Somehow I'd be more comfortable with Microsoft handling my traffic rather than Facebook. I know it's probably misguided, but still.

Sort of related to games/graphics programming - There's an open source CAD program called OpenSCAD that allows you to create 3D models with code that can be simple, but gets complex fast. I personally tried using it to create mod

I wonder how you're able to get your name taken off the list. I imagine it would be fairly hard/impossible or involve some sort of payment.

Wait, they want to have USB-C ports on plug chargers? Guess I'm getting a bunch of USB-C to USB-A adapters to plug in my USB-A to USB-C cables.. :\

They could be running as a "health spending account" where you can spend the money on whatever you want provided it's health-related. You don't technically have "insurance" but you're insured.

Wow - I had no idea that Tencent owned that much of Roblox. Now I'm even more wary of sending my ID to a company that's owned by another company that's owned by a repressive government and can influence how anyone in the chai

I'm sure it's more of a "cover your ass" scenario where in the future, if someone gets past the ID verification system and uses an account to commit a crime on their platform, Roblox can just say "the ID company ver

(I think) I feel like I'd be similar in opinion about this with the OP, so hopefully you don't mind me putting my thoughts here! The main issue that I have is that it's down to a matter of trust. I'm mainly using the art

This was something that was more prominent during the Micro-USB era. The little metal "tabs" on the male end of microUSB connectors would start to wear out after a thousand+ plug/unplugs resulting in a loose connection that w

Who would have thought that relying on another entity for literally every single thing you do has consequences when the sole entity you rely on decides to dip out or has issues! It's crazy silly how short-sighted people are.

We can't discuss difference between genders and how important it is that we recognize it because of crucial key differences. It's going to be part of our downfall if it hasn't already started happening.

It's called a smear campaign perpetrated by the Chinese government (or it's compatriots) in order to discredit or demean someone and their opinions. Hope the 50 cents was worth it!
