Indeed.

I even sent them the related news articles about content I've had removed from my own devices, and still they don't seem to care in the least.

So I sent this to my parents, as they've spent hundreds, if not thousands on their Kindle books.

They don't really care. Zero interest in DRM-free backups that I can make them. They don't think it's an issue. They trust Amazon to not mess with their books, and that they'll always have access to wifi and kindles.

If you're giving your printers arms and fingers, that's on you.

Do you keep a gun next to your printer in case it makes a noise you don't recognize?

That's the mark of a true cs student/programmer/software engineer

The hardware guys have it easy.

Why does Sony always feel like you could replace anything they say with "You should consider yourself lucky we allow you to play our games."

Old people and overreacting to normal things because new ideas are scary and confusing

There's plenty in improvised weaponry that can maim or kill you if not done properly,

the only way to find out is from people beforehand passing on knowledge, firsthand experience, or being really good at brainstorming.

You'd probably figure it out before you went to throw, unfortunately if you're rushed (like in active combat areas) you don't always have the luxury of time to figure things out.

Mine can, a little bit.

The trickier question is "can blacksmith forges coopt disaster for massive government overreach and restricting of privacy" but that's way less catchy for the conspiracy theorists.
