Having roommates (aka sharing a home) when you leave your family home has been the norm forever. Roommates are not poverty

Buying an old beater car as your first car has been the norm forever. But that’s because young people still have no wealth, ie they are poor, not because they don’t want a shiny Audi.

One could argue that for many people, isolation is a form of poverty.

You could argue everything, but I’m pretty sure 99% of those sharing a flat are doing so because they can’t afford a flat for themselves, not because they enjoy the company.

Grandfather talks about classical Windows software. On the Play Store this app says "Contains ads - In-app purchases".

Ah, as a cheap bastard, I hate how software was pay once back then, and for this one I'm just going to ask you what's the monthly subscription price?

How exactly should they be terminated? 150 1:1 meetings?

I don't understand. For you to see the message, you have to click on the link. Your clicking on the link must mean that the link is active, since it is getting clicks. So why is the link being deactivated for being inactive?

> As a user I'd expect the device to wake up and still have the same IP address via a continuation of the lease.

Most users don't know what IP addresses even are, let alone care what theirs is. I don't think Apple is (or should be) optimizing for you.

Okay, then… As a user I’d expect the device not to waste any time connecting to my wireless network and getting a dhcp lease, instead being already connected when I open the lid.
