This isn't an issue. You either have the ability to pay the monthly fee (which would probably enable cheaper subscriptions, saving people money), or you can't afford it & you'll ex…

I hate that we still are talking about this. Ads suck, and there's already a better way to do things. Micropayments are the answer. Everyone on the internet pays a small monthly fe…

That's pretty funny, and is literally what I did with a CLI tool I made once. It was supposed to loop through something that was over 10,000 entries long. It finished in under a se…

I think the tool they used came from their capital reserves. IIRC they had about a billion dollars worth of BTC, and they have money from other sources as well. So they got liquidi…

I'm not familiar with how Google does it with Android & Chromebooks, do you have a similar level of understanding there? Your explanation was very good, thank you for that informat…

Hot Take that no doubt will meet a lot of doubt: I would make a prediction that Window's next OS, is going to be semi-Linux based. Imagine Windows doing to their OS the way they di…

mine is giving me slight killroy vibes love these

I highly doubt Google would embrace something that kills there business without having a plan. Off the top of my head I can think of 3 scenarios: 1. Google is investing in tech tha…

And then Charlie walks out and goes "Ooooh, uh oh, uh yeah, guys you know what... I think I know what they mean. Last week when everyone was talking about the virus, I had just wat…

Test your internet speed by seeing how fast you can download government malware and upload your personal data. It's so innovative!

I always felt like the hardest position to uphold is "Anti-Kink-Shaming", A) it's embarrassing, B) there's some... questionable kinks out there, C) the amount of adhoms you'll get …

Say what you will about the crypto & blockchain scene, but I can't fucking wait for us to move over to it more & start adopting more tamper-resistant decentralization standards... …

lol this is true, I guess they meant they didn't replay it as much as they'd like to, or those replays weren't as fun, but to me it seems that playing a single player game multiple…

I'm stupidly illiterate to online sarcasm without a /s involved, so if you're joking then my bad. But, if you're not... You really don't know how to draw a rectangle? It's like the…

This comment needs to be higher. A strange amount of misinformation in the top comments, and phrasing that makes it sound like solo designers can now only make 3 projects (or the c…

I love open & new hardware stuff like this. Currently using an Ergo Dox keyboard & I firmly believe it has saved me lots of wrist pain to date (plus I look hella cool typing withou…

But there's nothing stopping me from stopping the DVD halfway through. And who's to say I'm being drip-feed these movies on autoplay? What if Ghibli had their own service (please n…

I wholeheartedly disagree with this statement. I think that all streaming has done is allow for easier access to music, not "less meaningful" access. Many family members of mine LO…

1- EU can tell Facebook to remove posts WORLDWIDE due to a politician's hurt feelings. 2- Blizzard bans you for speaking your mind. 3- Apple removes apps that support your right to…

Haven't embrace, extend, extinguish always been used in a malicious way? I can't for the life of me figure out why any front-end framework would want to maliciously kill of javascr…

quantum computing dual-state ads doing A/B testing simultaneously... I don't know if any of that just made sense, but I bet you could get some VC funding if you pitched it!

I like the idea of having metacritic and more review-oriented info upfront near games. There's currently a few browser extensions that solve these issues. Valve would benefit from …

> We're always trying new things with Steam, but often only share them with the world when they're ready to be made a part of the platform. Steam Labs allows us to share these idea…

lol, I think you need to re-read what I wrote and not have that "hate" implication going through your mind. I'm not against BTC, I love blockchain & decentralization, I toy around …
