Always have been.

In the next protest mods should allow content like porn as another way of protest.

Success is more important than talent. Success pays the bills better.

There was a time when corporal punishment was actively encouraged - Spare the rod and spoil the child.

Right to Sue is a right. Arbitration clause is a contractual obligations.

They should be able to sue regardless of being contractually obliged to seek arbitration. Disney can sue them for violating the terms of the contract later, but nothing should hinder anyone’s right to seek justice.

Lol… Not an American, but stood for democrats theoretical ideologies. But as an outsider it does make sense to put Trump on the presidency again to let him finish the screw up he started his last term.

One of the downfall is the global gag order that comes online about abortiom whenever Republicans win.

My grandma passed away from dementia a couple of years back. My mom has symptoms of ADHD. I am diagnosed with ADHD. The only person in the family to get diagnosed and actively treating with meds and stuff.

I wonder if knowledge and meds can stave of dementia.

Sometimes you need to call out media sensationalism. That barely was a slap. It definitely wasn’t injurious, powerplay maybe, locally it may even be judged playful.

Western sensitivity doesn’t always translate well globally.

You need to start somewhere. Regulation will always lag behind technology. But sooner or later things will get regulated. Once a good number of people are affected by something, rules will be brought in by the people. That’s how democracy works.

These rules are never perfect. Sometimes, to make rules effective, they have to be multilayered (swiss cheese model). But that makes them too expensive to implement. So eventually things end in a compromise where cost and effectiveness balance.

Based if he dodged the Emu War.

TVP. Textured Vegetable Protein

That would have been a mature thing to do.

It would be the same in communism or any political system. Bullies will end up with the most influence.

You missed the entire point. Typical Apple fanboy.

The iphone isn’t at all important to humanity and that’s why it should be regulated. Especially when something so unimportant gets such a large market dominance.

Anyone should be able to buy anything and expect things to be interoperable.

I like the airpods. They don’t work properly on android. Why?

They could easily license out the tech and other companies will pay billions for it. and Apple will get their ROI.

Intel was forced to license x86.

Face it. Apple’s behavior is visibly monopolistic. It wouldn’t have landed on DOJ’s desk if there were no good reason.

All fine and dandy. Kudos to Apple for the innovation! But then they decided to keep it strictly inside Apple.

That’s not how communication works. Imagine if Bell kept the telephone to themselves… Oh wait… They tried… Got sued for it… Company broke up and the whole world got interoperable telephone system that is alive to this day.

Innovation is great, capitalizing on innovation is also great. But eventually it needs to reach everyone and the answer cannot be “then everyone should buy Apple”.

Imagine if DARPA kept the Internet as “Americans only”

You can use a bridge network or the host network.

In bridge network it is like a NAT host. With its own firewall settings.

In host network mode, it will just open the port it needs.

Completely on point. I am an engineer. If I were to self inflict gunshots, I would 100% design a contraption that would shooot multiple times. Need to make sure.

Also need to hide this contraption while I am in the dying process. To make sure people know it was self inflicted.

Just two? Rookie numbers.

A terrible coincidence, indeed.

That’s why we need to hit peak oil fast. It will be a definitive fuck you to oil.
