We need laws that make Apple's business model illegal. No more walled gardens, including game consoles. If you sell a Universal Machine (or product containing a Universal Machine), then the owner/purchaser/leasee must have

It is not the product's job or role to make the customer act in a socially pleasing manner. It seems to happen because a customer-sovereignty respecting competitor hasn't come in to clean up the moral crusader's lunch.

Wow cool! I did not know about this! All that's needed now is an enhanced route calculation routine that avoids Surveillance and Speed Camera POIs. :DDD

It's time for trust busters to mandate the gardens have open standards based authentication-less protocols for scraping and viewing the content behind their walls. If that bankrupts them then so what? That's what they get for be

I wish Qubes Domain-0 was a customized Gentoo with OpenRC. Fedora with systemd was a poor choice to base off. Nobody should have let Poettering have the influence he was given over userland, systemd is an almost irrevocable mistake.

Guardrails are a product-quality smell. Boycott guardrailed models. Punish guardrailed model providers with reduced revenue and bankruptcy. "I'm sorry Dave" must become a subscription-cancelling response or the nannying wi

I hope this is true! Consumer credit is a serious problem. How much better would it be if only corporate entities could take on debt? That goes for school, home, and car loans too. Imagine the return to sanity in pricing when Big Financ

If it's a VW, pick up a Ross-Tech VAG-COM + VCDS, locate your Telematics unit (OCU, online communications unit) and remove it; mine was behind the instrument cluster. Then use VCDS on a laptop plugged into your car with VAG-COM, and c

I really like Mullvad Browser, which is Tor Browser -Tor +uBlock Origin, for clean & ephemeral browsing.

Sponsorblock (FF extension) is neccessary for YouTube, as well as Seal (GUI for yt-dlp) + BravePipe (fork of NewPipe, integrated Sponsorblock) for Android. Also, adding `Before: YEAR` in search takes you back to a more wholesome time.

There is a limit on production efficiency, life is full of logistic curves which feel exponential at first until the inflection and leveling off phases. It's going to hurt when agriculture does not see the efficiency gains it has been

CPI replaces steak with hamburger or chicken once steak becomes unaffordable. It understates inflation.

I'm sure it applies to Xbox too, but I priced out today's PS to the PS1 and it closely follows the inflation rate that M2 has undergone. M2 expansion is the prime driver of prices, after supply & demand. Normalize SPX, gold&#
