Not once in all that time did I consider using a program with hostile default settings. Weird how hard this might be for an image viewer.

Maybe I’ll get some hate for this, but years ago when I worked at a civil engineering firm this was the default image viewer IT had mapped every image file to open with - it was a nightmare! Every coworker I had (myself included) would cons

I think “backbone” in this context is a stand-in for “integrity” and/or “honor”. I think the fact that they can “buy, sell, and eliminate people and governments as they see fit” is the obvious proof that they don’t possess any real int

This comes across as a really aggressive comment for no real reason. A lot of people find too much free time distressing. Even with a lot of projects to pursue, or come up with, it can be difficult to focus on any particular one for the sim

A really nice write up! I’m a professional land surveyor and it was interesting reading an outsiders perspective; for the most part you really nailed it!

How does having a “digital twin” of the physical object prevent the object from being counterfeited?

I’m fairly certain the owner of the domain is unrelated to the Cicada 3301 challenges beyond hosting a fan site. Their PGP signature is completely missing from the website, and in the words of 3301 itself: all messages will be signed with o

Your point seems predicated upon more people being “poorer” rather than focusing on the fact that there wasn’t nearly the wealth inequality we have now (which you mention, but dismiss). Personally, I’m of the opinion that “poor” is relative

My understanding is their “Blackbird” model is meant to be the lower priced model, though Raptor acknowledges the whole line was never going to be mass market; rather, a well made and open computer for those who want full custody over a “mo

Funny, this is what I thought as well. To be a conspiratorial…he has to have SOMETHING on all of these VCs.

This reads comically incel-ish. “Women know their value”, like a self-respecting man doesn’t? Why aren’t your male friends doing the same thing, then? Life doesn’t end at 40, for either sex. With/without a family, married/divorced

If you don’t know something, and know you don’t know something, you’re likely not going to do something bad with that information. For example, if you don’t know anything about engines, you’re probably not going attempt to fix one. But ofte

For the record, yeah, I’ve worked on putting up multiple skyscrapers. From the on-site work (physically speaking: I was a field surveyor laying out grid lines and offsets for the other trades), and off-site (as a construction project manage

Have you ever worked on the construction of a skyscraper? I only ask, because, well, that was my question originally, and, well, because your question does nothing to answer that question. So, have you? Or are you just another online bystan

I also downvoted, and it’s honestly because your point comes across as not understanding any of Martin Scorsese’s direction and body of work. Nearly all of his movies (primarily, mobster and crime related) are centered around characters and

The whole book is about the search for an entertainment disc so addicting anyone who watches it winds up so enraptured by it that they consume it endlessly until they wind up dying. Sounds a bit like a less intensive phone/social media

I can’t find a single instance of this being said about his pay cut in the media. If you could support this claim, it’d be appreciated. Also, as an Apple shareholder, that’s definitely not my reaction to the pay cut.
