    I never understood the green bubble hate. I read texts for information not for their color.

      Watch the video again – it isn’t green-hate, it’s Android-hate.

      It breaks the uniformity of the standard blue and white theme. It’s silly but I can kind of understand it, humans like patterns and themes, when that gets randomly switched up it feels wrong. And also the fact that without RCS, receiving videos and audio messages from android phones is known to be awful quality, so I’m sure that has a lot to do with the disdain towards the green bubbles.

      It’s not about the color green, the pics and videos are low quality because SMS compresses the media. That’s why people have been asking for RCS support on Apple devices.

      ​@@mattiej2311it’s like an abusive relationship where their experience is degraded but they don’t know it because their experience is degraded even more when they talk outside their ecosystem.

    The most American problem of them all. I suspect most of the world is using 3rd party apps for messaging anyway, which as a consequence, preserves “homogeneity”

      Yea, everyone else uses WhatsApp/telegram. It’s only in the U.S. that this is even an ‘issue’.

    I wish they didn’t keep it green though, people still have the instinct of getting annoyed with me because it’s green

    Really… this is considered bullying. And if an iPhone users says something says more about them. Can we please quit inventing problems.

    It’s not their fault they can’t use iMessage, it’s also not apple’s fault, it’s nobody’s fault really, just use WhatsApp or any similar app like any normal country in the world. Americans can be so weird man…

    It’s neither android’s problem nor apple’s. Each company decides what features they are going to offer and how they will differentiate themselves from any other company. It’s our job not to be assholes and not to judge others from their bubble color.

The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity. Before those challenges even come into play, though, there’s a more basic problem: A lot of the projects being announced may never get built in the first place. With billions of dollars in AI infrastructure investment at stake, separating realistic projects from speculative ones is becoming increasingly important.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Rebecca Bellan and Tim De Chant are joined by Brent Nelson, senior managing director of markets and strategy at Ascend Analytics, to separate the data center projects that are likely to get built from the ones that may never get off the ground.

It’s been a big month so far for American politics and the tech industry. Democrats deliver a sweeping win across the country, calling continued AI development into question.
