Don’t know why you got downvoted. I mean, I’d have said “many” rather than “most”, but in principle this is true.

Fair enough, I take your points too. Take it easy, enjoy the GOT, I enjoyed the philosophical wrangling
By that logic:
¹ The use of the word “includes” implies other examples exist. What are they?
Android User here. Never owned any Apple device.
But they’re fucking good quality. Anyone can see that. So what’s the problem?
I like Android 'cos I like dicking about with it. Some people don’t want to dick about with their phones, they want to do other stuff that could be more interesting.
I don’t think anything can.
I think the only way to experience true freedom would be to live, alone, on an unrecognised island, or in a space capsule.
The moment you encountered another person, you’d need to establish rules so you could co-exist in peace. No theft, for example.
At which point you aren’t free.
Horse meat is common in Switzerland. There are restaurants specialising in it.
It’ll be interesting to watch someone establish a bank in a space station.
Inevitable, probably.
For all fallen, from any conflict, from any side.
They gave their lives.
Money buys liberty. Choices buy happiness. If you have more money, you have more choices available to you.
If money bought happiness there would be no sad rich people, but there are plenty of them.
What a shame. A lot of guys will have worked hard on this, perhaps going on a journey from initial enthusiasm at the novel gimmick to anxiety over real-world usability.
Sadly they’re going to lose all their money or, even worse, find a way to pay back the VC.
This will be a tough one to fix. There must be millions upon millions of embedded systems out there with 16-bit epoch burned in.
They’ll all be much tougher to find than “YEAR PIC(99)” in COBOL was.
Y2K wasn’t a problem because thousands upon thousands of programmers worked on it well in advance (including myself) we had source code and plenty of static analysis tools, often homegrown.
The 2038 bugs are already out there…in the wild…their source code nothing but a distant dream.
How would you deal with armed settlers kicking your family out of your home at gunpoint?
Not by saying “What Hitler did to you will be like a picnic”.
Daft cow
As another commenter said, I don’t think cryptography is the main problem.
You’ve got to be able to modulate some numbers out of the radio signal first before you need to be concerned if it’s encrypted or not.
GPS signals from power conserving satellites are so weak that I’d imagine that overwhelming them with noise on all frequencies would be the easy answer. (Although there’s a Big Brain hyper-cunning answer to that…).
So you could hava “Delta decent airlines” and “Delta fucking shit piss-stained seats threadbare aircraft $15 50ml Coke cans” then?
Totally different market sectors.
If it’s all in writing you can’t just force another company to do what you want. What you can do is wriggle, twist and delay until it becomes too expensive for the smaller company to continue to pursue.
However judges are more than well aware of this technique and will allow the plaintiff to accrue costs against Legal Aid (paid for by government).
So what usually happens:
If Small Co is energetic, young and courageous, they may choose to fight to the death. But Legal Aid has a limit…
Thank you, I’ve saved that for a quiet moment.
Presumably the pilot would have been ordered to do this. To what end? Why?
Yes China, we know you want Taiwan back. Either commit to solid action or don’t. This bizarre behaviour just risks lives and expensive aircraft.
Seriously, what’s the point?
Yeah man, that scratches the itch!
They’ve been playing the long game here…encroaching on your Drive storage for years
I’m wagering “Location Data” will be along soon. Then “number of passwords stored”.
Next move will be “number of connected devices”, even though that doesn’t impact how much they have to store.
Finally they will get round to billing you on your number of individual body hairs (shaving in breach of T&Cs).
