In Italy it’s illegal to raise the price if you are using a credit card. The price needs to be the same no matter the payment method

Here goes to hoping that EU massages Whatsapp third party compatibility actually works. It would be great if Signal decided to enter the program, so that I could start recommending it to friends and family as a full on replacement, while not losing the ability to communicate with those who use WhatsApp.

I understand Signal stance, but it would honestly be better to have a mainstream alternative to Whatsapp that actually cares about privacy, rather than a niche product nobody uses

Don’t despair! If we keep at it for long enough, we might destroy the AMOC (Atlantic Current), which might mean much lower temperature in Europe and North America, and much higher temperatures in the equator.

So you might not see snow in winter, but you’ll probably get ice sheets in New York and Paris

You can have a theory that is not corroborated by an empirical experiment.

Average ml user

Apparently they are adding more actions with time. At some point maybe I’ll be bothered to try it again

You’re meant to break ziti or candele, you don’t cook them as if they were spaghetti

Wait, 10th anniversary?? WTF, I’m old

Do you want to build a computer or a brand new computer? And no, most PCs are not thrown away because all components inside stopped working. It’s usually either because they’re too slow for the user or just one component broke and the user was incapable of fixing the problem and opted to get a new faster machine instead.

If I were CEO, I’d cut/sell any part of the business that doesn’t directly support CPU and GPU sales, which is basically what Intel is doing.

That’s pretty much what they did. They sold off most of the “other” stuff, like their modem division, shut down their SSD division, sold part of Mobileye shares in the IPO, and reportedly Intel is looking to sell part of Altera, their FPGA division.

So many electronics are thrown out every day, that I’d wager you could find everything you need in just a day. The biggest issue is that they throw things in dumpsters, rather than gently putting them there, which tends to break electronics. But then again there’s so much garbage you could probably find ten of every component and see what works

I have an oven that’s also a microwave and can also cook with a special pan. It’s also smaller than a normal oven, so it’s closer to an air fryer and heats up really quickly

The mac I plug into my work center via a single usb-c connection which charges it, connects it to my external monitor, and connects it to all of my USB equipment

I do this with my Dell, which also has many ports ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thing is, the universe is really really really fucking big and old. There might have been a million other super advanced societies throughout the universe space and throughout the universe life, but the chances of us knowing about them would still be negligible.

There are tens of billions of planets just in the milky way, most of them probably at least 5 billion years old. And there are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe, if not trillions. The nearest one is 25,000 light years away. Do the math.

The chances of life existing elsewhere are pretty much 100%. The chances of us ever knowing about it are pretty much 0%.

Yelling dakadakadaka while going back and forth would be hilarious

I think it has more to do with being readable on small screens, like mobile phones. It still doesn’t make sense to me to completely remove your logo and replace it with a sans serif name of your company like jaguar just did.

EoL of anything should mean open source code. You don’t want to open source your code? Then you must keep servicing your products and must keep your servers up

You can do it in a multitude of ways. The French for instance elect their president by voting twice, the first time they vote for their favorite candidate (and the parliament), the second time they vote for either of the two candidates that got the most votes (a run off)

There are other ways, like ranked voting, or you could look up parliamentary republics for an alternative form of government.

Read up on what happens in the rest of the world, at this point, we, as a human species, have tried pretty much everything

The concept of sick days is fucking ridiculous
