It randomly showed up on my Windows machine after an Edge update. This reminds me of how Internet Explorer was once the most popular browser.

> Illegally circumventing the Terms of Service is unethical/stealing. That seems like a difficult argument to make because laws don't always align with ethics. Given the myriad of …

I think whether or not it will actually be cheaper remains to be seen. Right now many AI products are still being heavily subsidized, thus the cheap or free price tag. Once these s…

Not only that but from what I understand, a major nerve in your jaw grows closer to your wisdom teeth over time. So if you wait on a procedure like that until later in life, it inc…

So everything was fine before 2016? The DNC was tampering with the Democratic primaries before the 2016 election cycle. The ruling class decides what is best and everyone else is e…

Likely depends on whether or not that's the reason most people are buying it.

Not to mention how primary results become conveniently bungled (one party in particular comes to mind) when they favor candidates which are not particularly well liked by the estab…

Apparently my comment was also not in lock step as you say. I'm not questioning your decision but if we're providing anecdotal data points then we should provide as many as possibl…

Sounds like you're assuming your situation applies to everyone.

Anecdotally, the CEO of my company just died of Covid.

I used to work in a small computer shop and there were some (presumably) 60-70 year olds who I wouldn't consider to be computer literate in the least running Ubuntu and even other …

I did this before in the past with a key off of eBay (no indication made by the seller that the key was not legit other than the suspiciously low price) and everything was fine unt…

> Competing interests: Karim Ladha and Hance Clarke are principal investigators of an observational medical cannabis study funded by Shoppers Drug Mart.

I wonder what this means for users of Australian services who reside outside of Australia? For example I live in the US and use Fastmail as well as some Atlassian products.

I certainly hope that is the case, but I remember the Nvidia CEO (it has been a while so things may be different now) saying they would not increase production because they were wo…

>What makes dollars unique is that if you inject more dollars into the free market for a good, then ceteris paribus, you will cause more of that good to be produced. If the video c…

US is also getting kids back to school but that doesn't mean the virus is under control here. At this point I don't think there is much of a reason to believe anything China is rep…

I mean the virus came from China so I guess they didn't do that great of a job of controlling it. Not only that but can we really trust the numbers China is reporting? They have be…

Really strange decision to make in the middle of a pandemic. You would think they would be encouraging activities which enable social distancing, not banning them.

You're claiming that tenant protection laws are the reason apartments are kept empty? That seems like a pretty tall claim. Why would someone even continue to own a space that they …

My significant other owned a 2011 MBP and experienced the same thing... She didn't know about the recall and I didn't get a chance to investigate and find out until after the recal…

Agreed... 2019 MBP here and the touchbar went toast in less than a year. At this point I'll never purchase an Apple product for personal use unless my hands are tied.
