I have, yeah. It's an absolutely shit experience. Terrible materials, terrible internals, terrible experience. Have YOU touched one? They couldn't even be assed to make the logo shiny because it's such a departure from Apple

I kinda don't care about whatever stupid market you've got in your strange country. The ipad air is $500.

You get 40% of the macbook experience for half the price buddy. Absolutely nobody buys macbooks thinking they'll be worthless in 3 years like they do with other laptops. This is Apple stepping down to a garbage tier, and ignoring the r

I don't like vanilla JS though. I like easier-to-read abstracted JS.

Author must not have heard of Nobel Disease - many laureates go on to propose absolutely batshit insane theories. Sounds disruptive to me…

Why anyone would view a non-upgradeable phone slapped into a laptop case with minimal computing capability for the price would ever consider a Neo is beyond me. At that point, get a damn tablet. It’s literally the same thing but, like, desi

It’s not worth addressing all the inane stuff you made up here, but it is pretty funny that you essentially dance around the one problem I’ve mentioned, explain that Japan actually just incarcerates innocent people at twice the rate of the

It’s higher than authoritarian nations lol, it’s insanely high. It’s not close to other nations in anything other than a very strict “99 is kinda close to 93 if we ignore the context of the number. Insanely confusing hill to die on…

How is this the third comment lying to defend Japan? This is the weirdest astroturfing I've ever seen. This isn't even something people argue over - there's a whole wiki article on how shitty the Japanese legal system is. Wee

A single valid complaint about a nation isn't inherently some kind of propaganda. The only type of account that would imply this in this scenario (other than an extremely ignorant one) is a Japanese sock puppet account, ironically.

That's absolutely wrong. In the US it's closer to 93%. If you can't tell the difference between "sometimes we get the wrong guy, then let him go" and "we literally never make a mistake", I don't think

Japan's judicial system has something like a 99% conviction rate. It's "safe" because they swipe up every single criminal they can, plus a bunch of random people in the process. So everyone is naturally going to be on th

FYI you can just write a quick script to replace that with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID and it works, at least on a desktop firefox browser with an adblocker on it. Weirdly, it seems to explicitly not work in D

A huge number of businesses survive on whales, it's becoming really apparent. I'm kinda surprised how common it is. I wonder if this will be the next "market" to exploit if ad revenue ever dies down too much, or if it&#x

This comment itself comes across as so toxic, ironically - as if it’s somehow wrong to want to blow off steam in a way that isn’t appropriate for a nine year old to experience personally. Edit: I swear it seems like infantilizing everyone i

Yes, significantly. That’s a great way to put it. My dad is all-in, and I’m pretty surprised at how nice things can be. Still, it’s like a credit card with a fee. It’s great so long as you can pay, but oftentimes it’s a nightmare to get out

It's unbelievably useful within its own walled garden. There are lots of instances where commands, tabs, and other pieces of data transfer seamlessly between your phone and computer. You can bring your phone up as a digital version ON

It has never been the case in America (at least not since any of us have been alive) that warrants are always required. There are plenty of situations where they are not.

Right, this is my point. Looking at krill is looking at one PIECE of the stack. Other things support and interact with that stack. The stack is the whale. The point is that it doesn’t matter if this one single piece of the stack can evolve,

My point is, for instance, that they need appropriate temperatures in the water. Again, nothing survives PURELY based on caloric intake. It does not matter much at all if krill evolve.

Right, it still doesn’t make sense. You’re still using a product created by a company run by the guy you supposedly hate, why would you the decide to use a product that came from them if you wouldn’t use their product in a manner that doesn

Well the guy running Brave must’ve had absolutely nothing to do with Brave’s Adblock engine going into Firefox, so I can see why you’re acting so smug. After all, why would the guy involved with Brave be involved with Brave’s thing going so

You are literally in a thread where 90% of the discussion is surrounding chromium and you think this isn’t a connected idea? Edit: also crazy that someone who doesn’t want to support the Brave guy would support the browser using the Brave g

This would be great news if the whale literally only required krill to survive, but complex megafauna have complex needs, so the ability of krill and other small creatures to evolve is largely irrelevant in a discussion regarding the abilit

So instead you use, what, Chrome because you want to support Sundar Pichai??

Try purposely having a bad perception sometimes. I had the same problem. I couldn’t go out in public with anything less than perfect hair, or perfect clothes, or whatever. A few days of dressing in basketball shorts, shirts with holes, and
