What a fucking nightmare. And probably just a first step.

Nothing new here, but reminders seem to be necessary!

Didn't see that coming. In retrospect, I should have noticed that a long time ago... Thanks for the info

It's not needed.

If another law says you have a right to create backups of digital content you own, then two laws are in conflict. Why would dcma have precedence?

No idea about US, but in some countries it would be up to judges, and with enough rulings it would be settled one way or another.

Completely out of the loop, how is the coffee cup emoji sexist? I don!'t have or follow Instagram.

Not sure what's the point here, do you prefer to have one private company providing you everything over multiple companies?

The name "super app" alone terrifies me. I'm explicitly avoiding apps from private companies that are not privacy friendly, so I really don't get why I would like something like wechat.

What is "so many"? Compared to whom?

Given the market size, never?

Good on you to switch to alternatives, it's quite brave to break habits. I don't know your usual work, however I find that banner very nice.

With 16gb of RAM and 102% CPU, the computer shows you a UI on any underlying hardware, any monitor/tv/whatever, handles a moise, keyboard, sound, handles any hardware interruption, probably fetches and sends stuff to the internet, scans your disk to index files so you can search almost instantly through gigabytes of storage whether it's USB sticks, ssds, harddrive, nvme drive. And probably a lot of other stuff I'm forgetting. Meanwhile the other thingy with 4kb ram did college math problems. Impressive for the time yes, but that's it.

Yes, nowadays there is a lot of inefficiency, but that comparison does not, and never did, make sense.
