You can hire someone. I swear if it wouldn't be the tech industry nobody would ask if they can find someone to work for them for free. I'm not an expert at shipping either, not going to put out feelers for people to do it for free

A better approach is faking data, which Firefox is good at, because of how much work went into the Tor Browser. Just enable privacy.resistfingerprinting and use containers to browse. I also recommend privacy.resistfingerprinting.letterboxin

I started fuming about the cliches, but then I kept reading and there were many great points, but then I started fuming again because the author wrote a self-help book and they are the worst, but I still kind of want to read it.

It's crazy too because diverse companies tend to outperform non-diverse ones, it's just the opportunities to get there that are few and far between for under-represented groups, because of the structural and social barriers. Many

Smartphones and social media happened, they killed MSN Messenger. It was replaced by messaging apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger. Discord for gaming. Slack for work. You have to specialize these days to make it. Telegram for example

Isn't this Meta's biggest problem that it's Metaverse can't shine using graphics from the 21st century, because it needs to run on cheap VR headsets. You don't have a big market if a $1000 graphics card with 300W TD

You can't really argue with climate skeptics, anti-vaxxers or flat earthers, they are wired to doubt and mistrust science. Education and improved public messaging is the solution, and of course the removal of false and harmful content

More than 1 million American people died from COVID-19, half of them didn't have to, they did because assholes made a lot of money of their corpses, on ad-enabled or political platforms, promoting a hysteria against vaccination. My des

Sorry, I keep forgetting that a MacBook is considered a typical notebook here, I meant those $400 notebooks people buy for school and such. Obviously for 3 to 7 times as much money you get desktop-level performance, no argument there.

It's not really a question of free speech, it's a question of consequences. We don't want people to die just so you can have every side of the discourse represented equally. Not all sides are equally factual, and representati

Yeah, I'm really conservative when it comes to curing aging, because the whole thing is a lot more complicated than it looks like. You can't just eliminate it without dire consequences. It's a degradation, but it's one t

I'm on board with curing aging-related illnesses, just not aging itself, which is definitely not a disease. It's humanity's single most important pillar. Looking at it like a disease is completely misguided. Humanity wouldn&#

Even smartphones hit a point of diminishing returns after a while. A 5 years old Samsung Galaxy S8 would be still perfectly usable, and better than most cheap devices today, it's just unsupported, because go buy the new one. Fortunatel

Hardware improvement slowed down considerably in the last 10 years. A Core i7-3970X from 2012 is still comparable to a typical notebook processor, or the fastest smartphone chips today, including the one in the Meta Quest Pro that was just

I just use a good old fashioned bath tub. When it's full of hot water I chill until the water is cold, which takes approximately one hour. That's my time without devices.
