Whole new vistas open up to possible retaliation for piracy. Imagine how a bootlegged AI could have been set up to not just steal your info but manipulate you into ruining your life as revenge for bootlegging it...

Yes. HTML gives the structure and hierarchy (if done properly) which is also what then gives the accessibility. CSS can do lovely things that will help a blind user with a screenreader not one bit unless you're kludging in "hacks&

In most browsers this basic style is user configurable, but 99.9% never bother.

But, you can get all of these things from HTML. Especially visual hierarchy and accessibility. The cornerstone of accessibility on the web is: does it display legibly and is it navigable without any CSS? CSS is eye candy. It's aestheti

Yes, it does. At least to me.

Yes, and depending on preference, it's better. With a properly working trackpoint, you barely need to move your hand or fingers at all. Complete screen navigation from slight finger pressure. No swipes, no wrist movement, no carpal tun

You shouldn't pay more money for a top-shelf laptop, then need to do this.

By the time you have a giant 6" trackpad, then a touchscreen just absolutely makes more sense, but oh, yeah, right, Apple insists on being a decade+ behind the times on laptop hardware features while insisting they're better.

Maybe Steam will give us a line of gaming laptops with the same build quality...

IDK, the last Thinkpad I had, I used for a decade, then passed it on to a relative who used it for a few more years before something finally broke. Have also owned a Lenovo Yoga series laptop, and it's absolutely not in the same catego

Japan has no campgrounds with RV hookups? At such facilities, you can hook up and flush out your sewerage.

Antihistamines are for any kind of allergy. They don't care if it's from breathing in something, touching something, or eating something. Allergy is an allergy.

Diseases. The livestock thing is related to diseases. Are you carrying the new strain of swine flu inside your body?

Companies cannot be good guys or bad guys, because they are not guys. They are conglomerates that exist as a legal tool to make money. They are whatever makes money right now. That is all.

From the article you link: "Comcast told Ars that faster upload speeds will come to customer-owned modems "later next year" but did not provide a more specific timeline." So, no. Do not rent their modem/router crap.

You may be allergic to something on/in it, such as a pesticide or fertilizer perhaps? Especially if it all came from one processor. Did it come from a dispensary?

Almond oil is a nice alternative. If you can't find it, look for massage oil, which is usually almond oil re-labelled.

If you are lucky enough to have a local small bakery near you, then they might use paper bags (mine does), or you can take your own bag. If you only have supermarkets, you can buy things like baguettes, Italian loaves, and sourdough from th

I would like to share that plain original Windex will take permanent marker out of many upholstery fabrics (and some carpets) if applied with a scrub brush and plenty of elbow grease, followed by a washcloth. I would try it on the floors, t

Some tea companies have begun switching to plastic free teabags, so do your research and check your favorite brand.

Good grief, just trying to find products that are unscented is a nightmare. So many say "unscented" on the front, then have "parfum" or something in the ingredients.

Apparently in Europe and some other countries they don't do whole house water softeners?

Everyone I've ever known with water hard enough to be a bother just installs a whole-house water softener, so all the water inside the house is already softened. Seems inefficient to soften only the dishwasher when a whole house system

I had issues severe enough to visit a gastroenterologist, which turned out to be caused by a water filter that wasn't being changed. I stopped consuming water going through that filter, and all symptoms went away within a day or two. I

Yep, the Shakespeare text files I downloaded in the 1990s are still perfectly readable on basically any tech device, and have traveled across floppy discs, CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, hard drives, SSDs, flash drives, etc. They've been read on l

You could read to them, and have them also read to you. Or, you could do family book club, where each of you takes turns picking the thing you all read, then talk about it.

Also, Koreader runs on many brands of ereaders, so it may be worth exploring if you're interested. Kobo readers can read non-DRM epubs out of the box and can also run Koreader. Check out the MobileRead forums. Here's the one for K

Yes, but HTML 1.0 renders perfectly in any web browser in existence. That's the amazing part. Browsers are designed to fall back to render older versions of standards.
