But maybe death is preferable to living with your anime collection out there.

Reddit also has some absolutely fascist mods. For example, it's well-known that if you post anything that is against illegal immigration (and it gets too many upvotes!) /r/worldnews mods will go through and ban you after the

This study is hilariously flawed, because most users made Alts for these subs. There are entire communities on Reddit which pride themselves in only posting to their "bad" sub on accounts strictly for that purpose.

I can use the incorrect finger under duress and lock the device out. I can't change my face. Faces are not passwords.

FaceID sounds like a security nightmare. I still can't believe they opted to totally remove the fingerprint sensor.

Here's a twist: By making what you made, you've made it possible for LEA to categorize and fingerprint malware/open source anonymous software etc etc. This will go unnoticed for many years, until the first big player gets bus

HRC is the farthest from an engineer you will ever see. I'm not sure how anyone with a professional background in engineering could suggest this.

I'll take a stab at it. Internet search has evolved past that of a free market entity; search is now a public utility as much as power and water. You can't imagine a neighborhood without power and water. You can't imagine the

Damn straight. Their DNS is yet another ingress point for their spyware empire. The only ethical thing to do is technically (and morally) divest from google infrastructure.

Ok? And there's "a lot" of people in wheelchairs who mountainclimb... from the perspective of the 5 people who do. It's immature word games at best, and insecure egoism at worst, to act this way in the face of overwhelmi

1. Create culture where anyone who steps outside the political or moral norm is fired/career limited. 2. Sneer about no "professional sources" for positions, since few people value ideas over employment/tenure. Only peop

For every time people pat themselves on the back about getting some nazi fired, consider there's others where the mob gets it wrong (see: Reddit and the Boston bombers). This stuff is dangerous.

This type of behavior + AMP has pushed me off google completely. I'm determined to cut them out of my technical life entirely, I've even switched myself and everyone I know/support off their DNS. I can't support their sh

What's morally reprehensible is that you think you have any right, or beyond that an obligation, to steer technology in such a way as to control others in accordance with your pseudo-moral code.

I always see comparisons for gas consumption vs construction of electric vehicles but they never include the CO2 emissions related to producing ICEs and transmissions.

Who's "we"? I see plenty of people blaming capitalism, especially on left leaning hubs like Reddit. Pretty much anytime there's a major corporate scandal criticism of capitalism is towards the top. Which is fine, at leas

Ah, the no-true-socialist fallacy. You can't just say their political system wasn't responsible for this, especially when it's how these types of governments always end up.

My apologies, I mean that yes their press is non-existent but they're printing money, 2 of which with zero fundraising and 1 who recently passed $1 mil on only $100k investment. They're doing great, GT has several major incubators

Atlanta has GT though, which is exploding with both startups and major players investing in on-sight "innovation-centric" locations. That, and there's some really cool startups in stealth mode I've yet to see mentioned h
