Congratulations on mentioning a bunch of features that were baseline two decades ago.

Every Garmin has a full suite of health and exercise tracking. Smart functionality like tap to pay, messaging, app API integrations for using your watch and not your phone, integration with Garmin’s entire line of outdoor smart equipment and sport-specific tools.

They’re not comprable. If you just want a Pebble 2.0 and don’t take care of your body, go with that. If you actually live a life, Garmin’s a clearly superior choice.

2 weeks between charge

Most Garmin watches do this and they offer a modern featureset.

Several dictionary words in series cannot be “easily brute forced.”

You’re out of you’re depth and saying stupid things.

Not at all. It will lead to easier to type passwords, likely. But that doesn’t mean shorter. This could easily be filled with passwords that are four words long with special characters interspersed.

Term limits for legislative bodies is, and always has been, a dumb idea.

You need a constitutional amendment to impose age limits on offices.

This is the electorate’s fault; the electorate needs to fix it.

Why is holding on to this job important if everything about it sucks?

Seems like this comment could be asked of basically any post on Lemmy that even tangentially references politics, economics, or tech.

people from the North don’t understand how big mosquitoes can get in the swamp

I take it you’ve never seen a backwoods mosquito from the Boundary Waters or, god help me, Alaska.

decent NUCs are much pricier than old discarded hardware

This can be true for some, but for a lot of labbers the increased energy cost of enterprise hardware will exceed the cost difference of the NUC over the expected life of the equipment. That doesn’t mean it’s an obvious choice to go the other way; it’s just something you should consider.

Tiny little landmass filled to the brim with vainglorious people.

All the downsides of Comancho with absolutely none of the redeming qualities.

Living there and also maps existing.

This is real 5’11" energy bud.

Second smallest continent, behind even Antarctica.

It’s tiny my dude.

Europe’s understanding of the geography outside its tiny landmass is utterly laughable.

Sure, but it’s an additional 70 miles. Not something that would go unnoticed.

Plenty of chemical syntheses are patented. Biological catalysts and precursors are patented every day. No one owns the rights to orbital calculations, because that would be like patenting the concept of a square root — it’s not novel or even complex within the field.

What data do you need to leave your bubble? Issue polling, favorability polling, revealed preference, actual vote share? Americans, by a wide margin, want. Less legal immigration and stricter enforcement of immigration law — including detention and deportation.

It’s the unfortunate reality.

One of my favorite movies of all time. The gun battle in the streets is an all-time great scene.

User base size dictates development resources. If you want Linux mobile to be daily driveable, you do need widespread adoption.

Look at the FUD getting voted to the top. This place is just as bad as Reddit.
