For your car repair example, it would kinda be like someone got that and then started going to every crash up derby they could find.

No, it’s actually more like you bought the car because you know you’re going to rack up a million miles every year. Out of the norm but not an asshole move.

If Google didn’t want to lose here, they could have not had that feature.

200TB is a lot of data and a completely reasonable amount if you are doing a lot of filming. HD film takes up a lot of space, especially if it’s raw.

This sort of usage is so predictable I can’t imagine Google didn’t consider it when pricing things out. Heck, they advertised the unlimited storage space being useful FOR preserving photos and video.

Why give a company that spent 26 billion dollars making their search engine the default everywhere because they don’t want to spend the 1 million dollars it’d require to continue supporting a product they advertised. They could have ended new sign ups and just supported existing customers.

I’m saying that Google should not be allowed to sell a product with an advertised feature to gain advantage over competitors only to later change their mind and remove that feature when they deem it too costly.

A multibillion dollar advertising company should have to support the products they sell.

If you bought a car and one of the features sold was “free repairs for the life of the vehicle” you’d be rightly upset if a year later the dealer emailed you to say “actually, this was too expensive to support so we are cancelling the free repairs, but you can still pay us to repair your vehicle or we’ll sell you a new one, aren’t we generous!”

but I’m not exactly sure what he was expecting. Storing files is an ongoing expense

He was expecting a company that promised unlimited data to not reneg on their advertised product. Or to simply delete data they promised to store because it’s inconvenient for them.

Yeah, it costs money to store things, something Google’s sales, marketing, and legal teams should have thought about before offering an “unlimited” product.

On the ballot “Putin” or “Frontline”.

The other treks are more idealized, heroized, professional.

Which is something LD likes to poke fun at.

As a pedestrian, this is why wearing high viz/lighted clothing at night is so important.

Depends on the chemistry. I’d want NMC batteries outside and LFPs can be anywhere.

How many of these advertisers pulled support previously and then silently started advertising again when the heat is off?

Makes sense that Israel assesses that they have less resources than the US, and thus can’t fight the same way and have a hope of success.

Israel has one of the most powerful militaries in the region, with 500,000 troops, a $20 billion dollar budget, and shared tech with the US. They have no external bases to maintain. They’re terrorists who live at the border in 140 square miles with roads Israel designed to allow their tanks easy access.

In the first week of this genocide, Israel dropped more bombs than the US did during the entire Afghanistan war. On one of the most population dense regions in the world.

But further, Israel immediately cut power and water to Gaza. 2 million people went without water and electricity to attack how many Hamas terrorists?

And let’s be clear, this all happened because IDF forces were busy in the West Bank evicting Palestinians from their homes for settlers leaving the Gaza border unguarded.

It’s mostly a religious belief. There are a couple of Bible verses that say things like “the earth will be rolled up like a scroll” and “spread to the four corners of the earth”.

Biblical literalists cannot handle the Bible being incorrect about anything, so it’s everyone else that’s wrong.

At least they’ve neutralized all those 5 year old leaders and infant sympathizers.

That’s because ♫I’ve got faith of the heart, I’m going where my heart will take me♫

Check out the forums again, they are still around in a lot of cases and sometimes more active than what you’ll find on reddit.

AFAIK, the main bottleneck is data storage. Related to processing power, but also IO and having a central source of truth.

Except apparently Israel because they are bombing the event living shit out of Gaza. Hostages aren’t bomb proof, so tell me, how does Israel know they’ve not killed some when they kill 30 civilians to kill a Hamas leader (whose name slips them at the moment)

This feels a bit like saying “you know, the trail of tears was bad, but we don’t bring up the complex issues of Cherokee slavery”.

Sharia law isn’t a monolithic belief and is subject to reform. But it’s entirely a secondary consideration when you have a state committing genocide.

Sure, this is why the American Britain war is still waged today. It’s also why France has been relentlessly attacking England. And obviously, the British bombing of Ireland is what ended the IRA.

Besides peace, genocide is the only way to end Hamas. And that’s what you are cheering for. Israel is creating the next generation of terrorists by terrorizing the Palestinians.

What unending string of terrorism? Before Oct 7, when was the last Israeli killed or injured by Hamas?

But to answer your question, the best response is securing the boarder and asking yourself “what could be the motivation for these attacks?”. It’s to try and seek/broker peace.

I’d suggest reading up on the IRA and the good Friday agreement to see how a government can end an unending string of terrorism. A relentless show of force is how the US created ISIS. That’s what Israel is doing right now.
