Reading your answers you seem unhinged. Calm down mate. > Of course in the unicorn land of Linux cultists it "works" too, but then you open any Linux related forum and multiple threads about something not working anymore are po

People run Windows because it comes installed in their machines. > Windows is rock stable and doesn't break randomly after every upgrade (sans occasional conflicts with third-party software here and there affecting ~0.05% of people)

It won't happen. It's too easy to forget that even our beloved weekends were only achieved after bloodshed. The people in power successfully managed to sell us the belief that we can achieve change by sitting on our asses and yell

Wow, I guess some people are such die hard fans that they try to mention "aliens" instead of giving a semblance of an argument. Keep your ad ridden Windows mate, you clearly deserve it. Not worth my time to answer this low level o

You literally have to reinstall windows because of how broken it got, and that's somehow okay? The amount of BSOD I've seen and unfixable issues after spending hours googling and browsing windows shitty support sites are just the

They aren't talking about EULAs. It's how they give out their answers.

Here in Brazil Apple is very much all about showing off how rich you are. Especially since we have some of the most expensive Apple products in the world. Maybe not as true in the US, but reading about the green bubble debacle, it's al

I have to disagree. I can't think of a single instance of learning a subject that mattered where I would describe as "having fun". Let alone too much fun. Only on games which are fun themselves I could describe them as a fun

That's exactly what he suggests doing. Taking the time, pausing, trying it out, etc. What you're describing is how he believes videos should be produced/watched, and not a 10 minute "5 tips for drawing like a master&quot

Which he explicitly says it can be done. It simply should not be the main focus, which is what edutainment is.

When they hire as part of the push for that 30% chance, are they telling them that they have a 70% chance of being laid-off if the bet doesn't pay out? If it's "just a bet" and not mismanagement, then we should tell peop

What a naive way of looking at things. Sure, everyone that's fat is lazy! There cannot be any other explanations, right? You seemingly forget not everyone is as privileged as you are. Clearly by your take, you can afford to eat healthy

Late stage capitalism is what got us in this place. Add sugar to everything, advertise anything and everything to kids so they are hooked up early, make healthy food expensive so the poor have no choice but to eat unhealthy and so on. Profi

Why? What is the harm in letting people live their lives producing art without a freaking OKR tracking their output? I always find it fascinating how people assume that if you're not slaving away making someone else richer, it's a

Maybe economies started out to fulfill customers needs, but now they exist to generate profits. It's a very different incentive.

That's a lot of assumptions you're making there. We don't know if these people were playing the lottery/slots before? I doesn't matter. They didn't go bankrupt before. Sports betting is way too easy to use and

I have to disagree. Scale does matter. If murder was legal we'd have a lot more of it. We still have them despite it being a crime, but nobody would ever suggest making it legal because some people do it anyway.

> LLMs radically accelerate the learning process. Can't agree with that. IME and from what I've read in many places, it's basically only useful if you already know the subject. If you don't, you have no idea if what i

IMO anti-cheats at this point are more of a PR tool than actual cheat prevention systems. Look at Vanguard: they marketed Valorant specifically focused on the anti-cheat to draw players away from CS:GO where many in the community think chea

Can you expand on the disagree? I've watched professional games in SC, CS and DOTA for decades and I definitely agree that pros are indistinguishable from a good cheater (not a rage hacker). One of the issues around this is cheating wi

So what? If only companies could have slaves again to make them more competitive! I'm absolutely fine if companies "become less competitive" because they can't exploit their employees as much. Following this train though

I pretty much agree with everything you said, but I still feel like your take is a bit too absolutist. If you're not afraid of losing your job, all of these are 100% accurate. But if you are, some of this advice can get you fired. In m

Once again the lack of worker rights come into play here. Companies should never be able to change an employee's working hours like that. I'm guessing in the US they can, because they have almost no worker's rights. Where I l

I see your point now. Yeah, I agree. But the only question that really matters in the end is: is that profitable? If we really cared about safety many people would not be allowed to drive in the first place. Tests would be much more strict

I agree with you, but this will never happen. You think anyone would like to be responsible for bankrupting GM? It's bad PR. All people will talk about is how many jobs will be lost. Here in Brazil we have a somewhat similar problem wh

What's the alternative? Let them keep breaking laws because they're too big to fail? That's what makes me so angry with this stupid economic model. Once these monopolies/oligopolies are inevitably formed (after all, comp

That scenario is completely missing the point. Bob has to drive because of the lack of good public transportation and the fact that he can't afford a house near his work. Not to mention if he can't afford a car with insurance it&#

The reason we assume these are the only two options is the real culprit here, but we rather stick to a broken system we know instead of trying something different.
