That‘s the fault of capitalism. Which the right supports even harder than the democratic party (which also completely supports it).

I think people don't actively notice most of these things. But they sure as hell notice when you take them away after. A good example of this is ProMotion. People don't notice high refresh rate when they first get a Pro. but they

They use both. Especially for their cloud customers. They offer Cloud GPU as well as Cloud TPU as a service on Google Cloud.

I‘ll take it. Even offline backups would be an improvement. For people worried about having not consented to other peoples backup. They could implement ephemeral-only chats, or backup-excluded chats where both parties have to agree to chang

> Passkeys are not cross-vendor transferable! They are when using a third party password manager like 1password or dashlane. At least in they are device agnostic. Haven‘t yet tried to export a passkey to another manager.

A media player like nvidia shield or apple tv is just a lot more performant and gets updated for ages. TV firmware mostly gets abandoned when the next generation releases. The interface gets laggy and slow very quickly. Also, some people ha

It‘s really a pity. Unfortunately the gaming market is so difficult to penetrate. It took MS decades and endless amounts of money. And it’s really shitty for cloud gaming prospects. Likely MS will take it all over the long term and there wi

Exactly. Wealthy residents should at some point realize that culture and entertainment venues/options are (often) created by lower income residents. If that disappears you get soulless places which are dramatically less fun to live in.

I never had this feeling. Especially in the first one. You basically have the Balin‘s tomb scene and Amon Hen at the end. It never felt drawn out to me.

They would have done that ages ago I think. They could have made the „default“ Android messaging app similar to iMessage. But couldn‘t because they needed to keep the OEMs (mostly Samsung) and regulators at bay. Android needed to be open in

No. This reframing of the issue is incredibly reductive. The best thing you can do for homeless people us provide them with housing. Shocking I know. Once they have housing — no strings attached housing — you need to provide health care (me

Apple now moved on this by the smallest possible amount. They‘ll allow media apps (like Netflix and Spotify) to link to their own payment system on the web. Though the details aren‘t quite clear afaik.

I doubt it would do much good to have a ban list. An entire industry is singularly focused on gaming search engines to promote whatever. It just so happens that blogspam sites are incredibly profitable in aggregate.

I’m not really familiar with US tax laws tbh. But even if you can’t you would only ever need to liquidate equity to pay the interest. Only those payouts would count as income. Maybe an accountant can chime in.

Not really. They just get loans at incredibly low interest rates, using their equity as collateral. They can deduct dept/interest payments from taxes and never actually have to sell a lot of their stock. That way their wealth can accum

You can act quite normally when microdosing. If dosed correctly (it takes time to find it and depends on the person) micro-dosing (usually around 5 - 20 ug per dose) an obvious effect in not as apparent as you might expect. For me, 5 to 10

Banking infrastructure is pretty terrible by default. Almost everywhere. It‘s 2021, instantaneous transactions should be the default. If you send a SEPA payment in Europe (most modern standard) it still takes one business day. And intercont
