What exactly about the manual release damages the car? When my friend got his Model 3 he told me his friends would constantly use the manual release because the normal electronic one was less obvious. His car and doors didn’t break in any of those cases.

It’s honestly a smart idea, especially when waiting around at a charger while on a road trip or something.

AdGuard DNS is free and super simple to setup, no app required. It’s my favorite no-fuss solution I found when I switched from Android a few years ago.

adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

Go to that link, scroll down to method 2, and download an iOS profile. You’ll need to be using Safari for the download to work properly.

You get more customization and features through AdGuard’s app but then you have to pay a subscription for DNS blocking features. While it’s super cheap, I’ve personally been perfectly satisfied with this free solution. It blocks ads system-wide, not just in the browser. For example, in my shopping list app there’s usually a banner ad but it doesn’t load with the adguard DNS enabled. I’m 99% sure it won’t block ads in YouTube though (I sub to premium so I’ve never tried it.)

Next DNS is also free and appears to be the same thing but their website lets you fine-tune your profile, similar to using paid AdGuard. Might be worth looking into that, especially because it appears you can integrate AdGuard’s block list.

You can use AdGuard’s DNS to block ads system-wide. You don’t need to install any app.

adguard-dns.io/en/public-dns.html

Just scroll down to method 2 and download the profile from the iOS section. You’ll need to be using Safari for the download to work properly. Then if you ever need to disable it the setting is in Settings > General > VPN & Device Management

If you use the app then you have to pay for their subscription to use DNS features. If you don’t pay then you’re really just limited to adblocking in Safari. The profile I linked is free and will work for all apps. It’s not as robust or customizable as the AdGuard app, sure, but I’ve never had any real issues or need for anything more. Plus it’s one less app to have installed.

It’s personal preference mostly.

I would argue that someone saying “every piece of media” doesn’t care about that distinction.

Soooo people shouldn’t get paid for taking time to create books, movies, music, textbooks, newspapers?

The lack of a backlit screen completely kills my desire to get one of these- no matter how cool it is. Any time I pull out my old Gameboy Advance I’m instantly appalled by how difficult the screen is to view in less-than-ideal lighting conditions.

Crazy, I would have expected this when the iPhone 14 came out because that one was such a niche upgrade compared to the 15.

If you like it and it works for you, then great. I’m in the same boat.

It’s bad wording from the article. The actual Spotify support page says this:

We recommend resetting your Car Thing to factory settings and safely disposing of your device following local electronic waste guidelines. Contact your state or local waste disposal department to determine how to dispose of or recycle Car Thing in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

I never imagined I’d see Sonic Adventure 2 in theaters. I’m at maximum hype!

Not everyone wants to mod the game, though.

Meta is Opening Quest’s Operating System to Third-party Headsets (www.roadtovr.com)

Today Meta made what is likely to be an industry-altering announcement: it plans to open up the Quest operating system to third-party device makers. Asus, Lenovo, and Xbox have been tapped to create new headsets built on the operating system which is being branded ‘Meta Horizon OS’....

The company has already confirmed that Asus and Lenovo are building new headsets for Meta Horizon OS. Meta also says it’s collaborating with Microsoft on a “limited-edition Quest” that’s “inspired by Xbox,”

Damn, this was a fun game when it was on Stadia but the $20 price tag was a tough pill. Shame they repeated the same mistake.

The reveal video looks really good! Definitely some solid competition for EA and their upcoming Skate game.

Battlefront II 2017 still looks gorgeous and like it could have been released yesterday.

You shouldn't be able to join a competitive pvp match or start a raid without a working microphone

In games like Destiny or CS:GO for example, you should not even be allowed to start the activity without a working microphone. I dont care if you are antisocial, if that’s the case, those activaties aren’t for you and you shouldn’t bring down your entire team because of that....

Weird how this is an actual unpopular opinion, entirely fitting within this community, and it’s getting downvoted.
