I'm genuinely curious if we stuck VR headsets on kids, and had the proper software, if their would be any better results. I'm one of the people who think there won't be a VR/AR revolution any time soon, but I do think th

I mind it in that I'd like to pay less, but I personally think Apple has every right to control their own ecosystem and charge whatever they want to be listed in their store, on their hardware. I think it is a tough pill to swallow for

Notepad++ is still one of if not the best and most reliable pieces of software I’ve ever used. Better than sublime IMO. VLC coming in at a close second. These two are probably the last “snappy” pieces of software I use, besides maybe termin

They wouldn’t brick anything actively. You bought a product that bricks under certain conditions. You know that when you buy it.

Agreed it shouldn't be illegal , but Apple (or any hardware / software maker) should be allowed to do everything in their power to make this extremely inconvenient by putting in hardware blocks, bricking logic, updating their sof

I think it is $10 via apple, $8 via Epic. They're gaining an extra $1 on direct purchase, but that isn't really the point of this.

Epic: Apple employs anti-competitive, anti-consumer practices, and we're fighting against that! Also Epic: We'll be locking as many games as we can afford behind Epic Store exclusive contracts since our store isn't good enoug

Does the article ever actually mention what he failed at? He developed an open source game engine and... what? Did he expect people to donate to him or something? What was the monetization plan?

Working out (not including warmup/cooldown) for 90 min, 7 days per week is insane and you will be less healthy. No rest day means you'll be over trained in less than two weeks, and your workouts will get worse over time. Not only

That first link is just a Q/A. There is no study or report linked. Almost all studies use untrained vs trained athletes. They rarely qualified what "trained" means and could be anything from a lifetime athlete to someone who

There was an experiment where they introduced "B2" which was a redesigned terminal and it looked and felt much more like a web browser. People hated it. They moved it to an opt-in feature. No one (except internal BB engineers) use

Probably a mix of manual and automated. I know where was a big stink semi-recently about them manually removing content from "ugly" and "poor" people. I guess no way to be 100% sure of the validity of the claims, but her

> There's something so refreshingly playful, authentic, and raw about so much Tiktok content compared to Instagram. Isn't that because Tiktock's content is manually curated (for better or worse)?

Too loud for apartments unfortunately. I've tried a few exercise machines (bikes, rowers, and air bikes), but Peloton is pretty much the only thing quiet enough for an apartment. I wish I could have a rower and assault bike, but my nei

There are a bunch of companies that technically have that, but you are pressured to work in the office and working from home more than once a month is looked down upon. I have noticed though that if you use kids as an excuse (valid or not)

I mean the company is 20,000+ people and there hasn't been one story of anyone saying they were not allowed to get out of their NDA, nor any stories about being fired or treated poorly after being released. So either, no one took him u

But he sent out emails to employees saying they just had to email HR and they would be released from their NDAs. I don't understand what more you want?

I don't get what you're saying. Are you claiming he lied? Based on him deleting a bunch of campaign related pages after he ended his campaign?

For the record, once Warren criticized him about the NDAs during his short presidential bid earlier this year, within two days he released all the women he had under NDA from them as well as any current employees who wished to be released (

Personally I can’t go back to a 60hz monitor at this point. So really can’t go to 4K until there is a reasonably priced 144hz monitor with low input lag and response times. I’m okay sacrificing color for speed (TN panels are okay with me).

The actual number $135B (or whatever it is now) is entirely theoretical since there is no way for Jeff Bezos to actually obtain his net worth in cash.

All of his wealth is wrapped up in Amazon stock. If he tried to sell 2/3 of his stock, not only would Amazon's share price tank (the founder is selling most of his stock), but he would lose control of Amazon and his net worth woul

Just as a heads up: Assuming this is due to lease being up and the landlord deciding not to allow you to renew, I'm pretty sure the landlord is required to give 30 days notice if you've rented for less than a year, and 60 days not

Is there a setting or something in either chrome or FF to block websites from being able to port scan you?

So really you're betting on what "allsides.com" thinks, not if an article is actually right or left leaning (since there is no objective measure of right/left leaning).

Is the lose of smell due to mucus build up? Or something more scary like directly affecting the brain's ability to process smell based input? (Or more likely somewhere in the middle?)

Theoretically, no, but in practice if you know that "password123" hashes to "blaHb1ah" then you get a DB of hashed passwords and see "blaHb1ah", you probably know that person's password is "password

You can't reverse most hashes, you can just check if one thing's hash is the same as another thing's hash. If they are, they're probably the same thing.
