The business model of companies like this is preying on people that don't pay on time. How are you defending such a scummy practice? It's preying on poor people that don't know better. I've seen family and friends get fu

Google can't win? Their idea of removing third party cookies was on the condition everybody would accept FLoC, so Google still makes money while everybody else doesn't. Yes, it's an antitrust concern.

Most people have not used another OS to make a comparison. Windows being kinda crap is why most people kinda hate computers.

Giant phones are great if it's your only computing device. I have a desktop, tablet and laptop, and I love my iPhone mini, since I use it only for phone calls and sending messages. I don't need 6 inch screens for that, even as a b

Neumorphism is interesting, but as far away from Windows 95 style as can be. It's tactile, yes, but low density, low contrast, borders are non existent, colours are used to create intense gradient background palettes, instead of using

If you like the Windows 98 era of UI design, I recommend you having a look at the GUI for the UNIX-like embedded operating system QNX. The care, tactility and readability of that interface is in my opinion unparalleled, and hidden behind a

Ah, if only it were so easy to cure depression and general anxiety. Also, consider the 3rd step to take months if not years, unless you want to go the medication route and just remove the symptoms altogether. I've been in talk therapy

Using static file formats for configuration is wishful thinking for projects that are perfectly specified on day 1 and whose requirements never, ever change. I'd rather choose a bad idea than having to reimplement a Turing-complete pro

Since finding it pretty much means being able to see it, would we ever be able to find a tiny black hole? I would expect its size to be sub-kilometer and if it's at its aphelion to be pretty much invisible.

Can't go wrong with Vanguard index funds. But educate yourself first. Knowing about the stock market and how it works earns you more dividends than actual stocks. Disclaimer: not affiliated, but I hold Vanguard index funds.
