Not trolling. These are my opinions and I've posted relevant articles for most of them. If you feel like banning me then at least be clear that Hacker News continues to stifle valid criticism because it dislikes the view it presents.

But yet they clearly state they make money by charging artists to play their songs for listening. Music has a dirty history of pay to play(payola) and this is just an instance of passing a small pittance onto some desperate listeners.

As long as they continue to burn trash this is a joke on par with the ad campaigns for californians to conserve water and not waste food; actions which, do not target the actual major offenders amd are little more than feel good measures.

Yes as I already described amd you chose to ignore. Pick your choice or backup program that asks what drive and select your sd card. They are also available with wifi dongles.

Pure marketing bs. I've never had an unscathed CD-R fail. The cloud is just redundant servers and nothing more.

Yes I have and it's no less horrifying then thinking you can access your cloud server when you suddenly cannot. My point is for a small amount you could afford to buy microsd cards in bulk and backup every day. Or even CD-R/DVD-R

I agree but have yet to find one that went that way. More companies in the wild, as I alluded to, who feel that's what they should be doing with little to no understanding of how. Same for all of those brainteaser fizzbuzz-esque proble

Much like the Indian viper massacre or many similar pay for kills schemes. http://freakonomics.com/podcast/the-cobra-effect-a-new-freak... Tinfoil hat me wonders if it was a miniscule cost jobs program to curry favor w

Why would they? You already overpaid for their hardware and ecosystem because you believe in it. A smart consumer would, given the defined variable if not wanting to switch to android etc, buy a bunch of microsd and backup to them. They sel

Because nobody gets assigned a task and rushes to a white board with a non-collaborative audience. The WB wire framing etc is always a discussion amongst peers. Sit your prospects at computers spec'd like they would be using in their r

I've worked places where the dual monitor denial was based on jealousy from other job titles like manager, producer, sales, etc. Who didn't recognize it as a task enabling tool, but perceived it as a status item that they should r

Suprisingly good movie, I skipped it in theaters because the ad campaign was just heavy cgi Inception ripoff scenes and no real plot. Glad it came to Netflix, totally worth seeing.

So is this more or less money than the Red Cross siphons for alternative "needs"? http://www.npr.org/2016/06/16/482020436/senators-report-find... I was under the impression that operating costs

The only prisoners complaining about lack of food are the overweight or extremely muscular ones trying to bulk. Food is a commodity to a certain extent, so trying to acquire more is an obvious tactic. I've been in County Jail for an e

Maybe it's already been accounted for in the forced waste? My cartridges always say they're empty when there is clearly plenty usable ink left inside.

Their incentive of carpool lane cheating is one, as the average prius driver coasts along merrily with no regard to how ICE vehicles gear or drive. But that's just personal anecdotes again. The main issue with them is the ever present

I have lived on California my entire life and all we have managed to accomplish were feel good initiatives which made for great PR puff pieces and were quickly shuffled down the road. I remember the first electric car, hailed as a true step
