I think it's set up this way so buyers can't get back to Sony to ask for a free replacement if the media can't be used anymore.

Let's say you buy a disk that contains a movie. You din't buy the right to watch that movie forever, because if the disk breaks, you need to buy a new copy.

However, we could argue that this is just a symptom of a short industry... If my backpack breaks, even after 10 years, the company will replace it free of charge!

Ok... I like the interface of StremIO, which looks like a service aggregator (ie I can open the movie on a streaming service i have access to), but I don't like the fact that I can't pre-download and seed less popular files. It supports debrid services, but from the technical description, thesec seems to be leech-equivalent to seedboxes...

What would be a good drop -in replacement? Something that works on google TVs and is easy to maintain?

They could try to compensate the imbalance by explicitly asking for the lesser represented classes in the data... It's an idea, not quite bad but not quite good either because of the problems you mentioned.

Didn't you know? This cloud provider offers lead-free, gluten-free computing services without antibiotics! Also it's not tested on animals!

It's a trick to start creating a water market. It will slowly and subtly grow until any drinkable water that doesn't taste like shit will be considered "fine water".

Then, you'll get capitalists assholes saying that anything better than shit water should not be considered a right...

Last step, "diable" is the devil in French. Therefore the last text more or less means "OCR the text into the devil's text"

That must be why Quebec MPs voted themselves a 30% increase...

You'll get there only to find a bottle of Canadian whisky and some Danish vikings drinking it...

"No true homeless..."

That's true! I have lots of friends that do competitive cycling and they're all nice people. When they train, they avoid cities.

The problematic ones are those who run red lights, who cut and curse at recreationsl cyclists in city bike laces while going 50km/h. They almost always wear skin tight shorts and an expensive-looking helmet.

That being said, I think we can agree that every generalization is bad!

Lycra ads-on-butts people are the BMW of bikers.

My secret is that I know I'm actually the only real human, and everybody else are aliens posing as humans to study my behavior. That's why I purposefully make random decisions and actions from time to time, to throw them off.

I still have to figure out if I'm the last human alive, if every remaining human is being studied like me, or if there is a real human society somewhere.

Thanks for the news, you made my day! I have an 8 which still works very well. I was on the verge of getting a 10 while I still could...

Discontinued after the 10 🥲

Yeah, I suppose my second sentence is somewhat diminitive... The article itself is more of a "dossier" than a single article, and gatekeeping discussions only for those who read the full article(s) kind of discourages discussions on the topic.

The first thing I wanted to convey is that they're trying to redefine something that already exists. Today I learned that "atheism" has such a loaded baggage to you and the article's authors that they're is a need for a new word!

Too me, that is quite the revelation: everything I read in the article is exactly what I understand to be "atheism"! I've known that in some places on the world, it can be worst to be atheist than to be of the "wrong" religion... I hope using "the none phenomena" will help these people be safer...

They're taking about atheists. That's it.

Edit: Basically, this is a click-bait title where they intentionally keep the title's meaning mysterious, like it's a new viral trend or something dangerous. They define:

These so-called “nones" — atheists, agnostics, or nothing in particular —

When the completed manuscript exceeded 600,000 words, Cerf asked Rand to make cuts, but backed off when she compared the idea to cutting the Bible.

Wow, I didn't know this author, and it seems I wasn't missing much.

One thing I know about this country is that our rights only move forward when the Liberals are scared of being outvoted by the Tories!

Women only got the right to vote because Liberals figured it would help them best the Cons...

It would be the perfect time for the Liberals to change polling method, now that they're about to lose yet still have the NDP's backing.

It's been many years since I was invited with particle physics, so it's a bit muddled in my memory... i could be wrong on the details here. It could be the CP symmetry instead of the CPT symmetry.

It's not that positrons go back in time, but more like "if an electron went backwards in time, it would look exactly like a position". The Feynman diagram of an electron and position annihilaton is the same as that of an electron bouncing on photons, expect the angle is rotated such that the electron bounces backwards in time.
