It’s funny how I’m the opposite. I play FPS games on my phone as good as with a mouse and keyboard. I like low profile laptop keyboards because I can type faster with minimal down distance and force per finger. In the car the touch screen is so much bigger and nicer than any button interface in a legacy car.
Looking at a touchscreen isn’t a big deal, people look down and around their cabin all the time while driving. People here sound like you have to be staring at the road without blinking to drive. In reality people are always looking around the cabin while driving for all sorts of reasons.
I love driving a Tesla with no buttons. I hate buttons. The two multipurpose buttons on the steering wheel are enough for me. I don’t even like having a HUD. Just useless information in front of my face. Just give me a big touch screen and I’m happy.
I guess when you give power to the people that means flash mobbing meme stocks. Not something traditional institutions have had to deal with before. Traditional users as well who don’t see what happened as good behavior. Robinhood handled it as well as could be expected.
I like Robinhood and I have no problem with them having technical issues when users a flash mobbed a meme stock. In the end they learned what to do next time.
Each PHP file is a magic hot swappable component. Not some bulky binary you have to full compile/deploy on every tiny change. What other web technology compares?
Show me a report, anything that says people are buying lots of Teslas to resell them for a profit.
Oh wait you can’t. What’s your argument, raising prices was a preemptive strike against scalping? That makes sense. Really your point was disproven like 5 posts ago. Inflation across the supply chain is obviously the reason for price increases.
Sorry it’s not all a conspiracy with Tesla lying about their motives. Maybe that’s easier to believe than accepting that you could be wrong.
If someone wants to pay a lot of money to a professional to create their brand identity that option is always there.
If someone else just needs something simple and passable there is Dalle.
And I’m sure there is every option in between where someone can use Dalle as a starting point and pass it to a pro, or a pro would even use Dalle as a way to brainstorm options.
Dalle is a tool that has empowered everyone. It shouldn’t be seen from a stereotypical luddite perspective as in your first post.
First your bank can’t move money from A as it doesn’t control A. A and C and services or even my personal wallet, not banks. The point is a bank is not needed to facilitate the transfer.
Instead of having to move money from wallet to bank to stock exchange, money can move directly from wallet to exchange and vice versa, no bank.
Say you want to move $ from service A to C, before Bitcoin it was not possible without a bank intermediary (B). There is processing time, high fees, business hours, etc.. So you’re handholding the process A to B then B to C.
With crypto I can move money directly A to C at 4am on a weekend, any amount, without talking to anyone for a tiny fee.
Or if I want to move it into my wallet and hold it personally I can do that do. Before Bitcoin that was literally impossible without physically walking into a bank.
The practical use case is pretty simple - being able to hold large sums of money yourself securely while being able to move it to who/where ever you want in less than an hour, 24/7, no questions asked.
Before Bitcoin it was practically impossible to do this without a bank as an intermediary and even then would require large fees, talking with people, lots of hang ups, just to manage your own money.
Increasing prices has nothing to do with scalping.
Just like Microsoft and Sony should of done with game consoles, but never did - Tesla has centralized buying which allows it to easily prevent scalping.
