Your car metaphor is completely off. It's not like Philips updated your lights to only light up in specific location. But cars are a good example, say your automatic shifter breaks. There are no real third party options, you've pr

Am I only one who doesn't see a problem here? Sure it would be nice if company X allowed me to use cheaper Chinese knock-offs with their product, but to me, they are well within their rights to decide: "hey, we don't want com

Majority of people aren't blocking ads and considering how low ad revenues are while the amount of ads blocked might seem high it doesn't really affect the revenue as much as advertisers like to suggest.

No reason to drive while drunk and people who are driving drunk will do so no matter how much public transportation there is just as people who wont drive won't drive even if there was no busses, trains or taxis.

In my opinnion the flaw in your question is that 'all' conspiracy theories are wacky or can be made wacky by the believers. At that point all you can do is weight the evidence for and against and come to your own conclusion, but a

Or if you have bigger software that requires testers. I work as software tester and my job is to come up with scenarios, find edge cases and write automated tests continuous integration. My main tools are Jenkins and Robot Framework.

Yeah, but I don't like the idea of having my connection be routed through random VPS providers. I'd have to get a server from a reputable datacenter where only I'd get physical access to the machines.

Why would they? Would people in general be "earning" more money from basic income than current benefits? I mean you can't increase rent past the point people are able to pay.

There would be at least service gaps if you changed MAC on the fly while connected to a network. At worst your packets would go to another device, unless your device announced it's MAC change, which would render the whole operation poi
