Can't we make a very similar point about voting at the ballot box?
"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
If you want to take the weirdness a step further, just look at the plural for "woman". When you write "women" you only change the second vowel, but when you pronounce that same word you only change the first.
Franklin was talking about freedom of the local government to tax, as in "those who surrender their right to decide who gets taxed, merely to obtain some money for immediate defence, risk losing both their political…
And then you have to reach the x/c/v which is right of the command key. Your thumb would move to the left, your index finger moves over it to the right, and thereby your thumb indeed gets rolled under your palm.
That is quite an angle you are describing, forcing you to roll your thumb under your palm exactly like Apple says you shouldn't do in its Mac Ergonomics document. Resting your pinky naturally on control is quite easy…
You may want to point your ire at the right parties, because that is not a GDPR demand.
I would also question the reliability of the sources. Who said so? Are they comparing the right numbers? For example, in 2021 Twitter didn't report monthly users, but "monetisable daily active users", a metric that Musk…
Please elaborate, because sibling comment explained exactly what you have missed.
If you think that something extremely basic seems something that is hard to grasp for other people, it's usually because you're misunderstanding the situation, not because other people are failing to grasp the extremely…
Macs are model of PCs of a specific brand that closes their PCs down. Continuing to treat Macs as different from other PCs is exactly what lifts scrutiny if they decide to implement notarisation on MacOS. "After all,…
A typo? Twice in the same post? In both places where "he" would normally appear? Localized entirely within your kitchen?
The latter, obviously, and that is what's happening with the Digital Omnibus.
Because that is the joke.
Electing a dictator because you like their policies does not change the fact that you end up in a dictatorship. Likewise, having voted for a corporation that takes away freedoms does not make your opinion relevant: you…
What you want is not relevant, because you have no choice. Apple depriving you of that choice may not inconvenience you, but you are still being deprived of that freedom in the first place. I suspect 100% of iPhone…
About a decade ago I worked at a water consultancy company (of which Thames Water happened to be a client) to build a catalogue website for pipe condition assessment technologies. Already at the time that I was building…
I wouldn't mind a subtle HUD if I need to find my way to some place. Sure beats having to peer at my phone. Otherwise... Eh. I don't care enough. Yet.
He's a "Growth Engineer" from ElevenLabs. I'm not sure what that entails, but then I'm not familiar with that area of tech, so maybe someone else can explain it.
Why one would pay for such a privilege? Because it's the latest new gadget and it's very convenient and its users don't experience any immediate negatives of using it. That's how people will happily let you get away…
I am curious, do you have the same anxieties about car drivers using maps applications to navigate?
You'd first have to make proprietary changes, which you are not allowed to release, and so there's nobody to sell those services to.
I usually just blurt out "cassis", a blackcurrant soda. I for one don't care about which brand. Does that count?
The parent comment is not making a causal claim. They're pointing out a double standard: "Anyone arguing this is about childhood IQ and wouldn’t similarly ban (not stop mandating, ban) soft drinks, chips and fast food…
A lot of slang comes from street language, so that thought may still be right. :) It's a decades old word that used to mean trying to one up someone with tough talk, exaggerating, topping someone. That talk would be so…
