Zukumber?

Fatherhood has no expiry date. If your son came to you asking for help, don’t overthink. Do the right thing and help him out, regardless of what he wants to shave.

On a side note, I suppose people may find it particularly challenging when it comes to giving others “thumbs down”. :(

We could always consider reaching out to Harrison Ford for a classic bot chase.

I understand your point. However, I believe Apple’s Vision Pro (at least the current iteration) was never intended as a mainstream product for the following reasons:

1. It’s unrealistic to expect a $3,500 headset to become a smashing hit overnight.

2. There’s limited software available to support it. Most applications merely showcase the use-case scenarios and potential of the hardware.

3. The device appears aimed at demonstrating Apple’s design capabilities and their “vision” of what an advanced headset should be.

Nevertheless, some news outlets report the product’s failure based on sales falling below 500,000 units in 2024. Apple Insider specifically reported approximately 370,000 units sold in the first three quarters of 2024.

While Apple has revised their expectations and reduced production, and interest has declined after the initial buzz, it’s worth noting a parallel: When Samsung first launched its Galaxy Fold, first-year sales fell significantly below forecasts. The product line has since improved over the years, though it’s not a major success compared to other Galaxy products.

The key questions now are: Will Apple discontinue this expensive proof of concept? Will there be an Apple Vision Pro 2? The answer might lie in monitoring competitors’ performance in this market. If other companies succeed with their smart glasses, Apple may introduce a scaled-down version of the Vision Pro, priced around $1,000, for their second attempt.

But as always, crystal ball gazing is a tough game.

Every robot should have some kind of electronic blinker to let others know they’re robots. That way, we can avoid a bunch of bumps and crashes.

Or private jets, or luxury watches. It’s a long list…

Apple’s development kit offers cutting-edge technology at a price point accessible to those who can afford it. For individuals like me, who need to prioritize essential expenses, spending $3,500 isn’t feasible. However, if circumstances were different, this would undoubtedly be an exciting gadget to explore.

It is the same, sorry. When you hire a third party to build or expand your business, you’re accountable for what happens under your nose. Simply pointing fingers to outsourced work as if it were beyond one’s control does not cut here. If you wish to operate in Brazil, you must comply with local legislation. And stating that some companies break the law is the same as saying that some people are turning a blind eye to the legislation, too. BYD management must choose which side of the legal fence they want to be. Cheers!

Hope that helps.

Not for any particular reason, but for a variety of reasons that work together to make it even better. I have listed just a few of them. Feel free to add to the list as you see fit.

• No king of the hill.
• No hidden corporate interests.
• No karma system.
• Rejection of toxicity. The flow of conversation is civil and has a good vibe.
• The Federation functions as an engine of accountability.
• A bunch of people who actively contribute to making this a good place.
• A vocal community that actually determines what content is important.
• The initial difficulty to make sense of it all (call it a “barrier to entry” if you will) acts as a natural deterrent to those who are less engaged.
• Lurkers who sign up quickly feel comfortable posting.
• The ability to sign up for a particular instance and leave if for some reason you find it’s going in a direction you do not agree with. Lemmy’s decentralized nature saves the day.
• The influx of refugees includes experienced people with a lot of knowledge to make this an even better place.
• The prospect of a quick release of reputable third-party apps. Since these developers bring solid knowledge from previous developments, their new Lemmy apps will immediately translate into a smoother user experience.

I am looking forward to great days ahead.
