Latin in a dead language, so, maybe, it's time to learn something a bit more modern? :p

You mean like the big fat "game on mobile" that we see on Netflix while using a PC, covering the whole window, where you have to scroll down to start seeing the actual streamable shit? Or the fact that Netflix usually does not show stuff that you marked as "not interesting" but still does it for games?

Is that because of the simplified lists that only show what Neflix believes you might be interested in (you just watch a WWII movie, let me fill half the lists with other WWII movies), without allowing you to see the whole catalog, much less sort it by, for example, rating (oh wait, that's gone), or year, ...? Or is it because they simplified the rating system (thumb up/down instead of the more precise stars)? Or is it because they removed the distracting comment system?

To be honest, I don't have any other service than Netflix so I can't really judged, but if this is the best UI available, then geez, the others must suck really bad.

The extra bits are useful when the image might be manipulated later (think gamma correction, color shifting, colorspace translation, image layering,...). If the precision of the color doesn't have an exact one-to-one match with the result, you get a rounding error. If that kind of conversion happens a lot, that error compounds and can become noticeable. The extra precision allow that rounding error to remain below the perception threshold, even when (reasonably) compounded.

This is the same reason that professional audio uses 24/32-bits at 96/384kHz even though the human ear can't distinguish anything beyond 16-bits/44kHz.

A computer is an electronic device. With a sufficiently targeted electromagnetic field, one can provide power (ask your smartphone), turn the computer on (ask an EMP bomb) and flip bits in memory (ask the Sun) and thus run any program without your knowledge.

1. It's sad that nowadays buying some lifetime license of some software is considered a deal. This used to be the norm, before that subscription scam.
2. It isn't clear from the article but given the ads like image in the middle of it, you're buying Office 2021. So it's really a lifetime-but-soon-obsolete license. So it's not quite comparable to a subscription (but then you can buy a lifetime license for the next version is still come up ahead money wise)
3. And of course, LibreOffice is also a lifetime license but for $0 and also upgradable for $0 (but please donate if you can afford it).

Samsung does not provide phones with stock Android, so unless you modded it, you're using the Samsung version of Android, not stock (i.e. "plain Google"). The fact that you have "One UI" is another indicated that it's not stock.

It's the name of the last level of settings for my phone, so in your case, it should be "view" or "certi"

What phone? It's different on stock Android 13 (Pixel 7):

Settings > Security > More security settings > Encryption & credentials > Trusted credentials > System tab (should be the default selection already)
(then scroll to Trustcor and disables the 3 certificates as you mentioned)

Faster alternatively: go to Settings then search for "trusted" and select the "Trusted credentials" options.

I never said all people sending money overseas are either poor or rich. I said _usually_ they are.
Your experience is just an anecdote, that does not make it a statistic. It's especially meaningless since going by your typo, you don't live in the US.

Anybody can make up an example that favors their viewpoint.
Not that that example is even remotely realistic to begin with. To double the price, it means adding 100% in tax at the very least. It only gets worse if one assumes that the $2 already accounts for some amount of sales tax.

Actually no, most of the taxes come from the upper class (at least in the US), but it's not a big enough proportion to prevent an increase in class disparities.

Only if the increase is more than the saving from not having to pay income tax.
And lower and upper class don't buy the same products, and products don't have to have the same sale tax. Rice, milk and sedans could have much lower sales tax than caviar, Rolexes and yachts.

But anyway, that's beside the point. I'm not trying to argue in favor of dropping the income tax (like I said, I think it's a bad idea too). I'm only saying that your focus on one narrow issue is misguided ("forest for the trees" and all that), which is not helped by the fact that you also called it a "significant portion" while, if my calculation are correct, that portion actually represents ~1% of the total IRS income tax revenue.

I've never suggested to get rid of income tax, nor that it was a good idea. I too believe it's a terribly bad idea.

But I am suggesting that mentioning only the loss from money sent overseas, is a very one-sided argument that over simplifies a complex problem. The most obvious counter-point is that it will also tax money coming *from* overseas.

(not counting the fact that the people sending money overseas are usually either people in the lower brackets on the income tax, or people using tax havens with the purpose of avoiding paying any tax, i.e. the would-be loss caused by money sent overseas would likely be negligible)

More than tourists coming to the USA and buying things?

Nobody is arguing that Netflix's value has diminished, the question is if it has diminished enough to be gobbled up during the consolidation, or is it still big enough to survive and do some of that gobbling?

It depends on how many human interventions are required with barcodes. If the robot can't find or read the barcode on 10% of the items, then a 1% error is still a big win.

I doubt 5G would be just "roaming" thing. Knowing airlines, they will ask to agree to some things before 5G can be used at all (including how much they will charge you) and to provide a credit card number. I don't see how this can be illegal as long as they are upfront enough and the user can make an "informed decision".

Ad-blocker are not magic solutions. They are easy enough to circumvent (VPN, make the ads look like it comes from the main website, bogus certificate to see/modify HTTPS, ...). They could also ask you to regularly go to some special website to "re-register your 5G" and show ads then, ...

And I didn't ask if the bandwidth would be limited, but how low would that limit be.

And like I said in my original post, one just needs to look at what they do today with their existing "inflight Internet" to see what they will most likely do tomorrow with 5G. But if you want to misunderstand my points as well as ignore the past (and present for that matter), that's your prerogative I guess.

... but at what price? How much will the airline charge for this feature? Will it require their own "free" app? How much tracking will they do? How much ads will be added to each and every web pages we visit? How much data will be able to use? How much of that data will be eaten by the ads? ...

I'm glad 5G will be allowed, but I'm sure it will be unusable, like all the other connectivity already available on planes today.

... welcome the day when I can upgrade my CPU and GPU with just a few keystrokes:

Are they trying to redefine what "network upgrade" means so they can still claim the government subsidies without actually doing anything?
