That would be an antitrust violation, which is already illegal...

Avoiding taxes is both legal AND ethical. Not doing so IS unethical.

This is cool, but by no means unique. I got a free ruler from Adafruit years back with an order. Similar to this one, but less specific to Nvidia...

Come on. It did NOT originate in the private sector. Private lenders upped their lending to COMPETE with the GSEs: https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2010/06/did-fannie-and-freddie-cause-the-housing-bubble/57664/ It's fine trying to Monday morning quarterback almost a decade later...

Are you implying that presidents can unilaterally appeal laws? That's... not how it works. For all his faults, Bush tried to rein in Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/11/business/new-agency-proposed-to-oversee-freddie-mac-and-fannie-mae.html?referer= A choice quote...

Wut? Have you ever run a business?

Look at all the innovation that's happened without the benefit of NN regulations. Now when it's suggested that we go back to that status quo of two years ago, it's LITERALLY THE HOLOCAUST. Millennials...

Hence 'Net Neutrality' sells better than 'Government Regulation of the Internet'. The low-info set can't be bothered with details.

How does scaling up negate anything? The purpose of higher resolution isn't "to get more stuff on the screen". Even scaled, you still get the benefit of the higher resolution screen.

Maybe don't use journalists as a source of modern societal wisdom? Is there a more biased person, on average, than a journalist?

Fair enough, my friend, but we'll have to agree to disagree. In my mind, it's easy to see when something is influenced by modern progressivism, so calling it out as such is not knee-jerk, or whining in my book. There's a nasty strain of authoritarianism running through today's leftists, and...

Does it need to happen everyday for it to be something to fear? I grew up in Detroit. If you don't think there are places in this country where people have a legit reason to fear for their safety on a daily basis, you truly lead a charmed life.

So do you reckon objecting to almost being thrown in jail for posting pictures of your toys counts as "whining"?

Fortnite is nice in that respect, as you get to spectate the player that killed you. I was in a game in top 6,and I immediately witnessed the eventual winner shooting through haystack, and go on to kill the last 4 by auto-aiming and shooting through solid objects and hillsides.

Not every job can be "high pay and high skill". What's wrong with factory jobs?

How bad do you reckon things would be if Google did their books by hand?

Alternate headline: ”Woman has service canceled after not paying her bill" Astonished that this is a news story...

Also from your link: "Apple's iTunes accounted for 3 percent of peak download traffic in 2015, finishing in a multi-way tie for fourth place with Amazon Video, BitTorrent, Hulu, and Facebook." Bittorrent uses the same amount of bandwidth as two other major streaming services and the world's...

By your own logic, iTunes is a "fringe" service. Try this link: https://betanews.com/2017/04/13/millennials-pirate-streams/ If you can't, the punchline is this : "A survey conducted by LaunchLeap (and shared by TorrentFreak) shows that over half of millennials (53 percent) enjoy streaming...

You're gonna have to do better than vague anecdotes. https://torrentfreak.com/millennials-regularly-stream-pirated-content-survey-finds-170412/ By any definition, it is not fringe.

You think piracy is "fringe"? http://news.sky.com/story/game-of-thrones-season-7-pirated-more-than-a-billion-times-11024050 Nothing that happens over a billion times is fringe.

I'll take a Logitech thumb-trackball over 99% of the consumer mice on the market. I've used them since they were introduced. For accuracy and comfort in everyday applications, they can't be beat. The only reason I use a mouse is because I play PUBG and other shooters, and gaming mice are just...

... and if you have a NAS using Storage Spaces, you won't be able to expand your storage.

The base itself is many miles in from the border of the larger Nellis Air Force Range (where Area 51 resides). Even if it weren't taken down by other means, a drone wouldn't make it anywhere near before the battery crapped out.

Right, because if there's anything we can say about government regulation of a service or technology, it's that it always results in lower prices...

... until you say something online that your Elite Betters disagree with.

Not to mention, WE pay those fees.

It's a cash grab, nothing more.

"This item will be released on December 31, 2018." Wow, that's quite a pre-order window...

Nice! 1 and 2 are mindless, fun hack n slash. I've been hoping 3 was on the way soon.

Allegedly...

Watch the local news clip at the link. This particular plant apparently has a history of safety violations, and 2 workers were also killed by a press in the early 90's.

I, for one, am happy that my entertainment choices aren't limited by what you feel comfortable with your young kids watching. This is why services like Netflix HAVE parental controls. You sound like a good dad, and that's excellent - we need more of those - but don't presume to try to...

Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. Apple's heart is in the right place, I'm sure, but if you're poor and desperate and living in squalor in China, wouldn't you see this as a potential jackpot and "encourage" your child to work for an Apple contractor?

In a few decades 3D will be a fad again. It's cyclical.

So because they're rolling it into the Find My The Apple Phone utility, no software that has the same functionality is allowed to exist? Fuck these Apple Nazis.

Lame explosion jokes. How timely and original!

http://www.theverge.com/2015/7/15/8964995/reddit-free-speech-history Let's not pretend that Reddit didn't regularly use the "Free Speech" tag to their benefit, and had stated so publicly on multiple occasions. To be honest, I don't really care either way, because I completely agree with you...
