Real people who will tell you that your minor, fixable, hardware or software issue is impossible to repair, or would cost twice the price or the device, so you are advised to buy a new one or upgrade. The main reason amazon's support i

Because according to Apple vs Epic, Apple doesn't have a monopoly. We're shit out of luck.

How did billionaires amass that much riches? How much environmental distrution, erosion of democracy and workers rights, and general negativity brought them up to this level? Giving back a few million to the community does not offset that.

That I don't need to stare at a small, bright, distracting screen when I'm there to relax and enjoy time with friends. Add to that that most restaurants have terrible accessibility in these digital menus, like PDFs with tiny fonts

When you're a CEO, you're also the face of the company. His "personal contributions" were to support banning of same sex marriage, and it was just 5 years earlier. That's just unacceptable, even in 2014. It really s

It's honestly a pity. Firefox is it perfect but the Internet is becoming worse because of chrome. Google is able to fast track any non standard Web tech and the hordes follow. Soon after, that become the standard. I don't want t

I think no company has yet figured out how to make affordable waterproof phones that are also user serviceable. The moment you open your phone, you destroy the adhesives and say goodbye to IPS6. Watch makers have solved this problem long ag

Another way to make money without having to detray customers is to... Ask for money. One Plus positioned itself as a cheap flagship killer by having paper thin margins and no marketing, and the moves to just make expensive phones like anyon

Most UX design makes lots of assumptions. Someone who is not familiar with Google maps could very well interpret the dotted grey arc as a real path. It's almost identical to the dotted blue path.

For a project as massive as a browser, being open source is vastly irrelevant. Only major companies are able to truly maintain a browser these days. You can fork Chrome, sure, but you won't get anywhere with it. Chromium is Google.

Did DDG have a trademark ovet bangs? That's just a feature that users expect. Other small search engine frontends have those too.

I love github as a product but for the past months, issues are a weekly occurance, often multiple times a week, and always in the middle of the day (Europe).

Adding a microphone, a GTP3 chatbot and a speaker also seems like a quite trivial addition that would enable chit chatting.

Google has been doing this for years to many users when changing their search engine, and nothing has been made. They own the legislators.

In Berlin, if you live in the ground floor of a residential building, you're stuck being the building's personal packstation. No mail man will bother ring all the bells of the building.

It's funny. I've been using Nebula occasionally (terrible interface, slow as molasses, close to no discoverability of videos, but otherwise nice content), and it's always so weird how videos just get to the point and then end

While I agree with you, the truth is that among gay men, the use of condoms was already in sharp decline despite HIV , and before PrEP being so ubiquitous years ago. So while this medicine might have made people forgo condoms faster, it al

People have always killed other people. Some people even eat other people. And we let them. Have you tried to convince a lion to eat a soy gazelle? I suppose not, because of the strong language barrier. They would probably not digest it ver

Depends of the volume. Cows don't just drink, eat, and return lovely fertilizer. The huge amount of urine and manure some cow ranches produce is dangerous to the environment around them, and to the ranchers, so their waste actually nee
