This was an April Fool’s Day offering from ThinkGeek that was turned into a real product to meet popular demand. I’d rank it second after the Tauntaun sleeping bag.
"Some of the more popular items, however, were made into actual products, such as "Canned Unicorn Meat", the cecaelia-themed "Tentacuddle Blanket", the Tauntaun sleeping bag, and the "Technomancer Hoodie"." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkGeek
"Remodernism is a stuckist philosophical movement aimed at reviving aspects of modernism, particularly in its early form, in a manner that both follows after and contrasts against postmodernism." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remodernism
Yes, they do not deserve immortality.
The band Milli Vanilli was also announced as a performer, though one of its singers, Jodie Rocco, said on Thursday that the group had not been asked to appear.
What the actual f*** is happening?
I know a couple that equitably changed their last name to Morningstar. Bold, easy to spell, and it is translated from the real German surname Morgenstern, so it’s a real old-world name. You could do something similar and go with Olga Wintersnow or Gretchen Summerday.
At least it’s a quick death. The crater left by the asteroid that theoretically killed the dinosaurs is 100 miles wide. That mushroom cloud covers like a thousand times that direct impact area and will burn until there’s no oxygen.
I would recommend disabling functionality while driving rather than outright not having the phone available because if you need to call for help, you might have to do it quickly. There are apps like Dumb Phone for iPhone and devices like Brick that will do the work for you.
I set a focus mode on my iPhone to trigger when connected to my car’s Bluetooth (not the standard Driving focus mode) that switches the Home Screen to one with only the widgets I’d use for driving, such as Maps, Music, and various playlist shortcuts. Notifications are limited to VIPs. I also have an automation that locks the screen if sensitive apps, like Settings and Wallet, are opened when away from home (I have a shortcut to disable the automation when necessary).
In your situation, I’d expand that to lock out every app except Maps, parking apps, etc., when in driving focus. Audio apps would be locked so I’m not doomscrolling through choices, options would be limited to what’s shown in the widgets and accessible through Siri and/or a preset shortcut. Could add further measures to dissuade me from disabling the lock.
A secret order that requires going to secret court to refute is not a request.
That’s an actual use case, not future. Camera Control enables quick access to visual intelligence.
A few things to keep in mind: military service is mandatory in Israel, and Unit 8200 does signal intelligence, corresponding to the U.S. National Security Agency, which is our largest employer of mathematicians. Any Israeli with advanced knowledge of mathematics, cryptography, etc. has almost certainly served in Unit 8200.
Nothing. They’re investing in glass and chip manufacturing. “Apple is establishing the American Manufacturing Program (AMP) […] partners include Corning, Coherent, GlobalWafers America, Applied Materials, Amkor, Texas Instruments, Samsung, GlobalFoundries, and Broadcom.”
Note: none of this covers Apple silicon, but there are like a dozen other chips in an iPhone, and iPhones can’t ship without them.
Yes, but I do not give Musk credit for recognizing a good thing and then taking it from Tesla’s founders.
