It depends on how you’re holding it and how spread that heat is. 46° isn’t something great to be grasping for extended periods of time, but if you’re physically touching 30°C parts of the phone and a part with no physical contact with your skin is 46°C, it’s probably not that bad.

My s7 edge used to hit these temps. The annoying part was the throttling and shutdowns. I never really felt like I was burning my hands using the thing.

There’s a man in the clouds who blows really hard.

But the plants he eats grow in sunlight.

What if the turbines are hooked up to an electric milling machine ?

When skynet comes online, I’ll die quickly, being mopped to death. You’ll have to struggle in the post apocalyptic hellscape where humans fight robots with A-10s for some reason.

Well, that’s as good of a reason as any to delete the app.

The ADA issues at play in the lawsuit largely stem from ADA claims against websites.

It’s a real issue where some small business makes a non-ADA compliant website and gets shaken down by sketchy law firms that hire disabled people to be straw plaintiffs (AKA “testers”) to find websites that are in violation.

From the article:

The ADA permits a plaintiff challenging a violation of this rule to obtain an injunction requiring a non-compliant hotel to fix its website, and it allows that plaintiff to have their attorney’s fees paid by the defendant if the plaintiff prevails in court. But the plaintiff may not obtain money damages if they prevail.

So some small business has to fix their website that the “tester” never would have used on their own, and they have to pay the law firm that hired the tester’s legal fees too. And then the law firm pays the tester.

The ADA is a pre-internet rule, and its enforcement mechanism and regulations around have never been updated for the digital age, so scummy lawyers are making a killing off it.

For the record, the solution is easy: update the ADA like disability advocates have been calling for ages.

When did people read the article on old reddit?

2004?

Don’t worry, he’ll upset Putin soon enough.

Wifi under the old standard?

It’s not even a ponzi scheme, it’s just a good old fashioned bubble.

It’s digital tulips.

You can hardly blame that just on Gates. Every moron in the government has been pushing standardized tests as some way of grading teachers and schools for decades at this point, and this program coincided with Obama’s equally disastrous and very similar federal program. Which was an improvement over Bush’s even more disastrous program.

Especially when you realize Gate’s program was of limited scope while Dubbya/Obama/Trump’s DOE’s fuckups covered the entire country for a far longer period of time.

Admittedly, you’d need a layer of ozone (self sustaining so long as you don’t have some kind of chemical that causes ozone to not form, but who’d have that?). And probably some kind of hot liquid metal contraption in the middle of the earth, sustained by, like Uranium decay or tidal friction or something, to generate a magnetic field to protect us.

Some Irish people would probably still die of radiation poisoning on beaches, but that’s a sacrifice the rest of us are willing to make.

They’re coming back. The Galaxy S 23/22 Ultra both are squared.

Insurance would have to prove the modification caused the accident by disabiling some safety mechanism.

Legally, software mods and hardware mods are no different, and people have been modifying their cars well before you could hack a seat heater on.

Modifying your car isn’t a valid reason to yank coverage in most circumstances.

Even making your car faster isn’t enough, assuming your mods are street legal.

BMWs have had this, to some extent, for a while. Bimmercode can do things like change sounds and enable software disabled features, like anti dazzle lights. (This is disabled because the NHTSA refuses to adopt ways for them to be easily tested in the US, despite their being approved for decades in Europe and a congressional mandate telling them to allow them on the roads, so every automaker has to disable them.)

No exploits needed.

It’s also really stupid because the idea is to create a system that’s better than humans. And let me tell you, people miss stuff all the time when driving. Tons and tons of accidents are caused by “negligent” drivers who looked both ways and missed someone due to a visual processing error or literally not being able to see something.

Yeah. GM’s subscription nonsense is for their ice cars too. BMW’s aborted seat heater thing was too.
