There wouldn't be a problem if there were three or four competitors on each social media platform. Instead we have near monopolies on status sharing (facebook), opinion sharing (twitter), video sharing (youtube), photo sharing (instagr

This is actually one of the major annoyances for me in Linux. Each distro has its own package manager and set of packages. Yay, yum, apt, pacman, dpkg, portage, the list is near endless and as each package manager needs a reason to exist, e

A Color Laserjet can be bought for roughly $450. A high-capacity replacement for all 4 toner cartridges will cost just over $700. That makes my Laserjet disposable - once the toners are nearly empty, I will sell it on eBay and replace mine

Not sure about that, the Windows certificate store has been around since forever, perhaps even since Windows NT. The same goes for certificate management in Linux. I think it was mostly because it was far easier for the Java team to roll th

Formula E is so slow that they do all their races in street circuits, so they appear to go faster. Totally boring.

Federal employees in the treasury, while being paid, should discuss .. the treasury. Not libertarian ideas, not CRT, or any other controversial theories. They are free to do that on their own time however.

That is not true, there are many car parts I can replace without voiding the warranty. Tires, oil, windscreen wipers, seats, car stereo, the exhaust, the battery, the list goes on. You are perhaps focusing on engine parts only. Apple is not

Because your right to stay free from Covid, requires people to behave in a certain way (masks, social distancing) which is at odds with the right to self determination. Sure, it's stupid, but people should be allowed to make stupid dec

Many people look on Twitter first. Brazil could therefore argue Twitter is interfering with government communication in a time of national emergency. That carries a very high penalty in many countries. Besides, this is like the phone compan
