I mean a month shutdown isn't much of a punishment. They'll go back online, run their staff over capacity, and neglect cleaning and maintenance all over again.

If we're going to follow that reductio ad absurdum, I live in a city why not just take the bus? But walking is only a few miles, why not just walk? Don't buy a house because it's a…

I would really like to buy a Mustang EV, but I don't want to pay the $20,000 above sticker the dealership is trying to charge at 7.99% interest. Not a mystery why these things aren…

Not for me, no change before or after the CPAP machine, but I had an over 100 AHI during 2 separate sleep lab assessments.

Teams is probably the worst communications app I've ever been forced to use. Extremely slow, random crashes, almost impossible to organize chats in a useful way, and outages as the…

Sounds about right, the RCMP has a long history of First Nations neglect. This seems like it would be a straightforward case to prove his innocence. Also a good reminder of why it'…

So much of this bot store ships from Amazon... It's mind boggling to imagine how much waste this physical spam introduces, from manufacturing, to shipping to the Amazon warehouse, …

I would assume this is more intended for locals or frequent visitors. Paris is nice, but after a few months it becomes like any other city.

I have friends who work indirectly in rail systems procurement in Canada. If they don't know about this already, they will soon from me.

Agreed, I use their services, but I absolutely do not depend on them. They can't be trusted.

Siri is so incompetent it's basically unusable. I would love if they were forced to allow 3rd party assistants.

That's a bit of a false dichotomy - just because they follow Sam Altman doesn't mean they can be incompetent. OpenAI was successful because of the rare mix of leadership with a vis…

Ah yes, the true day-to-day life we all experience launching multi-million dollar satellites by a multi-billion dollar company, endangering the safe launch and operation of other s…

Google hasn't had a track record of actually supporting their products beyond 2-3 years, software or hardware. I'll believe it when I see it.

If you took 10 seconds to read, it's not at all C-18 related. It's entirely related to India being able to strong-arm Facebook to comply.

Apple could just unpair parts when the phone itself is reset/deactivated. And new genuine Apple parts could at least have a one-time automatic pairing when signing in with your App…

I'm sure they've upgrade since then, at least Windows 98 SE.

I had almost an identical experience, except I was local to Ottawa at the time. Literally a full day of back-to-back interviews. They asked which languages and technologies I was c…

Maybe I'm missing something, but since all GitHub events can be watched through the API, I don't think it particularly matters how long it was public. Anecdotal but I once accident…

Target was a bit more complex, a combination of issues with logistics and blindly taking over basically all of the locations of Zellers regardless of analysis meant they expanded q…

End of an era, I hosted personal work on Linode for years before moving to GCP.

Same experience. Poor quality items, confusing dupes with different prices, not particularly cheap compared to other retailers. That said, their customer service was great, likely …

I tend to buy a new car every 5 years, my next one would be coming up in 2023. If you asked me in 2020 I would say a Tesla Model Y, not a chance of that happening now. Lots of grea…

Circuit breakers do degrade after being tripped. Once usually isn't enough, but repeated tripping will wear them out.

I cut my subscription at the end of 2021. The comfort shows I'd watch from time to time were leaving to other platforms, and Netflix was pumping out so many originals that it would…
