They are 100% not patching old chips intentionally by not allocating resources to it. It's a conscious choice made by the company, it is very much "on purpose".

That website asks you to consent to sharing your data with 848 partners, so here's the article text:

Carissa Véliz is an expert in ethics applied to technology. The Spanish-Mexican philosopher, who does not provide a date or place of birth to protect her privacy

Oh the irony...

It was pulled from voting a second time, it will undoubtedly return for another round.

Huh, I seem to be getting something way different from this comic than most people here...

I'm seing knowledge being transferred, and as the number of sources and amount of information increases, it gets harder to figure out how everything interconnects and how it all fits together. But as you get older, you get more experience and start to see how things fit together and the world makes more sense. In the end the jumbled information you've received through your life makes more sense to you, and you transfer the new sum of information on to someone.

They just need a way to let users grant that store the necessary permissions to install and manage apps, which currently requires root

No it doesn't? I'm using fdroid to install and manage apps just fine on an Android device without root access.

Oh I don't care that the IP owner don't get money.

IDK, I just don't like the ethics of pirating media for profit, the entire idea is that it should be accessible to everyone, not just those with money. Cover your operational cost? Sure....Making millions in subscriptions? That is an asshole move IMO. If you're paying, you might as well pay the people who are making the media in the first place instead of some rando that had nothing to do with it.

I am confused then what is Congress' problem here?

The data is also available to DJI, and through them the CCP.

On a laboratory bench in Cambridge, Massachusetts

For now, the concrete supercapacitor can store a little under 300 watt-hours per cubic metre

OK then, so this is incredibly far from being near any real world application

I think 3.5" are usually priced better per tb than 2.5" drives and performance is usually better too. So unless you feel like burning money for an inferior solution, are have some space constraints that doesn't allow 3.5" drives, I wouldn't go with 2.5" drives. They're more energy efficient though, but you'd need a fuckton of drives for that to make a worthwhile difference in your power bill.

This is how I feel about all bands/artists...they may have a one or two songs that I like and the rest of their discography is not something I want to listen to at all.

They absolutely did. I used to pirate all my media 20 years ago, but then streaming became so convenient and relatively cheap that I just didn't bother with it anymore.

Now, they've pretty much pushed me back out to sea with their ever increasing prices and decreasing content that's worth watching. I'm not paying $15-20 per service, when they insist on fragmenting it to hell so I'd need 3-4 subscriptions to watch the things I want.

It definitely didn't leave me with the feeling that my manager was happy with me or my work.

Exactly how he wanted it. A worker uncertain of their skill or value is much more likely to do whatever they want, and at a lower salary.
