  1. Re:Other networks give more GB's at full speed som on Project Fi Creates Its Own Version of An Unlimited Plan (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Xfinity. It would charge you $24 for that.

  2. Re:It's Not The Cheapest, But It Is The Fairest on Project Fi Creates Its Own Version of An Unlimited Plan (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't get it. Tmobile doesn't have any small print and hidden charges. It is $45 a month, unlimited. Includes Netflix. $26 sounds great, but who only uses 400MB data a month? 10-13GB is more typical. That would be $120 a month with Fi I guess, except they cap it

    Or people who travel overseas and don't want to get charged extra.

    I don't get it. T-Mobile offers unlimited everything for $45 a month. International included. How much more straightforward can the pricing be? Paying per GB is not very straightforward at all.

  5. Re:How about just paying their f*@king taxes? on Apple Says It Will 'Contribute' $350 Billion in the US Economy Over the Next 5 Years (cnbc.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Who cares about "illegal"? This is Apple. They claim to be good global citizens. Meanwhile they are using slave labor to build their products and actively trying to avoid paying taxes. So they need to drop the whole SJW, good company act. Hypocrites.

  6. The only ARM chip that is vulnerable to Meltdown is the not yet released A75 (co-designed by intel). Meltdown is an Intel bug.

  7. Re:Always recording? on Google Home and Chromecast Could Be Overloading Your Home Wi-Fi (theverge.com) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It is sending whatever the Google programmers want it to. Your conversations. Your data. Whatever they decide. And they can update it at any time to change whatever they want it to send to them. And you paid $99.

  8. You mean "illegal taxi service" right? I don't care if people use these services, I am on the side of the taxi companies! They provide such great service.

  9. Re:What good does that do? on The Astronomer Who Is Building the Largest Map of Space by Volume (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    What the heck? Is this AI? Gibberish.

  10. Not possible on The Human Cost of the Apple Supply Chain Machine (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 5, Informative

    Apple isn't able to produce phones that sell for only $1,000 without slave labor. They only have $231 billion of cash on hand. Think of the children of the Apple executives.

  11. Re:The current decade has always been the worst on Is Pop Music Becoming Louder, Simpler and More Repetitive? (bbc.co.uk) · · Score: 2

    I remember (popular) 80s music being worse than the 70s. I also remember 90s music being better than the 80s. I remember music after that being terrible. There is a reason the 70s bands are still touring and the 80s ones aren't.

    Well Musk really needs to start reading the comments section here. Space factories and asteroid dust are important components for interplanetary spaceships.

    Mars is a bit farther, but once we build our space factories and mine our asteroid dust we will be ready to go to Mars.

    I was born Muslim. No need to convert. I already know.

    This will be good practice for SpaceX's crewed trip to Mars in 2024. We truly live in exciting times!

  19. Re:I wish they were still trying on 10 Years of the MacBook Air (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    What kind of innovation? There has been no innovation in the computer space for a long time. Processors are marginally faster then they were when the Air was first introduced. This 10 year old computer is roughly equivalent to what you can get now.

    I need to hear this one: where in the Middle East did "a lot of of the CO2 come from"?

  21. This makes sense. All technology trends continue indefinitely. Look at Moore's Law: it has been going strong for 30 years now and will never end!

  22. You are right. Running closed source in general is pretty insane. It could be doing anything and you would have no clue.

  23. The amazing part is that someone actually runs a closed source virus suite from a Russian vendor. Insane.
