    "Things on my phone cost more, so its clearly a better phone." Based on the above stat, it sure seems like Androids more versatile and inexpensive for a much larger group of users.…

    I can't find the link youre referring to in the vague chaos of this thread, but based on his current donations to a virulently anti immigrant party, it sure seems like your partner…

    So your stance seems to be "It's okay to fund Nazis as long as you like what they have to say about the trains running on time." I understand that you want to defend you business a…

    What are you inferring here? That your friend only makes moral choices, so this one should be judged through the same lense? What "moral choice" specifically was Daniel supporting?…

    The primary financier of a political party that calls immigrants "parasites" does not support open borders. Claming otherwise is at a minimum disengious, but with absolutly no clar…

    The above isn't believable. He gave $500,000 to a political org that has explicitly called immigrants "parasites," dehumanizing phrasing that mirrors Nazi speech and has been used …

    The poster is the treasurer too. How can he not know where the money is coming from and what constraints its beholden to? Wildly unprofessional or just willful lying.

    Why would someone contribute to Ruby central now, when the org has been shown to be callous and incompetent stewards who are utterly incapable of showing even minimal respect to th…

    One week is a big part of the idiocy here. Anyone half busy with anything is going to miss miscellaneous bullshit from management like this, especially when management is prone to …

    Self-driving car companies dont want a unfiied signalling platform or other "open for all" infrastructure updates. They want to own self-driving, to lock you into a subscription on…

    Literally yes. They knowingly offloaded their collusion to a 3rd party and an "algorithm" in order to illegally profit from a cartel. It's happening in more than just housing too. …

    The police reached out to Tesla legal within days and asked if they needed a subpoena. The Tesla lawyer said no, but then directed the police to make their request in a specific wa…

    Look into XCP-NG. Its an excellent implementation of xenserver with a vsphere style single pain of glass called xen-orchestra. Its all FOSS and buildable from source. It comes "bat…

    An ideal side effect of over overbuilding solar 5x for winter is that you could then use that spare solar in the other 3 seasons to make green hydrogen, an energy intensive process…

    What they often do is put different units on the same type of good. Three chocolate bars? One will be in oz, one in lbs, one in "per unit." They all are labelled, but it's still cu…
