Add “, yet” to the headline and come back in a year or two.

Currently AI may fail to produce a video game, but so was the case for images, videos, and texts only a few years ago.

Failure is a good thing because it’s preceded by attempt.

Apple started out with desktop computers. So by ‘staying in their lane’, they’d never made ipods, iphones, Apple silicon, earpods and airpods, the watch, etc. I think they had quite the success by diversing themselves.

Thank you for explaining. That’s a thing most sites leave out: tell people how the keys cannot be stolen while still working on a different device.

The advantage - from my very incomplete understanding - is that your passkeys cannot be phished or stolen from you. So only you from your device can log-in to the site. Which leaves me with the question, how cross-device passkeys work.

So why keep this useless, failed platform in the news? Stop giving Musk publicity of any kind.

Who would buy stuff from a person they never heard of? How did they get popular?

You’re under no obligation to watch anything.

The one with Sandra Bullock? Concept-wise it was quite realistic. But the hacking itself, man that was some unbelievable stuff. I don’t think they got any fact or term right. Almost as if the OG Clippy helped: “It looks like you want to make a hacker-related movie…”

Man, Mark Zuckerberg’s gotten old.

Benchmarks could become interesting in seven years when the Pixel 8 will still get software support. Making this big promise and starting off with this mediocre SoC is either brave or…not very foreseeing.

That’s quite a bottleneck and efficiency can’t tackle every software challenge from here to the year 2030.

Wasn’t there already a feature or two that the “old” Pixel predecessor won’t receive?

But your “solution” sounds like you don’t contribute at all. Especially none of the content creators gets a dime out of your consumption.

Look at all the free image / video services that either never took off or went bust. Especially streaming is quite expensive and isolating only this single aspect of Youtube - cost to operate: what do people expect? Everybody wants few to no ads at all and no subscription either.

As I said, I don’t want to even touch any other topic here like Youtube’s (perceived) quality or their (spicy) business decisions. If you don’t like the product, don’t use it. There is no right to free consumption of entertainment videos. Imagine paying for a taxi like you (don’t) pay for Youtube.

And if you know better, start your own platform.

Also, feature phones have cameras

I know the camera quality of this device category. They’re all crap, no exception. And even if you buy the best of the best it will cost you as much as a sophisticated smartphone that does everything better apart from maybe stand-by battery. Which is fine for an emergencyphone.

and some basic apps.

Mostly preinstalled because no app store, non-removable, and you never have to worry about missed updates because you won’t get any.

They’re not actually 80s cordless phones.

Agree, because they’re 2003 cordless phones and they suck for the everyday life of most people.

I have never met anyone else with this setup.

That’s what I mean.

I think it’s a fad. The moment you need a certain app or feature these feature (-less) phones become frustrating quickly.

Take the idea of taking a break from your smartphone on a vacation. You end up without a camera, without a map, without public transport apps, contact-free payment, etc.

It’s directly in the headline: Gen Z is ditching the iPhone. That’s incorrect in two ways: A) it’s at best one in fifty people buying aforementioned feature phones and B) they don’t even know if all buyers replace their existing phone or buy it as an additional handset.

No they don’t. What a rubbish clickbait article.

All they say is that there’s a (niche) trend of a few people using feature phones with expected combined sales of $2.8 million. Versus the $200 billions of iPhones alone.
