Oh I know, but I do think anti-trust would require an erection of some sort of barrier. Say, if HDMI required that if HDMI is present, displayport cannot be.

Right now, tv makers are complete free to choose.

Thank the lawmakers, the court probably didn't have a choice

Doesn't mean displayport can't be used there.

If the tv maker wanted to not pay licensing fees, they could put a displayport on the thing. But they don't. Their call.

That's not the point of my comment, the point is that whatever hdmi is, it's got very healthy competition, so there's no real reason for anti-trust stuff

But displayport exists, is widely used and is free?

I'm pretty sure that's kinda exactly what happened though, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just that no one thought to add a logo because engineers don't care about shit like that (at least a lot of them don't)

It's not like that makes the whole thing go away

Just tell me the root issue is capitalism and that it's the root of all evil so we can move on

I don't think even the combined power of all the phones in the plane would be enough to cause interference for anyone

The phone's modem is not powerful enough, it takes a couple watts at most, which is tiiny compared to what a cell tower can output

How do you know that's not part of the plan?

Also, the president can't address the "root cause" or "capitalism", that's the domain of Congress.

Yeah it's not ironic at all, they won't be conscripted in Israel

Man I hate when politicians try to help people

You don't, but they do. It's a no brainer for them, which the parent comment expressed quite clearly

Hilarious well done

Every single post in this comment section is proof people don't learn.

Corporations never do something on a whim. A drastic change like this studied, in detail, by experts, who determine the possible PR impact, possible revenue increases etc.

Netflix is a great example. Everyone and their mom was saying how they'd lose money during the password sharing crackdown. Yet somehow they had a massive increase in subscriptions that quarter.

reported

Fuck that makes too much sense

Not a lawyer but wouldn't it then be a federal issue?

It then depends on what the federal courts think about the embryo=child issue.

Maybe the state could still prosecute you for possible state crimes, but dunno

Are you actually serious?

If you read the whole thing, it's clearly supposed to be a mashup of different aspects of reddit.

Dispatch can't really the crimes down, they won't even know what exactly is going on (just rougly).

It's gonna officer who writes the report.
