Companies are not allowed to leverage their dominant market position in one market in order to gain an advantage in other markets. If you dislike monopoly and antitrust laws, go vote against them.

Replace "macbook" with "iphone" and have the computer smart nephew jailbreak and install shit on it and the result is the same. At the end of the day, virtually any hardware you hand over to a user they will be able to b

Much like the usb charging situation, it's a delaying tactic. Of course they're aware that this isn't something they can win but they can fight and delay it for as long as possible in order to both have some profits from it w

We don't actually know that. It's possible that connecting that pin shorts some circuit on the card that prevents it from operating. I suspect you're right though.

Hacking is largely used to mean the breaching of a system by some unauthorized actor, and why shouldn't it? Word meanings change over time and this one got broader. That said, phishing is a form of hacking the individual so even by a s

To be clear, we say that an electron has -1e charge: that "e" is the absolute value of the charge of an electron. The charge of an electron is approximately −1.602176634×10^−19 Coulombs. Quarks have either +-2(1.602176634×10^−19)&

A small note: the anthropic principle doesn't make us "lucky" to exist in a universe that supports life, quite the opposite. The probability of life coming to existence in a place (universe, celestial body, whatever) that doe

If that were to be the case, we'd have to change the values of the other forces that these charged particles interact with, such as the strong force. Not that it wouldn't necessarily be possible, but it would require everything we
