These fines are always at least 1 to 2 decimal points too small for their targets to even care about. Want to hurt them? Fine them 10% of their yearly revenue, that'll get their attention.

Meanwhile this morning I was wondering if I could drop a remote control LED light next to the solar sensor on the street light across the street with a drone and fool it at night into turning off so I can use my telescope without being blin

This really sucks, I was interested in getting one of these when they come back into stock for my country. Another notch in the "never use PayPal" belt.

I just built a new PC after like 8 years and had to buy a cheaper mobo in order to get access to more PCIe slots. I was baffled why there were so few on them and was wondering if I could even fit 2 video cards on the one I originally wanted

Because only a certain few folks have access to DALL-E 2. I haven't got the invite and every day the ideas I was going to run with are already being done by others. Sure you can still do it, but it's not the same as a frontier whe

I feel your pain. I setup my first set of display ads a few days ago, it went through learning for 4 days without spending a penny, but there were no errors. I found a support tab labeled with "BETA" and I just laughed. Wow, suppo

The pain and frustration from using a phone is enough to beat my laziness and actually make me just walk to a computer for most anything apart from mindless scrolling/consuming. Looking for food and need to use actual websites or order

I think that is probably a big part, but a bigger part is 90% of people in first world countries (who have money to pay and are valuable to advertisers) have never known how to use a computer (too complicated/scary) and now they all ha

It's so true, most apps on mobile are just crappy partial tools that you already have on a PC, but worse to use and with a subscription. It always feels like technology sucks nowadays and it's just getting worse. It is no longer m

I'm firmly in the "home computer generation" and it's becoming more frustrating than ever. It's frustrating that everything is going/has gone mobile, because mobile sucks. It doesn't matter what form facto

This article is meant to fool coders into believing they can just start their own mini-company and focus on what they like best, coding, to build recurring services for some imaginary audience they haven't found, vetted or understand y

A go-nowhere article with a lofty click-bait title aimed at promoting the site it sits on using survivorship bias examples to prove what he's promoting works. I guess that's one way to grow, but still. It's just called being

I opened a business account and had this happen instantly. It asked for my age, which as a company was 1, so I put that and it instabanned me for being underage. It also didn't help that the website signup didn't work well and las

Yep, for years now. Amazon used to feel amazing, now it's Scamazon and it's sadly better to buy the literal cheap garbage at Walmart than it is to waste the time researching the fake crap on Scamazon and still losing out. It'

Maybe, but only if you compare it to those things. I support tons of people on patreon and other platforms and never have I once thought about comparing it to my Netflix subscription, it's just totally different. Netflix and co are a u

Really glad to hear that you guys are safe and continuing to operate. I remembered you were in Ukraine and was wondering how that affected everything! I've still got you in the back of my mind for when I need some design!

This is pretty interesting! I've been thinking about a platform for unique swag for podcasters, streamers, youtubers, etc. as I think there's definitely an opportunity to engage with fans there, but I imagine it's pretty over

Is there any sort of app (android) I can download that will tell me what other apps are constantly tracking my location and reporting back when they are not open? I'd also love that for anything that's constantly listening to what

My wife got her phone number (randomly) many, many years ago that turned out to be the old number for "The Edge" radio station and got calls for years about people trying to request songs or answer trivia questions. Just some of t

I'm kind of confused as to why they don't have a demo showing all the fonts. I'm not just going to blindly pick from system fonts, I want to choose which I prefer first. Yeah I could look them all up, but just seems like they

I remember discovering this phenomenon in high school and my buddy dubbed it a metalgasm, when you feel the blood draining from your face, the goosebumps and all of those other feelings. A few years later I launched metalgasm.com (early 200

I've definitely felt like I've had to come up with clever ways of making sure my pages are the latest, especially after a user edits their page and expects to see it instantly updated. I've also had to remove thousands of pag

I have expensive Bose noise cancelling headphones and they are wired and I don't want to rebuy for a new phone. BT and wireless is usually nothing but trouble and crap quality in my experience, so I never would intend to buy wireless i

There is no shortage of people who have spent lots of money on good quality headphones that want to use them though, but that doesn't matter to companies like Google or Samsung or Apple because they don't make or sell those produc

I feel like I'll be stuck never being able to buy a new phone. Everyone is removing basic features like headphone jacks and sd card slots.
