You don't need to mention them by name.
I switched nearly two decades ago after I used a freeware network monitor on Windows and realized that it was making dozens of silent TCP connections online. Some were to Microsoft, while others were to unknown third parties. Just imagine your personal machine doing this!
Linux is actually easy to use these days. Installation is often easier than windows and hardware just works most of the time. Despite that, people have a habit of exaggerating the difficulties in using Linux or BSD. They very often feel like excuses to avoid checking it out.
If you want any change in this, you should formally express your concern using A2A missiles. If they protest, formally deny it. This is what they do after all, isn't it?
I have heard this tape. While it's distressing, it's something worth hearing. Not because it's pleasant to listen to people die. But because it's worth remembering their pain so that those mistakes are never repeated again.
Remember that the engineers, technicians and other support staff of Apollo 1 didn't have the option of turning off the audio either (I listened to it to partially feel what they felt). They worked feverishly to save their colleagues who were burning to death only a few inches away from them. And to finally reach them to find out that it was all in vain.
This would have been a horrifyingly painful experience for NASA. And it did have an impact. NASA changed in an instant. No effort was spared in keeping the future astronauts safe. So much so that a deeply crippled Apollo 13 still made it back safely. And no lives were ever again lost on the Apollo missions. That's the power of a personal connection to a tragedy. I watch a lot of accident investigation documentaries, including rail, aviation and space. Nothing drives the lessons deep like the depiction of human tragedy.
Just imagine. If only the aircraft manufacturers could see the final moments of the passengers that die in their low quality aircrafts. Perhaps they would try hard to avoid such incidents rather than chase profits at any cost.
RIP: Gus Grissom, Roger Chaffee, Ed White. The bravehearts of Apollo 1.
Please add a single line of description of the software for those who don't know. The name gives no clue.
Where do you shop local? I think the public lost when they let down mom and pop shops in favor of these megacorps. They wouldn't have had the leverage to jack up price gouging and inflation so much otherwise.
This is exactly what was predicted as the result of corporate surveillance and targeted ads. They are part of schemes to extract more revenue from you. Another example is the rising premium for health insurance. But people apparently had "nothing to hide"!
No. Just people fighting for the Darwin awards.
I wouldn't call idiocy leading to ER admissions as 'blown out of proportions'. That aside, I still don't understand what you prove by consuming something as distasteful as tide pods.
How about religion-backed traditional garlic treatment? Not joking. A lot of pseudoscience is backed by dogma.
They diverted the funding for AI? AI is already a way for rich crooks to steal and make money off public information, if not an outright hype that grifters employ to attract funding for their devious pursuits. None of this is AI's fault. But politicians should understand the type of people they are funding, instead of ignorantly falling for buzzwords.
