I'm not so sure. Certainly that they get publicity is something special and very recent (almost post-2000's recent). However, by far the largest change has been the removing three or four zeros from the capital costs of recording

Reasonable people already reused single-use bags. Trashcan liners, dog walk bags, cat scoop bags, etc. Having recently been reminded that it used to be common to see eviscerated VHS tapes by roads, I've been reminded that we'll a

Might I suggest, instead of taking all the piss- to find an actual flaw in the given argument and highlight it with words?

Recording and distribution aren't anywhere close to zero, and a myriad of other costs haven't changed. Are they likely taking excessive percentages of an artists sales? Yes. But- artists are also more able than ever to wing it the

First, the mall is the internet as a whole- you're going to have to pay to be there (entrance is free, getting there is not), then you use their property to get to private businesses that have leased space at the mall. And finally: ht

I left it open as to if it was a hardware or OS level item that prevents 16bit. Because I don't know, and don't care to dig that rabbit hole. Also- DOSBox is an emulator vs VMs are hardware, no? I suspect A VM won't fix the &

The only claim I'm making is "never underestimate humanity's ability to hold to an initial assessment/viewpoint/assumption." Which has so many examples it's almost a truism.

You speak of "The Loudness Wars." It was a fully intentional choice made by people who knew exactly what they were doing. For the most part, bowing down to label pressure to let people think their stereo is louder. Except for the

Define "486-compatible." As far as I know even intel's newest cpus can run 486 era 16-bit stuff in hardware. But, a plain answer: Via Eden boards. still use north/southbridge architecture, and are from the mid 2000'

All websites are private (excepting maybe government sites). In most places the internet infrastructure itself is private. You're conflating a legal concept that applies to areas that are shared, government owned, paid for by taxes, an

That would be an incorrectly configured http server. Not wordpress. Things used to be distributed with .htaccess files, but only apache uses them and so that got offloaded on "blame the admin for not following documentation." Forg

Even complaining about Vista raises eyebrows. It had two huge issues: overactive UAC, and Microsoft handing "Vista Certified" to basically anybody who asked. (Frequently to machines that would barely run XP pre-SP1.) Most of the c

DC fast charging is already 500-800volts- so 125A max for 100kW, only they liquid cool the lines so you're not trying to plug in a big floppy... 4/0awg... anyway, its mostly a water/liquid jacket- not copper.
