Thanks for this, it's new to me and that entire ama is fascinating. edit: Out of curiosity, why would one consider him infamous?

My worry is that some games will be distributed exclusively through these streaming services and people will be unable to even obtain a local copy. There's certainly incentive for publishers to do so since it'd eliminate piracy,

I'm sure a lot of people feel the same as you, but I very much disagree. If games aren't art worth preserving, then neither is television, movies, music, etc. I don't see how one can claim those mediums are art but games are

It remains to be seen how much Blizzard will actually suffer for this. How many people will cancel their WoW subscriptions? How many will boycott their next big game. I have doubts that it will be a larger impact than the profits they&#x

I usually don't have my mouse hooked up to my desktop and I've found Cinnamon better to work with without a mouse. I tried Gnome out under Ubuntu (both the latest LTS release and non-LTS) and while it's better than Windows, t

From the article it sounds like this is strictly an issue of it not being legal and regulated. The pesticides and contamination are present thanks to the black market. It's absolute insanity in my view. We have people advocating for p

Imagine an alien civilization applying that logic to human beings. I for one wouldn't feel privileged to be used as cattle for the consumption of another advanced species.

If it's in .NET core, does this mean that WinForms will become cross platform (without having to use Mono)?

It seems strange and wrong to me that the document be housed in America and not in England.

I'd be fine if they limited it to just unpaid recommendations, but they include sponsored pocket stories in the new page tab too. It's inserting advertising into the web browser in a round-about way.

It makes sense to handle the taxes for something like healthcare on the national level because people aren't going to renounce their IS citizenship to avoid their tax obligation, but they may move to a different state.

What? I'm not sure I understand what you're saying exactly, so please correct me if I'm making misinterpreting you here. There are going to be people who are worse off with universal health care due to higher taxes, there is

I dislike discussing this in terms of freedom, because I feel that it misses the severity of the situation. After all, how free one is when they're dead due to lack of healthcare? The CDC estimates that 45,000 Americans die each year
435.
by suby 7y ago
A lot of these are tied to lack of healthcare. We need a universal healthcare system in America, I'm tired of arguing with people who claim that we can't do what almost every (if not every) other western country has already done.

Thanks, this is helpful. I'm building a similar system to Talon but based on Deepspeech (I don't have an OSX device, and I'd like to use it on Linux without having to run dragon in a VM which in my experience is an absolute

Microsoft gave two examples where telemetry helped them in an Arstechnica article a while back. One was fixing a bug in their alarm clock app, the other was fixing an audio driver issue. If these are their go to examples, seems to very mu

Not sure if this is what you're referring to, but we have created DNA with additional "letters" which don't appear in nature. https://www.livescience.com/64829-hachimoji-dna.html

Notable in that they raise concern about Canonical controlling snap app distribution. It strikes me as a legitamate threat to linux if one format controlled by a single vendor gains dominance in the ecosystem. Especially because a number

Considering that advertisements are a common vector for installing spyware and malware, I think adblocking and antitracking are two sides of the same coin.

I'm not the author of the parent comment, but for me, it's about sustainability. We are destroying our planet and perhaps our future ability to support a population as large as it is today in the name of capitalism / consume

Is Brave 100% open source? I don't trust them at all because I feel that the underlying business model is shady (replacing website ads with their own ads).

16 year olds working min wage is the edge case. The average retail worker for instance is 37. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https:/...

The average retail worker is 37 years old[0]. If it is possible to structure our society in a way that those who work a minimum wage job are able to support themselves, then we should do so. I'm kind of flabbergasted at the resistenc

It won't be forced to take a similar approach. Google is leaving the code in the codebase for enterprise users, so presumably it will just be a toggle / straightforward for them to keep it functional. Microsoft also has the manp

I can't really comment on that without seeing the clip myself, but in general, I find that show and other's like it to not be conducive to good conversation. The audience is always extremely biased, and stops the flow of conversat

This would absolutely impact end users when they can no longer find custom themes through their distro of choice. It is unreasonable to expect each end user to build their own custom themes, it makes far more sense for distros to do the wor

by suby 7y ago
It is not a reasonable request, though. End users want the ability to theme their system, and you cannot expect each end user to make their own themes. People rely on distributions for this to happen. I understand that the devs do not wan

It's going to be backwards compatible with the PS4 according to the article.
