Well, at first I wondered if you had a financial incentive to see Tesla or all EV's in general fail, but I'm now more convinced the GP called it earlier - you're a kid.
Every time I open Firefox and restore my previous session I have to hunt through all my windows and pause every YouTube video that auto-plays when I'm bombarded by a wall of noise.
At least they don't background-load tabs when restoring any more. That's something.
Odd that you chose the word "purchase" in your statement. Do you think it's ok to make a copy of someone else's work and sell it, for profit, just because the original is difficult to obtain?
No, no I do not. Note the word I used right before "purchase".
One of my good friends collects vintage games, with NES being his #1 passion. He has legitimately purchased many cartridges over the past 10 years.
I'm not trying to defend Nintendo but I cannot defend someone that makes money by selling or giving away ROMs (because it's highly unlikely they don't turn a profit from the ad revenue).
Good, and you shouldn't. Of course there's no way NES games should still be within copyright protection in any jurisdiction, but that's a battle for another day.
By your logic we should have the occasional mass shooting because that is much easier for emergency responders to deal with than individual shootings peppered across the country.
That got me thinking of scales... what if "slow" isn't a problem. What if we encounter beings with metabolism rates which are 100 000 slower or faster than ours? Would we be able to recognize it as life? Which other dimensions could scale so that we wouldn't recognize it?
Exactly.
For beings with much slower metabolisms the universal speed of light wouldn't be as much of a limitation to interstellar travel, since they would perceive time more slowly, so could in theory establish functional societies on multiple worlds.

Yup pretty much the same, or Viber or Zoom, here. Skype just isn't on the radar any more.
sssh, do you want them to get bought up too?
It isn't. We need to shut these parasites down.
My wife disagrees - ten percent of the time.
That is all.
True, but now that Ford have publicly committed to tossing that amount down the toilet, it will give smaller companies a better chance at competing.

No they're not, no they don't, and yes, it would be if it were true.
This.

I think you'll find the decline started well before that, back when they ousted THE GUY WHO INVENTED JAVASCRIPT over some stupid SJW non-issue.
So, if I'm parsing that headline correctly:
Elon Musk called the boss of Tesla a "troll who's heavily invested in the oil industry".
Cool story.
Let me just look up who the boss of Tesla is... ...oh
...and then wants to search you for any photos you might have taken of their art installation.

Cool. So show us where we can purchase those ROMs legitimately.
Thanks.
Pretty sure they were selling books before they were selling clouds.
I still get my news via RSS.
Simple, really. If a site doesn't support it, I don't support them.
That's pretty much how loyalty cards and chance-to-win surveys work.
I gotta go to bed.
YouTube doesn't recognize the Public Domain?
Shut them down now.
I see where you're going with this.

Got it.
I now buy power strips with better spacing, specifically to accommodate power bricks.
Problem solved.
Yeah, well Amazon wants a lot of things.
Anyone remember when they were just an online bookstore?
Mind you we at /. were probably too busy laughing at the Iraqi Information Minister at that time.
Never saw that coming.
Not at all.

Not for long, evidently.
