I use 480p on a 17" desktop monitor and it's almost good enough. Are you telling me anything over 480p on a freakin' 5" phone display makes any difference?
This would make a great introduction for a parody of Logan's Run mixed with the style of Idiocracy and the concept of Fallout Shelter. All civilization collapses and the only people left are the ones in the Amazon Shelters.
+1 insightful, I was about to post the same thing. If the setting is called "Tailored experiences with diagnostic data" then obviously the "off" setting is going to be the dimmed bulb.
I still don't understand how users would be "worth" $4/month in the first place. If the internet was free and devices were free too, I couldn't complain.
But right now, advertisting companies should be paying users to display ads on their devices. It's our bandwidth, our monthly quotas, our devices.
Instagram is estimated to be worth more than $100 billion [...] The photo-sharing platform, which reached 1 billion monthly active users earlier this month...
So someone is estimating that each and every Instagram user is worth 100 US dollars?
Also, requiring ASCII doesn't prevent scammers. slashdot.org and sIashdot.org are both in ASCII character only.
Let's return to ASCII-only URLs and have the browsers display the subdomain, domain name and the TLD in uppercase and have them use a constant font across all platforms that makes it impossible to mistake an uppercase letter "O" with the number "0" (zero).

What's wrong with the neat "Please active Windows" watermark anyway? It's like a friend, always there for you!
Yes sir immediately, I will call Bob and Mova for help, please hold.

They should rename themselves AT&T&T: American Twitter & Telephone & Telegraph.
i.e. it's free if you pay more!
So basically... AT&ATs? Sounds like a great way to increase their Empire.

Amazon wants you to start a business to deliver its packages
Amazon wants you to turn your Fire tablet into a portable Echo
Next up:
Amazon wants you to start sending them your paychecks directly
Can they really afford it? I mean, they're already replacing warehouse workers with expensive robots just to stay profitable!
Well, what did you expect? You're the one who ordered a sack of bricks from Amazon!
Does it affect "anything that has RAM" or does it have to be a specific type of RAM?
Ex: is the RAM inside an ATmega328P affected by this security problem?
And what's the deal with airplane peanuts?

I wish people would stop paying ads for Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, yes.

WTF is wrong with wall street?
But would anyone be able to get a certificate with a look-alike domain name signed to the name "Microsoft Corp." or similar?
