  • That's why we need right to repair

    1. When the patent expires every manufacturer will be using it if they're forced to by legislation
  • The nicest part is that according to my (admittedly very limited) knowledge of ancient greek, you'd read Οώθ as "Oof"

  • What about privacy and bloat? Do you really need an integrated big-brother Clippy again? There's a reason they got rid of that annoying little bugger 20-ish years ago. Even killed Cortana. How many failed experiments more do we need?

    If you need AI writing, you have it in Edge or on the ChatGPT site. Will they add AI to settings to help you turn on all the bloat and tracking for you?

    Like just give me my damn control panel which has a working search feature (unlike, say, Settings)

  • Complaining in and of itself isn't bad. Hell, a bug report is a complaint and it's very much useful. As are feature requests. Whining definitely isn't good, but complaints can and often are useful, warranted and lead to a positive outcome

  • Nothing against gamification, but when they added lives about two years after they said they never will I lost any and all trust I had in them.

  • When talking about Israelis killed, the BBC used the word "grandmother" 52 times, while it used it 32 times when describing Palestinians killed. Likewise, it used the word "murdered" 101 times for Israelis killed while only once when talking about Palestinians.

    The rest of the rows are similar.

    The intended takeaway is that Palestinian deaths are reported blandly, while Isrseli deaths are painted in a much more endearing light.

    Granted, there are some considerations of possible biases towards the results. For example, maybe there were less articles about Palestinians and as such less opportunities to use the same word. Maybe there isn't enough information flowing out of Gaza as opposed to Israel or BBC. There are also the more extreme options of the authors of the data trying to paint the BBC negatively and the BBC strategically painting Israeli deaths as more tragic and brutal than Palestinian desths.

    Which option you take as the most plausible is your call tho.

  • They are all webkit-based, but they can add their own integrations like Google account login for Chrome or Firefox Sync. So it would still be benificial to boycott if you reasonably can and are willing, especially with the recent App store developments Apple might even be forced to open up browsers as well.

  • I mean you're not wrong, but it kind of skips a lot of in-between steps.

  • They aren't meant for public roads, just like Teslas.

  • Rule

    Jump
  • But shell makes jobs for a million Bobs! And then Bobs are doing something useful for society! /s

  • Yeah I get it, but still. Britain got its priviliges in the EU by being a part of it for a long time. If it becomes a problem in some 20 years, Britain probably won't be alone, will have been a member for a longish time and will most definitely be better off than outside the EU. And if it comes to it, they'll be able to leave again.

    At least they'll have the most experience in leaving which might make the second time at least a bit more painless.

  • That isn't really an issue, either Denmark or Czechia don't want the Euro but said they'll get it so they skirm around the ascention criteria a bit. Can't see why the UK couldn't do the same.

  • I don't think the main point of the barriers is preventing suicide specifically, but safety in general. Preventing suicide is more of a bonus.

  • As others mentioned in the thread, Nintendo Switches clearly don't follow the standards. So having this hole patched in the legislation would be nice.

  • What about little pucks as a compromise?

    Or ideally, a single standsrdised one

  • He's not an ex-Apple exec with ex-Apple exec boatloads of money to do it. Or with ex-Apple exec venture capitalist friends to do the money part for him.

    It's not about it being easy or hard. It's about having the backing to do it.
