I think this would make a nice secondary machine for those interested in an accessible Linux distro. Pop!_OS is intuitive and recognizable from a functionality standpoint for newbies and pros alike. I will keep my eye on it, and see where it goes. The price point seems to be at a good place.
I can't believe this is still a thing, from both sides. There is no stopping piracy or greed, maybe some speed bumps here and there. For the pirates its an access issue, that can range from "can't afford" to "can't see it" to simply just "I am cheap". For the companies, it's profits, pure and simple. I always wonder though how they quantify taking into consideration most pirates weren't going to purchase movie/music anyway.
Search is their main gateway to the advertising dollars. "Google it" is synonymous with any search regardless of the engine being used.
I have to imagine that if your search and/or use of keywords is specific enough, you will find exactly what you are looking for regardless of the search engine you are currently using. In the end, everyone has an agenda, from both ends and everything in-between.
I disagree, if you don’t like it you can move to another platform. No one is forcing you to use it. For that matter “The Hill” can create their own. Always silly, the entitlement to someone else platform based on some misunderstanding of censorship and the 1st amendment.
This is fantastic, always something majestic and curious about planes. How they fly and where they are going. Kudos!
This is just some dystopian sounding shit, innit? Meta(verse, data, etc.), humans have just sold themselves out.
Beast machines for sure, Apple is doing a good job with their M Series chips. I can't wait for the next Intel commercial, complete meltdown.
The “government can fix it” mentality. A rule set and power grab for the sake of helping the little guy, that don’t really care about to begin with. It’s postering like this that clearly mark two rivals as the opposite side of the same coin.
As a concept this is fine, mainstream will never happen with the current set of societal priorities. It’s not flashy enough, it requires some tinkering, and my friends won’t think it’s cool enough. Unfortunate, because at least in my opinion this is the direction we should all be going.
This really isn’t surprising, the rich and powerful will always be the rich and powerful. The article sheds a little more light on what we have always suspected. This is the game! Everything else are just distractions.
Something like this comes along every so often, hot to trot in its genesis. Typically, experiences it’s exodus, when folks fall back in line.
I wish more people would consider the deletion of facebooks from their lives. It has become the most dangerous form of SkyNet, and most voluntarily hand their lives to them. Nothing worse than idiots attempting to make themselves relevant for no reason other than trying to be relevant.
Expected in all honesty, data these days is a currency to be bartered. I despise facebooks and everything it stands for, I wish people would take themselves more seriously. This need to fill a void with nonsense, is just simply unbecoming. So, suffer the consequences.
This was fun, thank you for putting this together. Please keep going, I look forward to more of it. Apple history is always so fascinating.
It's a start.
Not sure why people are surprised by this anymore. Google is SkyNet, then again most people don’t care. They use the catchphrase, “I got nothing to hide.”, which misses the point entirely.
I am sick of Epic honestly, these companies always feeling entitled to someone else's work. With this fake "level playing field" nonsense. No one is forcing you to use iOS as your delivery platform. Epic is extremely disingenuous in this case, if they don't like it they have all the resources to create their own mobile device and platform.
This is very disheartening, I used instacart quite bit during my time onsite in NYC for a contract. I don't know why these companies have an initial reaction of denying anything happened, when in the end all will find out anyway. More egg on the face, just own it and work to be better.
More fallout from the ineptness of our government I presume. Its forecasts like this that start to mount as we continue the downward trend. Truly a pandemic in every sense.
