Funny you mention apps. I turned auto-update off for all of them on my phone because I got tired of functionality being removed. A couple force updates after you get too far behind. Been alright so far, but it’s been less than half a year ago we’ll see how it goes in the long run. Security is obviously taking a hit by doing this.

Accountability, what is that?

DRM is usually known for big games before they are released. You can find articles about how the DRM works online. If it’s a new type of DRM, they usually describe how it works.

This. I avoid management positions like the plague. I already don’t like having to deal with my own performance review. I don’t want to deal with several other people’s. I’ll take the pay hit.

Uhh, price?

It’s more integrated. Also, I don’t think the expectation is to carry them around. You’d pick what you want for your trip and leave the rest at home. I expect this to be more like DS and less like Switch. I.e. A single person per device.

When you start with a conclusion and work your way back to reasons, you almost always end up with odd logic. That’s why good science does it the other way around.

Depends on how you look at it.

I’ve thought about adding him as a filter but I’m afraid I’d stop getting most US news. Even if I don’t want to have any discussions about him, plenty of policy changes and laws are going to be a result of his actions and I will need/want to know about them.

Civil forfeiture has existed for decades. Taking property for themselves hasn’t been the problem.

Don’t think he realizes how problematic it would be for the government to have a stake in any company that actively removes posts. Suddenly they’re forced to allow far more speech than they previously did.

You will live in fear because you’ll never be sure until you read the article.
