I would say no. However, you can still buy a game on disk and play that. A big argument on the anti-apple side is that there's no way around the app store, which isn't true for most consoles. It will be soon though, with more cons

This is what I hate every time there's a big discussion about subsidies for electric cars and how they shouldn't exist if they can't be sold without subsidies. There are so many things we use every day that get (or got) massi

I explicitly stated that I wasn't siding with Apple, because I expected exactly this response. Your analogy can be bad without you being wrong in your opinion.

It voids warranty though, doesn't it?

This looks like a great analogy, but it isn't. The app is still running on an Apple platform, with updates going through Apple infrastructure. It's a completely different situation. Don't get me wrong, this statement isn&#x27

I see a lot of good about and from Mark Cuban. He seems like he's mostly a good person. There might be less positive stuff I'm not aware of though. Edit: my favorite is him donating money by saying f*ck while wearing a shirt with

It's not just that some laptops don't have them, it's also that they're always in a different place. Every time I use windows, I need to look at the keyboard to find home, end, etc. On any Mac I use I don't have to

I have a dedicated lock button on the touch bar, which I use multiple times a day in the office. It's also great for searching through video and trimming in Final Cut.

I had to teach a new colleague (MBA with an innovation major) ctrl+c anf ctrl+v. To him, icons in a bar would probably be way more intuitive than looking for shorcuts online.

This is also my experience, however, during my most recent interview, my cover letter was actually in front of the interviewer. That was a new experience for me.

It's also a lie, because Facebook forces these companies to buy ads by not showing their posts to followers.

If you want access to dev releases, etc you need to pay Apple too. So to me, the comment I responded to doesn't seem like a good argument for the 30% cut when comparing to actual competitors: > Apple does much more to earn their 30%

Don't Google and MS provide those then?

Don't Microsoft and Google create these tools too? They don't explicitly stop you from installing content from outside of their stores. I can easily install any APK on an android phone and any EXE on a Windows computer (maybe a ba

Late reply, so I hope you still see it: Like the other commenter said, it's logical. It's not a managerial disease, it's just inherent to big projects that details are never clear at the start of the project, but clients do w

A 'company' can't actually do anything, only its employees can. Anything said about a company is therefore also said about their employees, since they are what forms the company and perform the actions in the name of the comp

Some of the best people I've worked with were Deloitte people. I hate this generalization of large consultancy firms. Sure, there are assholes, but a large part of the work force is really doing the best they can. I worked for a small

My previous startup had a bit of both. My access to things like mail and Atlassian stuff was automatically revoked, while I could still access the production database months later.

Why are you so concerned about some celebs being called out on stuff they said? To me, the most concerning is innocent people having lost money to a scammer, not some celebrity's public image being hurt by something they actually wrote

Entering a VPN is usually multi factor by default, because you need both a certificate and a login. Also, there's often a token as a third factor. So you're adding many more levels of security that way.

You don't need API's if you just use the web interface. Headless chrome would be a seriously easy way to automate this without having to mess with API keys.

I've been thinking about this for a bit. Perhaps these were crypto scammers that discovered a God mode and used it. To actually monetize this hack in another way would mean getting in touch with some truly powerful/evil people and

Yes, they probably have, relationships based on trust. Using information for political gain is not the type of stuff that allows that trust to continue existing. So for US politicians to both know and abuse this, someone in the US intellige

At that time BTC peaked at $1k. So that would've been $380 million max. Also, this was apparently revenue, not profit.

That's not what I meant, I meant 385k BTC. At that time BTC peaked at around $1k.

That's completely different from asking two different countries to withhold information from multiple criminal investigations for political gain by a specific group of US politicians. European countries don't even trust US politic
