Copying something isn't stealing by any legal definition. It's copyright infringement.

> what VW did is absurdly negligible

You're both completely right, while you're completely wrong.

I'd be curious as to how one would define this "non-harmful" media? Seems like the linchpin to our future.

That's a common problem. It's electrical noise in your signal. The only way I know how to completely eliminate it is using external DA/AD converters and connecting them to the PC using optical wires. We used MADI cards back in the studio back in the day.

If people working for Google had a conscience, they would be working to break the system from within. At this point it's leaving the confines of anti-consumerism and entering into a gray area of basic human rights abuse. It's clearly a cartel market with the other big players (Apple and others to a lesser extend) that needed to be broken 10 years ago(if it were possible).

It reminds me a bit of the book "The Constant Soldier", depicting Auschwitz guards and staff enjoying their carefree holiday at a nearby lake resort, before going back to burning people. Might seem like hyperbole, but I think we're rushing towards an ugly plutocracy.

Replace "despite" with "because of" and you'll get a clearer picture. The US is looted. China is holding on because they've managed to reign in their billionaires and their greed towards their own population. The US commoditized it's own population a long time ago, with the whole world watching and shaking it's head. Life expectancy is a good indicator for this.

> you see yourself as being above "the wrong side", whichever side that happens to be

The actually sad thing is, it's pretty damn obvious.

Living in the information age was supposed to mean we'll be better informed. Reading the opinions in this thread just shatters any hope for humanity.

I was using Manjaro i3 X11 for 3 years. A few months back I switched to Arch Hyprland Wayland and so far I am very happy with it. I use it for programming, video editing and gaming. No major inconveniences.

aaand we're censored.

This will break and fracture the web. Unfortunately many here have much to lose by criticizing google. I have just spent 8 hours today updating my apps on the google play store, answering business emails on my google email account and updating customer tracking data on google analytics and updating their google ads.

If they decide to make an example out of me, to teach the rest of you how to behave, I am screwed. I guess that's the "freedom" you US based folks are talking about. This has already been affecting the discourse on sites like HN for a while.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Many Germans feel the fact their Kancler took Blackrock money all those years he was on their supervisory board, makes him too compromised to still be working in their best interest. This expansion is to make sure they don't act on it.

My monthly reminder that I am in fact on reddit.

I notice people being very reserved on their criticisms of Google, knowing Google can end their careers in an instant if it chooses to.

This community.. smh

That's not really ambiguous.

So it didn't happen, because it was *obviously* made up? The problem with such reasoning is, it does not require substantiation. You should find 20 people that also believe it(shouldn't have a problem on this platform) and you can start a religion.

In your search results. It was well over 80 at the time. 80 is the number mostly cited nowadays. I see you're down to 5 damaged. Good for you.

Most people are shunning the covid topic for various reasons, so no one is bringing up the fact that the British torched a lot of their 5G infrastructure to "stop the spread of covid". There were over 80 such arson incidents, but I'm sure this number will go down with time.

The problem is the interaction with wild birds.

What a sad day for open source. I expected better from Linus Torvalds. I know writing more will just get this post removed.

The guy that died of actually curable cancer because he believed in some alternative nonsense cure? I cannot think of a single other reason why Apple would be "hiding a bitcoin manifesto in Macs [...] fueling theories that Steve Jobs was Satoshi Nakamoto".

The Dang is doing a great job at keeping the discussion "civil". As long as one doesn't count certain groups as people.

What the hell are you talking about and how is it related to what I commented?

It's people virtue signaling through racism, like it's demonstrated on social media. Try saying something nice about the Chinese on HN - you'll get your head bitten off by the local mob or your comment removed. Now try saying something bad about them, you just made up and see the difference.

That's just a glimpse of reality you're witnessing for the first time. It can be quite disorienting after decades of indoctrination on US social media. I'm just so sick of all the pro-war propaganda we're getting here in the EU from the US.

The death rattle of a community.

What is this? The argument for censorship in opposite world?
