities. Instead, plopping them in front of the TV is a real easy way to get some downtime for yourself.

I just don't think these folks are getting home from their soul crushing low wage jobs and cooking up organic balanced meals from whole ingredients and then taking the kids to soccer practice and ballet by and large. They're fucking spent in more ways than one.

It's definitely a bigger thing in some parts of the country and those areas for sure seem to line up with economic factors. When I lived in the US I spent most of my life in the southeast. Then when I moved to a bigger west coast city I was really struck by how much thinner the population as a whole was there. Same with states like Colorado.

There's some obvious correlation happening

Yeah it is Disney after all, wouldn't surprise me. Honestly that character sucks anyway.

The flag of losers since 1865

Because of course

Yeah I've recently gone the self hosted route for video and may go for audio soon too, but not quite there yet. I think for now I can deal with the few minor annoyances I have with Overcast.

What I'd really like to see someone crack is an machine learning prodcast player that can snip out ads. A few of the podcasts I like have gotten fucking insufferable for ads lately.

Yeah the Pocketcasts pricing is stupid as hell. I've been having some issues with Overcast and was looking to switch but there's no way that price is worth it.

The outrage these assholes are feeling is what the rest of us feel every time we see them trying to force their dogma into every facet of society.

The availability of Tizen apps is abysmal

Lotta manufacturers have done that. I had an Android phone back in the day that was notorious for false positives on the moisture detectors. The phone was a piece of shit and a lot of people wrongly got denied on warranty claims because of supposed moisture.
