Why is it necessary to end subsidies for fossil fuel? Global warming. Might be better to taper it off instead of all at once, but the end result is drastically needed. The very least the world can do is not subsidize something that’s slowly, though more quickly now, going to kill us.


That’s… Unexpected. But necessary.


I went to school just before cell phones became normal. Why is a ban of them on school premises stupid? We were fine without them.


It says you’ll only be able to download stuff from their store.
EDIT: I should have specified that I was talking about the new fire stick. Not whatever they plan to do with existing ones.


I don’t stream anything illegal but I have had to sideload a couple of things that weren’t available to download for whatever reason. I’m not going to give up that ability.
It’s one thing if it was never available because they didn’t want to put in the work. I’m talking very generically here, not about Android or the Fire Stick in particular. Like, no one is really going to be upset that something like an MP3 player or a DVD player can’t run whatever software you want. But if your company is intentionally removing such functionality, you can fuck right off. Greed is the only reason to do it.

It uses 1% of the energy but is still 1000x faster than our current fastest cards? Yea, I’m calling bullshit. It’s either a one off, bullshit, or the next industrial revolution.
EDIT: Also, why do articles insist on using ##x less? You can just say it uses 1% of the energy. It’s so much easier to understand.
Why would anyone worry about tariffs from Trump? They are still going to be illegal. He can’t just shout “national security” and expect that to suffice.
