Pretty much like most of the products they've been coming out with lately. With Hive gone things will go back to normal. Obviously he lost it.

Google is the new Yahoo. They cannot keep services running for more than 24 months. I would be terrified about starting to rely on any new service they create.

They're not. If you want a Mac, buy a 2015 MacBook Pro. That's what I use: it has a working keyboard, ports you'll need like USB 2, SD card, HDMI etc., and it works great. Last good laptop they made. If they make a good one a

They should come to Europe, then. Plenty of crime here.

Same thing in Italy. In many regions citizens separate waste, and they mix it back into a single landfill to save money or because they're not organized to dispose of it properly.

Why is everyone a white supremacist by default nowadays? What I said is a common critique of content coming out in the past few years. Even if it wasn't, you can also have 1 talking point in common with white supremacists without being

Do I really have to back that up? Corporations go make their products in countries where there are no labor laws, where they make people and even children work 16 hours/day, to make your shoes for 50c and then sell them back to you for

Sorry, is your point that the target audience of movies is now blacks and gay couples instead of everyone? Why am I not the target audience of movies anymore?

> I'm not saying that now there isn't a more active effort around introducing more minority representation into media, it obviously is so, I'm only arguing against that being a bad thing on its own and/or saying that

Right, but they don't. You don't have 25% single mothers, 25% blacks, 50% gay Asian couple.

I don't get what you mean.

Not really. It's obvious that Netflix or any other corporation doesn't care about minorities, gay rights, women, or what have you. They're just pandering to younger generations who are (as it's always been) more liberal,

> You're saying it's annoying to see that when you want to relax and watch a movie. You cannot relax watching a movie where there's a mixed-race gay couple? Why? Looks like you're the one saying that, uh? Look. In the

That's so stupid, though. A whole service gets blocked for 1 person? I assume this person could have gotten radicalized by talking to other radicals on the phone, so you ban phones?

Great, but if it's like my 2016 MBP, it will stop working properly again in 2 months.

Yup, the US are absolutely awful. That's why everyone wants to move there. Unless you're a college kid or just came out of college and you've just been brainwashed by your Marxist professors, I have no idea how you can have a

> and who makes the judgement on what a "truly" bad gov't is? Maybe common sense, human freedom index, etc. Are you really arguing that as Westerners we cannot tell a bad government from a good one?

> Studying the dependencies, esp for JS, takes a lot of time as well. Before including a library, I want to know if it is maintained, if it has no known sec flaws and if the author dies I have a chance of taking it up ourselves, at least

That means throwing away thousands of hours of hundreds of programming time, just to reinvent the wheel and use untested, vulnerable, and I assume buggy (from lack of testing in real world) code.

I truly hate Ive's design choices lately. It's form over function (see: laptop so thin that the keyboard doesn't work, you can't fit any port, etc. etc.), which is definitely NOT good design. Both Apple's hardware a

Google is trying to kill the competition by purposely introducing weird bugs here and there, taking advantage of the fact that they own the most visited sites on the web. They've been doing it for a while now, Tech Altar even had a vid

CNET is still autoplaying videos with sound in 2019. I thought companies already figured out in the 90s that there's nothing more annoying than that. I guess I was mistaken.
