I thought the same thing, but I saw one just a few months ago. It made me wonder the last one I saw. Had to be years and years ago.

I guess people have liked all the extra stuff they’ve made since they keep making more, but I don’t get it.

- Comment on Sam Altman’s Dirty DRAM Deal 1 week ago:
Just when I started considering that maybe it’s time to look at new parts, a new hurdle candy into view. My computer might graduate from elementary school before I can get a decent price on parts. Or maybe they’re will never be decent prices on parts again.

Not trying to shit on her, but what a terrible name. Why name someone in such a way that it doesn’t even sound like a name to most people? That sucks for everyone.
- Comment on UK | Parent called police over school’s ban on mobile phones 4 weeks ago:
You mean like learning you don’t need one by your side 24/7? I think such a ban would provide more benefit than the alternative you suggest.
Plus, it’s not like not having your own personal device means they can’t teach you healthy habits or how to use them.

- Comment on UK | Parent called police over school’s ban on mobile phones 4 weeks ago:
I went to school just before cell phones became normal. Why is a ban of them on school premises stupid? We were fine without them.

- Comment on Amazon is cracking down on illegal streaming on its Fire TV Stick 4 weeks ago:
It says you’ll only be able to download stuff from their store.
- Comment on Amazon is cracking down on illegal streaming on its Fire TV Stick 4 weeks ago:
I don’t stream anything illegal but I have had to sideload a couple of things that weren’t available to download for whatever reason. I’m not going to give up that ability.
It’s one thing if it was never available because they didn’t want to put in the work. I’m talking very generically here, not about Android or the Fire Stick in particular. Like, no one is really going to be upset that something like an MP3 player or a DVD player can’t run whatever software you want. But if your company is intentionally removing such functionality, you can fuck right off. Greed is the only reason to do it.

Any chance you’re good at making guillotines? One can hope they become high demand.
- Comment on YSK: you can stop Microsoft users from sending 'reactions' to your email by adding a "x-ms-reactions: disallow" header 1 month ago:
I’m not sure what you even want then. If an email can’t be delivered you should get a kickback notifications saying it can’t be delivered. Though, that may depend on the email service.
Ans if you’re effectively looking for a read-receipt, I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want to be notified of it. I don’t want to have to manually check anything to see if there is new information to look at. An email may be overkill, but 🤷.

Emails don’t need to work like text messages. Why are reactions even a thing for them?

It uses 1% of the energy but is still 1000x faster than our current fastest cards? Yea, I’m calling bullshit. It’s either a one off, bullshit, or the next industrial revolution.

Uhh, isn’t this just turning them into dumb thermostats? It says you can’t control it via phone. Not that it stops working altogether.
