That is true for more "recent" times (Roman). But on the evolutionary scale timeframes I don't think that was a factor. I'm not an expert (or an iPhone user) so I might be completely wrong, but probably am 100% correct.
Agreed. Why DO people pay for software? They should be using open source. And no, it isn't "right" to pay $120 for something made for $8 using overseas slave labor.
Not in my experience. Go order a pair of athletic shoes on Aliexpress and tell me how the are any different than the ones sold in the stores. Same thing with purses. It costs $8 to make a pair of shoes that you pay $120 for.
I never understood why people are so intent on "genuine" purses and clothing. The fakes are made in the same factories and by the same people as the real ones. It is all just junk from China.
Why is this a surprise? Any software can *see* what you are doing. That is why you run closed source software at your own risk. You have zero idea what it could be doing. The only closed source software I use is the HOST FILES ENGINE by Apk.
Space Nutters dream of escaping Earth and the common people. Mostly because they think of themselves as superior. I mean after all, they make six figures designing websites and coding stuff. So they MUST be, right?
What planet are you living on? Many of the arresting officers are the same race as the people being arrested. It makes no difference to people who complain about these things. They just claim it is systemic.

Doubtful. The human lifespan was never long enough for it to matter until recently. Most people were dead in their 30s.
Glucose is a type of sugar. How old is your brain?
...they aren't used as much. ZING!
Everyone "requires" a car. Plus a cellphone. Plus a TV...etc.
I've have genuine cases fall apart in a matter of weeks too. It is all just junk from China.
I don't know. Is your $800 purse waterproof? What information do you need? It is a purse, identical in every way to the "genuine" one.

Wait, if that is your "traditional role", where have you been? On vacation? Too busy?

Obviously. No one would lie on the Internet.

Ad blockers are fine, but HOST FILE blockers are better. I found a good one on the Internet. If you want to know more about it, let me know.
Liar. We are the same.
You are kidding right? iPhone 6,7,8,X,Xs. What is the difference between all those models? Nothing. People are dumb, consumers doubly so.
My phone was upgraded today with the new beta and I am enjoying the new speeds. And it was free!
what is it with you nerds and space

Musk nutters are even more annoying than generic Space Nutters. I didn't think that was possible.
No one cares. Can't you guys stick to Electrek and Teslarati?
Exactly. So stop with the race talk.

This really reminds me of that movie, the one about crime in the future. I remember it was called "Judge Dredd" and had Stallone in it.
...once the planet runs out of people why would we need to connect to the Internet?
Sure. Bill Gates has $91,000,000,000 and it increases every year. You figure out the rest.
