Comment Re: SNITCH ON? (Score 2) 34

Seems a perfectly valid use of the word. Remember that from Samsungâ(TM)s perspective, using unauthorised parts IS wrong. Samsung is trying to prevent people from repairing a device that belongs to the PERSON with parts that the person chooses. In the same way that I am allowed to put any case on my Samsung phone, I am allowed to solder any part or attach anything I want to a device I own. It is NOT wrong for me to do this. But Samsung wants it to be wrong and wants repair shops to snitch on it as if it was wrong. The word snitch is completely accurate from Samsungâ(TM)s point of view. âoeTell us about people who do the thing we donâ(TM)t like.â

Comment This person just noticed this in 2023? (Score 1) 170

They describe themselves as middle-aged which implies being on the internet nearly as long as Google has been on the internet. In the year of our Lord 2023, they JUST noticed that ads clog everything up? They didnâ(TM)t mention a single feature that was added to Google maps in the last 5 years. Itâ(TM)s been like this forever. Which internet were they using these last 20 years?
