Of course they do. How do you think warranty works for in-person cash purchases?

Waiting for someone to an emoji-x86 backend to LLVM/GCC.

Stop being reasonable we are all gathered here to burn the witch.

The problem is that all responsibility being moved is who gets to shrug. There need to be nontrivial per customer damages paid for each such incident.

The solution is obvious: make it illegal for companies to collect and store user data where it is not strictly necessary to fulfill the direct customer needs. Collecting less data …

Cars are actually the best solution to transportation once you stop ignoring inconvenient but real requirements like autonomy and isolation.

I don't agree with the premise that creating is no longer the hard thing. It's only been automated when your taste is bad.

I do actually prefer Never Tear Us Apart in the opening scene more so the director's cut is the usual way I rewatch it. Have to agree with gp that some of the other changes are unf…

It doesn't have a high false positive rate.

This is like saying you don't want to travel on a highway because if you keep going in a straight line you'll end up in the bush at the first curve. Not a particular deep take - no…

In both cases people are using the heuristics they have to deal with the onslaught of slop, nothing wrong with that.

100 bytes in 20 seconds would only be 40 bps. Surely you can do better than that even using only one bit symbols (off/on).

Donnie Darko is interesting because the director's cut has significant changes to the music compared to the theatrical release, including the one played in the opening sequence.

The Internet we are talking on didn't require the current unsustainable data center build-out. This is like saying that people complain about companies dumping toxic waste when the…

Exactly and many friendships are formed from sharing common spaces in the first place. Both online and offline - with the difference being that the online spaces have a one-click b…

Exactly. Perhaps OP was just lucky to never encounter any hardships that tested his online friendships before they moved to real life.

How about attaching a generator to the corded electric lawnmower. That would solve both the long cable and charging problems.

And you also don't get to leave the mower in the middle of the lawn when you're done.

There is no discussion. My computer, my rules: no harassment and psychological manipulation allowed no matter how much your business model relies on it.

Even if you will be able to play "GTA VI" in twenty years it won't be the same game as you grew up with because everything is a constantly changing live service now.

Blu-Ray disks are just data, like DVDs. If you have the decryption keys they cannot be disabled unless you are using software you don't control, in which case it could do the same …
