Yeah, Subaru is getting rid of the Legacy sedan in 2025 and keeping the Impreza hatchback because the Impreza shares parts with their larger SUVs. The Legacy doesn’t, so it makes them more money to get rid of the car.

The lowest tech car I could find was the Mitsubishi Mirage G4, and they told me it’s being discontinued this year! I think that leaves the Nissan Versa as the only subcompact entry-level vehicle on the market.

What I care more about is making cars… cars. Visit a dealership in the US and it’s 98% SUV/Truck and 2% sedans.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

All I know is that if my country was entirely digital in payments, I’d be between a rock and a hard place.

same checking number, new account. The branch manager was 100% sure that any autopay using the current card would not be automatically updated because the new card would not be considered a successor to my current card.

She even showed me the scenario play out in the card ordering software.

Yeah, I can’t explain the limitation either. That’s how all my cards worked before when they changed numbers after expiration, but the branch manager was very clear that the current debit card would be canceled not reissued. So it’s a new account under my name with the tap card. They even showed me the software used to order replacements, and my card type was cleared marked DO NOT USE.

Correct. The card is not tap. The only cards they can order now are tap, so to get a replacement they have to cancel the card and issue a brand new one, messing up any autopay tied to the current number and leaving me without a payment method while the new one arrives.

This would suck so bad. My debit card’s chip went bad and the bank can’t reissue me a new one until it expires. I’ve been using cash as a fallback when I don’t want to do the ‘3 chip failure timeout then swipe’ dance just to purchase some soda.

The money must grow.

Any source on that mac claim? I’ve not seen any proof of that at all.

(Edit: To clarify, I know people are saying they use MacOS here, but I don’t think the claim that most tech people in corporate settings use MacOS to be true. I only have my personal experience in a very large corporate environment, and am asking for information as every team I’ve worked with was using Windows.)

gradients, animated GIFs, “best browsed on”, and a frame once you click enter. Only thing it’s missing is an index page.

Did they comment on why it was deleted? I didn’t see anything in the article. I recall the consensus was that they made so many mistakes the only way to fix it was deletion of the repo.

I also saw in one of the comments of the Arstechnica article that the one who pushed for open-source wanted to clean up the code before publishing. Management said no, the entire team got fired/left, and suddenly the code got published with all that commercial stuff left in. Sounds about right.

I thought he announced his retirement last year? or was that one of those “one more project and then I’m done” kind of announcements

Microsoft is certainly doing an excellent job driving away Xbox users. What else do they have? Azure maybe?

This is the one that got me when I was younger:

Turns out its a platform puzzle game with no attack button. Enemies can only be defeated by pushing blocks onto them.

Oddly enough, I ended up buying Shadow Dancer specifically because the cover was so bizarre.

An old man with a bat protects a young woman from a plate armored man attacking both of them with a longsword, as a scared dog flees into a burning city in the distance.

Google saw this coming years ago. That’s why they restructured, clearly defining their different services, and became Alphabet.

I had a better experience with T-Mobile back in their un-carrier days. Once they dropped that facade and started matching the other two I noticed a dramatic shift in pricing and support.

I don’t know when the merger rules with Sprint expired, but I would guess it was probably around the same time.

Two questions:

Are you connecting via USB or Bluetooth?

Do you have a toggle anywhere to put the device into XInput mode?
