Which leaves what for people in Slashdot's home country who enter the workforce before age 21?

Then let's amend it to an algorithm not fully disclosed to its users. This way chronological can stay common-carrier, but the secret sauce of Facebook and X post ranking becomes editorial.

The day after that bill gets signed, publishers will switch en masse to selling 10-year rentals. With how MMOs and other live service video games routinely get sunset nowadays, users won't notice a difference.

Not if all copies become unusable before the copyright expires. Fires happen.

One could make the same argument to enforce company-wide return to office on grounds that work from home represents lost opportunity for serendipitous conversation around the microwave. If you want Serendipity, look up Stephen Cosgrove.

A tablet with its official keyboard sold separately tends to be more expensive than an entry-level laptop.

Several American public schools are experimenting with making the introduction to computer science course a requirement for high school graduation. (See "Should High Schools Require a CS Course Before Students Graduate?" from July 2023.) If the operating system of a tablet is inadequate for a student to complete a course required for graduation, that makes the tablet less valuable to a high school student.

It wouldn't be oversaturation if any of the stuff they were putting out was any good.

As someone who's been a fan of Peter Parker for 50+ years, I loved what they did with Miles Morales as Spider-Man in the Spider-verse movies. He's a great character, and had a great supporting cast... especially his parents.

While the Spider-verse movies were more cartoony, they were very well-written and incredibly well produced. I'll take more of that over the live action nonsense any day.

When the MCU movies were good, there were at most 3 movies a year, and very few TV shows. But most of the movies were consistently good and a few were amazing. Now it's all bland crap, except for the movies post-"Endgame" that were shielded or mostly shielded from Disney interference: "No Way Home", "Guardians, volume 3" and the Spider-verse movies.

Has Microsoft ever done anything "responsible" in almost 50 years?

I find this headline amusing, given that Microsoft has never done anything responsibly in the almost 50 years it's been around.

Nor is Pillow Python. However, Pillow routinely has significant changes from one major version to the next. Installing a newer version of Pillow than some system package expects could easily break that package. (This is why PEP 668 happened.) Likewise, installing from source a newer major version of a library than some C program expects could break that library.

HTTP has the "If-Modified-Since" request header, which instructs a server to process a request only if the requested document has changed since the provided date. It also has the "If-None-Match" request header, which does the same thing for "ETag" values.

(I did not use the <code> element in this post where the HTML spec states that I should have because Slashdot issued a diagnostic "Filter error: Invalid HTML tag usage".)

I don't understand how C is any different in this way. SDL major versions 1, 2, and 3 all have serious breaking changes.
