Dang, that kills my use case since I can only install software on my PC from my org’s internal App Store. Too bad Apple still requires this and it can’t be just the Edge extension.

Will this work on only Mac, or can I install the extension on my work laptop Edge browser too? That would be essential for me to be able to use it cross platform.

My parents don’t care about CarPlay at all. It’s in their GMC truck but they have no interest in using it, and get confused when it pops up. That being said, they also will absolutely not subscribe to whatever service GM tries to launch in its place. I guess just pointing out that there are some people who don’t see the point, but they also wouldn’t see the point of whatever GM launches.

Wireless CarPlay is out there now too. I just had a rental car that had it, and it was very neat! It would connect to my phone while still in my pocket, and if I was going for a short trip there was no reason to even pull my phone out. And then if I was going for a longer trip and wanted to charge my phone I could pull it out and plug into USB, and it didn’t interrupt the CarPlay at all. Very cool.

How will the next one deal with trying to court Trump’s base while also not pissing off Trump’s base? Desantis was trying to get to the right of Trump on a number of issues but still refused to take any real shots, except at his own feet.

Right on, thanks for the info! I consider this a moment of great success for young Lemmy- on r/ regardless of the topic there always seemed to be someone with experience who would show up and share some of their knowledge. And this feels like the same thing here in a fiber cable laying thread. Cheers!

Wow ok the fiber line that runs into my house is way more shielded and bulked up than that little blue one, so my estimate was wayyyy off. So yeah hundreds of strands could fit in there. How often do they put a switch in neighborhoods? Maybe less often than I thought!

How many fiber cables do they put in each one of those ducts? There’s 15 ducts and let’s say 5 cables each, 75 fiber lines is a ton of bandwidth!! Lots of room for expansion there.
