That’s like one decently sized house with a yard and garage in a good neighborhood in the bay area

All the more reason email and banking should be handled by the post office.

So they want bigger government with more regulation?

So Microsoft exec stating what most people have been saying already is newsworthy.

You never understood why some people are not grifters?

Phones should have separate storage for their OS so that when you buy a specific phone with specific storage it actually is that much storage available to the user

Android used to work kinda like that. You got the system partition that's a fixed size, and that's it. You also had the data partition for apps and their data on the same internal flash. For everything else, you inserted a micro SD card. You could move some apps to the SD card as well.

Shouldn’t everyone have nukes then, for maximum peace?

That's been proposed before btw and game theorists can justify that as being more stable in some ways. However it reduces the power of the incumbents (so why let it happen?) and the odds of having an irrational actor with nukes goes up.

You want people with a lot to lose in a nuclear war to have nuclear weapons, and to make sure no-one else does.

In theory, yes, because nobody would want to launch first because they'd get obliterated. However, it only takes one country to not be rational.

Nuke-owning countries' leadership seems to have become more and more unhinged and less rational, predictable, or honorable over time. Putin already threatened to use nukes if the conflict they caused themselves crossed their own border. It didn't happen, but the threat was there. The US' leadership is unhinged and irrational. etc.


no, only the 'big rational ones', they think carefully.. that why Iran cannot have, and so as NK, but NK is a mistake because they(china,USA...) failed to prevent NK have it.

Same folks that still use Yahoo or Ask

Not as expensive as a Starbucks habit

weird that bottom of feet don't exist

Even weirder that it doesn't show the lungs or they belong to some other group than the rest of the respiratory system.
