It's obvious that Air Canada is trying to avoid setting precedent for what qualifies for compensation here. Canada has a foul domestic airline industry. More times than not from what I've looked at and read - it's cheaper to

Wouldn't they get a better rate of carbon collection if they put the facility in places with worse air pollution? Like manufacturing hubs, etc. Seems like a bit of a waste to build this whole facility in Iceland with a population of 40

I wonder if it's something to do with the user agent or possibly a combination of browser settings that Google has kept track of to specifically set when going into Incognito mode so they can track you better when running searches.

Is Microsoft putting a local model onto each Windows 11 install now? Would an Intel NPU built into Intel's CPUs make copilot perform better? I though Copilot was exclusively ran through a Bing i-frame-esque window in Windows 11? Unless

It just shows that when you put people who don't have subject matter experience in positions that require said subject matter experience, they do stupid things based on what other "experienced" people say, or what is politica

I can't wait to see what the definition of "harmful content" is. It's likely we'll never know the specific definition because it'll use subjective wording that is up to interpretation which will conveniently be

It was made during COVID to make re-entry into the country easier. Included things like quarantine instructions, etc. etc. etc. Now it's being used as a pre-entry customs and declaration tool to fill out information before you arrive t

I knew the UK was going sharply downhill with the surveillance state nonsense, but that far already? Wow - I have even more respect for the people who risk their lives to damage and tear down government surveillance cameras for the common g

Wonderful how society can elect people to represent a country that are like an "elderly man with a poor memory" - this goes for all sides politically. I guess this says something about the political parties who help decide who get

It is both amazing and horrifying that we live in a world where we look first at the benefits (oh look, these preservatives allow us to keep food for longer!), but don't look or even consider the side effects (oh, maybe these preservat

The article mentions that they were able to stream video from a starlink satellite as it was de-orbiting - it would be neat to see the video of that, even if it cuts off as the laser link losing connection (or the satellite burns up)

I have no hopes that Broadcom will do anything beneficial with VMWare - only adjust product offerings to continue to suck as much revenue out of large companies who are slow to change things like virtualization technologies. Broadcom bought

I wonder how much of the data was _actually_ relevant to the Russian military - things like climate, natural disasters, weather data, etc. don't seem very helpful - the only thing that might help would be satellite images over time to

The telemetry screen showed that the craft might have flipped over, doesn't look good for a landing unfortunately... You got this next time, Japan! :)

It's wonderful to have resources online for cooking that aren't filled with SEO, blogspam garbage that tells you about how the author made RECIPE for their grandma and she loved RECIPE, and her grandpa, who sort of loved RECIPE, a

Absolutely disgusting that Microsoft and all these silicon valley companies preach that they're green, eco-friendly, safe for the world, etc. - but when push comes to shove if they want to push changes that make millions of computers o

I recall a website maybe around a decade ago that "sort of" did this, except it was called Hitler Hops - and it posited that any article on Wikipedia was only (i think) 6 articles away from getting to Adolf Hitler. You'd put

Sorry, eh. I wonder if property values will be affected at all with this news - even if there hasn't been an earthquake in that spot for thousands of years. It goes through quite a lot of buildings!

For someone who isn't experienced in how Linux crashes - what currently happens when there's an error that can't be recovered from? Does the device just restart?

They've finally conceded and re-implemented the original task bar method of "let's actually label the icons in your taskbar so you have some idea of what you're actually clicking on before you click it". You have to

Absolutely infuriating that Youtube used to have background play as a feature for free and then decided to hide it away behind a paywall because they had to monetize it somehow. They also decided to get rid of Google Play Music, one of the

I think you'll find that Elon/Twitter will adjust their sites to not show ads next to antisemitic/controversial content, and these advertisers will come back after a while. It's not like they're going to willingly i

I agree with your statement - I know it's anecdotal, etc. etc. but it seems to have some credibility to it given my upbringing and my experiences. You don't learn executive functioning skills when the opposite is modeled by your p

If this gets popular and more common in society, we're going to see somebody harm a person who put their voice/mannerisms into this AI because they're not going to be able to differentiate between the AI and the actual person

My doctor suggests I take Vyvanse on the weekends, 7 days a week - I feel like after taking it so long (almost a decade) I don't know who I am anymore off the pills - like I'm a different person almost? Did your doctor suggest wee

I wonder if Microsoft will eventually hard-code the requirement into their OS - they've stated the registry fix will work as a workaround, but "you might not get the latest updates".

The first paragraph implies that Apple takes down the website to promote new product launches - is that... correct? Seems silly to take their website down for new products.

Amazing how the government is _finally_ coming around to this, especially after the ship has sailed in terms of mergers with Rogers/Shaw, Telus/Numerous smaller ISPs, etc. _Now_, there's a problem with competition, because th
