I noticed that it was white men who drank beer that attracted the most mosquitos.

Obviously there were not many - and it might have been rarity value.

Or perhaps no one had told them about mosquito coils.

OK, The time is right

How many of you are ready to fund me asking the whales if under water explosions make them feel they are haunted?

If you want the real free market, you have to include the cost of bribing politicians.

Politics ain't free, you know

Sounds like this will reduce the diversity of package management - which will help enormously with the problem of multiple Linuxes (Linuxen?) because users won't keep being told that moving between Linuxes is as complex as moving from Amiga to Mac or DEC VAX.

As for running Windows code without you having to give permission on each an every occasion in triplicate, signed in blood - this sounds like a totally unacceptable security risk to me!

Maybe not ...

But you can sure as hell die trying!

Requiring cars to not allow themselves to be used as getaway cars in armed robberies, whether autonomous or not.

Any politician who votes for this has proven themselves unfit for the purpose for which they were elected, and should be declared to be inadequate for any office, let alone a "high office".

In my view, they should be required to get a medical certification that they are sane before they are allowed out of the house.

Disclaimer: I do not reside in the USA.

I had VERY SPECIFIC requirements and I wanted the extended warranty. I would have paid 2x at a dealer. I know what I was doing.

I bought a used 2020 XC90 from CarMax last week. I did everything online from shipping it from Texas to Minnesota to financing the extended warranty. I walked in the door, gave them a cashier's check, and drove away within 10 minutes.

That's how it should be.

Restricting right to repair should be covered by RICO or other anti extortion and racketeering legislation.

Software as a Scam!

People will wise up eventually.

How do we sue the USA for polluting our our world?

they get to control the ad infrastructure and the data that comes from the full Google suite,

Well I want at least a free phone and $50 per hour for the ads they force on me.

I no longer use my Samsung phone for the Internet - the experience is horrendous. If I don't have access to a Linux/BSD machine, I don't use the internet. I am not going to upgrade my phone till it breaks. Probably then I will use a dumb phone.

Please EU, lets have an EUtube!

.. bugs as we know them.

Replacing them with something infinitely worse!
Bugs as we don't know them. That are impossible to find, let alone fix. With every possibility that using AI to fix them will make them worse.

And a douche bag of a president who drops bombs next to schools and kills 135 kids . Should resign on the spot for that.

Look up "human shields", the practice of siting military targets among (or in or under) large collections of non-military civilians, in order to deter strikes against them or produce propaganda claims of atrocities when they're attacked anyhow.

In such situations the fault for the "collateral damage" is assigned to the side that set up the arrangement, not the side that hit it.

Nevertheless, it should be noted that the US has been trying very hard to use precision munitions and extreme military intelligence to take out military targets with as little harm to the innocents they're embedded among as possible, with impressive success. Compare the amount of collateral damage in this war to any of those conducted in the 20th century.
