   I think Amazon as a company has earned a bad faith reading into all of their business ventures by bullying small sellers on their own platform by directly competing with them and using sales data to beat them in their own niche. I'm su

   I thought this might be the case, I haven't used chime and didn't really research into Amazon's messaging capabilities.

   Considering that at least Google is a direct competitor, and Amazon is very aggressive at stealing ideas from their partners, I think choosing an alternative like Oracle makes sense simply from a business ecosystem and competition perspecti

   Interesting that you bring this up because they made a great business decision to serve their own ads on the platform and they actually take a cut of all the ad serving. I don't think they would be as successful without that strategy.

   I had to disable the lock screen on GNOME/Ubuntu to get it to work so I feel you there. I am on Focal Fossa and after a full update the lock screen bug was actually fixed, although I have it disabled anyway. Just FYI.

   Feeling a noticeable speed improvement on my Thinkpad running Focal Fossa. Hearing variable fan sounds that I am not used to running on Linux as well. I feel like the fan has been much more active when running Ubuntu as opposed to Windows.

   Yes! This brings back memories! This site inspired me to learn CSS. I was doing free Xanga themes in high school, lol.

    I could find 100 sources spanning both the left and the right that will detail the mistakes made by the FBI. Considering that Trump is still president, and all of the Americans prosecuted were for lying to the investigators, not for colludi

    There were many issues with the investigation that negatively impacted the outcome. Including misleading warrants and withholding contradicting evidence from the court. Considering nothing happened after the Mueller investigation, I conside

    Not sure why you put that in quotes. It's also not what I "think" but a pretty widely shared opinion. I'm not really taking sides here, it's common knowledge that the FBI botched their investigation of Trump/Ru

    Would be really cool to retro-fit these on an older vehicle. Replace the center console with a tablet, some OS handles the lidar.

    Considering that Marijuana is illegal, this seems impossible to prove. Show me the development of a teen in a society where open marijuana consumption is a non-issue to compare against.

    This is good insight. I have done some searches recently and found products that are at the best price seem to be buried. Maybe it's because they are bad products.

    Came here for this. Amazon actually buries the cheapest price products in many searches I have done. eBay is not any better at this point. They are all squeezing to show higher priced products so they can make more money, obviously. Hate to

    Why are you hung up on a binary view of this? Do you think our current usage of oil is responsible? Do you think a corporation encouraging extensive oil use at all cost is the same thing as "oil saves lives?" It's not.

    Also time to start asking people to leave their phones in their cars, taking them as they walk in your door, or warning them that you have your phone on as well. Anyone who uses a voice assistant should be warning others of this at all time
