No but the possible outcomes are pretty much status quo and Israel occupies Gaza.

Yep. The problem is Musk. If the FSF launched a paid social media that required payment to cover sever costs and so it could be completely free of ads and tracking that would be one thing, but how much do you really trust Elon to do that?

In the US I’ve usually seen grocery stores have a self checkout where there are a bunch of self checkout machines and 1 staff member at that area to hand out bags, probably make sure you actually pay and don’t walk straight through the self

Banning discrimination based on ancestry, ethnicity, and religion should ban the type of thing caste discrimination is.

*some people in the south Asian community No one I know supports the caste system and as a person with Indian parents living in California I cheer this bill happening. People from South Asia aren’t a monolith, and my understanding is that c

Someone still needs to make new phones for the second hand market to exist so I think what fairphone is doing is positive

We should just normalize stay at home spouses, no need for it to specifically be moms. Also we need to bump wages enough for that to make sense for most people.

Lol I don’t think you understand just how much of a niche NI has for test equipment. There isn’t really another option for a lot of devices

If anything those are often considered valuable resources to be exploited or destroyed.

I still don’t understand why a laptop wouldn’t work for most of those use cases if you already are carrying one. Sure it’s a bit tedious to use a huge laptop on a plane but a 13” laptop will fit on your lap and in your bag nearly as easily

To be fair Microsoft has their own version of an iPad that converts into a laptop and it doesn’t work that well from what I heard.

The tricky thing is that there is a thin line between doing something to screw over consumers and doing it to make the product better. For example on earlier iPads and the current non pro/air/mini iPads, the screen glass can be re

Unfortunately Cellebrite probably isn’t violating the DMCA here.

If your goal is to filter out people pretending to be trans to play in the women’s bracket that would suffice Also at some point trans people look nearly identical to straight people so no one would even know the difference without scrutini

I’m not going to even really try to argue about this but that’s not really true, you could say trans people at stage X of a transition can play in the women’s bracket

If chess didn’t have a women’s league nearly all top level chess would be men so a woman’s league is a way to encourage more women to play chess. It’s the same premise as an all female gaming server or gaming tournament The categories aren’

That’s far too late, that’s like driving into a lake and choosing not to swerve until the last second

America has more developed systems so there’s less need for innovation. If you think the US is bad Japan still uses fax machines in common usage

Some parts of Tijuana are similar to some parts of San Diego but for the most part no A huge portion of socal is Hispanic but the culture overall is more American than Mexican IMO

Mexico is culturally completely different than the US and definitely counts as another country lol. Canada mostly doesn’t except for a few regional chains and such but Mexico is very much not diet California in any way

That may be true for software locked range but that’s not true for software locked heated seats or other similar features

But it also tells you everything on the page without needing to click It’s basically the “does this replace the original content” doctrine of fair use

They still track things like videos you liked and comment on if watch history is off and used to use that for recommendations

The danger is that when you microwave something you aren’t burning it with light, you are heating the water content of it.

Search engines have a big difference which is that they usually direct you to the original website.

Copyright law doesn’t stop applying because your website is accessible over the internet. I think generative AI is cool but training an AI to do the thing you do using your words is pretty clearly not allowed under current copyright law, an

Sure but they shouldn’t make 1 car and software lock half the features, sure economically it works out but practically it’s wasteful to the consumer. FSD is one thing if you have a software product not in the base car you are selling for a
