A huge difference is Steam doesn't come pre-installed on your computers nor does it block you from installing other game managers.

I'm refusing to upgrade my 6 years old phone because all the good phones I would want don't have headphone jacks :( Just think about it, the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is half an inch thick and they'll still complain they

Since they care more about reducing laptop thickness by 1mm that adding battery, I just don't see laptop manufacturers be interested in this. Even if they did, they would just make the laptops even thinner instead of increasing capacit

If you think copyright in general is dumb, then the U.S. should drop it together. Keeping copyright for humans but allowing "copyright laundering" by using A.I. is dumber IMO.

I started watching harp videos and they're all so calm and composed, like harp music lol. I really wonder if they're attracted to the harp because they're harp-like or if they became harp-like because of playing the harp. The

I find people's faith in the AI disturbing. I'm a Canadian who's never set foot in the U.S. or a striper bar, but for a long while it was intent on showing me ads for bikini bars in Florida or Hooters. Even if you assumed I l

If Meta doesn't care for money, then I really don't understand what Facebook has devolved into. It used to be a chronological feed of what your friends are doing. Now all I see is an infinite steam of anger-bait, thirst traps and

You would think the government would start being afraid of what the Russian (or any other adversarial foreign government) could do to the IT infrastructure in a war if it's this fragile though.

90% of our education system is really just watching over the kids/teenagers so they don't cause trouble while parents are at work. I don't see AI doing that.

No, I don't think it would be a problem, which is why I'm asking the question. Human eye has a 13ms latency according to google and yet it doesn't stop Olympic athletes from existing. I don't see what making the latency

In the sister comment, I did some math and because the guy was 188cm and 220 pounds to start with, he needs 2400 calories per day just to keep his weight. He would have lost at least half a pound per week with the diet you just mentioned.

sure but from google, he gained 25 pounds in a month. a pound of fat is about 3500 calories. 3500 calories/pound * 25 pounds / 30 days = 2916 calorie surplus. Morgan Spurlock is a 188cm tall man, which let's say he's 30

He was also gaining more weight than the laws of thermodynamics allow based on how many calories he was supposedly eating. Alcohol has a lot of calories.
