competitive broadband marketplace

Represents multiple supposedly fierce competitors

I see the problem. Someone must've convinced them that opposite day was real in 4th grade, and they've been stuck that way ever since

The fuck did I just read?

It's more true than not. Also, even just in counted votes he got less than 50%

More like "carbon capture you say? That sounds like a great reason to stop caring about emissions"

IDK, in a dystopian capitalism end state blowing shit up while giggling sounds like good mental health to me

Exactly, do you want them to know we polluted ourselves to death? That's just shameful

Now, if we accidentally unleashed an ancient parasite? That's just unfortunate

I like the time they implied it would somehow protect people from sexual assault, but just ended up just revealing how personal the data they have can be

I've been half joking about it for a while, but it's been only a matter of time before copyright was stretched so far that criticism of the work becomes a violation

Unfortunately, it seems to be beginning

Here's a neat detail about burning hydrocarbons - the oxygen burns carbon and releases CO2, but also H2O (and other things that don't seem great)

There is a real difference for things like baking - I'm not saying it's impossible to compensate with electric, but you'd have to adjust your process to get the same result

Well, FWIW, I drank my own pee. It tasted like mushroom tea.... Then the next time, it tasted like piss. Very much night and day

They would have to be more scummy and also at least similarly competent... Google can't innovate for crap, but they're pretty good at maintaining projects (when they don't randomly kill them off)

If they stop work on chromium, or belief in the stewardship of chromium wanes, it'll fragment the ecosystem again. Which is sorely needed at this point - we need to get back to standards and away from centralized control

Imagine Twitter/musk acquires them. Microsoft, Apple, and many other big companies directly or indirectly rely on a chain now controlled by a group known for mismanagement - are they going to wait and see, or are they going to diversify?

Pains of being a prototype democracy and all... If only the founding fathers had explicitly told us our system would need reform as issues came up

All of that makes me nauseous.

You're free to use what you want to use, but the layers of dependency on vulnerable product lines is exactly the problem

Sure you can, outside of a few specific carve outs it's a civil matter... Meaning it takes money to fight money behind it

I worry more that it will become like recycling, and they'll pretend it works or that it's being done at scale so the majority stops worrying about it

It might be a 3 hour process, but you can get that down to 3 2 minute tasks and 1 ten minute one. And that's going from dried beans to cleaning up behind yourself... It's really very easy to make

I really like my wired-wireless earbuds. They wrap around my neck and the magnets keep them in place like a necklace when not in use, the microphone/controls are closer to your mouth so the sound quality tends to be better

But of course, we can't have nice things anymore, so they seem to be phasing them out

Probably so they can be stored carelessly in dirty warehouses that may or may not control for humidity

Sprint merged with TMobile
