Honestly, skipping commercials was one of the reasons why anyone gives a damn about YouTube TV. And now Alphabet just shot it's self in the junk to appease the ad men that everyone already hates. Good job.
Funny thing too, because I remember how Obama's stimulus plan was supposed to go towards this sort of issues. Although where I lived the money my town got for it was all spent on replacing the fully functional street lamps with new ones that looked nicer and a bike land literally no one has ever used due to being in rural Mississippi.
And also hydro only provides about 6% of US power and 7% comes from all renewable technology due to the limitations in the technology that keep it from being an option anytime soon. So basically you're stuck with either burning hydrocarbons or nuclear power. Pick wisely.
Ahh, right. Read the wrong chart originally. But even so hydrocarbon burning fuels are still used in about 67% of US power production. You can probably thank the rise of natural gas fraking for the drop in coal use.
Yes because it's totally logical that industry is going to completely retool their existing factories at trillions of dollars of cost to make older less efficient machines that not just pollute more but need more energy to run.
I case you didn't pay ANY attention to the election that entire point was one of President Trump's talking points. The fact that we shifted almost all of modern industry to China and India.
Well just so you know the problem here isn't coal, it's the fact that neither China nor India use any air crubbing technology at all in their power plants. Unlike power plants in the US. Which is why even through most of US power is made by coal we don't have nation wide air quality issues.
But hey, go right a head and whine about the environment instead of actually doing something. I'm sure that'll make it all better.
Honestly not to be too cynical here, but this entire article feels like this. Someone complaining about the tech industry boiled down to it's lowed common demonstrator instead of talking about exact circumstances where this is a problem.
To take an example I think a lot of us can agree that trying to fund the AAA title Deus Ex: Mankind Divide was just a terrible idea from Square Enix and in fact a perfect example of really bad crowd funding that fits this guy's narrative. But as a counter there's hundreds if not thousands of small publishers that put out smaller projects that definite greatly from crowd funding. To take another gaming example I'd point at HareBrained Schemes and their Shadowrun and upcoming Battletech title. Both of which were made possible by crowd funding mile stones like this.
So I guess Edge is just like any other MS browser. The browser you only use when you need to see if your connect is still on or if it's just a problem with the page.
Honestly, is there anyone that does actually use the Edge browser? I don't, since I avoid 10 like the plague that it is. My CO, who did a review of it, just apsolutly hated it. It worked fine out of the proverbial box, but had next to no plug-in support. Like any ab blocks are enhance cookie management for privacy.
Well then what the hell do you do with your smart phone? Out side of a weather map and a notepad program anything of real merit I need do with a computer I can do way better from there in less time than trying to do it on my phone.
Ehh, no thanks. I loath the entire new design of Windows for one. And I've been too badly burned to trust a Microsoft hardware product again personally, as listening to my room mate throw her own phone against the way in frustration kind of really confirms that decision.
I don't know if it's just me, but the more crap they try to add onto a Smart Phone the less utility I found out of it. Any real work I need to do I just can't do on a phone. And I'm too busy to bother with any of the crappy games I can get for it. I don't need a fitness tracker. I don't need social media AT ALL.
Well no, but I have listen to my roommate SCREAMING at how much she hates her Windows Phone due to how bad she HATES IT.
Why the hell is it that someone mentions how bad a Microsoft product is some idiot tries to bring up some vague feature no one every uses a justification as to why they're gear isn't shit. Honestly, in what fantasy world does it matter that you can dick around with your contacts better? Is that all you do all day? Dick around with your contact lists and SMS over Bluetooth? Because I can't think of a single feather that matters LESS than SMS contacts and Bluetooth capability.
I find all of these voice command software packages to be a complete waste of time. Almost everything that I can do by voice I can do faster and easier with just my hands on the screen.
But then again I don't keep my face stuck in my smart phone all day. Mobile games are a garbage, mobile media is a joke, and there's thing productivity wise that you can do one a phone that you can do faster and better on a real computer.
Of course MS is going to 'try' to bring this to Android phones. No one is buying the Windows phones, do they have to try to get their spyware into your system anyway they can.
They do not need to make then, but they could. Plans are all over the internet.
That requires a supply chain and a manufacturing base. Eastern Syria has neither.
So you're telling me that a terrorist army that can smuggle firearms and even heavy arms across multiple national boards is suddenly going to have trouble bringing in a few cheap drone and component in?

And this is also why piracy will continue.

That's pretty much what everyone in town said too.

Probably pretty similar in China too. Especially construction dust given just how insane the construct boom has been out there.

Reality isn't an episode of Captain Planet son.

Uhh, no. Most of the US manufacturing capacity was shifted to China decades ago.

Just as an FYI the total number of deaths from every single cause in the US is about 2.5 million per year.
Let me see... you have a giant stack of stack of lithium ion batters on wheels, you crash it, and it explodes. How is this a surprise?
