If only we had a series of pneumatic tubes connecting all our homes, you could order something online and have it pop up right next to you minutes later.

What do all the people downvoting it based on the title assume it means?
Traditionally both parties had to agree to get divorced if there had not been some “grounds” for the divorce that could be proved in court. That’s why the classic business for old timey private detectives was proving that their client’s spouse was committing adultery in order to legally justify a divorce.
Yeah I actually came across this statistic in this article about those guys wanting to make divorce much harder, which linked to the study: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/05/no-fault-divorce-gop-republicans-mainstream-podcast-dudes/
Any time a company is pushing a change this hard I know it’s not something I want.
So trashy
Yeah I think it’s pretty much just in NYC for now, with a big launch in Minneapolis in progress. Hopefully they get to Denver soon!
How is that different from the usual way of having a password as your way of accessing your phone?
This is one of many reasons you should use a password of some kind that you keep inside of your head to unlock your phone rather than a biometric that people can use to unlock it against your will.

Currently based in NYC, but getting ready for a big launch in Minneapolis in response to the incumbent rideshare companies pulling out of the city in protest of increased rideshare regulation. Big opportunity to seize some marketshare without needing that much startup capital if your better financed competitors are removing themselves from that part of the market.

The offshoot running Android would hopefully just be called “Android”
The breakup this is referring to is splitting off the Android operating system from the rest of Google.
Not cool, reverse this
Sure people talking on the phone can be annoying, but that’s not the main thing people use their phones for - scrolling and texting are the ultimate tools for getting people to sit silently for long periods.
Airlines must be pretty crazy to think not letting people use their phones is going to decrease air rage
But it’s not the same - there’s a community of people doing the same thing, and with those contacts you’ll be using Signal.
The trouble is we end up having to install both when we could be only using Signal
Haha probably better to keep the tube closer to the surface of the Earth but otherwise yes.
