That is just the thing: You do not pay for the OS, you get the OS for free. You pay for all the other crap bundled with it and that crap cannot be removed.

I will definitely do away with all windows systems I can when Win10 goes out of support. In addition, I do not need an artificial idiot in my systems. There are enough natural idiots around already.

Indeed. Forcing somebody to work more than 10h/day and 50h/week counts as assault and can land you in prison in some countries in Europe.

He is right that the gap between the US and Europe gets larger though: The US is losing its middle-class and everybody is getting poorer and poorer (excluding the rich). The same does not happen in Europe.

Whether self-enslaved or enslaved by some company. Everybody else works smart and recognizes there is life outside of work.

Looks like some no-honor, no-integrity "moderator" believes "I do not like this person" is a valid reason to down-mod. Again. Scum.

Well, in _that_ case, the infrastructure will do exceptionally well!

I'm sure there has been an increase in abuse, both of Jews and of Muslims, and Arabs. But that's the issue. Zionists really want to conflate the ethnicity with the religion with their genocide. They even put the Star of David on the Israeli flag. It's deliberate, to endanger you, because it furthers their aims.

I guess he lives in the US and speaks from his own experience?

I'm not against them removing the apps, I'm against the headline trying to make me feel a certain way. Present the facts, I'll decide how I feel about them.

When you put a bunch of cylinders in a box you by definition have wasted space.

When you put boxes in a box you can have no wasted space.

How does using cylindrical cells improve density?

Using cylindrical cells also means having to have more parallelism to achieve a specific capacity, which means more connections, which means less reliability. This is a big part of the reason why post-collision Tesla model S batteries are unsafe for RV power storage. You can't reasonably detect bonding faults.

More to the point, it's unsustainable to just let anyone do anything just because they want to. There's a broad range of behaviors which fall into that non-category, and some of them are fine because they're not hurting anyone and some of them aren't because they are. Right to swing fist, end of my nose, etc etc.

I enjoy vroom vroom noises myself but I also appreciate that there are more important issues at hand than my own selfish gratification.

You literally cannot prevent that in an app which can make consensual nude images. Therefore the word nonconsensual is being used in order to trigger people into having a specific opinion. A better description is "an app which can be used to create fake nude images" since it can't literally show you what someone would look like unclothed.

The interesting thing about that statement is that it's the fascists that have brought us to this point where we have all these highly polluting coal plants.

Indeed. And the crumbling of US infrastructure continues. Well, maybe AI can accelerate that effect.

They are if the end user can charge at home and aren't if they can't.
The intelligent thing to do would have been to mandate charger installation on new construction or any significant remodel or electrical system upgrade, years ago. But we can't agree to do things intelligently because we have to fight with each other over whether corporations have a right to make a profit. (They don't have one written into the law, but they seem to have a de facto one in that they can buy protectionist laws.)
