Note realistic measures. Has there ever been a case where the Federal government can fully restrict travel ? Does it even have that power over the citizenry?

I don’t get the point of this question. Obviously criminals? The expectation is that regulated avenues will serve to divert.

by Jcowell 5y ago
Yes but the question is that is there even a “stronger case” or is any case made weak due to the possibility of there being no case.

And I’m telling you that’s not the case since we have an actual case of Apple marketing one of their products as computer replacements and it was never the iPhone. The iPhone was always market as “An iPod, a phone, an internet mobile commun

What I’m curious about is where does the Windows App Store Fit? The only special stuff it has is the ability of update Games Pass Apps I think. But If it’s not on Game Pass , gamers aren’t going to the windows store, they’re going to Steam

I’m curious how would this work for products like apple? One would argue it’s only as good as it is because they control their platform fully.

Sure but that doesn’t mean that Apple markets the iPhone explicitly as one and it’s not like Apple is shy to not market one of their devices as such i.e the iPad. I think everyone is trying to fit these items in categories when they already

Exactly , without context I suspect this comment section to devolve into discussion about US copyright law which, while fun to read, should be steered towards Japanese Copyright law. The context being in the title would absolutely help that

Who manages departmental needs for majors that require equipment (STEM) and audits the expenses? Who hires and does a Background check of these auditors and admission officials and professors?

I for one am glad the system is not like this. I don’t not think our society as a whole would be better if the only thing we approved were studies of subjects with lucrative careers. While I do not understand Gender Studies , I appreciate t

I’m not taking about Availability of iOS App in the MacOS App Store that devs can opt in and out of. I’m talking explicitly about side loading iOS/iPadOS apps to MacOS. This was possible when M1 apps were released and then explicitly b

Exactly. Unless it’s run by a state actor it has to be commercialized (or subsidized which means money has to get in anyway) but by being run by a state actor is it evidently politicized.

Exactly , there is nothing wrong with Moderation. The problem comes there’s inconsistent enforcement and the inability to appeal and reform moderation rules in light of mistakes. Transparent moderation is probably the best.

I’ve seen the iPad marketed as such but never the iPhone.

Honestly the first two should be a federal thing. I just don’t understand how a federal election has 50 different ways of doing and qualifying things and not one way for a position that affects the whole country. If we were to pull up on a

You should find it hard to believe that every state does things the same way because they don’t. That’s the point.

by Jcowell 5y ago
I disagree if it was effectively ignored, a lot of things would be better and alot of things would be worse. While the lines between state and federal power has even diminished, it’s very much still there.

I get the human rights things but I don’t get the “pride-flag waving” comment since Apple has shown a strong support for LGBT and Pride in addition to their CEO also being a member of the LGBT community.

There’s a difference between able to be objective and being objective. Anyone who believe that’s American Courts, or rather, courts are objective is someone I hope has a really good lawyer if they ever go to court.
