To be honest I'd rather live in the world where people have an overabundance of care for each other rather than the world where people disregard the well-being of others entirely. Of course it's not binary, and it shouldn't b

I imagine the FBI strongly considers scale and intent. Troy Hunt is very obviously not reselling accounts, for example. Though keep in mind that the FBI can go after whoever they want, sometimes without reason at all.

Apple is moving in the opposite direction in macOS, so I wouldn't hold my breath on them choosing to do this whatsoever. Sideloading goes against their entire iOS app philosophy. This would also mean that Facebook would start sideloadi

Doesn't Vox consider articles living artifacts and regularly change them as they become more informed? More like a wiki that's meant to be highly relevant in search results? I'm not saying this is right or wrong, but it'

This was my interpretation too, she's seeking reassurance from her mother... who says she shouldn't care, but she doesn't seem satisfied

Some people have been working with Photoshop for decades, it's integrated into industry wide workflows. For me some complex 4-key shortcuts (the legacy save for web claw) are second nature. It's the devil we know very very well.

What's the recourse from the student here? submit your data to third parties or fail? Inevitable lawsuit fuel?

serious question: has humanity produced any net gains for the environment or any not-human-centric ecosystem? To my knowledge the track record of things we've improved for humans will be much longer... so I'm not sure that's

That was already known, it's an included spec when you're buying an SSD and already written into the warranties... this is an additional warning for this use case: >“If users use our SSDs for mining/farming and other abnor

That sounds like what they're saying. I imagine when they determine warranties they're looking at what they estimate to be "normal" use? Reading/writing to capacity 24/7 certainly creates a lot of heat for a lo

I'd be vegan if not for cheese, so I hope they can catch up with the beef replacements (which I am 100% happy with at this point). IMO they're not there yet, but are getting closer.

So I guess if you swing it the other way, the popular rhetoric around drugs is that they'd be better off legal and heavily regulated . Pro-drug proponents are all for this. Why are pro-gun proponents against more regulation, especiall

Unorganized individuals from twitter contacting your employer isn't harassment. If it is the implications would be scary the other way around: would you punish someone who pointed out a problem that happened to become popular on a soci

Much of NYC is SO dense that it seems absurd that anyone, even police, should be able to fire a gun there. It's almost impossible to do safely in any context. I understand that people feel compelled to protect constitutional rights, bu

I'd wager that Canada has/had many fewer malls than USA (per capita). Even many small nowhere cities would have a mall.

After living in various parts of Europe for a few years and coming back, the US way of doing it seems mind-boggingly wasteful. Huge swaths of our country are long roads that lead to massive parking lots. And of course we're obese, many

Many (like myself) also don't realize how far away they live from areas with great nighttime viewing conditions (a 3-4 hour drive for me). :(

It seems odd to think that their first attempt at this, which largely consists of small consumer-level devices with little to no active cooling, is the best they're going to do. Not to mention that they've already been dominating

This is in no way related to their financial struggles. The USPS was breaking even regularly (phenomenal considering what they do) until they were forced to save up funding for 75 years of pensions within a 10 year span. Not only that, but

When people make comments like this do they seriously think providing a single example tears down the concept of systemic issues? This is a "it snowed today, so global warming doesn't exist" type of comment.

Early on in my career it was nearly impossible to have psychological safety because I was constantly worried I'd be risking my physical safety if I did anything that could put my job at risk. I attribute a lot of this to weak social sa

Yeah I use other tools for passwords, etc and turn off a lot (though not history! that's serious business) I also use a pihole to block ads and trackers more completely, but I do like having an additional browser-level feature with &qu

This guy seems overly angry and judgemental about something he could just talk to his neighbor about. Also seems like some minor changes could avoid the issue entirely. I live in a large building amongst other large buildings and depending
