Because even if this was implemented, rich assholes will find ways around it.
That house? Oh it’s owned by an LLC that rents it from the company I own for $1a month, I then house sit as a second job for $1 a month.
That car? Same deal.
My internet, home phone, electricity, water, insurance and all other home expenses? Paid for by my company as part of WFH rules for executives.
I also have regular business meetings in Hawaii and other overseas locations for business purposes.
Regarding the title thing. Lots of news sites will have multiple titles that get swapped at random. The different wordings increase the click through rate. You might not be interested in title 1,2 or 3, but title 4 gets you to click.
But as for change logs for the actual article, none that I know of. The best you normally see is something like “last edited 5 minutes ago”
Stakeholders that want a payout will demand the data be sold to the highest bidder.
And other companies will probably be interested in said data and willing to buy.
I would like for it to be destroyed as well, but capitalism going to capitalism.
Yep, companies give “unlimited PTO” because it’s a way to actually reduce the amount of PTO employees take.
Give them 20 days PTO/year? They’ll take around 20 a year.
Give them unlimited PTO? They need to justify every bit of PTO, so probably only get to take 4 or 5 for important days.
Upside: not fired.
Downside: have to do work.
Upside: make money
Downside: not enough money
Yep, Gucci and Louis Vuitton on the prowl.
Make sure you get a reputable VPN to avoid issues with any “questionably acquired” content.
Honestly, this does explain why vendors like HP seem to have every possible combo of device available in their business class laptops as Intel CPU options, but it’s sometimes like pulling teeth to get equivalent AMD options.
It’s sometimes a PITA if a client specifically wants an AMD machine for some reason.
Surprised they didn’t lean into it. “Just lost your job? More time to play games!”
Instructions unclear, treated otters well.
If a school provides a device to a student to take home there’s two possible outcomes.
They provide a managed device, and with any management tool, there’s a way to invade privacy, intended or not.
They provide an unmanaged device and get sued by parents for letting their"innocent snowflake" access unwanted content.
In both instances there’s something to legitimately complain about, but I still say the first option is the better one. The problem comes with oversight and auditing on the use of those management tools.
Not to mention that even with the second option of unmanaged devices, invasion of privacy can still occur if students are stupid enough to use the school provided accounts (Google, 365,etc)
Remember kids, if someone offers you drugs, say “yes thank you” because drugs are expensive.
Capacitors replacing batteries like this, similar to nuclear fusion power, is always only X years away.
Because many people are not smart. If they buy a 65w charger and see only 60w being pulled they’ll complain that either the charger or phone is defective and want a refund.
I would like to see it as an option to enable, at the moment though I just have a few cables that measure/display this for me. It’s a useful basic troubleshooting tool with laptops and phones. If you plug them in and dont see any current or only 0.1w, you know there’s a problem with the device getting power.

Fun, in a creepy way.
Yarrrrrr indeed
Companies see that as a mistake. They want you on a subscription for life that they can arbitrarily change at any time.
Profits not increasing enough for this quarter? Better cut content, increase prices, increase the number of ads.
Profits increased amazingly this quarter? Better cut content, increase prices, increase the number of ads.
Profits down? Better cut content, increase prices, increase the number of ads, and start adding extra paywalls to some content
They want you to own nothing. Oh you unsubscribed? Sorry even the content you paid extra to unlock was only available while your subscription continued, you will need to start your subscription again and then pay to unlock the content again.
A show isn’t popular enough? Better write it off, pull it from all distribution so you can claim it as a tax write off
Honestly might be part of it, by going out of spec on the timestamps it probably let’s them more easily insert different length ads
They make a bunch of the other chips that go into computer devices, and from what I understand it’s binary blob or nothing for a lot of it?
At least two.
