In the same way that we should stop consuming media that blames everything on millennials, we should stop consuming media about how uniquely difficult it is for millennials.
Complaining about the younger generation, and the younger generation complaining that they have it uniquely difficult, has been the experience since the invention of teenagers. It was my experience, and it'll be the same experience when millennials are my age.
I recently switched from Google Maps to Apple Maps in an effort to de-google, but this seems like an even better alternative.
Does it work with CarPlay?
EDIT: It looks like it does.
I got mad at my iPhone yesterday because I asked Siri to navigate home using Apple Maps, and it said that I hadn't shared my location with Siri so that wasn't possible. No... I shared my location with Apple Maps, open the app and have it navigate home. If you're not going to allow me to use native iPhone features with Apple Maps, I'll just use something else.
I got way way too into fantasy football. I didn't have a dangerous amount of money invested in it (this was before DraftKings and the rise of addictive gambling apps), but I had like 5 teams and spent endless amounts of time trying to predict who would score points every week, reading stats and articles, and would watch football all day Sunday, and Monday and Thursday nights, as well as highlight shows and analysis.
At some point I just said "What am I doing?" and reclaimed my time. It felt great. No regerts. I don't even watch football anymore.
Where I live, I see tons of cars every day with fake, missing, invalid, and foreign license plates every day. Enforcement would require cops to get out of their cars and expend effort over an administrative violation, so nothing happens.
These plates are "illegal"? Meh.
You are 100% correct.
Look at OPs meme and ask the obvious question: "Why is this moving to the right, and not to the left? Aren't both options equally possible?"
The answer is that it moves to the side that wins elections.
"Why is the right winning elections" is the much much better question to ask. In the meantime, do everything you can to move the center in the other direction one step at a time, and that doesn't come about by losing elections while standing on principle.
Why would anyone load an app from McDonalds? You want to give them elevated access to your most personal data for a few dollars of coupons?
What are they taking from you that's worth more than the discounts they are giving you? Because they are definitely making a profit, or they wouldn't be doing it.
I hate the argument that it's not the insurance companies fault for high prices. If they are struggling so much, how come they are so fucking profitable.
Lets fix both, and not complain about the order if we make incremental progress one-at-a-time.
I miss targeted advertisements. It's important that my OS tracks what my interests are, so that I can be served more relevant advertising.
Advertising that doesn't know my interests doesn't hold my interest, and having no ads means that I have no idea what I'm supposed to purchase next. It's crazy.
Despite what everyone told me on message boards about lack of support for Adobe products and CAD software... somehow I've been really successful on linux-only for many many years now.
It's really nice. Remember when your computer was actually yours? You choose what apps to install, what configuration you want, and who you share your data with? Those dreams are alive with Linux: Not just for nerds anymore.
Anytime you see a map of the US with "preference by county", go ahead and pull up a map of the US at night from space next to it.
You'll see that once choice is generally where electricity is, and the other choice is where it's dark.
The court ruled that Fontes had not provided sufficient proof that releasing the list posed a danger to voters.
(24 hours later)
Holy crap! They're going after the voters! Nobody could have seen this coming!
Oh, you shouldn't do that.
