to be honest, he's made me appreciate Ben Shapiro which didn't feel incredibly likely going in. Prior to that, my experience with Shapiro was the stupid videos people would share on Facebook of him "OWNING the libs." So

I think your appraisal is probably a fair one, but I wouldn't isolate it to iCloud, it'd be anything where a device operates with things outside of itself. My car isn't new (2007) and lacks the built in bluetooth-ish stuff. S

The parent (unless we mean further up chain) didn't call them advertisements, but stated that they are store apps that auto install. There is certainly a placeholder there so they are for sure advertisements, but I don't believe y

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure those autoinstalls are placeholders. If you go into add/remove programs, they're around ~120kb give or take. I think this goes along the lines of the "Office" install that would

I think they mean tiles in the start menu advertising various games like Candy Crush-ish stuff. If memory serves, I removed them and moved on with my day. Think the occasional big update will add a new one, but then you remove it as well an

I thought the Dorsey interview (and the round table with them, the legal/moderation lady with multiple titles, and that Pool or whatever his name is guy) were pretty good. Not a fan of Stephen Crowder (sp?), but that interview was pret

well, they tend to lock down things moreso than the US does (such as great firewall) at least currently, but I agree: it is mostly speculative as to what is there. And China isn't going to downplay the speculation. Frankly, they want e

What I find most ironic is that outside of Search, Youtube is probably the least linked Google service to your account that springs to mind. Ban your account? Private mode and/or VPN and you can access YouTube again. Can't get the

pretty sure even with my adblocker, I still see the "watch 5 seconds and skip ad" ads. May've configured it that way, not sure, been a while. But to your question, if the ad blocker is subverting the company's revenue mo

If they're structured so that shareholders can do this directly (not a case of needing to be able to influence the board), they'd have to convince 11% of other shareholders to either not vote (if just a majority of yays/nays

I'd imagine the ones who are going to boycott Epic games have been doing so already over the launcher/store. I don't see this event adding more to the heap. Personally, I'm not one of these people, but I have refused to

While I'm not a fan of how the NBA is handling this, I kind of lay the whole thing on their doorstep. Political commentary is not new in the NBA. LeBron was told (indirectly) on Fox News to "Shut up and dribble" as an example

Don’t think that’s the specific purpose. Seems more geared to “who did what,” “what is meant by this passage,” etc. That may seem to be “accepted answer about what God’s opinion is” but I’d imagine the intent is to aggregate what is online

I’m not going to pretend to know the intricacies of their monitor, but what if just drilling holes in the back in accordance with the VESA standard would damage the underlying screen/electronics? So an adapter would be needed, right? N

Looks like the aim is that you’d use Bluetooth for those. I know that isn’t what everyone wants and there is that option for corded, but the mindset seems to be for wireless. I’m not sure how many ports are needed, though I’m sure more coul
