It’s more machine now than man. Twisted and evil.

That’s pretty normal, a few years ago I ran into these Brazilian bikers in Argentina and they didn’t speak Spanish or English, so it was really hard to communicate. We (Spanish speakers) really rely on you guys understanding us. I can read Portuguese without much trouble, though, it’s the pronunciation that gets me.
It may not have been your intention but your comment came out dickish. Since your English is so good you should be able to phrase things better.
The US still promotes dictatorships around the world, and in Latin America specifically, while claiming to promote democracy. There isn’t even that much democracy at home.
The narcissist’s prayer definitely applies to the country that elected Trump, as it does to Trump himself.
It’s not that Apple makes amazing stuff, it’s that other companies really put out barely shiny turds.
Look at the zune, the tech was fine, or so I have heard, but it looked like an ugly brick. Seriously, a regular red brick looks better, even a yellow brick does.
I have a Subaru, and while I love it, the infotainment system is garbage. Clearly there was no effort to make it look good and usable.
UX is hugely undervalued, I wonder if one of the reasons is because you don’t notice good UX, it’s not in the way, but you noticed bad UX. So good UX without a lot of marketing is invisible.
In some games storyline matters, in others… not so much. Games with a storyline trend to be less replayable in my experience. One exception I can think of is This War of Mine, that game is really depressing.
Also Terraria is a lot of fun and more replayable than most $70 games.
A lot of those are condos where you get cable and Internet bundles together, and you don’t even have a choice. Others might be getting a bundle but only using the Internet side. I was sick with the first for years.
Immigration is complicated, and you are thinking only of “legal” immigration. It is extremely common for people to ignore those laws. And a job is not always required, no.
You (generic you) don’t need to really emigrate to a country to receive treatment, you could go with a tourist visa or visa free and get treated, then go back to the shitty country without universal healthcare where you live.
In my home country everyone has access to healthcare because it’s a human right, so by law it doesn’t matter what your immigration status is, you will get care. This includes cancer treatment, for free.
You don’t have to be rich, it takes a couple thousand dollars, the problem is to not become homeless afterwards…
Uh, what? Most Catholics aren’t circumcised, that’s an American thing.
Mad at Pepsi? Haha that’s a funny way to put it. He got fired when he butted heads with Sculley, the former PepsiCo president, that he had hired, and the board sided with Sculley.
Giving credit to Apple/NeXT for software made by a different company is creative. The same logic applied to Microsoft makes things interesting.
I’m aware of the history, but I don’t think you understood what I wrote. An app store was written for NeXT by an independent company, without Jobs’ involvement.
Would you give credit to Bill Gates for all windows software written while he was CEO?
Apple did not invent the term “app”, “app store”, or the concept of an app store. There was an app store called App Store for NeXT in 1991 that Jobs knew about, and many similar systems in the intervening years.
The only thing different about Apple’s app store was the restriction on users’ ability to install apps from other sources.
Jobs was great at business, not at tech.
It’s kind of funny how you are wrong in every way.
Thank unions.
The side car says this community is about technology news. I don’t think they should list everything it’s not, but maybe clarify if news about the tech industry are wanted or not.
It’s just the cost of a banana!
For all we know this is their luxury buy of the month.
I did not know the answer so I looked it up. Fiberglass is hard to recycle and it isn’t done much. A lot of nuclear “waste” is actually spent fuel which can be reprocessed and used again.
Obviously it would be better to improve recycling of fiberglass but as it stands today, nuclear waste might be recycled more often than fiberglass…
Legally the output of the training could be considered a derived work. We treat brains differently here, that’s all.
I think the current intellectual property system makes no sense and AI is revealing that fact.
Every smart TV is a dumb TV too. Mine has some smart stuff, I think, but I have never used it, and it has never been online.
