Search doesn’t work well anymore anyway. Half of what used to be searchable has either been consolidated or is gated. Gmail search doesn’t work well either. It simply doesn’t find …

LTSC is the “real” Windows. It’s so boring and terrific. What I don’t understand is why they don’t make it more available. Just let people pay for it. I do not understand why they …

Please just make W11 IOT LTSC more available. Please. Pretty please?

It is primarily driven by the expansion of the diagnosis itself. DSM-3 Autism (1980) is quite different from DSM-5 Autism (today). We use the same word to describe two different th…

I would 100% pay for this, as long as it let me login with my YouTube account to remove the ads.

This is happening everywhere. In every industry. Our economy is being propped up by this. From manufacturing to software engineering, this is how the US economy is continuing to "f…

The pairing has become almost flawless as well. Years ago, it was slow and inconsistent, but now the hotspot feature is almost perfect and automatic. Honestly, I don’t really think…

Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." Doctor: "Then don't do that!"

Only because people drive everywhere. If you live in a well designed city you just walk everywhere and you don't have to do anything extra. It's only hard because we make it hard.

> "That golden age was short lived because all our favorite websites were unprofitable and shutdown." Painfully true.

Monopoly in charge of the world's video content shows users what is most profitable instead of what they want to see. "Content creators" suffer as a result. Brain rot content is re…

Love it.

Yeah, I didn't even account for that. Drive enough and you get into an accident. Add all the hours and cost to dealing with that. You'll probably get somewhat injured, even if mino…

Issue for me with cars isn't space vs no space, it's the amount of stress, time and money that is wasted in car-centered societies. 20 minutes to work. 20 minutes home. Add another…

> BTW can your neighbor, who keeps saying that he's going to kill you, or maybe your friend, obtain a machine gun? Definitely. This is America. There is nothing I can do to stop th…

USA says Iran can't have nuclear weapons. Says China can't have modern silicon. USA only has a limited amount of time left to dictate these things. We are playing with fire before …

> Am I seeing something different than anybody else? Maybe. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow. As others have mentioned, the core problem with Meta today is the dark patterns. They move,…

No people, no supply chain, and no total lack of environmental regulations mean most manufacturing jobs are not coming back no matter what the tariffs are. It's not just one reason…

Courier will only pay the tax if it's a DDP solution, and then bill it back to the actual merchant. FedEx, DHL, and UPS provide this as an option. If it goes USPS, or no DDP soluti…

This is an interesting idea, and I am actually curious what Apple is going to do going forward. A "Snow Leopard"-esque release would be nice, but I think what would be better is an…

It's actually wild to imagine what could be done, with current compute power, if you had the full genome of every person in the US in addition to their healthcare records. I would …

The main risk is denial of insurance due to genetics. Insurance company buys database and uses it in the future to deny claims or terminate policies.

What is there to even search anymore? Almost everything is gated, and whatever remains public is connected a faucet that pumps out AI slop at an ever increasing rate. The internet …

They are trying, and will eventually catch up, the same way they have in software and in hardware in many other spaces. Maybe it will take another 10 years. Maybe another 10 months…
