I ran some basic calculations:

I assumed that the child workers are making minimum wage, the adult workers are making $10 per hour (pay seems to be between $9.27-11.05 per hour), each shift has three people (two of which are child workers), and this is occurring during the summer when school is out.

Using this I figured that if the store was run by 3 adults, each working 12 hour shifts (4 hours of OT), then paying the employees would cost $960 per day per franchise [2(3((8x10)+(4x20))) = 960]. For a store that employs 2 children and one adult per shift and doesn’t pay OT for the children the savings per day is about $292 per location [2(160) + 4(12x7.25) = 668, 960 - 668 = 292]. If they did pay OT to the children then the difference would be $176 [2(160) + ((8x7.25)+4(14.50)) = 784, 960 - 784 = 176]. So if we take these savings and multiply them across the 12 locations and then multiply that daily savings across the entire franchise by the amount of weeks off in the summer ≈ 11 then you get a total franchise savings of either $38,544 [292x12x11] without OT) or $23,232 [176x12x11] (with OT). All it takes is for them to do this for two summers and the fine becomes irrelevant. Not to mention that this doesn’t even count child labor usage during off school times.

It really depends on that games you play and what price range you’re looking at. In general it is around the same performance as a 3060. However, the intel cards have pretty good value at the low end. When it comes to cost per FPS, the A750 is pretty competitive at $200. Compared to a 4060 (which is a horribly priced card at $300), the A750 performs 16% less on average (according to LTT), yet costs 33% less. Also, the A380 is also one of the cheapest ways to get hardware AV1 encoding in your system.

Report the individual reviews by long pressing on them and report the app to apple by tapping "report a problem" at the bottom of the app description page. If enough people do this maybe apple will take action. Not sure what the steps are on Android but I'm sure they're similar.

Almost all of my searches are now delegated to ChatGPT using either the browsing plugin or a third party browsing plugin (since the OpenAI browsing sometimes either doesn’t work or uses only one source). Both can give me the sources used so I can verify its answers. I get better results much quicker than using a search engine.

Besides that I use a combo of DuckDuckGo, Google and bing to do regular searches. Usually I pick one based off what I’m looking for.

Out of the available image generators, Stable Diffusion is the best but be prepared to mess around with it to get the best results. If you have an iPhone or Mac, Draw Things is a great way to get started. If you want to dive head first into stable diffusion and have good hardware with lots of VRAM then try Automatic1111 as others have suggested.
