If you have to write an entire lengthy paragraph about how actually, the message is good an important (gas safety), just to allow yourself to go on a diatribe about entirely separate topics tangentially related to the video, you make have a bad take.

I have the latest gen iPod shuffle. Physical buttons, tiny and has a clip built in, no screen. Still the absolute best music player for running, I don’t know how people run with those phone holder arm bands. Only thing that would make it better would be bluetooth and more storage and the ability to sync podcasts.

You can’t claim that space tourism is somehow so inaccessible that only the ultra-rich can do it AND pretend like there are enough flights to cause meaningful damage to the environment. If prices remain at several hundred thousand dollars, I’ll bet we see much less than ~10,000 flights over the next decade. Compared…

I got engaged at the spot this picture was taken from. Such a damn shame. It is an amazing site.

F9? As in, SpaceX Falcon 9, the name of a rocket? Good place to introduce rockets to the franchise, I guess

Try the ErgodoxEZ or the Moonlander

Is it really fair to call oil used in plastic production “fossil fuel?” I mean, it’s not being burned, and it locks up the carbon for a while at least. Granted, the 1.2 billion ton figure cited DOES seem to point to actual greenhouse gas emissions. And plastics themselves have plenty of environmental downsides outside…

This is a pretty good article, and it does a great job pointing out how the insincerity and nonsense in some arguments from the right. However, I can’t help but feel a bit disappointed in the mentions of science and the conclusions that we can draw. The article seems to try to present all biological and hormonal…

Pretty much the only irreversible consequence of dealing with climate change is the CO2 emissions themselves. Our number one priority (I hesitate to say our ONLY priority) should be to accelerate the day of net zero carbon emissions worldwide. Practically ALL other considerations, including helping developing…

I bought their previous 3-year old 38" curved display for $800 last year and it has been amazing for my productivity. I don’t see a whole lot here that would convince me to upgrade for that price, except the slightly higher resolution and some extra ports I can’t make use of with my 5 year old Macbook. The KVM is a…

Not sure if you are a Russian Troll or just really misinformed. The American segment is not in danger of breaking up, American astronauts have been flying to the station from American spacecraft since May, and the Russian president is the the one that just tried to assassinate a political dissident. As for “Made in…

eh, it’s pretty close when you compare to Google and Facebook https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/talkingtech/2018/04/17/apple-make-simpler-download-your-privacy-data-year/521786002/
The main way they serve targeted ads is through app store browsing and News articles. Which is a pretty tiny amount of a person’s overall…

Apple does not harvest user data. Except maybe through Siri. And I have no idea what Sony does.

I have Apple Arcade, which I mostly use in Apple TV. I’m not sure if it’s worth it to me, not because it sucks but I just don’t play games enough. There are some great titles on there though. Discoloration, sneaky Sasquatch, What the Golf. A lot of fun concepts, stuff you could easily sink 5-10 hours into. I like the…

So let me get this straight: a corrupt Ecuadorian Judge made up the lie that Donziger gave a $500,000 bribe, admitted that it was a lie and then...US courts ruled against Donziger while citing that bribe? I’m sorry, there has GOT to be more to that story. Guess I know what I’m doing tonight.

They do this, but I don’t think it is a sudden as you are making it seem. I think they are hesitant to adopt a new technology until they are confident they can make it work in an intuitive, user-friendly way. A good example is the iPad cursor/touchpad combo (there’s a great video featuring Craig Federighi that goes…

Have you heard Apple make any claims recently (past ~year) that Lightning is superior to USB-C? Or even that a touchscreen Mac is unworkable? They may well have, I’m just wondering. Like they have repeatedly said that iOS and MacOS are not merging and that Mac isn’t going away. But other than the ‘gorilla arm’ claim…

Eh, it’s already sightly fragmented with the Touchbar on some Macbooks. But I agree with you otherwise.

Extensions have been available for Safari for a long time now. Can someone explain to me what is new? Are they available on the App store now? Can developers now more easily port extensions from other browsers to Safari?

Not to mention, the botched liftoff was on a booster that had been reused many times before. AND they neglected to mention the Crew Demo-1 capsule explosion from a year ago. Really poor research overall.
