An important idea beautifully executed

Integration with my car stereo for music and GPS

I’ve learned a lot from you, because I don’t know as much about history as you do. Your posts and comments are always welcome!

Looks good. Nice work!

I didn’t even know this was being made, so I’m not disappointed by the delay. Cavill seems like a decent dude, though. Hope he recovers quickly and completely!

Based on my nieces and nephews, I’m gonna say tablet. One with a thick, spongy case.

So this is it? Humans will get used to corporate digital cages?

If the corpos get their way, yes.

The company also argued that its users are bound by the platform’s terms of service, which forbid violating others’ intellectual property rights.

Ah, the old “blame the users” trick. Why not? It’s worked countless times before.

I’m down with the cookies, but the delivery part (and remembering who gets what) would be way too much effort

Lots of dead birds/banana peels/whatever on the ground. The Tour de France is an internationally televised event! Do some track prep, folks!

Had a friend who was hired by a temp agency to reprogram outdated mainframes in an ancient programming language. He was paid for training. There were ARMIES of people like him doing last-minute fixes. Y2K would have been a tremendous disaster if people had just ignored it.

See also: the environment, but without armies of people working on fixes.

I just try to remember that I’m not always at my best when I comment, either. Sometimes the most polite response is to make no response at all. Not even a downvote. Don’t draw attention to it. Just let it die.

I rarely post but comment a fair amount. To me, it’s only been recent, but I’ve noticed a decline, too.

Huh. I think he’s got some good arguments. I wish him luck!

Her partner, and presumably prospective husband, was supportive of the project.

I bet he was. He just saved thousands of dollars.

Didn’t say it was.

Okay, but weapons exist. Any country that declared that it had no government would be taken over in less time than it’s taking me to type this (granted, I’m on a phone, but still).

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin is a great book that explores an anarchist society. It works because the anarchists are on an unwelcoming moon with very few resources.

I’m not sure what system would work. The problem is people. Once the wrong people are in charge, they’ll ignore or break laws with impunity.

Capitalism has definitely proven that it’s not the answer, though.
