When you have a famous kid, I'd guess, but I don't know.

That's why the moon can eclipse the sun when we're also all the same distance apart. Crazy coincidence, but undeniable given this educational material.

I use it as a time-saving device. The hardest part is spotting when it's not actually saving you time, but costing you time in back-and-forth over some little bug. I'm often better off fixing it myself when it gets stuck.

I find it's just like having another developer to bounce ideas off. I don't want it to produce 10k lines of code at a time, I want it to be digestible so I can tell if it's correct.

I didn't realize 7 years old was the cut-off for swearing.

And where were the pagers when they exploded?

Where were the explosives then? One central place?

In this instance I'll blame whoever planted a couple of thousand explosives on people all over the place and detonated them simultaneously without caring who was nearby.

Imagine one of them was on a plane carrying your mother, or one was dropping off their kid at the school your kid goes to, or at the supermarket with you behind them in line.

I'm sure that'll make that girl's friends and remaining family feel much better.

The explosions had to happen at the same time to be effective, and so people who were being attacked were in a variety of places. Detonating explosives in an uncontrolled variety of public places is not precise.

That "even the girl was a daughter of a member of Hezbollah" part got me very angry.

Kids don't deserve to get blown up, even if their parents are mass murderers.

The problem with explosions is that they injure everyone nearby, not just the person with the explosion in their pocket.

I read in a NYT headline that they were pagers with explosives added in.

Here's the article I saw but didn't read.

The wasp stings me to protect its family, I kill the wasp to protect mine. Glad it's me who's the giant.

I feel like I already got way more than my money's worth out of the game, and I'm happy to have moved on to other games. Not every game has to last forever.

I scrolled through all the comments looking for a Red Dwarf reference. Thank you! :-)

Google made this available so they can encourage developers to use it and say "we're not a monopoly, the developers are adding the check" and see how long they can get away with it.

Oh, ok then. Guess who didn't read the article. :-)

What do I do with my PS5 discs if I buy the Pro one day? Are they just unusable? Will I be able to get a digital copy for free since I already paid them for the disc they stopped supporting?

It seems like there's no sane migration path from PS5 with disc drive to the PS5 Pro.

All the things that used to break phones got fixed, mobile OS changes got smaller and smaller, designed obsolescence required something that would get people to buy a new phone every 18 months. So here's a hinge. Here's TWO hinges!

Most people have never installed an operating system, and I've never seen a laptop running Linux for sale at Best Buy or wherever, so there's a huge barrier for entry for the average person.

I'm sure most people would be fine with Linux day to day if it was set up for them, but they're not going to download an ISO, boot from it, and install an OS if they don't have to.

These same people, to stick with my example, might grow delicious tomatoes, better than those you buy at the supermarket. Can anyone grow some tomatoes? Pretty much. Does anyone really have to? No.
