You don't seem to know what you are talking about. Are you a child or on a primary school or something? Read more.

Bill Gates during the early years, yes. But now, I thought he's turned 180°.

yes, I am one of those who are also getting bored of it. But this doesn't mean that I am part of the market that they targeted. They might me targeting certain segments or even service providers such as game developers or console makers etc. The technology is still in it advent stage so it is too early to say wether they are going to fail.

Sorry, I disagree with this kind of generalisation. To be rational, Just because you don't want it, it doesn't mean everyone else is on the same ship. I am very sure there are certain people who will benefit from this and want it.

I use encfs and sync it to dropbox etc. Then use gopass password manager to store password in the encfs folders. Not fully auto-integrated but good enough for me.

Very unlikely, If you read and refer to the article. The identity was stolen but the pic is a stock photo.

The two images at the top of this story are a stock photo and what KnowBe4 says is the AI fake based on the stock photo.

Yeah. Once I overheard someone chatting behind me while in a train. I knew it was in German because I've learnt some long time before. It was the cutest (presumably romantic) conversation I've ever even though I didn't understand much. Before that I've always thought French sounded the nicest, but that conversation shattered my belief.

A while later, I went to Germany to visit friend. While at a museum I read out loud some descriptions on items there. He told me I spoke like in films, even like Hitler. Hearing him talking with family, it was very casual and there was no sudden change of intonation like in movies. I somehow realized stereotype in movies ruined my perspective on the language.

The reason is that the Celsius scale has a fixed offset.

Can you explain more on this? I still don't get it.

As of now, although I am not a man of authority on this subject, I still think temperature difference can be expressed by using celcius simply because the celcius has the same equivalent difference as Kelvin. The difference of the two value of the same unit will still be the same unit.

First, from here

Since the standardization of the kelvin in the International System of Units, it has subsequently been redefined in terms of the equivalent fixing points on the Kelvin scale, so that a temperature increment of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, though numerically the scales differ by an exact offset of 273.15.

Secondly from here

The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific point on the Celsius temperature scale or to a difference or range between two temperatures.

I am with you. I am baffled when non sequitur comment got more engagements and someone got downvoted for pointing it out.

Quality is not appreciated here, I suppose.

Just stop using YT altogether.

They should but easy to say than done. In the end they will return back to it if no better or at least equal alternatives are out there to fill the vacuum.

the methods used by thiefs to try and get access to your phone data.

It is not about accessing the data but to disassociate the current user from the phone so that the thief can reset the phone or/and it's components for new users.

When a non sequitor topic become the argument, When we are looking at the symptom instead of the disease.

Why should we even live? At the end of the day, capitalism will eat you. Fuck capitakisn.
