With the recent new features they have been adding, I would consider old.reddit not supporting them as a feature rather than a bug. As others have said, none of the new features th…

Simply put, adblockers are antivirus for the web. Everyone should always use one.

But seriously, why would anyone be an early adopter to Google tech anymore. There's a good chance that whatever it is will be killed in a few years, so I tend to just not bother an…

Do you mean youtube music has no chromecast support? Really?

I can assure you that people with very light skin do not agree. Sunscreen is a necessity for some people.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that you can upload your music to YTM but it isn't seamlessly integrated into your listened experience like it is on GPM. Is…

This is the problem entirely. If I could create a throw away FB account to use for my VR devices and games, there would be no issue for me.

The big difference here is that Google, for now, doesn't care if you create multiple accounts while Facebook requires one and only one account that is tied to your real life identi…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe microsoft doesn't care if you have multiple accounts while facebook will ban "non real" accounts. This is the part that makes it anticompetit…

If it had happened only once or only a few times, I'd agree. This type of thing happens at every single convention.

> Are unions in the US really like that, or is it a one-off being used to spread fud? Yes, they are. I've been working a booth at a convention showing off some tech and asked a pas…

>There is a similar system in the US, based on skin color. Is there? It is very easy to find instances of poor black kids that are now multi-millionaires due to sports. Lebron Jame…

Personally, price doesn't matter, I would not use a FB device.

Absolutely the same for me. Amazon is the new Best Buy for me. Back when online commerce was starting to really take off, it was very common to go to Best Buy to browse then go hom…

I'm the same way. Videos either move too fast or too slow and generally both at the same time. That and I hate having to pause a video to view the code. I've asked this question in…

>However, it won't get new features From the new features they have been adding lately, I'd call this a benefit... And that is the big disconnect between admins and the old communi…

Those 3 along with maps, ads, and a handful of others make up the list of "safe" Google products. I agree with you though, it is the niche products that get shutdown. My point is t…

Stories like this are why I will never buy a product like Stadia from Google. There is zero guarantee the product and games purchased on the platform will be usable next month (exa…

I really liked the idea originally. Unfortunately it turned into a pretty hard left leaning echo chamber. This was partially driven by mods from extreme left subreddits being very …

> Their focus on monetizing everybody with advertising hurt their products in the long run. Absolutely. Just look at Google Maps these days. Google Maps used to be the only map app…

The reason those subs are some of the best is not just because they are strongly curated, but also because they are fairly curated based on well defined, sensible rules. The unacco…

The simple and blunt answer is that software dev is easy, the hours are lax, and it pays well. By easy, I mean my most challenging days are those in which I have to solve a hard co…

May I recommend using any 3rd party app for reddit instead of the official app. I use relay on Android and it is great. There are many other options, all of them are better than th…

> If you mean that Facebook should be regulated as a utility, by all means make that argument - I think you’ll find broad support. In this case, would Facebook become compulsory fo…

It seems like trying to build a business on any Google property is simply a bad idea. Or, if you do, have an alternative ready for when Google shuts down the product or cancels you…
