Why did people begin to pirate in the first place again?

The funniest thing about making Edgium your new default browser is Microsoft asking if you're sure you don't want to try out (the old) Edge.

^ Idiotic post of the day award.

"I’ve seen firsthand the devastating impact of guns." Maybe they should remove all them too. Gears 5 is going to be woke trash. Mark my words.

And for that short while, the world was a better place.

Tax avoidance by American companies is rife in Europe. Even Apple came unstuck when their little arrangement with the Irish government was ruled illegal which forced them to pay the €14.3 billion they owed. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-45566364

Are they getting that desperate trying to get people to buy their new phones ??? This has got to be a joke, surely ? Not a lot of innovation coming out at Apple for the past few years...

I prefer no logo at all. It's less conspicuous and less chance of someone stealing your expensive phone.

Wow, violence everywhere and smoking is the concerning part.

You have no time for communicating with your peers at work? That sounds pretty sad mate...

Maybe I'm just getting old but all I see is a bunch of expensive junk that no one really needs.

And thus continues.... The Pussification of America.

Not high enough. Privacy violations should make a CEO have nightmares while sleeping, with thoughts of going bankrupted. This is change you’d find under a sofa cushion for Facebook.

Gaming disorder is a medical condition now. The WHO should raise this concern with the studio and request them to remove all references to gaming and make it a movie instead.

And none of value was lost XD

Edge ... now with Electrolytes! It has what corporations NEED.

You could argue that if they paid the tax they owed in the first place then countries wouldn't be looking to find new ways to get them to stump up cash. If the companies are really that upset then don't trade in France.

And people mock Apple for their "walled garden" approach... Apple thinks they can fix stupid. Sadly, they're not exactly wrong. You cannot fix stupidity been too! You win, I feel dumber after reading your illegible comment.

25 million people need to pay more attention.

Oh look, another chance for a bunch of the same people to say for the 457th time how much they hate auto-updates.

still don't understand why OEMs bother with anything on the back let alone color variations since most people put their phone in a case now a days. Black and white variants should be all that's needed; anything else is mostly pointless as you will never see the back once a case is on.

wont be nostalgia trend until they release an Apple ][e mini with oregon trail and word munchers

Same here. Sorry, but word processors are like can openers. Once they reach a certain feature level I'm good for life. And word processors happens to be one of those like products. To pay $99.00 a year or even $69.00 a year is so laughable to me, I wanna cry. Libre Office, Open Office, FreeOffice. Google Docs. There's just way too many other options that make this offer look overpriced.

Can Microsoft study the effect that's going on here, and reverse it to push an update that automagically adds a video card into your system? Also, how can I download more RAM??

^ Idiotic post of the day award. Not really, either they are a threat to national security or not. If they are then he's right, if they aren't or weren't then what was the point of all of this. Considering the allegations they were throwing against Huawei, nothing they have done so far, as least publicly, has been a fundamental change. Trump is a threat, maybe he should be banned from twitter.

I wish there was a gray mode between the two. Black on white text sucks.

Trump could announce the most amazing technological leap known to mankind and he'd still sound like an absolute clown doing it. It has little to do with what he's announcing and more with how he does it.

He was mocked because it was already part of the Air Force and moving it out of their purview is a waste of resources.

I guess a beefy dude with a cigar is too toxic and masculine for nuGears

They should post this video in an article every time a service goes down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3otBjVZzT0

Well it passed, and the U.S. is not happy. I'm not sure I understand why the government is taking it so personally though, it's not an attack on the country it's an attack against tax dodge- oh wait.

Hate Speech doesn't exist. It's all Free Speech. Just because someone's feelings are hurt won't dictate what I say, when I say it, and how I say or who I say it to. That ladies and gentleman is a god damn fact.

My team started on Slack, migrated to Teams when the company adopted 365. I have no preference tbh, they both have an almost identical feature set, but Teams is "free" whereas we hit the message limits in the free version of Slack after a couple months. At £5.25/seat/month it's over half an entire 365 sub which includes Office and OneDrive and email and Sharepoint and more and more.

that's why apple cases cut a big circle out of the backs... so you have a nice 2 inch diameter unprotected space to show off your shiny apple logo.........

How does that prove that it's not a safe car? Your list from Reddit doesn't distinguish between actual auto-pilot/car faults, or drivers just being stupid. It's not reasonable to demand that it's 100% fool-proof, but you can't possibly deny that those vehicles are massively safer than human controlled cars. How many crashes are there per day in the US? Tens of thousands... How many deaths per day? Over 100... Not sure what you're trying to prove...

Indeed, your post was quite humorous.

meh, the world would be better with out twitter!

I will stick with Libre office and affinity publisher. I do not have to keep constantly paying for them.

There you go, now people have to pay for Trump being an idiot with their jobs. Well done Trump.

Good to see that the internal teams are communicating well.

I'm just waiting for the day Japan does the same thing and introduces the world to their fully functional Gundams.

I've been following these video reviews and would like to see more "unboxing" of the products and less of your face. Please and thank you

Well unless they fine them a high enough amount, so Facebook feels the bite, it won't get their attention to take things more seriously. either way, Facebook has damaged a lot of peoples trust a bit too much as one slip up is one thing but when it happens a fair amount, that pretty much tells us they can't be trusted. p.s. but where does that $5bil go? ; I would rather have it to go people effected then some random gov agency that will pretty much waste it.

Lol if Microsoft is using names like Hide_UWP_version_if_WIN32_present you can tell how popular that platform is. Only thing that's a bit sad is that Win10 was finally getting more cohesive in style. But now the new Edge and the new Gamebar and GamePass app both use totally new and different styles again. Sigh Windows will never have a nice pretty consistent UI. And now that I am ranting why can't developers add an icon with the lightunplated-suffix to their icons so that in WIndows light theme store apps don't have those ugly small square icons. It's copy/paste and change the name ffs

This was botched badly. It looked like a great way to earn more income but you don't want to upset your valuable partners in the process. There is a lot of value in partners using the software and services they are selling internally, it looks like this was not even considered. How do you sell Office 365 competently if your business uses G Suite? Its great that the decision was revered before the upcoming partner conference.

I couldn't disagree with you more. I really like it and its getting better over time as they add features. For a product that was released in 2017 its pretty good and has been very stable for us. It's been very successful in our business and it is used heavy throughout the departments. It's essentially removed our need for desk phones since we use it with our customers when we can as well. Only major thing I miss from Slack is private channels but I believe that is coming soon. I've never understood the resource hog comment. 250-350MB typically isn't a major concern these days. Could it be lighter yes but so could a lot of things. Chrome and Firefox can hit that with just a couple of tabs.

I bought Torchlight 2 whilst waiting for D3, and wasn't disappointed. Not sure I'd go back to TL1 though, even if it's free.

The malware is spread through 9Apps, a third-party apps store ^ Says it all right there.....

so is it safe to say this is the successor to the 3DS?

'Lazy parenting' is often banded around by those who don't have children, or whose children grew up in a different era. Though I do agree that the parents should have been paying closer attention to what their children were doing. This comes down to a mix of things - parents not understanding the risks of in-game purchases and the games industry actively exploiting that lack of understanding and the gullibility/ease of targeting children (especially with 'surprise mechanics'). There needs to be more public awareness about the risks and the games industry needs to be regulated regarding in-game purchases.
