An armed society is a society where people are looking for someone to shoot.

AI PC sounds like something that will be artificially personal more than anything else.

Just tax revenue and wealth.

Should be illegal. Same as unpaid internships. Pay workers or don’t be a business.

People paid 23andMe to give them the data in the first place. Should be illegal to profit off of other people’s data if they’re not getting paid for it.

While it’s sad to see all these games begin to die a slow death, in reality, many of these titles are incredibly old and on last-gen platforms such as Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3.

Yet much older games are still playable without functionality loss.

You don’t need upgrades to online services. You need to stop locking down games.

Still seems way overpriced. Doesn’t even have name recognition anymore.

Does it even need to be a reboot? It shouldn’t be a franchise unless you’re going to change a lot away from the original story, but then you might as well just have people be immortals living multiple lifetimes in an original setting.

Reroll at what point? “Hey, kids, today you’ll learn about resurrection, and what that booth is for”. There could be billions of people with no clue about the rules, let alone trust in how it would work.

And it’s just that much messier if non-humans are part of the cycle. Hundreds of billions of farm animals and semi-domestic species like rats, and all the rest of nature. They don’t get opt-outs.

Ideally it would mean everyone’s united in improving society for everyone and especially raising minimum standards, when you could end up as anyone.

People shouldn’t be paying to opt out of ads, websites should be paying their users for what they’re exploiting them for.

“More competition” meaning less access, people having to pay for multiple different services instead of having it in one place.

The competition should be about having the best platform, not exclusive content. There’s no reason why the same show couldn’t be on two different platforms. And available globally. Practically, all you really need is more local servers for where there’s more traffic.

For personal use, but corporations trying to profit off of it could be fined 100% of their assets if need be.

I have inside pockets added so that I can deal with the wire issue. Makes for a better place to carry the phone anyway.

And they only ever made one.

AI’s going to kill us off by doing what we do better than us. Consuming resources and producing waste. And we’re already pretty good at it.

Or make some more Zunes.

The alternative is stop traveling such huge distances all the time.

Other than public transportation and filling up the cars with people, instead of having one vehicle per person.

In 2003, the World Wide Web was still in its infancy. Dial-up connections were still the default and YouTube, Facebook, and Gmail had yet to be invented.

I’d argue it had reached its prime. Websites were just websites then, not data harvesting machines.
