2.5 hours of entertainment + forced ads, plus no control over the play experience, plus have to be at place at time, plus very expensive snacks. Vs A month of all you can enjoy streaming, with cheap snacks and full control? It starts to fee

I can't justify paying more than a month of streaming for a specific movie that I have to share with people and where I can't put in a pee break. Cinema just do not make sense unless you are a total fan of a given franchise. I wan

Thats easy: get out before the cops gets even more killed like Uvalde.

In the 1920s you didn't have email, but the post was delivered multiple times a day. You didn't have telephone, but probably somebody nearby you could call and give a message. You didn't have a freezer, but you had a butcher

I am in the process of doing that, and my answer has been to move all the things that I can to the new account, and then keep the old one around until nothing more I care about comes there. And you can be I own the domain for the new email.

Thats true. I think the example from AWS is some once in a quarter data ingestion being much, much cheaper on lambda, and of course if you have your own build machines then you are limited to how often you can build without having people wa

We used to get only a limited number of Internet hours. By the time December 2003 rolled around my family had always on internet. Besides what Google does here is besides the point, because Bing has already unleashed ai search. Google will

You are making the assumption that people don't read the articles, but what really happens is that most articles do not show themselves to be relevant enough to read. News articles are supposed to be informative, yes, but most are not

Porn is not dangerous, it is just parents that don't want to talk about sex with their kids. What is dangerous is social media, which should be banned < 21.

I use my phone, and it needs to work regardless of rain or not. It would also be nice if it worked even if I slip it into water by accident.

There are lots of niche androids. The fair phone does have a replaceable battery. As the context of this debate is ewaste, giving up water resistance can reasonably be assumed to increase ewaste.

It’s not the markets fault if it doesn’t sell what you think it ought to sell. Edit: rephrased to not be unnecessarily offensive.

And give up water resistance?

As a book reader, I always value recommendations, but you could choose to improve your comment by stating what made you like the book.

Advertisers need to select subreddits that fit their niche better. Yes there is porn on reddit, but that shouldn't stop amazon from advertising on /r/books. Not all subreddits are equally suited for ads, but some of the subre

Microsoft made win dev tolerable by including Linux. To properly work with git I installed gitbash -- that is essentially Linux in a box, complete with git, ssh and the basic bash tools like cat. To do more complicated things, you can insta

Just to clarify: when you buy you get a license for the current version that is yours to keep and then you get updates through the year, so you can drop back and use an older version if you don't want to keep paying. Mind you I had the

It doesn't bring anything new to the discussion, but if it is the reason people don't use it, then it is relevant. I don't use it, because I was Mac/Linux at home and Linux at work for so long - only now do I have a re

As if Facebook isn't dystopic enough. We don't need AIs. We need somebody to bad commercials for shitty stuff.

Would you also agree to this ban, if it was to expose a group of homosexual men having consensual sex, assuming it was illegal?

I live alone. If I want to share the second screen that Netflix forces me to buy with my brother, why should it matter if he lives with me or not? And don't mention TOS, they can write whatever they want in there. I wouldn't care

Not in the long term, but in the short it means you save bandwidth fees.

That and one of the great benefits of Netflix was that you could watch multiple seasons of a show, and that a season was 20 ish episodes. Now they do 7 episodes and call it a season and frequently their shows only have one or two seasons.

I don't know if it was intentional, but when I saw the headline I assume they were axing the free tier or at least making it significantly less useful. They were in fact doing the opposite.

If Samsung is smart, then they ensure that their users gets access to new Bing as default, which means that even if people switch back (read get their nerdy friends to switch them back) they will find that Google is missing quite a lot.

You take it down, and give what info you have to the police. The main problem has been that mindgeek didn't take it down, because they were idiots.

Of course. People are already paying a ton of money for sex dolls, this is even better. Startup idea: full body skinsuit with haptic force-feedback + 3D glasses and virtual porn.
