One of the big reasons many people are "okay" with making fun of him. Is that he could basically make it all go away if he just admitted he was wrong.
The whole thing stems from him being so full of himself that he cannot admit any fault, ever. He has been objectively proven wrong many times on several different topics, there are a lot of situations that heavily indicate misconduct, etc. And he literally went on a stream with a licensed psychiatrist who tried to explain some of his faults. To which he laughed and said "Okay, don't see it that way, but alright".
At the end of the day, he seems almost incapable of admitting that he ever did or said anything wrong. So people keep making fun of him, since he's objectively proven wrong repeatedly.
While you're right to be skeptical, if they just wanted to collect data they would have an Android version. And their stated reason for not supporting it, is that push notifications on Android would require them to at store device-IDs, which they want to avoid for privacy reasons and being vulnerable to subpoenas.
Yeah, as long as no other energy is put into the system, nothing will happen. Since the two parts are statically attached to the same object, so no additional movement or energy means no effect on the overall object.
It is basically like putting two nails in a piece of wood and stretching a rubber band between them. Nothing will happen without additional steps
Unless something huge and world-altering happens, there is a 100% chance that it will not disappear in ten years. That would take generations because of the outliers. Although it will massively reduce in usage, and it wouldn't surprise me if non-food stores begin to phase out cash purchases in a decade.
China is already demonstrating this, since pretty much everything is paid for with a phone these days. And some vendors are using "no cash" signs.
Just remember that ctrl+alt+del is a system level interrupt that should always work as long as the kernel is running. Ctrl+shift+esc is not, and won't work in some situations like being used inside a fullscreen frozen program.
Their bones are literally not connected in the same ways ours are. Their spine is connected with muscles instead of ligaments, they have special spinal discs that let them flex further, they have a "floating" clavicle, etc.
He must’ve said something that threatened the people in power.
If you'd taken a few seconds to open the article, that is explained in the opening sentence.
Here it is for the other lazy people:
Saudi authorities arrested al-Jasser in 2018 and seized his devices, believing that he was behind an X, then known as Twitter, account that documented allegations of corruption within the Saudi royal family
That's because all the people who don't have issues, aren't going to make comments about not having issues in a community that is basically dedicated to shitting on it(seriously, check top posts. It's not "haha linux funny meme", it's "windows bad" over and over again).
Even if they do make a commen,like you, they get downvoted by people who like to wallow in misery.
