Yes, yes, ignore the catastrophic consequences of climate change and the political unrest that we're already seeing because of it. "We've had all this before, it's fine". Oh fuck o…

Considering the things the Republicans and Trump have done in the past years, it's not just about "not liking Republicans".

Funny, I agree with him because of things like Covid being self-inflicted. We're so unable, as a species, to avoid even known risks (yes, we've known about the risk of new Coronavi…

It's hard to determine what our ancestors actually did. I'm sure you could argue any number of solutions they might have used. I'm wondering though what the prevalence is of these …

It's been done for as long as I can remember. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_binning Iirc, early Celeron were often just Pentiums with defective (and disabled) cache Edit:…

Seems to me like you're the one that cares too much about "orange man bad". https://www.newyorker.com/news/amy-davidson/edward-snowden-t... https://phys.org/news/2016-07-wikileaks-…

I don't think Biden could do that. It would be as bad as, if not worse, than another 4 years of Trump as president. It would mean that there are no standards by which a president i…

Why is there a statute of limitations for government officials? This shouldn't be a thing when you're entrusted with the responsibilities that you are concerning an entire country …

Isn't there an online check to ensure you have a license?

Currently working part-time as a PC technician. Recently had a 10 year old PC here that had to be upgraded to W10. Did Microsoft complain? Nope. I replaced the HDD with an SSD and …

Unless you're on a device that can only be upgraded to 10.13, after which it won't get security updates anymore after 11 is released. Meanwhile, I can still put W10 on 10-12 year o…

Afaik, there's an offline mode. It seems like you're forced to complete an online update before you're allowed to start the game proper though and you might be stuck with the origi…

I agree it's not a great article. I wonder though - is there sufficient data out there to make a good article with the same title?

> However, bug bounties are not a job. Nobody is forced or obligated to do anything. I'm giving them 'a pass' in the future :) It's great people are discussing this and surely it w…

This might be unpopular, but if you don't feel like the compensation adequately reflects your effort, then you're free to do whatever you think is fair. It's your work. Slack isn't…

Unfortunately, we live in a world governed by money as a motivator. While you might not be in it for the money, many people are, to a certain degree (you know, to make a living and…

What in god's name is with all the bootlickers in this thread? I have no love for Apple or Epic. But if this lawsuit leads to better treatment of third-party developers on the plat…

This is great, but to use it I need to sticky the bookmarks bar to the top of my screen when vertical space is already precious. Does anybody know something else that does the same…

I'm sure there are civilian experts and they absolutely should be involved, as well as elected representatives who are (preferably) guided by experts. Your average citizen has no b…

Have they said anything about pricing yet? This would seem like a decent solution for roaming data during travel too.

Let's go further. Make it a quiz about the general topic too. If you don't have any fundamental knowledge about a topic, your opinion shouldn't get a platform for it to spread.

I started watching some DCS dogfights on YouTube because of the last MSFS post. It looks incredible. If I could afford it, I'd definitely buy a stick/throttle and try to get into i…

I'm really not sure what you're arguing. Military research needs to be funded always , because when war starts, it's too late. Civilian research needs to be funded always , because…

I get the line of thought and the idea of inflated military budgets but I'm not sure your average Joe should get any say in whether a new weapons system should be funded or not. Th…
