I had to submit to this BS on the 4th, they just gonna delete it and say "oops?" If my info leaks, how will the compensate me? Let me guess: they won't and will claim immunity. Meanwhile, my data will be all out there. Wonderful.

FTA: "The IRS wants to start this extra verification procedure this summer. " I had to do this just last week. So it's already being rolled out.

If you try youtube-dl to download a copy of any random video, it works, but if the video is protected by DRM the download will fail, even if logged in. But it plays just fine in YT's player (on Chrome). So, why doesn't the record industry just demand all their files be DRMed on YT? The ball is in their court. Literally.

How all these dumb-ass "challenges" all originate on TikTok?... That shit should be force-uninstalled from every mobile device in the Western hemisphere.

I give it 6 months after launch before Trump decides to close it down. The man is a miserable failure at damn near everything, and this will follow the way of his "university", his steaks, and everything else. Hell, this dude couldn't even run a profit on a casino! LOL WUT?

A smart phone that all apps that aren't part of the core OS can be completely removed and uninstalled. Not just "deactivated," but literally no longer present...without the need of rooting your phone. Yes, I get it, apps like Facebook (*barf!*) help keep the cost down, but frankly, I could give a rat less. I'd pay more for a phone that didn't have all that crap on it. Also, why is it no matter how much storage I buy on my phone....50% of it is listed as "system"? 32MB phone.... 16 is "system".... 64MB phone....32 is "system." It's like the damn thing grows to accommodate the area it has, and that's annoying.

So, you're saying, an otherwise normal Android tablet isn't supposed to work like one? That's, and forgive me, dumb as fuck. Tablets, branded or not, should do that which tablets do. What all tablets should do. Oh, and their built-in Kindle app sucks too. There's a whole discussion about how crappy they are with local vs. cloud storage...it's a mess.

Every Kindle device I've owned (and there have been several) have been steaming, hot, piles of crap. Slow, crappy interface, terrible app store functionality....just garbage. I don't care how cool they make the interface look. I want the thing to be responsive, I want it to not lock up when trying to play YouTube videos, I want it to...you know...WORK. Amazon Kindle ... you are not welcome in my home. I'll stick with other tablets that actually function. I had a junky RCA tablet that worked better (and was still a POS) than any Kindle. That's orders of magnitude of "sad".

Anime ruins everything it touches, so this will be crap.

They're totally, unabashedly, ginormously fucked. Take them to court. They can't win. This is a slam, fucking, dunk for any lawyer worth a shit. Nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure (that they don't pull this bullshit again.)

The Mars rover's MOXIE experiment proved that we can (a) sequester CO2 from the atmosphere...hell, we did it on another planet even. So, why not build huge MOXIE stations here, say 4 on each continent, and start pulling CO2 from the air, releasing the oxygen, converting the CO via H2O reaction to methane, then storing the methane for other uses. Hell, we could even burn off the methane, which produces water vapor and CO2, and the CO2 could be fed back into the system. Expensive? Yep! But expense is meaningless when the alternative is we all die. Choose one.

May I submit: An Abyss of Black Holes.

THIS is why lobbying needs to be outlawed. Who do these fucks work for? PROTIP: it's not us.

That will be all the "proof" companies like Nestle will require to say "See? It's not a 'right' to water, it's a product!" And the cost will increase because...F U... that's why.

They keep "fact checking him," which is a nice way of saying he's tired of being called out on his BS and lies. And he doesn't like it. This is just Don loving on Don. This motherfucker is the modern Narcissus.
