I think all smartphone companies should pull out of Saudi Arabia until it has better human rights policies.

Governments move really, really slow. How long has USB-C been out? Many years it seems and now it’s being mandated? In my view USB-C is old tech. I like it, don’t get me wrong, but it’s old old.
If you go to any government organization except maybe parts of the military, you’ll find that their tech is outdated and running legacy shit because they have to go through piles of paperwork to change anything.
Sorry, my comment got mangled and I had some typos. I agree that we can separate artists and art. I am annoyed that so many people try to argue the contrary. In academia, many are currently trying to argue that you cannot separate the artist from their art (at least, in music circles). I find that perspective juvenile.
Anyway, I agree with you Gnubyte.
What’s your logic? That slavery and same sex marriage are similar?
Your question doesn’t make sense. But anyway, I read the rest of the article, but very quickly as I found it to be unconvincing from the start.
The adding shit to the URL is scummy but that’s no longer there. The author spends an excessive amount of time on this issue Eva use it’s no longer there. It was a bad move by Brave, but they retracted from it pretty quickly it seems.
The crypto stuff doesn’t bother me. I am not anti crypto. I think it’s an interesting technology that has potential. A lot of people, I think, are lashing out against crypto because they don’t understand it and there are too many crypto bros.
I don’t know what it is, but a fair number of people are incoming these types of arguments these days, especially in academia. What started this trend?
This article did not present a compelling case for abandoning brave. Who cares what the founder thinks about various political issues. If the software is good, then that’s all that matters.
Don’t get me wrong, I support same sex marriage, but people have a right to oppose the concept as marriage is a government idea that is tied up in politics.
I’m not quite why the argument is “nuclear or renewables.” It should be nuclear AND renewables.
Renewable energy generators have improved significantly in the last two decades. I’m sure they will continue to improve.
Nuclear power is a hell of a lot cleaner than coal. And it seems nuclear power plants have improved tremendously. We should use them.
I find it crazy that the plug hasn’t been defined and made universal. They mandated USB-C, I’m sure they can figure out something for car chargers.
I do not trust Google at this stage. I pine for the day when Google seemed like a good company. Gmail was awesome when it came out, for example, and Google search worked well. Now I feel they are harvesting all my data to jam ads down my throat. Google search now sucks ass and just returns websites that have a bunch of AI nonsense or aggregated content that is effectively worthless.
I am migrating away from Google.
From what I understand, the car will help you plan your trip with charging stations along the way. At least, that’s what Teslas do.
Nuclear a power, when done right, is highly efficient.
Although I like big public transportation options, cars are also awesome and won’t be going anywhere for the foreseeable future. I’d rather have electric cars than gas cars as we can generate renewable electricity but not renewable gas.
I’ve seen your argument a few times now. In San Francisco, some folk are protesting self driving cars with cones because they want more public transportation infrastructure. Again, I’m sympathetic—I love public infrastructure. But improving public transportation doesn’t have to be antithetical to EVs.
I’m not sure why so many Apple folk use Spotify. I prefer Apple Music. Also, the new included Apple Classical App is fantastic. Spotify offers a shit experience for classical music lovers.
Supporting Amazon? I’d pass.
Does this work across platforms? iPad? iPhone? AppleTV?
I can’t stand watching ads. Ads waste my time. My time is valuable. I’ll pay for no ads.
I really don’t like the idea of governments regulating tech and innovations. Although this seems like a good idea, it could severely limit companies in the way they design their phones.
People think that Apple and Samsung maliciously make irreplaceable batteries, but these people barely know how to use their phone in the first place, much less how the phone was engineered. Battery implementation in super thin devices is not a simple affair. Requiring tech to have certain things is really dumb. Let the capitalistic market and buyers figure out what they need. Don’t force it through government.
