The USA just had the losing president incite a riot at the capital to stop the rightful winner of the election from taking power. On top of asking multiple foreign governments for election help and pardoning his cronies who helped him with

This is also how the USA keeps down communities of color. A white suburban kid with drugs is "boys will be boys." A black urban kid with drugs is "throw the book at this thug." A white terrorist must be "understood&

This is I think the second piece I've read about Atari that mentions how much cheaper ram was just a short time later. I think during the development of the 2600, ram prices dropped an incredible amount but the design was set and plans

No this is because the profit incentive demands new features regardless of the privacy violations of the customer. China's faults are the same we have, out of control capitalism causing social harm, workers abuse, and violating custome

I mean that was 40+ years ago, all the leadership who ran the company like that are either long retired or passed away. Atari is now just a trademark that gets sold left and right. I don't know why this is happening but no one from the

HN is absolutely a far right wing bubble. Some of us are here despite that.

There's such a poetic justice that Sheats, who was a world-class player, also helped design The Who’s Tommy pinball game.

Yep also you signed a hefty EULA with Lenovo allowing just this. Lenovo uses the google home software modified for its product. This is the same problem android phones have. Google moves on and OEMs don't bother to keep up. Or OEM&#x27

HN has a lot of "both sides are the same" centrists and libertarians. They don't realize there there is still a tiny thread of pro-worker pro-middle-class democratic action in the US government. I have no idea how much longer

There really arent any. Hate speech isn't "true" regardless of your basement phrenologists Roganism's that this race or that ethnicity is "inferior" to a white person due to skull or brain size. Or doctored stu

My take is that you're still in the easy period because babies are just still, well, babies. As they age into children and go to school, academics, socializing, etc matter and their own existential dread of the universe, etc come into

Those are all pre-modern people before the invention of vaccines and antibiotics and who had terrible health and suffered by now preventable childhood diseases. Their 35 is not our 35. Shakespeare, I believe, wrote about joint pain, aging,

Yep this. The average rate of return is 10% so this is someone who can make $50k a year just off this money alone. The real median wage in the USA for workers who worked full time in 2020 was $56k. This person has enough money to nearly rep

This is such a good point. /r/decaf has a lot to say about how life changing quitting caffeine is.

Game theory and personality dynamics strategy applies to C-levels too! For some industries, companies, etc you want to be a Holmes type of total confidence. It depends who your market is, and by that I mean the VC's you want to attract

Imagine if we didn't have these policies. The Parthenon would be a hotel for dogs, the Colosseum a parking lot, and the Rosetta Stone some rich guys footrest. This should be seen as a risk for anyone buying properties this old, just li

I think FB and a lot of VCs are going to learn that virtual worlds are boring, if not awful, unless they're tied to an addictive game loop. It'll be six years since the Vive came out, possibly the first "realistic," open

This is exactly the corporate kiss of death I've seen over and over. If I can't use your product/community/whatever without being assaulted by the sexual fetishes of others, then it's just ultimately chase away cust

Those aren't really arcades they're bars with arcade machines, and pool tables, and jukeboxes. They're just bar distractions. People go to these for the alcohol and socializing and to cater to a specific market. The games are

They can volunteer and have their application approved or denied for "reasons." Note I'm discussing the mandatory conscription law only where what I said is entirely correct.

Define "own servers" because this discussion is about controlling the entire stack, and eliminating things like ME or PSP. FANG runs on AMD/Intel, so they don't own their own stack. They have to contend with the AMD&#x2

Yep GSM standardized on some of the Hayes AT commands and added many new AT commands. Considering GSM was published in 1990, that means they were working on it in the 1980s when these commands were regularly used. I imagine there's no

Be also aware the conscription law applies only to Jews & Druze. Arab citizens are not required to serve (for "reasons"), so if your car repair shop or shwarma joint is run by Arabs, then there are not veterans there.

I'm skeptic this is what they're populating their datacenters with. These are niche products for smaller businesses. I meant they are not powering their cloud with these products. Apple's icloud is partly their datacenter run

Apple cant do this on its servers either, considering it has no server product. Google has this stack control in Android, Google Home, Chromebook, etc trivially if it chooses, if it doesn't have that already. Microsoft can do this on i

Right, but there's a difference between someone who went because they had to and got out, and career types.

I think we're up for a revision because it needs some kind of breakaway feature. At work we keep seeing laptops with broken ports because someone tripped over the charging USB-C cable and instead of it popping out, the lateral force ju

These are great points. I dont see why the FBI wouldn't buy Pegasus. Does the above poster think the FBI can just call the NSA and tell it to decrypt a bunch of stuff? The NSA has its own mission and its based on national security inte

I think I'm going to counter some of your points. First off, almost none of the people you list would be considered blue collar, that is to say low-skilled working class under someone else's employ. These people were all elites an
