The news itself is not boring - the world is wilder and crazier than ever. If the news broadcasts and publications are boring, it's their fault. Stay relevant or lose your readers.

> In the US, at least, air conditioning is somewhat common from what I know. I think you are misinformed. Some areas have it for sure, but in some very large population areas like the Pacific Northwest (say, 20M people), it is very rare.

SpaceX just needs a customer with a requirement for many launches. Doesn't have to be vertically integrated.

Gmail drafts are my #1 note taking app. Plain text, no formatting required but it's there if you want. Just hit Send to share a note. Not collaborative editing, but does solve all of the sync issues.

Are cars really driven by individuals who amount to "reckless disregard for the damage which would clearly be excessive in relation to the social and economic benefits anticipated"? I honestly don't even think it's close

That's a good argument in favor starting to enforce rules against genocide then, not a reason to stop progress elsewhere. I guess we may as well let the world burn at the hands of corporations, rather than bother to even say something

This is honestly an extremely rude and unnecessarily mean comment. I also strongly disagree with it. Large scale actions are needed. Small scale good-samaritan efforts do not move the needle on large issues that require international, inter

Really? Hiring someone who starts working a night shift, and then firing them because they look different during the day time is not a breach of good faith? Firing someone for shaving their beard is not a breach of good faith? I guess I

"At-will" employment does not sound like it would apply here. While searching for this, I found a quote "At-will does not apply if there has been a breach of good faith by the employer." This is clearly a breach of good

This sounds wildly illegal. I don't know the laws on different states, but do none of them require a reason for termination? Seems ridiculous. If they are using facial recognition are they also making systematic racist or other illegal

Yeah that line, along with others, is almost offensive. Microsoft tried really hard to stop the open web during the time they were building early Windows. They're trying to take credit for something that popular that they tried really

It's a fallacy to suggest that Canadians 'clearly don't like' something because it is not popular. A lack of exposure is one possible reason why a population may like something but it isn't (yet) popular.

It's not an issue with safari or the app. It's an issue with the website blocking you from seeing content that it advertises is on the web. And it is on the web for others, but not for you!

That phenomenon has nothing to do with the linked video, though. They are totally different. One is news, from news agencies, the other is corporate right-wing propaganda from the owner of the station.

Sorry to say, but that article is 6 years old. A lot has changed since then. Yes, you need broad spectrum, but the point of my post is that those labels are not always telling the truth. You do not always get broad spectrum sunscreen from a
