Stretching the expected whataboutism to before the US actually existed as a country is friggin' hilarious. Yes, oddly the the US does enforce the CCP's "Chinese companies automatically win" laws. How strange.

Posts like this are for people interested in using Rust. It's advertising expanded functionality and access to more use cases. There are enough of those people on this site that it makes it to the front page. If you do not fall into th

What is the proper way to dispose of a case? It's a hunk of plastic and maybe TPU or silicone. It goes in the trash.

Same. I only replace phones or tablets after they're totally broken. Even after updates stop coming, I'll switch to Lineage (and only buy devices that can be boot unlocked). I DIY repaired my last phone (after buying its replaceme

I wish it wasn't a local filesystem. Google Docs was superior (for me) in that my files were available on every device. To achieve that here would require setting up Dropbox or similar and dealing with edge cases. If this API was more

Yeah, that kind of omission is enough that no one should bother reading this "article". What a bunch of bullshit.

It's great that you have plentiful choices that suit your lifestyle. The anti-car crowd does not. The urban/biking lifestyle is illegal in most of the US. Where it is legal, cars are still over-accommodated with large urban boulev

I'm reading this as a difference between US and European style laws. It's my observation that Europe creates tighter legal frameworks with fewer loopholes. The US always seems to target specific bad behaviors and then acts surpris

If someone's using phrases like "wildly detached from reality" and transparent strawman arguments, they're not looking for honest discussion or to become more informed on the topic. They've calcified their opinion a

Because ridiculing world leaders is essential to liberty and free exercise of democracy? Especially POTUS, which is arguably the top of the heap. You don't need to agree, believe it has any merit, or anything like that. It's more

Oh wow, it started as a game concept! I was just thinking I wish they made a videogame with the physics and geopolitics (stellar politics?) from the show.

Same (New England, if US regions matter). Also, I haven't seen a new piece of classical metal jungle gym installed in a while. New climbing structures here are either geodesic rope contraptions or elaborate monkey bars. I think it&#x27

No disrespect but this is sounding a lot like a ca. 2000's gifted Linux user talking to someone who isn't that into computers. "That's easy [for me]! Simply do [thing requiring talent and skill] with your [open flexible

I can't see them loosening access to iMessage willingly. It's like the App Store: a moat to keep users confined to the Apple ecosystem. Allowing users choice and freedom is anathema to Apple's business model.

I need Thunderbolt! I don't hook up my Deck because my desk is built around a TB3 dock. That and USB-C at 4k 60hz isn't a given. Not that I'd run games at that resolution but it's sure nice for desktop mode.

Hasn't console gaming always outperformed PC gaming marketshare? I'm not sure people even really compare costs for videogames. If they did, they'd notice that everytime you buy a new Nintendo system, you have to re-purchase a

They don't shift under any load, as far as I'm aware. Maybe Rohloff's are different but IME, you need to stop pedaling entirely to safely shift without damaging anything.

There are but it requires the victim to have the time, energy, and of course, money to pursue it. It also needs to not be some "DMCA Lite" contractual mechanism like Youtube's shitty ContentID system. Only real bad faith DMCA

Oh I'm very much NOT joking! I was stopped at a red light on my bike when I was rear ended by an 83yo. He couldn't judge how far his car was from my bike. He was super angry that I insisted he had to stick around to exchange infor

That first one only appears in YT music. My regular YouTube still has my music playlists. Thanks though. Maybe some day they'll put in some effort.

YT Premium, definitely yes. However, YT Music is hot garbage. The UI is utter crap and the mixing of video and music is awful, especially playlists. Why the hell would I want my regular YT and music playlists mixed up together anyway? It ge

Why is this such a hard thing to get right? WebEx seemingly has 4 different mute keybinds, depending on the style of meeting you're in. It's worse than nothing because you randomly mash keys, making it look like you're not pa
