Thanks for sharing. Largely just commenting to share support due to the large amount of AI hate you’re getting. This seems like a real app solving real problems (although personally I use audiobookshelf for syncing even if it’s hit or miss on actual ebooks).

What do you recommend instead for $30-40?

Actually most job growth has been in Healthcare, a field that is very resistant to AI right now. So if you remove that I think the trend is even less significant (and probably not anything that holds up to much scrutiny).

I’m not familiar with how womens rights developed in Hungary, but even from the Wikipedia page it says:

The series satirizes and parodies sexism, with many of the strips involving Jucika navigating unwanted attention from men and her efforts to get the better of it.

To me that’s a strong indication that the strips are supposed to be critiquing sexism, which means there is a message. Maybe Hungary was more progressive at the time, but in most of the world in the 1950s women had a rough time of things. Showing a strong female character who frequently outwits the men (and sometimes women) around her would definitely be seen by many in that time period as being pro-women/women’s rights.

Just some timelines to support my stance:

• Women only got the right to vote in Hungary in 1945 - https://redyellowblue.org/data/hu/wdhu/
• In the UK and US women wouldn’t get the right to open up a line of credit (loans, credit cards, etc) until the 1970s
• Some other random dates/events - https://www.theguardian.com/money/us-money-blog/2014/aug/11/women-rights-money-timeline-history

Edit: My main point being, just cause it doesn’t feel progressive today doesn’t mean it wasn’t back then.

Yeah, the article only compares “all occupations” and their flagged “AI sensitive - healthcare” which is a terrible comparison. Anyone paying attention to the job market knows that Healthcare has been basically carrying the job market recently. A fair comparison would exclude Healthcare on both sides. I suspect without Healthcare in the “all occupations” we’d see low to negative growth too.

Basically, the job market has been stagnant and/or shrinking in everything except Healthcare. When everyone is tightening their belt, sales/secrataries/assistant roles will probably feel it first.

I mean, there is a history of a lot of nations doing this.

I also use audiobookshelf in a weird way. I use it to read Manga and comics on my phone/e-reader.

While the folder structure it uses is a bit convoluted, the UI and apps are great.

Needing to report incidents isn’t being held accountable. They’re not facing any consequences for breaking the law.

I mean, it’s obviously the company. The issue is the government doesn’t want to actually legislate and determine how you address issues where there is prison time and or licenses get revoked.

Its also not a problem, it’s an abdication of responsibility. Either the government needs to take a stance or the cars shouldn’t be on the road. Seems like instead the government is willing to risk our safety rather than take any firm stance.

They’re currently breaking the law and not being held accountable. The threat of eventually being held accountable is a step in the right direction, but the only reason they’re able to do this right now is due to money.

The fact that they weren’t being ticketed before means that we don’t even really know how bad these cars are, and yet they’ve been allowed to stay on roads with pedestrians and other cars.

Tax bills are congress, the FCC is the executive. So, one requires bipartisan support, the other can just be decreed.

Yeah, I think we may keep photoshopped in the vernacular to describe real photos that have been edited.

There is a big difference between edited and completely fabricated.

No, just a typo the article says 600,000 or 600K

It took Google a year to sell over a million pixels when they released, they didn’t even hit 600,000 sold in their first 3 quarters (looking at all of North America) - https://coolest-gadgets.com/google-smartphone-statistics/

So 600,000 people putting down a $100 deposit for a terrible phone is definitely suspicious.

I guess I was thinking of companies with an international presence, or did Worldcom exist outside of north America?

Damn, I didn’t realize it was still that high. I know that yahoo finance was big for a long time, but figured that had finally passed.

I guess I wouldn’t count that as dead then.

Risks are only for those who play fair. I’m not sure if there is anything Trump and his family could do that would make them actually face consequences, besides maybe loosing the midterms.

Anyone else find it hard to believe that there were 600,00 orders for this. That feels like another money laundering situation.

Edit: 600K

Worldcom was more than 20 years, but I also don’t know how “big” they were.

Gateway and Compaq might count, although just around the cusp.

Yeah, I was kinda considering the phone part a separate business and it definitely died after MS bought them.
