In the last decade, I’ve had that sort of issue affect me twice:
Anyway, I guess the gist is that I wouldn’t have expected Windows to do any better in either case.
You have to reject smart TVs at the time of purchase, or manufacturers think this shit is okay and will keep escalating until even an Nvidia Shield won’t save you.
And then buy a non-smart TV instead. At least one company, Sceptre, still makes them. (I don’t want to make it seem like I’m shilling for a particular brand, but I genuinely don’t know of any other options, aside from commercial signage displays.)
They still scared a bunch of people
Can confirm. I should have been involved with Stop Cop City protests – I cared about the site before the police bullshit was even proposed – but I have a family to worry about and the fascist AG has successfully chilled my freedom of speech.
Yes, yes it should. But that’s a different act than the one being discussed here.
$250k * [every book in existence] is literally nothing?
Remember, “offense” doesn’t mean “per torrent,” it means “per copyrighted work infringed.”
Technically, copyright infringement is committed by the entity making and sending the copy, not the entity receiving it. Leeching could indeed remove liability.
I’m not sure if the courts have cared about that nuance when persecuting the ‘small fish,’ but I bet they would in this ‘big fish’ case.
I’d almost like to think an LLC would be enough, but I suspect that only works if you also have a billion in VC funding and political connections.
with a fault line quite literally 50 feet behind my house.
Well, not quite climate change-related, but as long as you know that living in the mountains doesn’t make you invulnerable I guess I’ll take it.
These mountains?
Or these mountains?
I would ask for a rule that titles have to specify which Georgia the article is talking about, 'cause this legitimately could’ve been about people in Atlanta protesting Trump/Musk/Cop City/etc., but I suppose such an article would be removed for violating Rule 1 (“Not United States Internal News”).
Hatchbacks can fold down the rear seats to extend the cargo area. The Cybertruck fails even at that.
It’s an Ute (as the Australians et al. call it), like the old El Camino etc.
Real pickups have body-on-frame construction with cabs and beds bolted onto the chassis separately, so that the bed can be removed and replaced with a specialized/custom one if necessary.
My guess is that, with Musk basically in charge of the government now, investors are expecting huge returns from corruption.
I don’t know that there’s any sort of conspiracy, but it’s definitely true that a huge part of the market is in “dumb money” – index funds that just buy every stock weighted by market cap, and thus exert no influence on what the companies actually do.
I did not love bonzi buddy.
Also, it’s more and more clear that it’s a bad idea that websites can just execute arbitrary code. The JS APIs are way too powerful and complex nowadays.
Javascript in general was a mistake, and always has been.
The web should’ve had Scheme or Python instead. Or better yet, we shouldn’t have given up so quickly on Java Web Start because then we could’ve had proper web applications with their own windows and native UIs and such.
Maybe websites and apps should’ve stayed separate concepts instead of merging into “web apps”.
Damn straight!
Ah, so the headline is misleading in Trump’s favor. Why am I not surprised?
Are you kidding? Trump is incredibly consistent: he simply does exactly what he thinks would most benefit him, personally, and fuck everybody else. No more, no less.
It’s only not an “understandable philosophy” in the sense that it’s so vile and shamelessly greedy that philosophers are too embarrassed to formalize it (and Ayn Rand doesn’t count).
