   Maybe if you had gone into psychology instead of tech, the degree wouldn’t be useless.

   You said yourself it’s not well understood, don’t you think it’s wise to err on the side of caution? What’s the downside of getting off fossil fuels anyway, besides some people needing to switch careers from coal mining to solar panel insta

   I agree with you but in a situation like this it’s a lot better to overreact than to underreact. If we do more than we need to, we get cheap solar panels, long lasting batteries, and maybe a lot of time and money wasted on ideas that didn’t

   This happened to me in 2016 crossing into Canada. Borders agents took my phone for no reason, demand I give them the password to unlock it (otherwise they would seize the phone), took it in the back for 45 min before returning it and lettin

   The problem for me is even if they release a car way better than anything else out there I’m not going to buy it, I don’t want to be so dependent on one company.

   Isn't that what you were insinuating? In any case, I agree with you that FB is in cahoots with the FBI. FB has a ton of juicy information that the FBI would love to get their hands on. But getting back to the topic at hand, this looks

   I agree. I wish myspace were still around, it was so much more fun than facebook. Everyone having their own unique profiles infinitely customizable is something I miss. Facebook came around and replaced everyone's cool, unique clothes

    Those are all improvements to their main product lines. I’m talking about apple car or credit cards or whatever else they’re going to do. If people at apple want to build a car they should form a new company to do it. I don’t want my phone,

    I wish huge companies like Apple would just be happy with being #1 in their category, collecting their enormous profits and paying out dividends to shareholders, instead of feeling the need to take over the world.

    I agree this is a good feature, however it's 2022 and maybe the government should start forcing companies like Verizon to take some of the $50 billion in profits they make per year and build cell towers in remote areas even if it means

    How large is the demand for something like this? Are tons of people really going that far out of range of cell signals?

    You're saying Trump's DOJ and FBI threatened FB with _______ unless they blocked the spread of the Hunter Biden laptop story? FB didn't even ban the story though? Even if FB is suppressing information at the request of the FB

    That doesn't sound like pressure at all, that just sounds like a tip from the FBI that they could do whatever they want with. Furthermore, they didn't even ban the story anyway. “Basically, the background here is the FBI basically

    Examples of such pressure from the government? Do you mean when Trump threatened to remove section 230 protection from social media companies because he didn't like "the way he was treated" on their sites? https://

    They should either change the verification badge to say “certified famous” or something, or just give out the verification badge to anyone who wants it, provided they successfully prove their identity. I don’t see how verifying my identity

    I know a married couple who each have identical twin siblings. The identical siblings also married each other. The children of each couple, who are cousins, definitely look more like siblings than cousins.

    But the worst offense is that AOL, like other major on-line services, is taking from the Internet without giving back. Replace AOL here with some other big internet companies I don’t have to name and it’s the same story
