You are right, I didn't know or didn't remember those.

What's ironic is that feeds his megalomania. Extreme-ego types love that their detractors are thinking about them all the time.
"Living rent-free" is the ultimate payoff.
Best to ignore them as much as possible.
Instead of 10 activations limit it to n number of sync chains.
Pair the activation authorization to the hash of a chain code or whatever on the Brave activation server.
Reduce the number to 5, that's fine.
A good number of privacy folks have extra devices to run certain apps. You might trust Brave and have them all synced but not some odd banking apps or dating apps or stuff work makes you have.
A decent used phone can be had for $50; keeping all those apps on one device seems nuts.
5 sync chains would effectively be a family license around here. Sounds like a good deal at $60.
Having a license wear out because your phone needed a factory reset or went in for service just doesn't make sense.
Amazon's drone fleet has been running since late 2024, the Post adds, and are now offering "ultra-fast" shipping in U.S. states including Arizona, Florida, Michigan, Kansas and Texas.
So they've been mis-handling drone-delivered packages for 18 months now in several states, and only now we're hearing about the 'horrors' of an item in a plastic bottle breaking on 'drop-off'? If this were as big an issue as the submitter and editor want us to believe it is, why did it take so long to be reported on?
I suspect this has been much more successful than this article would lead you to believe.
(I expect a lot of the deliveries might be books, which aren't likely to suffer so much from a 10 foot drop...)
... and with all their mass-firings probably AI slop too.
I prefer the small rural theaters with a dozen people at a matinee.
Big and Loud will appeal to the Zoomers who aren't broke. That's about 10% of them.
These are the new Intolerable Acts.
There's a reason you learned how to be a Marine. "Foreign and domestic."
the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) logs with GPS positions covered the BYD's full journey from the factory in China to its operational life in the United Kingdom, and to its final wrecking in Poland, Marchand explained in an analysis..
A nonsensical, impossible claim - do you really claim the flash memory in the car stores *every* waypoint the car ever travels? It makes no sense, the data retained would be enormous. The linked to article shows four or five data points per second, extrapolate that over the life of the vehicle and you quickly realize it's impossible.
I think what the system retains are what it considers "important" datapoints, like impacts, when warnings are made to the driver, and when errors are detected. It also makes sense the computer might store the last so-many hours of location information, but that's it.
Presumably the crash the "discovered" was the final event that caused the EV to wind up in the junkyard in Poland.
Are really going to start yelling about 'big brother' because on-board GPS systems retain previous locations?
Right. You are applying legalese word precision assumptions to throwaway online comments. I don't think that's going to work well.
Trying to think of a single movie or tv show which I love so much I would be happy if they did this to make more... Nope. Can't think of any.
One thing for sure: this will result in a lot more incredibly lame plotlines like "somehow, Palpatine returned".
Sigh. Well, at least I'll save a lot of time and money not going to see movies.
Someone did an AI live action recreation of Johnny Quest, and it looks totally cool.
That's sorta' the reverse of the current article - instead of taking a no longer available actor and recreating him, they're making an actor (who never existed) from scratch to play the part of a cartoon character.
Just saw the trailer and...
I have no idea what the movie is about, whether it looks good, or whether I want to see it.
It reads "some stories were too hidden to be found" (and wtf does that mean? And the story was too hidden to be found but you're making a movie of it?), and it's based on a real story.
And a bunch of seemingly disconnected action shots.
Hard pass. I'll stream it if the reviews are any good.
This seems to be the open-access link but in searching for that I saw another article from the authors about the small intestine metabolizing fructose into glucose.
So it's probably more complex than we thought. Another 5-6-fructase pathway, I'd guess, haven't read it yet.
No, the one that answered:
"You know what he means, ahole. If this were truly a problem the jet fuel would be rationed and private aircraft would be at the bottom of the priority list"
The entire point of rationing would be to REMOVE the pure market forces that would deal out the limited commodity to those with the largest wallets and replace it with a scheme that benefits the most people, instead of the most money.
If you actually knew better, you'd have posted it, not just made a vague assertion.
Well, high enriched uranium is used in naval reactors.
Yes, and the only ships running on nuclear reactors are military ships. As I said: No civilian use-case.
It was an unusual campaign in that 95% of campaign promises weren't not just unfulfilled but 180* opposite of policy. Ultimate con man.
But now that Philippines is nearly out of oil China has made overtures to take care of their oil needs which have been defacto accepted.
The quid pro quo isn't stated yet but US caused their oil crisis so this announcement isn't real.
The biggest mistake you can make is to believe that you are working for someone else.
