In my experience they’ll come off on any machine if slid around enough on a slightly rough surface.

Ik weet er alles van. Totale burnout als kind hierdoor. Boreout moet ik eigenlijk zeggen, iedere dag doodmoe achter het herhaling- en verveelbankje zitten deed mij geen goed. Geen uitdaging, dag in en uit, 1x per 2 weken buitenspelen. En de leraren maar zeuren dat we niet gemotiveerd waren.

It helps most are built for left lanes. I remember something about Nissan not being able to make them with the wheel on the left. You’d think just mirroring wouldn’t be a big deal but I think they just didn’t want to. Probably not enough revenue to be made.

When I was just entering adulthood, just seeing *any* Skyline was starting to feel like a unicorn. Because of Gran Turismo 1 and 2 of course, lol. But that is until I went on vacation to Japan and it was one of the first cars I saw!

I can’t imagine using Microsoft in any critical situation. And I’ve worked in a Microsoft infested hospital proving my point.

Really Though, How Much Revenue Is There In AI? I estimate $65 Billion In 2025
So, this is hard to estimate now that we can no longer rely on annualized revenues, but what we do know is that OpenAI has leaked it had $13.1 billion in 2025, and Anthropic has made $5 billion in all time revenue, which I would bet means it made $3.5 billion or less in 2025 (though we can’t say for sure). 

The following are toy model guesses, and while I believe they’re actually too generous, I must be clear they’re estimates. 

I estimate Cursor has made no more than $500 million in the last year, Perplexity no more than $300 million, and Harvey no more than $150 million. I estimate that Lovable, which crossed $400 million annualized revenue in February 2026, made no more than $200 million based on its leaked revenues and ARR in 2025. 

I estimate Cohere, who topped out at $240 million ARR in 2025, at around $150 million. I estimate Cognition, which raised $400 million in September 2025 (and had $400 million ARR at the time, up from, somehow, $73 million in June 2025?), made no more than $200 million in 2025. ElevenLabs crossed $330 million ARR sometime in 2025, and it took them 5 months to get there from $200 million ARR, which is why I estimate it made no more than $200 million. I’m going to estimate Replit ($150m ARR in September 2025) made about $125 million in 2025, and I estimate Suno, which hit $300 million ARR revenue in February 2026 after hitting $200 million ARR in November 2025, hit about $150 million.

All in all, that puts the largest AI startups at an unremarkable $1.975 billion in revenue in 2025, or $18.575 billion in revenue if you include (and believe) OpenAI and Anthropic’s revenues.

CoreWeave had $5.15 billion in revenue in 2025 (and lost $1.2 billion), Nebius had $228 million (and lost $122.9 million), and Iren had about $184 million in revenue (and lost $155.4 million) in its last quarter, which annualized comes out to about $736 million, so I’m going to use tha…

AI isn't a real industry. Every product is subsidized, and even with subsidized rates, the majority of AI startups struggle to gain any kind of product-market fit. None of them have a path to profitability of any kind.

They are available in the photos app, leaving me to wonder if it was never there in the first place and I’m making a mystery out of something that never existed. Or remembering it from Android. The human mind is a Mandela effect factory. Curious what the answer is! Anyone still on iOS 25 or lower?

Ja, maar dat zijn ‘smaakjes’ of effecten of hoe heb het wil noemen. Normaal heb je een lijst met technische instellen en die lijken te zijn verdwenen met de glass vormgeving. Ik kan het mij gewoon niet voorstellen dus ik ga nog even zoeken!

*saturation instead if the 1st ‘exposure’.

Where the hell did all the “pro” settings go in the camera app on iOS26? Exposure, white balance and such. #dta All I can find is exposure.

I had to update, that was the issue. Might be good to note for future users complaining. 😁

Ik mis je zo erg, lieve mooie stoere leuke donzige Gizmo. 10 jaar lang was je mijn vriendje en keek ik iedere dag uit om thuis te komen bij jou. Toen ik ziek was kwam je steeds op mij liggen, spinnen tot baasje weer beter was. En dat is je gelukt. Kon ik jou maar redden. 💔

It’s far from perfect but I disagree. If search operators still worked on Google I never had to switch in the first place. At least duck doesn’t ignore those (most of the time, which is my biggest complaint about duck, it should NEVER ignore operators!)

Or, just stop using Google. Did so in 2019 when it refused to show any results for a simple song text that should’ve had billions of results because of how generic it was. Think “I love you” level of generic. 0 results. Duckduckgo I went and never came back.

A sad caturday for us. Yesterday I lost my dear friend Gizmo. He had a tumor they couldn’t do anything about. I miss you so much my beautiful little house lion 😭💔 I will never forget you.
