No one is forcing you to use the alternative app stores.

It seems highly likely that larger developers like Epic would do that thing if the ruling were different.

People are mad at Apple, but the only actual solution is to separate stores/distribution from developers and prohibit exclusivity agreements. Developers don't want that either, they just have a personal battle with Apple and are pretending to have moral high-ground. So they got what they deserved.

According to apple, anything that runs on an iPad will run on AVP, so Netflix will be there. There may not be 3D content, but so far only Disney has really offered that. I am personally not sure 3D movies are a good idea, I doubt filmmakers have figured out this medium yet and certainly arenâ(TM)t targeting it.

Effectively heâ(TM)s just expressing ignorance about technology and his desire to focus on mediocre tv for the masses and is willing to let others experiment. For now, Netflix is the best game in town, but that town increasingly looks like Detroit.

This game seems like pokemon met valheim and bred Jormungax and Fenrol who combined for Ragnipok, the LoL of times.

He is trying to prove the point that without China, the west is nothing. He's done an excellent job of proving the opposite.

At some point there will be a renewed desire to normalize trade relations with China, and hopefully we can negotiate far more favorable terms than those which we endured from 1990-2015.

Literally impossible at this point.

Murray Hill was a dry town, so there were only two restaurants, a really bad french joint and a chinese restuarant (and a McDonalds I think). There was a TGIFs nearby in a town that was not dry, that may be what you were thinking of.

Murray Hill itself was pretty wealthy and mostly a suburb to NYC, there's not much reason to be there unless you live there or worked there.

When I worked there, Bell Labs was very much opposed to IP networking in general. It was the biggest road sign that there was a limited future for them.

I believe Biden has said as much publicly. Most city mayors are pitching a fit too.

I suspect corporations will humor him for the next year, but once he's re-elected the flood gates are going to break. Should he lose the election, nothing really matters much anyway.

Last year our VP made a similar skit. As the kids say, it was cringe. I don't know if HR twats, in some conference in a dark corner of the world, all get together to form ideas of how to sell employees on the idea of RTO, but I have noticed a lot of these skits lately. It is 100% stupid.

In two years of being back to the office, no one has visited my cube. Partly because most of my team is spread across 15,000 miles in different offices. Partly because even the people sitting right next to me can use Slack and find it a more efficient way of working, as I do.

Note they want business in China, the do not want to put their business in China. This is the problem, and why our trade relationship with China needs to be renegotiated to be less in favor of China.

Utlimately if China weren't such a horrific place, governments wouldn't be able to control relationships via trade policies very easily, as companies (and people) would transfer between them the same way we use gas stations.

I donâ(TM)t even use a phone at work. All communication is email, slack or webex. Similarly I may place or accept one actual phone call per week for personal business. My family are all busy and in various blackout windows for school and we mostly use group text to leave messages.

A flip phone is a waste of money at any price. The problem is not smartphones, itâ(TM)s social media. Just delete it.

Dying is unfortunately the easiest way to cancel cable.

User reviews and ratings are definitely not good enough, they're very gamable.

The problem with human curated lists is the same as movie critics though: their opinion is usually for sale. Kotaku is the best example in the video game world, they're not remotely objective and generally I use them the same way I use Cramer's financial advice: do the opposite.

If I were a person who had to work in the office, I would be absolutely thrilled to have those who don't work from home. And get off my roads and out of my way and reduce my commute time.

My employer has quietly stopped building anything new or acquiring new property. Officially we're hybrid, but we lost a lot of people after bonuses paid out, I suspect we will eventually adopt a more WFH model.

I suspect we have plenty of people who *have* to work from an office for one reason or another, and I think about 20% of my coworkers would prefer it because their home situation isn't remote friendly. But the rest... we'll all eventaully be full time remote.
