also why every single car company sells their entry-level (sub)compacts with razor thin margin. they hope someone will buy them as their first car and then buy a new Honda/Toyota/Ford/Chevy every 3-5 years for the rest of their lives, eventually moving up to the expensive luxury marques.

also true on the lux badges, low margins on the entry level 3 series and their ilk

any plane can drop a jdam, the us has implied permanent air superiority in that they'll just blow up any country's air force before they do anything else anyway, attack aircraft are a 20th century concept

the AC-130U "Spooky" is a cool plane too, just flies slowly around the battlefield with a light artillery piece pointed at the ground

its kinda hosed up to call it a battlefield when a plane that any man-portable anti-aircraft missile could shoot down easily can loiter for hours overhead

i can't find a copy of it but on a pre-release version of this icon the designer messed up the colour of the circle inside the pin (made it grey) and it looked normal on his computer screen but when you saw it on your actual iphone there was this weird optical effect that was literally uncomfortable. hard to describe but you'd look at the icon and it just felt physically bad.

actually all those smart home things seem good to me.

even the thermostat, since my GF can just not stop loving with the thermostat. I'd just program it to undo whatever she does when she looks away.

but so far it seems like a lot of wasted potential if it's just " a INSERT-APPLIANCES-HERE with an iPhone app "

as a product for consumers, yes it sucks

but being a freelance dev guy i was looking into accepting Square or something

as it is my clients pay $1.50 to pay with interact e-transfer, a dumb canadian thing

square would charge me $24 loving dollars per transaction ( once a week )

i imagine there is a regular Visa rate that they are paying then marking it up to 2.75%

maybe apple can get that rate down to whatever Visa's base rate is, which i think i remember is like 1%??

anyway, what i'd like to see is phone-to-phone apple pay between individuals, but for really cheap or free. and currentC, since they don't have to pay CC rates, could actually have done that.

lol

yes, every detail of every transaction is collected for marketing purposes, its a pain in the rear end to use, and links directly to my bank account, but i saved $1.50

its better than that, even (lol if you think anyone at goog is paying attention to how much ventilation system would cost to run)
