Because there is no liability. If they were fined $10k per leaked ID, then there is a serious liability there. Right now, they publish a press release, go 'oopsie poopsie', maybe have to pay for some anit-fraud things from equifax

Even if you haven't. My partner is an iphone loyalist for years and was very disappointed that they removed the "open tabs" button out of safari. I (new to iPhone) had to show them the pinch-out gesture to show your tabs. It&

I feel like this was copy edited by ChatGPT and it really grates me. I couldn’t help but lose focus after I started seeing telltale signs of AI. While the topic matter is interesting, I feel like obviously synthetic content falls into the “

All of my personal network has stopped non-mandatory travel to the US. I wouldn’t be surprised people wouldn’t resist if their employer told them to go for business, but many Canadians are simply opting out of leisure travel to the United S

you have outlier needs if an rtx, the fastest consumer grade card, is not good enough for you. the intel card is great for 1080p gaming. especially if you're just playing counterstrike, indie games, etc, you don't need a beast. ve

almost all of the major ones? voices on the internet have lead people to believe that the journalists at major publications are biased, and that somehow also means they're lying and unethical. what's interesting is that those opin

Buying a bunch and then blaming everyone else 12h after you seems disingenuous. It sounds like you’re trying to clear your conscious from panic buying. However, some people went to the store to find nothing because they weren’t able to go a

It's certainly possible. It helps remove leverage from people trying to make a living. If your labour isn't needed, then what? An alternative view could be, this is just the same as every other technological innovation.

The keyboard is completely nonsensical. I really don't understand how iPhone keyboard is so bad. Even if you install the Google Keyboard, iPhone keyboard is still bad. I can't fathom what is going on here, but I really dislike typ

Why wouldn’t they comply with tx duration? You don’t want excessively long tx as you can’t rx at the same time. You’ll lose messages.

I don’t know why people delete rules on fairness (laws) and then expect things to become more fair. Electricity transmission at the minimum should be owned wholly by the public to remove profit incentive. There’s your downward pressure—no i

The duty cycle on hdmi connector is like 10k. I imagine probably some of your cables in a lab would actually plausibly hit that without too much issue (then apply standard deviation: some will have broken much earlier, and some won’t quit)
