Because banks decided it’s cheaper to do an app than to pay for people available in branches.

So the same operation is 2mins on the app, or 10mins driving to the nearest branch (YMMV), 20mins waiting in line (YMMV), 5mins to get it done, 10mins to go back.

Oh, you also have the option to wait for 1h on the phone…

There’s something to say about how an idiot you must be to buy a Cybertruck to start with: it’s less capable than other electric (or not electric) pick-up, it’s unecessarily big, it’s fragile and expensive, and owning one doesn’t convey the image of their buyers they think it conveys.

And so not surprisingly, that pool of people counts amongst the biggest idiots who will do these kind of idiot tests.

I can’t but wonder how many CT buyers would be dead by now if Musk had claimed the CT can glide.

It’s not like we don’t know the playbook already.

Now you know brain implants will be used as an authentication system, to protect the children, prevent spam, and maybe they’ll manage to add something about terrorism in the justification.

I’ve seen corporates layoff massively people in Q4 and hire just as many people in Q1 the very next year. No apology (are you fucking kidding??), no self-reflection, just “the market changed and we need to react to it!”.

So no, it’s not going to be funny. It’s going to be a blood bath and chaotic times.

And the leaders in 2030 will still claim they did an outstanding job and give themselves generous bonuses.

You do whatever you want, but out of curiosity: how is that helping with this issue in anyway?
pmOS does not have Google Play nor the Apple equivalent. GOS has the option of having a sandboxed Google Play.

The writer is aware of the T&C, they know it was modified. It’s in the article.

They report customers have received an email telling them they won’t get their phones nor their deposit back.

You’re all riled up agaings the journalist because the T&C stipulates refunds will be honored.

So, to summarize: you’re mad at the journalist because the email customers received contradicts the T&C on the website?

But that would have required actual work on their part, and maybe, just maybe they have enough self-awareness to realize they would probably have screwed this up and made no profit.

The article clearly mentions the T&C were changed in April. Did you racually read it before getting mad at these journalists?

Nah. It’s obviously someone else’s faults because Trump never does anything wrong, ever, and saying this is because of Trump is probably treason or some shit.

And they will listen, conclude he’s an admirable man and vote for him again if they have the opportunity.

I wasn’t counting on Samsung. Indeed: Samsung already meets all the criteria to support GOS, but they cripple their phone upon alternative OS installation.

There are other phone makers left.

That’s probably ok. Google doesn’t give a damn about protecting websites from bots. They just want to know what YOU are doing on the web.

We’ll talk about that again when all banks, online reservation, government websites all require the new captcha.

Oh, but you can still join us by phone to talk to an AI agent or wait forr 240mins of average waiting time for a human operator.

Probably not, but my expectations is the EU will slam them with a record fine of 0.03% of their monthly revenue after 5 years of investigations and obligation to provide an alternative solution, that they will work around so it still does not fix anything.

By the time the damages would be done.

Has anyone seen the benefits of EU’s mandatory opening of chat systems to third parties yet??

Per GOS: Samsung has almost all hardware requirements to support GOS except… they purposely cripple their device upon installation of a third party OS. One can only suspect they indeed make money with their spyware stack!

That’s borderline with the purity fallacy: that one should not deserve privacy and security because of one or more bad practice.

I believe not so many people give away “everything”, and many more probably don’t realize how much they give.

There are many reasons one would keep a FB account, or a Google account around. That does not mean that person abandoned all rights on privacy and even less on security.

And how would you recommend a soft transition if you’re in a all-or-nothing approach? One day on Google, FB, what’s not, and in an instant: new device, new OS, drop everything at once? Nearly no one will do that.

The reason GOS does not support more devices is not because of where other brands vs privacy and security, it’s a pure hardware requirements they don’t meet. If the Motorola devices are a commercial success, most likely other phone makers will be interested.

The remaining humans in ATC for “not having supervised the AI agents appropriately”, of course!

You don’t need to go that far. Arrest and jail the CEO, and tell the execs you’ll come back for them in 3 days.

I absolutely guarantee you the bad practice stops within 24 hours (or some smartass may try to hide it better, might warrant a few years in jail with the commoners, of course).

There should be a group of inner people that the law protects but does not bind and an outer group that the law binds but does not protect.

And he’s not a child rapist billonaire, so not in the right group!

I thought we were calling these “layoffs” and their less fun variant “attrition”?
