Small criticism but your article wasn't direct about where this exec crossed the line from corporate nepotism to criminal fraud and money-laundering. The press release from the DoJ details how he structured his kickbacks without netfli

That story with Steve Jobs vs the Apple Extended Keyboard is quite funny because it's one of my favourite keyboards. The original mac keyboard M0110 has comparable build quality but with a tiny layout.

Yeah, netflix saw this balkanization of streaming services coming and they started spending other people's money on original content so they couldn't have the ball taken away from them. It seems to be working for now - they'v

In telecom you get to work with real living adults, media industries are rife with exploitation because they're peoples "dream jobs". If you read the legal complaint filed by the state of california, blizzard had gaming loung

Yeah I felt minor horror reading the abstract. Do we really need to reduce caloric density through indigestible plastics when we could just.. you know.. eat plants??

My win10 install recently started deleting my install of qBittorrent, which I very much want installed and use daily, as "potentially unwanted software". Exceptions kept getting ignored so just today I disabled the entire category

I read about this on HN and then lost it for months when I wanted to apply it to a crappy game on a random discord server. The game lets you bet on chicken fights and tells you the probability your chicken will win (starts at like 62% chanc
