Pro Spotify: existing playlists and history, better artists info, better UI. YouTube Music is both better and worse: UI has some usability issues and unfortunately it shares likes …

So, basically, another smart speaker skinned as a toy robot.

That's probably driven by some kind of an AR headset. AR can't properly render solids, so it is stuck with having everything transparent. Now it won't look worse than everything el…

My first reaction was like -- wow, a site that runs on a reverb pedal.

I would also like to point out that English spelling is obsolete and should be abolished (/s). The text of the CRLF abolition proposal itself contains more digraphs, trigraphs, dip…

The latter. Plus 2 EUR/month for ad-free video. On top of 50 to 90 EUR/year for Amazon Prime. If we consider it as a sneaky way to increase prices, it's less steep than YouTube Pre…

If learning durations were log-normally distributed, how would people be able to graduate from universities and finish studies, mostly in time? Or accomplish anything substantial i…

Visit reddit, and you'll see that many of these Europeans who are against immigration are specifically against male immigrants with Black African and North African heritage. I thin…

At some point platforms should be held responsible for the ads they run and the damages they cause. If the ad is to be broadcasted to thousands of people, or worse targets groups o…

That's a valid observation, but if getting a 12-pack of identical decks is not a problem, it's enough to build 13 custom decks (all Aces, all 2s, etc). Edit: if the players can ann…

Shuffling piles is difficult to do in a way that nobody, including the dealer, knows which is which. And it requires more table space. It also requires an additional shuffle of the…
