There was an initial reaction from Linus on his forums where he massively doubled down on his stance that he had not done anything wrong with the review model LTT had auctioned off without permission (I can't remember the name of the company). He had even accused GN of not following "journalistic standards" by not giving LTT a chance to put their side forward.

This was met with another video from GN, and overall criticism over the dismissive attitude Linus was displaying. That's when they came out with a YT video, admitting their numerous faults, and Linus himself admitted that the way he responded on the forum was not acceptable.

Pretty much doubled down initially, till they realised that they're in actual deep waters.

Some context regarding this meme. The police officer is a war veteran, who probably has massive PTSD and reacted accordingly.

Now why the hell would the police service hire a guy who is clearly unfit for service is a major American moment.

The Gaza genocide did not start on Oct 7, much like the Russian incursion on Unkraine did not start in Jan 2022. Both of those are tremendous blights on human rights and should be equally condemned.

Of course, voting for Biden is the only stable option as much as one may lament that it shouldn't be.

Actually, the whole Privacy part is one of the biggest gimmicks Apple has ever pulled.

Sure, it doesn't allow Meta and Google to not allow data collection, but research indicates Apple continues to collect the same amount of data. In the long run, I'm sure that Apple would also use this data to serve ads in their own way, just that they'll call it "iAds", and fanboys would cream their pants

Nintendo lawyers where you at?

Let's follow your train of thought here.

Everyone makes the "smart" choice of looking into their career, and determine it based on the pay scale.

1. Now we have a dearth of people doing the jobs with low pay, but still crucial to our society.

2. Do you think there exists a demand for everyone to enter into the higher paying work force?

I'd rather not share fake news, even if for the right intentions. Reduces credibility, defeats the purpose.

Ehh, that's ok. Slide out keyboards aside, having an on-display keyboard is a better idea by and large.

Did everyone forget the one of the reasons the show from Apple was cancelled was Stewart wanted to interview Lina Khan (then head of FCC) while she was raising a case against Apple

I mean, a rapist actually became the President, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wonder if it has anything to do with PRC's punishment towards citizens who have been critical of their government. Who knows man.

The other candidate will also support the Gaza genocide. Again, it's unfortunate that both candidates are evil. And supporting the lesser evil is a bad long term strategy.

But, here we are.

Anecdotal evidence, but I swapped out Google for DDG about 5-6 years back and haven't missed it. I do use Google sometimes but it's once in 4-5 months when DDG fails me, which is acceptable to me.

Nope, that would be horrible.

One of the biggest draws of YouTube is that anyone can go and upload their stuff. We literally have youtubers who started out in their rooms with a webcam, and became big because of the quality of their stuff. This would put a barrier of entry for new youtubers to enter.

Naah. Within a controlled, small environment it works.

At a scale where the product influences how people see reality then it doesnt work.

I guess the real show of stupidity was how we let a tech startup shape our vision of reality itself.

It's not privacy but exclusivity of data collection to apple

10/10

Wasn't the ICEblock app Apple only, or was their an Android version of the app as well?

Sorry if my message didn't convey this.

I didn't ask for sympathy for anyone on this. It's more towards the process is absolutely fucking broken. It was obvious that something like that can happen to any person with more than 2 brain cells. And yet, the decisions we were made to put a person in a situation where he was bound to fail.

Not OP, but dogmatic reverence of men, and rampant misogyny.

Older political leaders have said things on like "Boys make these kind of mistakes, girls should be more careful" over a case of rape that made national news in the past.

We wish things would change, but the lax attitude towards woman safety, and autonomy is a battle that needs to be fought daily.
