There's now more product competitors now. Also is this a sign that parts shortages are easing?

Deaths are sad, if we consider that people can be brainwashed and it isn't entirely their fault, it's a tragedy.
That said, this is... Evolution in action. I don't just mean darwin awards dumb, but more specifically that technologies (social or physical) are actually a part of Evolution, not aside from it. That also means that dealing with misinformation is actually becoming a part of evolution, literally for survival. Or if not critical thinking, then what group you attach yourself to, aka what network you trust. Which in some ways, is actually not all that different from before modern technologies.
Rubicons especially
I suppose it might be a bit much to expect government accounts to go find a Lemmy instance to post this, so I'm copying this from Reddit. Yep.
For the first time in South Australia, tenants will have the right to own a pet under further rental reforms proposed by the Malinauskas Labor Government.
As part of the reforms to the Residential Tenancies Act, the Government will consult on a bill that includes a presumption that a tenant who applies to keep a pet in a rental property cannot have their request unreasonably refused, provided the tenant agrees to comply with any reasonable conditions imposed by the landlord.
For many of us, our pets are family and it is heartbreaking that some South Australians have been in a position where they have had to choose between having a roof over their head and giving up a beloved pet.
That’s why our Government is acting decisively to make housing more accessible for all South Australians including those with pets.
My Government is supporting tenants while balancing the interests of landlords.
We have already taken steps to ban rent bidding, raise the bond threshold – saving South Australian tenants $1.3 million in the first month alone – and get private rental assistance in the hands of more people.
And now we are ensuring people aren’t having to sacrifice their dearly loved pets to avoid being homeless.
Taking example numbers from the article, but not explicitly stated, it kind of sounds like 15 floors, about 60m tall, is the point in which density starts to sacrifice ecological concerns too much.
According to a 2015 study commissioned by the CTBUH, the whole life emissions of both energy use and materials for a 120m concrete and steel structure are nearly five times higher than those of its 60m equivalent.
That's still tall enough for many things, so I guess the rest should be handled by a bit more space use and better mass transit.
I guess the irony is then, Reddit is going to experience this exact problem as mods have fewer tools at their disposal.
Just go with the harsh moderation.
Meta has the capacity to make really evil products, let's not start the EEE treadmill.
I personally use the original amazfit bip. Cannot be newthough, I sourced mine from aliexpress, and even there they are ex-demo and stuff. Heart rate sensor isn't amazing but I don't know if that's maybe my hairy arm. The main reason I got it, can be used with gadget bridge, for best privacy
Edit: worth noting that I had to flash it with English firmware, which did mean I had to use the official app originally
