Proof of this? YouTubers have opened up both sets. They aren’t the same.
- Comment on The four houses dads belong to. 10 months ago:
Owned by same company does not mean same tool. I own a bunch of m12 fuel and some Ryobi too. My Milwaukee stuff kicks the pants off of Ryobi but it is also a lot more expensive.
- Comment on AI-screened eye pics diagnose childhood autism with 100% accuracy 11 months ago:
It’s apparently good at 100% at classifying autism in groups that have already been flagged for high chance of ASD. It is not good at just any old picture.
- Comment on TikTok requires users to “forever waive” rights to sue over past harms 11 months ago:
That’s not a common thing in American contracts. Severability clauses take care of that.
- Comment on YouTube is deliberately crippling Firefox on ARM systems 11 months ago:
That’s gonna be a lawsuit…
- Comment on Senator Warren calls out Apple for shutting down Beeper's 'iMessage to Android' solution 11 months ago:
Yes. Most of my family / peers have iPhones. So iMessage is the standard for them. We use signal for the rest.
- Comment on 23andMe frantically changed its terms of service to prevent hacked customers from suing 11 months ago:
You’re referring to the contract concept of “consideration” which sometimes is the same as compensation but can also do doing/ not doing an action. Sometimes consideration isn’t required either, particularly if the original contract had adequate consideration and says future amendments don’t have to have it. (Depends a lot on which state). That may or may not matter here. It really depends on the specific terms at dispute and you can’t just assume it fixes this issue.
- Comment on 23andMe frantically changed its terms of service to prevent hacked customers from suing 11 months ago:
Like all good lawyer answers: maybe. I don’t know enough about the specific amended terms or their data breach. Courts sometimes enforce adhesion contacts and sometimes don’t. But retroactive in and of itself isn’t illegal; for example, if you could retroactively settle a dispute, you’d have no settlement agreements.
- Comment on 23andMe frantically changed its terms of service to prevent hacked customers from suing 11 months ago:
Lawyer here: this isn’t necessarily correct and in America it’s state dependent. There are absolutely parts of the law you can waive, including negligence of a party which is likely your bungee jumping scenario with the rope snapping.

One of the best games ever made.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 Investment and Engagement is declining, Blizzard says 1 year ago:
Blizzard sure did fuck around and find out? I bought a new GPU a few months ago. It came with a free OW2 battle pass. Guess what never got redeemed? And I had hundreds of hours in OW1.
