Gmail would like a word

The total number is even in the first paragraph. Not the best summary I’ve ever seen.

As long as there are people for whom streaming compression isn’t acceptable, there’ll be a market for Bluray movies/TV shows.

free filing would discriminate against the poor

As opposed to the current system where the richest among us can hire a whole team of accountants to find every deduction possible?

You’re acting like the filing that would come from the government would be the final record and you wouldn’t be allowed to correct it, which is not at all what people are suggesting.

Plus, audits will still be a thing.

Doubt there is one. The hard truth is that most Americans’ taxes are pretty simple and straightforward. We can stop pretending that copying some boxes from a W2 and a 1099 is difficult.

I mean, personally I wish we’d stop pretending that the IRS isn’t already fully aware of what you owe and could just do the filling for you, like in other countries, but until Grover Norquist fucks off forever we’re stuck where we are.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange won the right to challenge a British court’s decision to extradite him to the U.S. to face espionage charges

Emphasis mine, since the headline is poorly worded. He didn’t win an appeal, the court agreed that he can appeal. He still could be shipped off to the US and then eventually <blacksite prison name not found>.

Watching the GN video was insane because I had that exact same experience with ASUS 10 years ago. Back when they made the Nexus 7. I had to RMA 3 of those dam things and each time I had to go through that song and dance with the RMA forms. I think when the 4th one failed I just gave up, recycled it, and moved on from this company as a whole.

Looks like nothing’s changed, which means this way of treating their customers is endemic at this point. They’re a lost cause.

Despite concerns about accuracy and potential misuse, facial recognition technology seems poised for a surge in popularity. California-based restaurant CaliExpress by Flippy now allows customers to pay for their meals with a simple scan of their face, showcasing the potential of facial payment technology.

Oh boy, I can’t wait to be charged for someone else’s meal because they look just enough like me to trigger a payment.

Here you have no recourse options

I can’t speak for every University, but some have a way for you to appeal issues like this to the Dean.

Something MS should’ve done decades ago. Why should the user have to clean up and optimize their PC? It only needs that because your OS is dirty and inefficient, so it should be on you to fix it.

Same argument for AVs being built-in. If it’s unsafe to use your OS on the internet that’s a failing on your part and you should see to it that doesn’t happen.

Tell them Canada and Mexico will close their borders if it happens. See if they still think war is a good idea when it’s in their neighborhood and there’s no escape.

LTT has social media accounts everywhere. They could’ve uploaded to floatplane and posted that link instead.

Not that I blame him for using YouTube but it’s the same chicken and egg problem we’ve had for awhile. No one uses alternatives because the creators aren’t there, and they’re not there because viewers aren’t either.

There’s plenty of games that require deep and extensive thought. I just wanna jump on turtles and fix this spaceship before I get tossed out of the airlock.

Don’t you need specific CPUs for these AI features? If so, how is this going to work on the machines that don’t support it?

I’m just gonna assume Trump has a blood boy and he missed a session so the kid had to mail in the vials.

Most of those other types of phones aren’t around anymore because nobody bought them. Sure, small phones are great and I even had a 13 mini, but I’m one of like 20 people who bought it. I’ve never ever seen a sliding keyboard phone in the wild, just on YouTube. Same for those other more eclectic devices. The market has spoken, and it said “giant slabs of glass please”.

Calling others beta convinces me that you’re just projecting. Alphas don’t talk about shit like this.

And calling your enemies f-gs convinces me that you’re extremely active on Grindr.

Regular people don’t have access to that data. They do have access to a $30 tracker, and people need to know if they’re being stalked.
