I have absolutely no faith in Microsoft to make anything decent with its legacy IPs. Ohh well

You mean a society that doesn’t give millions of people criminal records for what’s ultimately a health issue ? Probation still doesn’t work. You don’t have a whole lot of bootleggers now do you ? Regulate, tax, educate.

If Crack was legal today would you light up a pipe ? Maybe right after filing your taxes ? The most dangerous part of any illegal substance is the illegal economy existing to support it. Drug dealers generally can’t sue each other so they r

The War on Drugs only serves to give law enforcement unlimited extra constitutional powers. Even the bizarre murder of Central American fishermen is justified by someone somewhere having a dime bag or something. Who needs trials , or eviden

Something else will drop the ball guaranteed. Can you show me the workflow which uses this and has an iPhone as the bottleneck

Not to mention a whole lot of new vulnerabilities are bound to arise with all this new software. We really just need better regulations around data retention, especially ppi. Never going to happen though, no incentives exist to NOT sell my

What’s the point of having a phone then ? I personally buy mid range phones for around 400$ and then buy new after 2 years. Better than buying a 1200$ phone and expecting it to last 5 years

Screens generally break because you dropped the phone and you can take out have the components that way. But no matter what your battery is at 80 or 70 percent in 2 years. Power connectors are much harder to engineer to be replaced. Somethi

All you really need are easy to replace batteries. That’s the only part that will wear out within a reasonable lifecycle. Aside from FairPhone no one offers that

That’s basically what I’m thinking. Not only is this pointless, it’s outright mis information. Who gains anything from having an llm create an imaginary person ? I guess for pure entertainment, but this looks like it’s a historical website

The context of the article being in English has to matter here. I don't know how German works, I wouldn't expect Mr Beast to change how German kids speak. Not sure about Germany, but I think France has a government organization sp

Isn’t it a given we’re talking about the English speaking world? I’m sure there are tons of Chinese influencers I’ve never heard of. Mr Beast is well spoken which as far as I’m concerned makes him a reasonably ok influence. If I was a paren

I also don’t have any real motivation. I’d imagine if the CEO of Samsung offered me a 500k TC role on the condition I become fluent in Korean within 18 months I’d put in more effort.

Different stations carry different shows often from town to town. Mr Beast is a multinational phenomenon which can be viewed by anyone on earth , practically for free. Kids from Compton to Brompton are learning the exact same dialect. Plus

YouTube has had a larger effect imo. Kids from marginalized and affluent communities alike are now being raised on Mr. Beast. Mr Beast speak may become the universal dialect of the future. Like and subscribe replaces goodbye. Who am I to ju

Because you have no control over the future of the project. If Firefox or Chrome starts going down a route where they deprecate features you need you probably won't have the expertise to keep them going. Anyway modern browsers are too

by 999900000999 14d ago
Because otherwise you can git clone Firefox , change it's name and call it a new browser. I guess if we really get technical we could say you can fork, but need to independently implement updates going forward.

They work with tons of stability issues. You can’t both praise native Linux daws like Bitwig and then claim WINE is fine. Don’t get me wrong, I actually prefer Linux when I can use native applications and build frameworks.

If you sell it on Steam or the Mac App Store we’re talking about a minimum of 30% gone off top. Marketing costs money. Taxes, etc. Not everyone is going to pay the full 150$. Various discount programs would probably exist. Anyway, even if m

The issue is building a browser is not profitable by itself. You’d need to sell an annual subscription of 150$ to like 10 million people to get a browser that’s actually developed for users and not in some bizarre exploitive fashion.

Thanks for sharing. Everyone is speed running towards a future where you need a permit to write software. Try to run a binary that doesn’t have the right cert( or whatever it’s called on Windows) and you get a bunch of warnings. Even if And

Linux audio is great when it works. In my experience a good chunk of the time either Linux audio or Bluetooth is completely bonked out of the box

WINE doesn’t work well with DAWs. Most DAWs barely work on the platforms they support. I can’t see Linux as being a viable market since most Linux users except software to generally be free. Vs OSX which lets you enter a credit card number

Very neat. All I want for Christmas is Logic on Linux. But then you’d still need a Mac to legally download it from the App Store and DRM checks would probably only work on Macs

I don’t give a crap about passion, I need to pay rent. Hypothetically if Google starts hiring paint dry watchers I’d do it for 200k a year

Agreed, this is a very silly thing to include in an otherwise perfectly legitimate project.

Ok. You have 2 options. Stop making so many harmful assumptions about your partners child. Theirs a good chance he’s just weird and he’ll grow out of it, but you’re not exactly helping here. Hell, to be honest I was weird as shit as a kid u

That’s where we’re at. I’d just prefer to grant every worker the dignity of permanent residency. The bizarre dystopian system we have now lets your employer get you deported. Not just farm workers, a lot of food processing plants are manned

Not everyone should be a step parent. GP, you don’t have to do it. I’d much rather be alone forever than treat another human being as a mere obstacle to my happiness.
