  • Not just that. Apple themselves beat Microsoft where they reverse engineered MS Office and played the cat and mouse game long enough that Microsoft released their office file format specifications publicly for everyone as a standardized format.

  • How is the piracy experience on an iPad ?
  • iPad works more like a terminal environment than a standalone device. Don't expect running piracy software directly on it, but you get a pretty good experience connecting to your home server.

  • Plagiarism is obviously a word with very strong negative connotations. If you want to discuss the technology and it's differences between a different solution that tries to solve the same problem and not accuse someone of stealing, it's usually best not to use this type of language in general.

    Now Android and Windows devices aren't safe from Flipper Zero either
  • It's a toy for people who are interested in hacking/pentesting. Sure, you can do everything it does with a phone, but without the toy like aspects.

    Tbh you can do literally everything that a PC can with a phone. Doesn't mean that a phone is the most fun to use for whatever you're trying to use it for.

  • Where To Find Actually Good Search Engines?
  • Yeah, I've read around their documentation and they have a pretty compelling reason why one should prefer search engines where you directly pay to the search provider instead of relying on third parties such as advertisers to pay for your search usage.

  • Is anyone else like 10 times more likely to play a game they pirated versus one they bought?
  • Honestly these days it's much more difficult to find a good pirate copy compared to getting a working copy you pay for that yeah, if I put in the effort to pirate a game, I'm going to play it. Though I do enjoy having a really large steam library, so I usually just buy something just so it grows.

  • Nintendo Switch Successor Rumored To Have Been Shown To Press/Devs At Gamescom
  • Dual screen was a great feature with a handheld with two tiny screens. They tried it with WiiU on the home console and it was a massive failure. The Switch maybe doesn't have dual screens, but the single screen is bigger than even the 3ds screens combined and they managed to port almost all WiiU exclusives to it with minimum loss of functionality.

    Maybe the revolutionary feature was the added screen real estate the dual screens allowed for instead of there just being two screens.

  • A decentralized, blockchain-based messaging network for safer communications
  • But you don't want that either. This opens up a way for people to demand others to prove they voted a certain way - I.e. abusive family could force all family members to vote the same. Paper ballots shouldn't ever be identifiable back to anyone.

  • A decentralized, blockchain-based messaging network for safer communications
  • If you need the person to walk somewhere, physically show a voter ID to someone to be let into a private area where they receive their private key in a machine for them to then vote remotely, wouldn't it be easier just to remove the entire technology part of the equation and just make them put a piece of paper inside an envelope in that private area, so that they can then put that piece of paper into a public ballot box right after?

    Electronic voting is a bad idea in general, blockchain isn't going to fix that.

  • Has YouTube Blocked Your Adblocker Yet??
  • I pay for premium.

    I spend like 20x time on YouTube compared to other premium streaming services, knowing the money at least partially goes to the creators and that it's usually a much larger source of revenue than the midroll ads (and the fact I spend like 40% of my watch time on an iPad) makes it pretty worth it to me. Other than that I use uBlock on medium/high, but if there was an extention that could skip the sponsor segments inside the videos themselves I'd use it in a heartbeat.
