The answer, of course, is that it doesn't "have to" be cast that way, but this is an article on an accessibility site. So it's about accessibility.

I love how when there's no USB-C on the iPhone, it's a world-historical tragedy. But somehow having FOUR USB-C ports (which, yes, also support Thunderbolt, but are also fully-legit USB-C ports) on the Mac means they are now "

Those districts are very likely to have housing markets that include precious few "shitty apartments" and zoning that makes it impossible to build more of them. That's a fundamental fact of modern America.

Except that this is from 2019, and we just had a massive social experiment in which a pandemic caused us to give out a lot of money to a lot of struggling people, and what we discovered was that it really helped out those people and gave a

Setting aside whether you should have been banned, what you did was incredibly stupid. What made you think that you should go around telling Black people what they "should" call themselves? That's not your business or your jo

Digital currencies solve exactly zero parts of this issue. Nor are they magically "non-inflationary"; that's just hilarious.

This isn't really about any supposedly "required" narrative; that's just noise on your part. The fact is that this article is deeply flawed from the very beginning. The media reports he cites are about more frequent and

The SE/30 is basically like this, but faster, 32-bit bus, and supports Ethernet. So same charm, but even more useful.

Just for fun: these "people in his [Biden's] administration" you speak of...who chose those people? I'm a little confused. Perhaps you can clear this point up. Just be honest: you have 937 axes to grind and you are despe

He's being pushed? He promised to do this himself during the campaign. There is no credible evidence of any kind that he did this because he was "being pushed". In any case, it's the right move, and he did the right thin

Except your argument doesn't hold water. Biden isn't "in trouble"; his approval rating has actually been steadily rising of late, and this policy change reportedly took some time to work on. You also really need to do so

Not really true. This action amounts to Biden doing something about state-level charges as well. He explicitly encouraged states to follow suit. He also announced that he's reviewing the absurd Schedule 1 designation for marijuana, whi

Look, you already know why it wasn't done 10 years ago, or 5, or 25, or 50, etc. You're just pretending not to know. Please don't be tiresome.

Sounds like a classic No True Scotsman fallacy to me. "Any crypto that is actually usable by normal people isn't real crypto and any problems with that stuff doesn't count!"

I certainly was not claiming that Google has good support. I'm aware of basic reality. ;) But your response does not address my point at all.

I'm especially entertained by this notion that making a company government-owned will magically ensure "proper customer support". That might be the funniest thing I've read in weeks, actually.

If they have that interest, why did they just release a detailed 72-page report in which they make clear that there have actually been many offenders? Your argument doesn't hold much water.

Which prices is Apple raising? Have you gone and reviewed how much Apple's products cost in the 80s and 90s? You might want to do that, quickly, before the laughter gets so loud that you are deafened.

No on both counts. No, Lightning was not "simply an update" of the 30-pin connector; it was a creation of something entirely new, from scratch. And no, you don't have any idea about the motivations (or lack thereof) about why

Yet I can cite hundreds of cases of cheating in all the major sports in which, yes, there was a suspension or other penalty, but the players or people involved were then allowed to participate again. The examples you cited are very extreme,

Yet earlier in this thread, you were incredulous about even the possibility that a chess game state could be entered into software or communicated during play. Which is clearly a ludicrously blind statement. So pardon us if it's hard t
