I do not think the OP was disputing that. It seems like they were just warning other readers that the Meta servers have unreasonable or undesirable rules.

The timing of this seems super weird, as Facebook is now basically irrelevant for anyone under the age of 40.

They might have been actually able to get away this 12 years ago when Facebook was still new and cool, but now it's really only used by boomers who share fake news with each other and complain that their grand kids don't visit them often. Businesses will just stop posting and leave a link to their website instead.

We really still haven't had that major battery tech breakthrough that allows for $25,000 EV's with over 300 miles of range that can meet EU crash and safety standards... yet. I'd imagine that China is closer to the goal than most, though.

Until then, we really don't have mass market alternative that makes all ICE vehicles obsolete for lower income nations.

Code.org is just an industry advocacy group and lobbyist. Their actions demonstrate that their mission is to make money for tech companies, so they should have their nonprofit status revoked. They're basically just an industry marketing effort.

What you are suggesting is a law. The executive branch does not have that power.

It goes to show why you Trump idiots never see anything wrong with what he does. You do not understand basic civics.

Probably. YouTube has been jacking up the prices of their service to around $85 a month. At that point, the introductory prices that Comcast offers for a cable/internet/mobile combo plan are looking better in comparison.

I think that the billionaires are planning for that last one. Bill Gates is buying up large tracts of farm land, and most of the tech oligarchs are building huge compounds for themselves that probably have huge doomsday bunkers in the basement. Their families will be OK when World War 3 or the AI apocalypse happens.

That already happened. Windows 11 has an XBox app that lets you stream console games from your PC if you have an XBox Game Pass Gold subscription.

It really seems like Microsoft is just giving up on new hardware and leaning in hard to cloud streaming.

Your post demonstrates that you understand what the author meant, but then you continue to criticize him for failing to be inefficiently and unnecessarily pedantic with his words.

Think about that.

I think that they are also greatly overestimating the quality of the IT support that most schools have.

When I was in school, I already knew how to set up PC's and Macs in high school better than they did. I was basically 2nd level tech support for my school library, because I could figure out his tech problems before they bothered to check it.

Even if my iPad hacking attempt failed, I could probably just turn in the broken iPad, give them some lame "I don't know what happened to it!" excuse, and let their IT flunkies re-image it for me. Odds are a senior level IT person who would notice what really happened would ever see it.

I had all of my high school formulas programmed into my TI-85 25 years ago, which was probably considered cheating at the time but was super effective.

I can only imagine what I could get away with now if I had a Chromebook with ChatGPT to use in class.

He's right, you know. We don't get the next generation of hackers without giving them parental controls to figure out to disable!

Although, there isn't much knowledge needed to factory reset an iPad. You can learn that from a TikTok video.

So, I guess that my Meta Quest headset is going to start having weird semi-transparent windows like the new version of iOS does?

I guess that some people think that the "Liquid Glass" look is cool, but it gives me PTSD flashbacks to the Windows Vista era.

Alas, the Subaru WRX didn't make it to the United States until 2002, so I wasn't that lucky.

Dodge has the new Charger now. While bigger than the old one, it's considered to be a "car". It's not every popular at the moment because it's overpriced, but it does exist?
