Question is, do I downvote the crappy product because I hate it, or do I upvote it so other people can learn about it and hate it with me?

This is basically the originally pricing, adjusted for inflation + Trump’s 20% Chinese manufacturing tariff.

My hot take is that, if you’re not sailing the high seas, HBO (or whatever it’s called this hour) and Apple have the best catalogs of new stuff.

Jesus@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Judge dismisses Samsung’s smart ring lawsuit against OuraEnglish172·20 days agoIn its suit, Samsung alleged that Oura had a history of filing patent suits against competitors like Ultrahuman, RingConn, and Circular for “features common to virtually all smart rings,” such as sensors, batteries, and common health metrics.
The problem isn’t the features, it’s that Samsung is copying the very concept of a smart ring. Oura was the first company to make and patent biometric smart rings. So, yeah, if you make a biometric smart ring without paying them, you’re getting sued. That’s how patents work.
For the past 30 years, Samsung’s consumer product development strategy has been 75% “copy the competitors, then pay lawyers to fight it out.”

They will ask for your help with something on their workstation, and it would be faster for you to drive with them watching over your shoulder, but this cryptic thing is their keyboard.
Instead, you will be forced to sit behind them like Patrick Swayze guiding Demi Moore at a throwing wheel. You will eventually take your shirt off, launch Unchained Melody in Spotify, then slowly guide them through a system setting panel.
You will notice how soft their hands feel. The hyper-ergonomic keyboard has allowed their fingers to move with minimal effort, allowing the skin to remain supple, smooth - almost unused.
You will ask yourself, “Is he right?” How could a keyboard be so aggressive and wrong, and yet, support something so gentile.
You try to deny the feeling. Your friends and family will mock you like your uncle Dvorak. Maybe you start with a trackball and see if being naughty feels right.
