Last time I checked, not wearing a seatbelt didn't cause your car to fail to even start based on weird detection systems that sound like they'll have plenty of false positives. If an airbag is non functional it just shows an indicator and won't pass inspection. ABS can still be turned off.

The average age of a car on the road in the USA is 12 years old. Do you actually think that they will be required to repair this mess of weird sensors for that long? And realistically it should be even longer since that is the average age.

This is unfortunately quite correct. AMD kept releasing Windows 7 drivers a year after Microsoft stopped supporting it, but they dumped support for 8.1 some time ago.

Don't worry, its "coming soon" just like the all new settings menu was soon going to replace the Control Panel in windows 10.

I actually try to avoid anything they make that is consumer facing. Its constant churn and death there and with no big corporate users ready to scream when the rug is pulled there is nothing to stop it.

The UI element thing is horrible. I have a theory that the PMs use the telemetry data to identify which features in the OS people are using. They then destroy these features with redesign because they are being used so much. They probably figure if people like that area they can put their stamp on it and get good numbers. In this way they can most efficiently destroy usability because every time users try to escape the telemetry homing beacon finds their refuge.

Seems like the solution to this would be to use a blimp or blimp/drone combination. Of course then it would be large.

I'd say the main reason there isn't a rush to vaccinate all children is probably that there isn't even a vaccine available for all children.

I don't see them voting to give their H1B indentured servants full citizenship.

With software as a service people can pay monthly to have new bugs introduced to them at a consistent pace, right over the internet.

Shit, half the stuff my doctor tells me is health misinformation.

It can come from money bloated venture capitalists, just like it does now.

Facebook owns the store so I don't see why they don't just delete all of the one star reviews.

I know some people might feel that would damage the integrity of the store's review system, but facebook has no integrity so that shouldn't be a problem.

And now that they've paid 5million in ransom the problem doesn't exist anymore so they can go back to not doing the first two things.

Or you can just turn the drying option off? That's what I do, since its not like I'm in a big hurry to unload the dishwasher (I don't enjoy unloading uncomfortably hot utensils) and it would often just melt things. If I could buy a dishwasher lacking this option I would.

I hand washed dishes for years. It took me a lot of time and used a ton of water. Water I paid to heat. If I did is really quickly then the dishes weren't clean. I also slopped water all over the place but that's probably a personal problem.

As near as I can tell Verizon wanted to compete with other Internet giants like Google and Facebook. Obviously they couldn't just buy those companies. So they looked around and saw there were several dead companies that were similar available. And then they stitched those corpses together into a horrific flesh golem.
