@Daojoan@mastodon.social bootstrappers are also probably more likely to end up with a "cosy" business that treats its people with dignity and the "growth at all costs" is not a factor

@gruber@mastodon.social Tried hit Continue, it takes you to select payment. Went even further, just short of confirming payment, and then back. No dice. The exact same story on other platforms (Mac, Vision), so assuming it's a shared web view, not local.

@Drbruced in "running around the hood" it's around 300km when charged to 80%. For longer trips, it's ~350km for the same charge. Long term average is ~16.1kW/100 km.

@Drbruced a Countryman SE has been pretty good to us, fingers crossed

@feditips@mstdn.social Mastonaut on a Mac seems to work well, too.

@ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club (granted these banger folks probably don't have pipeline problem, so maybe have an ability for them to indicate if they're open to new clients, waitlist, or whatever)

"Sources: SpaceX is in talks with the DOD about providing the agency with access to data-center capacity worth billions of dollars for running AI models — Elon Musk's company would sell military billions of dollars' worth of data-center capacity for running AI models" Something you totally do when you've absolutely not overbuilt your infra

@gruber@mastodon.social looks like the slide is continuing unabated. They've removed the option to dismiss the "offer" for AppleCare plans. No more "Not now" button, so forced to stare at the (1) badge on Settings on all my platforms.

@ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club (prompted by the mention of how low the bar is these days) ever considered something like "I know a guy.." service/website for people to share (with permission of course) contacts of folks who have done a banger job for them? I'm thinking plumbers/electricians, car mechanics, etc.

@ludicity@mastodon.sprawl.club I agree it's not an easy one. After thinking about it a bit more - the good contractors probably don't have much pipeline problem and perhaps would appreciate "vetted" client referrals, too.. Would this topic be worth grabbing a coffee? ;)

@paul@tapbots.social providing users with a frequent dopamine hit of "ahh, fresh with something that's got better! even if I don't know what it is, it's BETTER" to addict them to the app (more than they already are)? I know it may be counter to how some folks would feel - I for one just feel annoyed, but I'm guessing companies track some metrics eg update downloads and time spent in app and see the frequent updates thing "working"?
