The Democrats' achilles heel.

I didn't know there were that many tech reviewers.

Hardware can't fix what's broken in software.

Ukrainian civilians are fair game to the Russian military, so...

It just means they've survived the first part of the bathtub curve. To me that's a bonus.

Just an inherent consequence of capitalism. If people are willing to pay much more than the price that was set by the manufacturer, it's their loss and a business opportunity for third parties.

America is Israel's bitch, different situation.

I use an app to control the mouse and keyboard of my home theater PC from my smartphone. Will that ever be able to work?

I truly despise how simplified things have gotten. Interacting and modifying YouTube playlists is such a chore now.

Until we figure out how that is possible outside of theory, it is just that. We have no plans that address actually keeping a spaceship working on such a timescale, and keeping the crew alive on top of it.

Considering we haven't seen any generational alien ships visit, it seems like nobody else has figured it out yet, either.

It has been for a while, horsepower is a legacy unit. Taxes and whatever are based on the kW value.

Guess what, they have mine fields now. Probably much more than a strategic strip at the border.

The grip area actually looks different.

As much as you can afford. When it comes to technology you can't go for the budget options without truly feeling the consequences.

That was true when the modern smartphone was a new concept. Since then, cheap models (a little above the bare minimum) have steadily become better and these days, aside from photography, will do anything the more expensive ones can. Which have also gotten much more expensive than they used to be. Unless you need specialty features like folding or S-Pen, it's not worth it.

Beautiful, isn't it.

That PC is on Ubuntu LTS so it didn't come to mind. The app I've been using is called Unified Remote and was generally pretty neat, not so much about tying my phone to the PC.

It wasn't, popularity waned slowly over the years.

If you have multiple windows of something you can go to the one you need directly. Them always bring grouped and requiring twice as many steps instead feels like I'm being handicapped by the OS.

I always found this to be a bad example. 15 people out of the 51 on that page are playing the game they're in a boycott group for. That's a clear minority, even if that had been representative of all 1557 members.

North Korea has been running dozens of literal concentration camps, but dealing with that has been too inconvenient. And it's only becoming more so as time passes.

So what, you assume that everyone not literally voting for Trump doesn't support him? That's ridiculous. The real number surely is closer to half than it is to the quarter that the votes add up to.

Don't trust media, period.
