Democracy is not a spectator sport. You have to be vigilant for it through the years. With that vigilance, it helps to be able to accurately assess the problem. In this case, Durov wasn't arrested for non-Western aligned subject matter

In my country the anti-vaccine groups incensed each other so much that at one point they started burning down cellular ("5G") towers, causing reduced availability of emergency services in rural areas. They gathered in front of pol

The funny thing is, if it wasn't Amazon that Alexa was ordering stuff from, you could bet your ass people would have been using it like that. But because Amazon sells used diapers, counterfeit items, can have gigantic price swings for

I’ve seen my 60yr old mother struggle through four different healthcare framework shifts in like 7 years. I fully understand the issue, and you’re selling your (grand)parents short. Keep your anger, you’re just wrong.

Yup. Most of the anti-cheats have been ported to Proton at this point. Usually when games don't enable it, its because the games haven't been well-engineered and are too easily exploitable. Destiny 2 is another example, turning on

Sony also did some really weird stuff with the PS4 to make emulation harder, chiefly among them the PCIe “glue device”, a PCIe device that masquerades as one of 15 (?) different ones, depending on the function needed at that instant. Geohot

Apple can’t. Qualcomm’s special area of expertise is in cellular, not WiFi. And cellular is specced and regulated to the extreme. There’s nothing extra Apple can do that Qualcomm isn’t. They can optimize, but they can’t revolutionize.
