If we added a carbon tax to the sale of gas (ideally paid depending on how efficient your car is, but that's a pipe dream), then we wouldn't have to consider the reduced amount of cars on the road because Amazon would save that mu

I have a smart TV that has some kind of integration with Roku, and never had any issues with ads, bad UI, etc. It also has a tangibly better UI than other TVs I've used, with features such as showing on the start-up screen what's

That's nice, but we do know that burning fossil fuels kills a huge number of people [0]. Moving away from fossil fuels will require some form of nuclear power. Much of Europe has successfully transitioned most of their power to nuclear

The other day I saw a truck carrying a blade of a wind turbine. It was gigantic, looked around half the length of a city block. Driving with one of those must be nearly impossible, I can't imagine how you would make a turn

Could it contain a charge or instability that destroys the useful innovations when it strikes the target, to prevent that? Even regular bullets look deformed when they hit something, it seems like if you want to slow down enemy research you

The commenter was probably referring to the actions taken by LaLiga, not the bars illegally streaming.

They seem to be spending a lot of money on Stadia, but they spent big on advertising Allo too. I may be one of the only people on Earth who miss Allo. I started using it with one of my friends when our SMSs kept dropping and we both got add

I don't understand this. Lets say I have a 15gb drive limit and 10gb of photos. After this change, will I have 10GB of photos in Google Photos and 10GB of photos in Google Drive, putting me at 20GB total? Or do the duplicated photos no

The iPhone app probably communicates to some servers over an API of some kind - there's no reason someone malicious couldn't pretend to be an iphone and communicate over the same API

Reducing supply will remove money from the economy, although less than the amount of money that was taken (the same happens whenever the government levies a tax).

We used to have both brands on my school's campus. I found the lime app on android to be very buggy (crashing, not letting me park my scooter, etc.), not sure if that has changed.

This is probably still in Google's best interest, since it greatly reduces the cost for OEMs to distribute updates (and updates are one area where Android severely lags behind iOS)

Does it have to be a real reimplementation? What if I made a terrible, low effort 3D modelling application that "officially supports" the same API that blender supports, but isn't GPL. Would non-GPL addons targeting that be l

No it wouldn't, for software to be "Free software" it must be GPL-or-other-copyleft-license licensed, which aside from being trivially impossible in a world without intellectual property laws, also has different outcomes than

The vast majority of people don't care about E2E encryption, and those that do still probably prefer RCS to SMS (typing indicators, messages send faster, images aren't compressed as all hell, group chats work, read receipts)
