    yeah, almost pathetic.

    After emojis and animojis, yet another spec few people really care about: color - actually I could care, but since the thing needs a protection case [ otherwise it breaks like thin ice ] the "color" is not visible.

    NZ, a western country that's a vassal of the USA

    Doens’t work like that. Some countries don’t extradite their own citizens like France and Germany, in this case he probably was safer in his own Germany. NZ: Kim is probably targetted by an international arrest warrant, and NZ just obeys international rules.

    Or maybe go to North Korea, his name would have granted him some privileges for sure.

    +1. Making a lot of noise around the release of a few non-vital seconds of that show smells desperate publicity.

    Are these people jerking off while watching that kind of picture? They really need to get a life.

    "Surfait" in French would fit nicely.

  17. Give this thing a chance on Microsoft Details Secret 'Pocketable' Surface Device (theverge.com) · · Score: 2

    Make it able to run Linux.

  18. "Surface" is what used to be IE for a long time, that eventually became "edge". Surface? They better chose a different name if that device is really going to be "new and disruptive".

  19. This is not the point here. The point is that the above-mentioned companies lure you into accepting to provide your personal information and to allow them to use and handle your data.

  20. I just can't believe that companies like Microsoft or Facebook or Google would ever do anything underhanded or manipulative!

    and don't forget TV, supermarkets, etc... basically everywhere

  21. Google Photos on an iPhone copies your photos to Google servers, then the app offers to "Delete photos from your device to free up space? They have been safely backed up to your Google account" ; doing so makes you even more dependent on Google.

  22. It's a Calculation problem on We May Be All Alone In the Known Universe, a New Oxford Study Suggests (fortune.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    As long as we don't have the right estimation of the probability that life exists on a planet, we cannot really assess if life exists or no. Now given the gigantic (known) number of galaxies containing a gigantic number of stars, even if that life probability is low, that would be quite a stretch to conclude life exists only on Earth.

  23. For that we don't use google earth, we use all the hidden web cams around you.
