    Cranes are also useful for construction, doesn’t mean every fourth house on my street should have one

    None of that is a refutation of what I said though, since I reject the notion that belief in the existence of the soul can be used as justification for stripping a person of their …

    Uh yeah I don’t think anyone needs to have “the argument” explained. I have yet to see an explanation for why it deserves any merit though.

    “not all men”-ing libertarian crypto bro gun nuts is really a “fourth-level-down in Inception” own goal

    Even the IDL admitted they couldn’t confirm those reports. Hamas has done plenty of atrocious things, we don’t need to sensationalize.

    Be there. I was 14 when we had to put our first animal down; my mom, someone I guess you’d describe as hyper-emotional, was a wreck. A year later we had another, thankfully just of…

    I don’t see that happening tbh, since they made Secure Notes for this purpose which (i would assume they believe) offers a better experience than storing not-logins with logins. Se…

    No one said they don’t have the resources. They just asked why it’s incumbent on Apple to spend them, which your response.. doesn’t address at all? If we’re going to post with that…

    My anecdata is the opposite of yours. My backup history is over 15 years old! I started backing up using Time Machine when I got my first Mac in 2006. Migrated my sparsebundle from…

    Predatory pricing is certainly one way to enshittify, but far from the only one so I still think the umbrella term is more accurate (despite it, you know, not being a “real” word)

    I actually find the term so refreshing. It’s so poignant and perfectly sums up the experience, but adds a twist of cynical humour. > to describe a real and fairly obvious problem w…

    In fairness the 13” MBP is an entirely forgettable machine that IMO should not exist so I definitely don’t begrudge anyone making mistakes about it!

    The 13” M1 MacBook Pro does not have the pro or Mac chip. Not sure that’s what is being used here, but your assumption that this combination isn’t possible is false.

    Not giving a direct answer to a question isn’t the same as avoiding it; it’s asked disingenuously, so the actual answer doesn’t matter. Just like your follow up question, which is …
