Because it's a meaningful distinction. The issue isn't them passing the cost to their customers. It's them lying about their prices instead of telling you what they're going to charge you.

Over a city? Easy.

I prefer some population, but as far as I'm concerned cities are unlivable. I have to have space.

You can also replace the internal storage yourself. The cost doesn't get that meaningful until 1 TB + for the new drive.

And of course it will be impossible to remove this watermark programs can see programmatically because humans can't see it, right?

I mean, go for it if you want. We're already, today, past the point where a photo or video in and of itself constitutes reliable evidence due to how close known tools can get. You need to show chain of custody like you would any other forensic evidence, including a credible original source on the record, for it to be actually reliable. Faking anything is absolutely plausible.

The article doesn't say they're failing. It says they're burnt out and don't want to start another game.

I don't think it means they're guaranteed to be done forever.

I'm fine with whatever way they want to go. Zappe has been playing games with trying to be Mahomes with stupid arm angles and shit all summer, so while he was a serviceable backup and I absolutely wanted him over Hoyer last year, he's regressed hard and broke his mechanics on a guy that had a low ceiling regardless.

I just really wasn't expecting it at all. He was never competitive with Mac despite all the noise around here, but as bad as he was they saw what worse looks like, too, and it's not exactly a position that's deep around the league. I liked the idea of keeping Cunningham around and seeing if he can clean up mechanics and compete for the backup job next year, but he's not ready to be even the backup plan for the backup spot at this point. They have to be bringing someone in and the options are never all that interesting.

I thought they were clones of each other. I didn't realize they were all the same people.

That's rough.

I genuinely do understand the realities of manufacturing niche stuff making the high price kind of unavoidable, but you have to have high build quality to justify it to the consumer.

These things are cool in theory, but $100 before the computer is past what I'd pay for a novelty.

Holy shit. I have 25k and I thought that was a lot. Almost all raw, but still. A million, compressed or not, is insane.

Edit: barring professional use, but apple photos just doesn't have the management for that.

Holy shit Patriots cut Zappe.

I thought he kind of sucked this year, but even as roster manipulation, he has to clear waivers and you have to have a body.
