    People can try to push those old jokes all they want, but the fact is that Apple did remove the standard 3.5mm headphone jack and they did call it "courage". If the technology to replace something is of lower quality than what it replaces, I don't call it "courage" I call it "stupidity".

    Maybe Opera are partners with the 3.5mm headphone jack and this is retaliation for Apple's courage.

    Fixed that for you.

  6. Before anyone replies with "bullshit", let's do some basic math:

    Assuming UBI of ~$1000 per month (which would be a lot), 1 million dollars divided by $1000 per month equals 1000 months, divided by 12 months equals 83 years and 4 months.

  7. Someone who earns a million dollars every year is extremely rich.

    A one-time million dollars payment would set me for life, and I'm in Canada.

    And how do you do "millions of dollars worth of sales each year"? How can a single individual make so much money? There's a problem with that. Somebody in your supply chain is getting royally screwed so that you can get so much profit.

    Your "hard earned" money is nothing of the sort. There's only 365 days in a year, 24 hours in each one. There's people out there working 60+ hours weeks and they'll never earn even a fraction of what you make.

    That one person can earn that much is a problem. That you think it's "hard-earned" is another problem.

    Netflix in the rest of the world is a sad sad shadow of what they provide in the USA.

    There is such a thing as free money, rich people are proof of it. Nobody's job is worth millions every year.

    Netflix is available worldwide. HBO? Not so much, so fuck them.

  15. Of course it's fresh! It was packaged and frozen right after it was picked!

    Is Chrome pre-installed by default on Android? I'm guessing yes, but as far as I know Android's marketshare is much lower than all others combined.

    TV users are stupid rich motherfuckers who are dumb enough to pay for overpriced crap. A TV subscription should require an internet subscription and internet-cutters should lose their TV subscription. Unlike internet access which is a basic need in modern society, TV subscription is a luxury.

    Not really. My Netflix monthly fees goes directly towarding funding TV shows and movies.

    You're the asshole who's still overpaying for cable instead of helping Netflix fund more TV shows and movies.

  19. Re:This is going to end well lol on Bitcoin Surges 10% To All-Time High Above $2,700, Has Now Doubled in May (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Money is limited, but Bitcoin is currently dividable to 8 decimals, unlike say the U.S. dollar which is only divisible to 2 decimals.

    We could get to the point where 1 satoshi equals 1 U.S. cent in market/trading value, so there's a long way to go before you can say "money is limited" when talking about Bitcoin.

  20. First, if you bought that $100 worth of Bitcoin back in 2010 it's unlikely that you would even still have it today. It probably would have been stolen by now. Is there even a Bitcoin exchange that's been in business for any significant amount of time and hasn't suddenly run off with everyone's money, or, got "hacked" and "lost" all their Bitcoin?

    If you left that $100 worth of Bitcoins on an exchange all that time, you're an idiot. If it was kept inside a wallet controlled by your own computer, you'd still have them.
