For sure. Does anyone know if these things are also easily hackable? Like, is the software running them available and can it be updated?

Indeed, although I would say it's a more broad lack of cognitive ability. Low empathy, low intelligence and low capacity for abstract and critical thought. All of these make them easy to manipulate.

Sadly, some of them have issues so severe that they will even reject their own children.

Luckily, this father was capable of letting the love of his child overcome.

Sometimes I think that someone should start some kind of religion to help manipulate them in a way that they love their children, neighbours and love peace.

Then I think, that Jesus dude already tried, but with mixed results.

Yep. The sad fact is that if there was no eclipse, she would have rationalized it differently and blamed something else.

Perhaps a storm, the full moon, the spoiled milk in her fridge, etc.

As a mobile user, I'm just stuck with the stock YouTube app.

I do miss Vanced :-(

Shouldn't Space Jam get tossed in the R Kelly panel?

I can't let this fly.

I don't think it's a conspiracy, but it is definitely odd.

In my opinion, the headline is very clear.

I'm accounting for a domain name and sufficient bandwidth.

I figure 10 TB per month should be enough.

The $500 is a conservative estimate.

I often do miss the internet of the old days.

Hosting a modern day gamefaqs would cost $500 per year or so.

I guess a wiki would be easier to offer version control, links and images for the author.

Maybe that would be $1000 a year.

Yubikey also has usb-c versions with compliant plugs.

Honestly, I think for many countries it might require very far reaching constitutional changes to actually tax the ultra wealthy.

For the USA, an amendment was needed to introduce the income tax.

Another amendment might be needed to introduce a wealth tax.

And a legal distinction would need to be made between the property of the common man vs. the ultra wealthy.

That 14th house, yacht and the hundreds of billions of the billionaire currently enjoy the same legal protections as the owner-occupied single family home and that family's meagre savings account and the car they need to get to work.
