You can express your opinion, but other people can criticize it. It’s just how these sites work.

That’s giving them too much credit. I think they want it to be theirs.

There are pictures and ads in a newspaper. This is much more minimalistic.

Driverless cars can work if enough vehicles are replaced with them. I agree that a few driverless cars in a sea of regular drivers is not optimal though.

I'd rather a simpler phone at this point. I don't think I've ever looked at my phone and felt that it's too small. I can think of other ways that I'd want phones to be more functional, like connecting to external peripherals and a monitor.

Lots of people are excited about folding phones too though, so more power to them if companies are willing to go that way.

For a $100k device, I would expect better long term support.

Do linux and privacy focused consumers actually make up a large portion of their market share? Linux users still make up a small portion of desktop users, and not even all of those really care much about privacy.

I admit that I’m skeptical since everyone is a node. It probably is fine, but I don’t know the risks that I take by volunteering as a node. I thought that VPNs can be fine as long as they don’t store logs, but I could be mistaken.

I don’t know if there is an all inclusive list for all major religions, but hebcal.com has a detailed calendar for Judaism. Not everything on the calendar requires Jews to take time off of work, so further research may be required to get the exact list that you’re looking for. It does give some explanation of each holiday on the site though.

Where do we draw the line for “rich people?” You can’t just have a system where you can hurt and steal as much as you want from rich people. What you’re describing is closer to a revolution, and carrying that idea to its conclusion usually involves a ton of bloodshed and putting new people in power who are just as bad.

Yeah I have no sympathy for advertisers, but this seems like it’s pretty clearly fraud.

I don’t think that Early Access is meant to convey a specific stage of development. That’s probably why they opted to use that instead of alpha/beta. Maybe developers should be required to disclose their plans between now and release, but I don’t feel that an arbitrary time limit is fair.

 

I am thinking of trying a new OS on my Pixel 8 pro, and I’m wondering if switching will require me to inform or update my cell service provider, Verizon, in any way to stay connected. When I just moved my SIM card from one device to another, I learned that it activates an anti theft feature after a couple of days of working normally. This was easily fixed with Verizon support, but it was a hassle since I’m still on my parents’ phone plan. Am I likely to have this or a similar issue after installing a new OS, or should my cell service and data continue to work?
