  • Why do people want to live long beyond 50 years old?

    Jump

  • Okay, the first recommendation I have for you is to evaluate yourself (or get evaluated) for signs of depression.

    Next, ignoring religion.. and factoring in your use of the word “want,” there are only two reasons to exist:

    1. Procreation (kinda self-defining isn’t it?)
    2. Enjoyment

    Most creatures live only for the first. Humans have a developed pre-frontal cortex. This means we live “for more.” What that is (following the famous wisdom of Curly from city slickers) is up to you.

    So, if you think no one over 50 has anything to offer the next generation (wisdom?) or has the ability to simply enjoy existing, then I have concern for you. If you need someone to explain this, well, I pity you.

  • Your LG TV Might Be Spying on Your Entire Network While You Think It's Turned Off

  • Where is the original citation showing you cannot use a tv disconnected, without setting up an account?

    This whole thread is nonsense.

  • LG smart TVs caught logging audio with screen off and snooping on local devices

  • Just don’t connect it. If you need to stream, use a device you trust.

    If manufacturers start adding cell radios, that’s when we’ll really need to worry.

  • Valid point

  • I saw both links pop up as well. I opted to go with the first, standard, book— webster’s instead of cherry picking.

    The problem is, both meanings are correct. However, the “troublesome” definition is primary.. and look at the example given:

    1 to spread or swarm in or over in a troublesome manner

    shark-infested waters

    2 to live in or on as a parasite

  • Study: Police Reports Miss 96% of Active Phone Use Before Crashes

    Jump

  • It’s voluntary (for now). Not hard for a phone app to see you’re using the device just before the accelerometer detects a crash.

  • Taxpayers Must Not Be on the Hook for Bailing Out the "AI" Industry

  • That’s not how our system works.

    Socialism for the rich, bootstraps for the rest.

  • Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs

    Jump

  • What's being heard is […] complaints tying up agents.

    So it’s being heard. Great, we agree.

  • Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs

    Jump

  • Right. Not heard. That’s why Sony put out this policy, because they can’t hear the complaints.

    I’d say the complaints are working as intended.

    Btw, I don’t have any sony products, so I can’t “stop” giving them money. But the idea that “stopping” further purchases is adequate remuneration for property theft is laughable.

  • Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs

    Jump

  • Well I’m not calling them. But obviously people are being heard. Hence this policy, article, and post.

  • Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs

    Jump

  • If that’s the only way to voice one’s opinion and be heard.

    Any way, I didn’t see a lot of “screaming” in the policy. It says if you bother us too much, we’ll stop listening.

    Which is the actual concern. No one here is saying you should be screaming at people.

    I actual kinda want one…

  • Internal revolt as 'nuts' Apple execs appease Trump: 'There is not a soul who is for it'

    Jump

  • I made a lot of money in Apple stock over this event. I bought in after the verbal assault, and sold after the gifting.

    So it definitely worked.

  • Trump admits tariffs are a tax on America's love for hamburgers and allows 300,000 metric tons of ground beef imports at 'below current market prices'

    Jump

  • No, it’s only on their love. It’s their hate he wants.

  • BBC: “It shouldn’t have taken a lawsuit for Meta to implement safety measures, whistleblower says”

    Jump

  • But no, regulations are bad right? Corporations will police themselves because bad actions will become unprofitable I thought.

    Ohh my head hurts now.

  • Oh yeah- always stupid to peel back the layers of causation. What an intelligent statement and addition to the conversation!

  • There is no crisis. It’s a gap in our framework.

    There isn’t a law that says the Executive must spend the money Congress approved. The intent is, if the Executive is doing a poor job, the People will vote him/her out.

    The People are the problem (because of a decades long assault on education and a concerted brainwashing campaign by the oligarchy).
