Streaming is already too complicated for me. In the internet age, I don't really pay a service to get me TV shows I pay them to broker the access to those shows. If it falls on me to shuffle my subscriptions around and plan to watch what where, then they're not really doing me much of a service.
Normally when it comes to comics, the original story WAS created out of passion. The movie is usually as successful as they stay true tot he original stories, because if they diverge then they suck everything out of it.
I made a very similar comment below. I just want to keep it simple. I don't want a battery in every single thing I own. One that will probably be at 50% capacity in two years and dead in four. Talk about making my life complicated.
I have a hard enough time finding a set of regular wired headphones that I like. I'm not putting myself through that pail for something that works on 2% of my devices (conservative estimate). Anyone who removes the headphone port is an idiot. It seems that audio quality is getting the back seat these days; at one time we had portable music devices. Now that went away because everyone started to use their phones and the phones are forcing us to go to bluetooth so there goes the best path for audio.
Yellow vests are the new French Revolution, maybe we need more over here. Heck I bet if they tried hard enough they could even shut the government down.... oh wait.
Please explain what power they are gaining over their citizens by forcing all of them to be more knowledgeable and informed when they purchase products? What is the evil motivation? I'm dying to hear it, because it seems to me that a government with plans to rule with abuse would want their citizens less informed, not more informed.
It's simple, all manufacturers will do this, and the customer can walk or ride a bicycle if they don't like it. Isn't that how all "progressive" technology works?
Oh christ. I'm not saying we need to delete the internet. I'm saying now that companies are making a shitload of money off of it, maybe they should give a bit of effort towards making it as safe as possible.
It's not a problem that a country wants to make sure its citizens are fully informed before buying a product, get over it already. *GASP* oh no they'll have to click a few times and... READ! I can see why the Americans in the crowd are revolting.

Nope it has been long proven that Apple didn't need the space.
I realize the battery doesn't apply to USB-C port, but why touch the jack that works?

I just bought two wireless charging pads from Costco for $18. How many of these can I get for $18?
The word 'parking' implies that the vehicle was driven there. Or does everyone stop at the curb and carry their scooter to the on-sidewalk parking?
Are they driving on the sidewalk?
Why would anyone think it was ok to ride a motorized vehicle on the sidewalk?
This doesn't answer my question.
The trouble with putting AI in robots is how do you get them to stop wanting to commit suicide?

If he's trying to "scare" the 90% by getting rid of the lowest performing 10% then yeah, absolutely he is.

This has become the standard way for corporations to celebrate huge success.
I'm hoping this will change things, but I'm prepared for another slap on the wrist.
Owch.

But is it wrong to say that they should be doing a hell of a lot better?
I'm not asking for perfection. The UI can still be messed up so it's not perfect.
"All modern systems have security holes" and they shouldn't. It's that simple. If that doubles the cost of software then so be it.
If software companies can't prevent zero day exploits then they shouldn't be releasing internet facing software.
