I hope they don't transition to a subscription model. I currently use VMware workstation at home and love it.

I see people complaining about Chrome and yet refuse to stop using. Stop complaining and start using another browser. If people would actually switch then these companies would actually have to react to user demands. Same things applies t

You read my mind. I personally think that the length of copyright and patents in the USA is too long. Length of time for copyright right now is life of the author plus 70. Which seems insane to me. Length of time for a patent is 20 years

I'm one of those individuals. My iPhone 12 Pro is working well. I can't see a reason to upgrade to the 15 Pro. My eyesight is going down the drain with age, so the only thing that might make me jump is getting a phone with a big

I think they will offer two options, advertising or advanced features. The advertising option speaks for itself. The will put ads in different parts of the O/S. Kiss goodbye to any privacy you thought you had. The features option will

To be fair, Google search is the default on Chrome and Chrome is king of the web browsers right now. Additionally, Google search is the default on IOS and I'm going out on a limb that the same applies for the majority of Android devic

Personally, I think Supreme courts justices shouldn't be receiving these kinds of gifts. Pay them more!! I don't care if Sotomayor or Alito is getting the gifts, they shouldn't take them. If you have rules for receiving gif

You are correct, but I wonder if any new hardware is going to be able to mimic the old completely.

I've never seen Ads in the System settings or any other system level area. Please point me to the screen that has the Ads. Of course, you are going to see Ads in an app store.

Why do you want crypto regulated? I thought the goal of crypto is to free you from regulation and government control. If crypto is regulated, your crypto can be seized, frozen, held, and so on.. Why regulate it?

I did the same thing with Ubuntu. I used it roughly for a year before getting tired of having to find workarounds for things like a webcam. I moved over to a Mac mini and life has been good. I still think the future is Linux. I see Micro

Depends on the expense. For example with Social Security, part of the problem we have now is that there are less people paying into the program then in the past. I only see two options, increase taxes or push back retirement.

If I'm not wrong, the issue is with funding government programs. Most government programs are funded by taxes and if the populations is dropping then naturally the tax base is shrinking.

I personally don't mind being in the office a couple of days a week. As many distractions people complain about being in the office, I think people have the same at home. I can't agree with you more regarding the commute. It rea

At this point, crypto is useless. Are people making money trading it? Yes. Can regular people do anything with it? No. With as much money that has been poured into crypto related businesses, I still can't easily send or transact busine

I can't speak for a company like Twitter, but I suspect that many individuals in tech at other companies don't have it so easy. If you think, CEOs around the USA are going to look at what Elon has done and fire half their tech sta

Is there a perfect O/S? I see a lot of complaints about Linux, Windows, and OSX. I personally use Mac OSX at home and Windows at work. I find both have there own set of issues. For example, I find the Finder app in OSX to be a joke

If tasks is their big accomplishment they are screwed. How about allowing you to change the default font on a note or a task? I've been using Evernote for a while now, and I just don't get the pace of their development. Their ch

Personally, I think the future is in messenger apps. Why login to Instagram or Facebook to see updates when you can have a family/friends group in Whatsapp/Telegram/Signal (pick your poison).

Content moderation is a balancing act. Companies are going to make mistakes and have to take corrective action. Do you believe that zero content moderation is good?

The problem is finding the right balance between free speech and censorship. I look forward to see how cases that go to the Supreme Court are going to be handled. I personally believe that a private business like Facebook has the right to

I'd take the United States versus China any day of the week. People keep making China out like they some kind of benevolent dictator. Keep in mind that all the shit talking everyone does on Hacker News and other sites is a no go in Ch

LOL - They don't have to be licensed specifically on a Tesla. They can show up in a Toyota Tercel from 1999 and take their test.

I think you are being dismissive of the claim because who would think that "autopilot" doesn't mean everything is done for you. Comparing a pilot to a regular car driver is just completely off point. You are basically throwi

The problem with Bitcoin is that it is a pain to transact any business with it.

I agree that Intel is in trouble on many front, but I don't see the x86 instruction set going away anytime soon. The desktop and server world is basically running on x86 at this time.

It is easier for me to call my bank and initiate a wire transfer than it is to transfer money via USDC. I think the assumption a lot of people in crypto make is that everyone has a crypto account/wallet setup.

I personally think that the FED is doing the best they can right now. Did they keep interest rate low for too long? Yes. But who could have envisioned a pandemic and then the supply/demand shock after it.
