  • It doesn't matter though, he's not the president and is not involved in any politicalmatters. Sure, he should be investigated if he did something wrong, but why is that relevant?

  • Google calls Drive data loss “fixed,” locks forum threads saying otherwise

  • How is acknowledging a bad connection by your ISP contrarian? Are you saying his problems do not exist?

  • Trump says he'll be a dictator only 'on day one' if elected

  • Don't know... I hope you are right, but too many people were saying the same in 2016

  • If purchasing isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t stealing

  • You were the one who quoted that wage theft is a form or fraud, so I'm not sure what's your point. Yes, some theft can be fraud... but still theft.

  • Stealing services doesn't necessarily have to do with copyright infringement.

    My point is that OP over simplification of theft is not even worth considering, from a legal or personal point of view.

  • So salary theft by employers is not really theft. Got it.

  • WhatsApp is one step closer to adding email address verification

    Jump

  • Yeah, they do, that's what living in a society is, not everyone does as you want, and you have to compromise.I have my own choices (in other aspects) which they probably have to live with. But I'm not going to ghost my mum (and close family) just because she uses WhatsApp, that's plain entitlement and immaturity.

    I can't contact my mum via msm (not the same country), and are you seriously suggesting email over chat messages? They serve two different purposes.

  • Google admits Spotify pays no Play Store fees because of a secret deal | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • As a Spotify user, I'm not really ok with how much they pay artists... But I don't use Spotify for "streaming" even though I stream a lot from them, I use it to discover new music, find obscure bands, their algorithm is amazing at that.

    I could easily selfhost as you suggested, but then it would be my own music bubble.

    I go to concerts and buy merchandise as much as possible when I want to support an artist.

  • This is not your uncle selling an old TV to your neighbour, this impacts lots of consumers and other businesses.

    As a consumer I'm a part of the business , so you are actually advocating people to be involved, even though you are contradicting your self because I don't think you understand the implications of "minding your own business".

  • Work use. The are hardware requirements (XRD machines, potentiostats, CNC machining) and software requirements (3D design). My workshop asks for files in Autodesk Inventor, if I send it in any other format, they just won't fabricate my pieces, and I completely understand, who am I to change the workflow of a complete department just because I refuse to use Inventor (which is provided at work).

  • Read my other replies. 1 and 2 don't really work, the performance of using wine, or the alternatives, is just not there, if you do amateur work, maybe that's fine, but for professional collaborative work, good luck using freecad instead of autocad.

    Personally, I use 3 and 4, but you have to understand that the regular user is not going to go through that much hassle to set up a virtual machine.

  • Nah man, I value way more the contact with my mum and close friends than refusing to use an stupid app.

    If my mum is in trouble and try to message me via WhatsApp: "sorry mum, I don't answer WhatsApp messages, good luck next time trying to get someone to help you". Nah man, that's so shitty.

  • Data plans exists, but there is no good middle ground. You have the unlimited 4g connection for 20 USD , or the WhatsApp only for a few dollars.

    Most of the people, specially older age or people who already have unlimited data from work phones, do not need 4g unlimited connection, so why spend extra 15 USD (which is a lot in latin America), if you can still communicate perfectly fine via WhatsApp.

  • WhatsApp is one step closer to adding email address verification

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's small little thing, that everyone uses it. I've been waiting to get away from WhatsApp for years, but I would be an idiot to say that I can get away from it and still communicate with my family and friends via text.

  • So you can say Yucatan is Mexico, the same way Ubuntu is Linux. Or the same way people say Windows, instead of Microsoft Windows NT.

    OP is technically correct, but that's not how people express themselves in real life, there's an unspoken understanding in the community that when someone says Linux (when talking in a general sense), there's no way they are referring to the kernel only.

  • I use linux 50% of my time, I'm not going to ditch my job so I can use it 100%, lol. What kind of advice is that for someone who wants to use linux.

  • I mean, that's what I do. Will I be able to convince my 60 yo colleague that had been using the same workflow for decades? No, not a chance.

  • That's my point, I use linux as much as I can, but if 80% of your colleagues use Windows... You don't have much choice.
