It probably would have dominated the market for a good while if Sony hadnt taken so long to ship mini disk storage drives for computers.

Waste of good solar.

Also, that’s our drinking water you’re turning into fuel.

You’d think Disney would make it into a Broadway musical like they have with every other Disney property.

I guess that would matter, if anyone actually used Bing.

I wonder if disconnecting the car’s cell antenna would prevent this crap from loading.

Does this car have Android Auto/Carplay? Hopefully while that is active you can’t see the ad either.

I wonder if he could find a company willing to mine the landfill for resources. If the hard drive is in there, that means they don’t recycle the metals first. He might be able to offset some of the risk by selling contents like this, and by selling the methane for electricity generation. Also teaming up with a documentary film maker/selling the rights to his story could make him a little cash. Kinda like what was done with the Atari cartridge burial dig.

Or maybe the current owners do pull the metals first and he’s just screwed because the drive has already been recycled.

Also wondering why this dude didn’t keep backups. Nevermind the bitcoin, what about family photos, tax returns, etc?

That’s a great illustration to go along with the story.

Mozilla’s new logo sucks.

Gotta keep you on that upgrade cycle so you eventually have to buy a new phone. $$

The phone number is for Lt Gov Dan Patrick’s office.

I wonder if they left MLK day on the calendar?

Long term use only. Sounds like you have to put it in the nose to actually cause a problem. Example patient— 50 years of use.

Bizarre that they would scrap it so far along into production.

Wow, that is a strange UI choice for that feature. Nebulous - both figuratively and literally.

Have you tried reader mode in your browser?

For example, here’s the steps on a Mac using Safari (but other browsers like Firefox also have a reader view).

• open Reddit thread in browser
• sort comments
• choose view as reader
• choose file > print
• click save as PDF

You might get better print results by viewing the page from old.reddit.com instead of Reddit.com.

Was CFPB brought about by an act of Congress?

How did it get on your phone? You installed it.

Stupid headline is stupid.

And you could have installed it without needing to throw a giant hissy fit about app stores. It’s a fucking website with an app wrapper. If you want that kind of crap on your phone, tap Share > Add to Home Screen.

Maximizing profit got us into this mess. The problem isn’t with charging less.

The article makes good points about how corporate farming has introduced cruelty and disease. But vaccinations exist, and eggs were cheap before there was mass corporate farming.
