They're not saying moderation is good on either store. They're unconvinced that the web is, as you worded it, "much safer." They never suggested the moderation is good and that there are no scams on the stores.

Maybe I'm too much of a left-winger and don't get enough right-wing content, but this would be news to me, unless you and I also have very different notions of what "a lot of republicans" means.

Yes, sorry, I had a non-sequitur between my two sentences. The first was about modern animated shows. The second was about how dialog in shows (not necessarily Rick and Morty) could affect kids. Regardless, I also highly doubt that Rick and

I don't have kids so I never thought about it from that angle, but I really dislike how yell-y so many modern animated shows are. Couldn't make it through a single episode of Rick and Morty. I'd never thought how it might imp

As a former CF employee, I'd say it's a mixed bag. There are plenty of resources , yet it's somehow never enough. You do tons of pretty amazing things with pretty amazing tools that also have notable shortcomings. You're

Tangent, but "outage" and "7 month" makes me feel like we need a new word. Maybe modern day and tech has given "outage" a much shorter connotation than what it meant in the past. 7 months? That's almost lo

That leaves me wondering how they got from their car to the cart in the first place, then. Maybe getting from the car to the cart is worth the effort, but returning the cart is not worth the effort of getting back to the car.

I honestly don't know how you define archaic here because it's very much a current usage of the word.

I love how being a paying Workspace customer for a decade or more has actually locked me out of so many Google products and features. Not that I have any desire to try this at this point, but it's always felt ironic.

All good points. :) I can't stand more corrected than I already do, yet here I am!

> How can you, or anyone else, be bitter about such a situation? They're not bitter about the situation. They're bitter about the degradation of their situation relative to their parents' or grandparents' situations.

I greatly enjoy the single-purpose aspect of consoles: no upgrades, no other software to manage, etc. So a single-purpose PC-based console basically made for Steam? That sounds great to me. I don't even have a 4K TV so the performance

Say hi to your friend Tim Theoutlier for me. Also good to know the iPhone 4 thing was people lying instead of holding it wrong, I guess. What exactly was revolutionary about the 11" MBA? Looking better than an equally performant netboo

I stand corrected! Not moving goalposts, but on another note: He refused regular treatment for 9 months, for an allegedly slow-growing type of cancer? That still doesn't sound that crazy, especially given he lived another 8 years.

I'd consider myself a Steve Jobs hater (and I think his treatment choices were bad) but the five-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is in the 10-15% range. "Probably", he'd not be around today. Even with his money,

Sorry for the tangent but is there a story behind the choice of "brick lock/drink/wink" for your example? It's so odd and random it seems like there must be more to it.

Exaggeration warning, but as someone who has indeed spent a bunch of money on games I ended up disliking, I find our current-day inability to cope with disappointment kind of sad. Sometimes we buy something we don't like, but it's

Apple is still embracing it: they posted a press release about it, and are selling it on their own site, though.
