Well Nintendo has been able to outsell both of them combined without subsidization, so it shouldn't be too big of a problem.

That would be cool if they did. And lets extend it to all devices. Once I pay for a device, I should be able to do whatever I want with it.

You're forgetting the one thing that sets Reddit apart. They get crazy people to perform moderation tasks for free. It turns out that a lot of people don't ask for a paycheck as long as you let them push their ideology on an entir

I would bet most of these protests were funded by the fossil fuel industry. The chances of this many people organically being anti-nuclear are near 0%.

Protestors sabotaged the transition to nuclear power in the USA too. It wasn't limited to Germany, that's just where it started.

1975: The first cancellation of a planned nuclear power plant occurred in Wyhl, Germany due to protests from "environmentalists".

I've seen slides from marketing agencies where they're called Brand Fanatics. Apparently if customers are emotionally invested in a company, they pay 3x more or something like that.

Browsers did exactly that. The problem is that websites don't respect it since nothing is forcing them to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_Not_Track

The USA actually has pretty strict emissions standards for diesel engines, so most cars on the road are relatively clean burning gasoline cars. But in parts of Europe or Asia, diesel vehicles are much more common, and their exhaust has a di

Yeah, I just don't like how people here are providing a false dichotomy of "renewables vs nuclear" instead of "renewables+nuclear vs fossil fuels". We should put solar panels on every rooftop so we're not throw

Here in Finland, the national power grid operator provides a live graph of how much that each source is outputting. Its kind of funny how solar produces almost no energy during the winter this far north. I'm very happy that we have tha

I know at least Firefox has per-site permissions for location, webcam, and microphone access. Is it a correct interpretation that Safari on iOS does not have this feature?

Why stop there? I hear Nazis use the internet. By that logic, all internet users should be tracked.
