It would already be mostly that way, but Apple, being the POS company that it is, refuses to switch their messaging system to RCS like everyone else. Apple wants to use only their proprietary imessage and it’s not compatible with everyone else. They are why all messages aren’t encrypted.
They’re also being forced/pressured into changing this in the near future, I believe.
You ever been hit with a waffle bat? Those fuckers hurt, man.
If I sell a million dollars of stock and pay $400k in taxes, I have $600k. If I give away $1,000,000 in unrealized gains I get either nothing, or I can do a tax write off and maybe save like $200k in taxes. Either way I’ll have less than the $600k I would have had. At best it’s a workaround to give several other people working for the “charity” money, but at that point why not just put those people on my own payroll and give them the $600k?
Then they didn’t actually give the money away, and they still aren’t saving or making more money themselves by doing that.
I think the original got re-touched up more recently, too. So you’ll probably have a hard time finding the theatrical release cgi version to even watch.
Signing the pledge doesn’t duck you out of any taxes. Also, giv8ng money away can lower taxes you pay, but it doesn’t lower them as much as the amount of money you gave away. Not how it works.
Yes, and I think in the context, that is implied. I’m not a cable internet provider advertising “50 Mb” speeds and confusing people when they only get like 6MB.
Old enough that the first PC I built had bunches of dip switches you had to flip around so it would know what to do, depending on what you were putting in it. You ever overclock a cpu by 3Mhz before?
By late 99 you could catch 10GB drives on sale for $99, dude. If you were cool you bought two of them and ran them in a raid configuration so you had 20GB of space and your drives read/write was way faster. 20GB single drives themselves were still a few hundred, but that was it. I think my pc from like 1995 had 4GB drive in it to start with.
Regardless of anything else, the posted numbers are obviously wack.
This chart is total bullshit on past pricing. Lots of it is wrong. It’s especially laughable to think that normal pc owners in 1999 were paying nearly $10,000 for a 20 GB hard drive. Let alone the cost 5 years before that. Lol

I owned the NES version of Skate or Die when I was a kid. One of the games I stupidly sold after getting a Sega genesis, though.
Womens rights don’t matter! This is for equality!
You’re taking too long to do the dishes.
Switches are like $15, dude.
I guess I’m “this old”? I remember watching the Berlin wall get smashed on TV, and the collapse of the soviet Union a year or two later. I was a Lil kid in the U.S, so both events meant fuck all to me. I was busy being awesome in my MC Hammer parachute pants.
I’m fine with the looks and hardware, except I’m not upgrading again for a wifi 6 router. I’ll wait till they make a 7. 7 has a couple pretty big improvements over 6.
It’s $90 and for if you want a wifi router. What are you missing?
The price is right for sure, but it’s still sad they didn’t shoot for wifi 7. It was a pretty big leap in latency reduction.
This is part of why I’m a pro gun leftist.
