"We have reached our limit," Galhotra said. "We have actually stretched ourselves to get to this point. We're still working to get this done. We're open to moving some money around within the deal that might fit the union's needs better. But broadly speaking, as to the overall cost, we're there already."

Bullshit. You can fucking afford everything they're demanding. Solidarity with the workers!

Nope! And yet they try to sell it as an open system lmao

Apple: only implements a proprietary graphics API

Also Apple: Why does no one make games for my platform??

Still disappointing that it isn't using a proper IR illuminator. Apple's Face ID is still better, and the DyNaMiC iSlAnD doesn't take up that much space. I've adjusted to having a fingerprint sensor on my Pixel 6 Pro, but the thing is so much slower.

They really don't. It's not like after 10 years your battery just explodes and stops working. They lose a little bit of capacity and work just fine.

I have a 5 year old EV with barely any battery degredation. That I bought used!

Honestly such a blessing bc reading y'all's takes has kept me from raging at everyone else online. 😂

He insists on making me more and more embarrassed of how hard I worked my ass off for him, damn.

The Time Article they're referencing is worth a read. Excellent reporting, and there's no excuses for Apple and Foxconn here.

[A trans person] joined the Discord server and made a big deal out of their pronouns [..] because they put their pronouns in their nickname and made a big deal out of them because people were referring to them as “he” [misgendering them], which, on the Internet, let’s be real, is the default.

Damn I didn't know women didn't exist on the internet! Also "making a big deal out of ones pronouns" is almost never the case, it's always just a normal request for the respect of addressing someone properly.

Nope, just the CEO of the company that has regularly overridden the decisions of his engineers, driving anyone with any actual experience away.

Autonomous vehicles built by hundreds of first-year software engineering graduates seems like a good idea though.

Why did they feel the need to to publish his daughter's deadname? It's truly not relevant or needed at all.

Good, hope they win. I was supposed to have a procedure at Vanderbilt and this whole thing has really made me second guess how much I trust them, despite not living in Tennessee.
