This should not be modded down, it is actually the truth. I don't think I can blame people for not being interested in Captain Marvel either... it's not a superhero name most people are familiar with.
Neither was the black panther and look what it did.
in one of the animated superman movies, Lex Luther was told by his scientists they found the cure for cancer. Lex said to see if they can spread the cure into a lifetime of treatments (or something similar). as greedy as the pharmaceutical companies are, who is to say it is not being done now with some diseases.
Years ago, I read a fictional story about how a common cold vaccination caused more horrific diseases. It turned out the common cold was the bodies way of combating other more terrifying diseases and with vaccinations, the body lost its weapon.
Sometimes I wonder if the story could be right regarding vaccination in general seeing how we are seeing more and more new and old diseases cropping up.
amazon is around a trillion dollar company. I will be walking down a street with one of those robots, maybe if it tripped me or run over my foot, I can get some of their cash...accidents happen:-)
If they do this then goodbye all Chromium based browsers that implement this and hello Firefox - and any browsers that fork from that...
Sorry (not sorry) but my ability to block evil crud that pollutes my browsing and can potentially infect my devices is more important to me.
tend to agree. I consider blocking ads the same as removing sales inserts from newspapers before reading. we should not be forced to read or look at them.
since a lot of the ads blocked are doubleclick and other google owned marketing properties, then, imo, this is more about google's bottomline than about security.
I just cancelled my subscription. that price hike was nothing but greed. they just stopped in-app purchases that saved them around 250 million dollars a year, they are losing disney shows, and too many show I am interested in is in another language. Just not worth it anymore. Fortunately some shows are on amazon prime and other streaming services.
I decided to cancel now instead of waiting the three months current subscribers are getting at the old rate because I would either forget or decide to keep it - which is what netflix wants.
this is just another way to collect data - now includes those who pay in cash. one thing for sure, it will make checking out a whole lot slower if you have to type or voice your email address. It means you could also be forced to sign up for some type of loyalty cards. so just say no and ask for paper.
too bad the study did not include why the fake news was shared. I think the results would surprise the researchers. Just because news was shared does not mean it was believed.
the weather channel is embedded in so many different webpages, operating systems, and non-weather apps that you gave permission to share data with, I am wondering how do they know this is a weather channel app problem?
since users found that apple was secretly throttling their phones causing problems on purpose it was bound to happened. getting the battery replace is just so much cheaper for a perfectly good phone. besides iphones are just too expensive to replace yearly now.
he was able to prove tickets were being written for those who legally pass through the lights. This means the city was going to lose money and the camera company was going to lose money too if changes were made. They had to do what they could to discredit and shut him up. It did not work.
age has nothing to do it. When I was in high school, we did not even have calculators. we did have mechanical adding machines. computers were big old mainframes and had to keypunch cards for it to read. Now my apartment is nothing but tech - alexa, google home, computers, tablets and more. so could I live without my smartphone, maybe but as I said in another post, as long as I had my tablet. need something for two factor authorization and read my newspaper subscriptions:-)

Not sure if thief is on the rise or just more security in the workplace :-)
just a side note, Years ago when I worked at walmart, more employees got fired for stealing than shoplifters caught.

could it be?? Is the world slowly returning to hieroglyphs??

I wonder which government officials used them.
so I wonder how many other google products have hidden microphones??? what about their mesh router?
actually it was the worse year for smartphone prices. if the prices were reasonable, they would have been no problems with shipments.

If you are on company time, if you are using company property, then you should only be doing company business.

how is this any different from the big retailers like kroger and walmart? and some of them even allow third party sellers on their website.
too bad the study did not include why the fake news was shared. I think the results would surprise the researchers. Just because news was shared does not mean it was believed.
If I needed to use the pumps and it was blocked, I would park in front of the truck so it cannot move. can't help it if the batteries died.
think how many more Amazon would sell if it was sold at Walmart. You cannot even order it from them online. Walmart does sell Google Home.

he just did not want to get booed off stage.

he was really thanking congress for helping him secure an extremely high paying job for when he leaves government service.
