Where the hell do people go that they are away from power for 15 hours and are on the computer the whole time? Are they video editing while in the middle of a safari? And besides, every time I see comments like this, all I can think is that

Both. If I sell obviously pirated CDs on the street corner, it's not only illegal for me to copy them and sell them, it's also illegal for my customers to buy them.

A fair usage model isn't some handwavey bullshit throttled quota buried in the ToS and marketed as "Unlimited." Its applying a realistic usage quota equally to everybody in the same payment tier that is spelled out right up f

Let's hear what you think about gambling addiction then. People have destroyed their lives and families due to it. No chemical dependency either.

He's referring to his activity ON THE DEVICE. We know you can't stop the location tracking from the carrier. But that doesn't mean give up on everything else.

Yeah but we can take lessons from that 100 years of car experience of how humans interact with objects and apply a lot of it to computers. Its not like we are starting from scratch like we were 200 years ago.

Are you saying that you like pointless meetings that waste your time? I sure don't. My team generally does a lot of work to ensure that our meetings are short and productive. It's a point that comes up quite often.

I had hoped that by now, people would be educated and tech savvy enough on computers that something like this could be a reality. But these fucking phones and tablets have made people so computer illiterate, there is no hope for something l

Oh yes, just let Cloudflare solve all of our problems. Fuck this. We shouldn't have to rely on yet another huge company to fix this for us.

Whatever. I've been using it since day one and its still a broken turd. People are just used to shit software, restarting, rebooting, missing calls, missing messages. Sure you can make it work, but you can't deny its a real piece

Do these trucks actually drive themselves into a warehouse, and back into an empty spot? Can they actually navigate cities? Or only on the interstates? What kind of loads are they carrying? Can they navigate mountain passes? How much of the

You mean the standard 180kph speed limiter (which is on all cars in Japan) is removed on the GT-R when it's on a track based on GPS. There's nothing stopping you from racing it up to 180kph on the street.

I would say that marketing people have a motivation to make exaggerated claims, while the rest of us are trying to just come up with a definition that makes sense and helps us understand the world. I'll give you some examples. "Un

We don't equate self awareness with consciousness. Dogs are conscious, but still bark at themselves in a mirror.

Like, its fine that you use it for that, you do you... but I don't understand the actual use case? What are you watching the dogs for? Like are you going to rush home if they shit on the carpet or something?

What limitations stop someone from plugging them in regularly? If you have a charger at home, what stops people from plugging them in at night? And who cares if this guy is the outlier? You're going to bash on the car because people ar

I remember getting my hands on a rip of Titanic, burned onto 3 CD-ROMs in 1997/1998 before it was released to video. I used the CD burner at school to sell copies to other students, and got in trouble for it lol. Just having a copy of

What do you mean interior EV design? Why does it have to differ from an EV to a gas powered car? You might have some different gauges, a control or two that is different, but other than that, why does an EV have to look a certain way?

My favorite is when it cites 5 sources, and 1 of them is a real source, and then the other 4 are short form junk that point to the first one as the source. So basically its just picked one article and summarized it for you and not picked an

But I think you have to add every Meta domain into that container manually. The other one sounds like it's got them all already put into their own container. Convenient if you one day decide to set up an account on Instagram but never
