Some might even say these are natural rights.

Any used Akai device. Depending on how old I would say get them the new standalone device called the mpc one+. If the price is too steep look for a used midi device from Akai.

Honesty, a used cell phone would make a better pocket operator.

To me it seems like it's impossible because they can't reorder bing search results or mixed them with other results. Or by their own admission because Google doesn't have a search API anymore. Unless I'm misreading. It's basically "Bing or Google wont allow us to use their products how we want to." And "It will take us over 20 years and lots of money to gain market share."

I'm paraphrasing here of course. But it doesn't seem impossible. I mean I don't think it's easy either. I also want to add that I don't want to live in a world with only one search engine.

Can't stop calling it out when you see it. The internet is being used for good and for evil.

My first journey into flash was creating a graphic of a spinning smiley face with a GSW for the game pimp-wars. I didn't know anything about it. But I knew I wanted to make that graphic for my "gang".

How much it sucks depends on why you bought it. if you bought it to control a pointer, NBD. If you got it for the custom buttons, then it's a pretty big deal. Why those features need a server online to work is beyond me. Glad they got a fix though.

Not sure how this was even allowed. I saw a couple of people jump into the back of a Uber that was a Tesla, and could only wonder if the driver told them where the release was in case of emergency.

I honestly don't want to make this political and I'm not a libertarian. But this reminds me of something a libertarian once said. That courts would find companies liable for their crimes and someone would go to jail.

My question: Why isn't someone going to jail, when they have clearly broken a law?

This is awesome! I used to have sega channel as a kid. I never had a game console and a Sega is the only one my mom ever bought us. We were fortunate enough to have cable TV from TCI cable and they had Sega channel. Every month we'd get new games and eventually they changed it to 2 weeks.

I realized this morning, while talking to a coworker. That when we are in person we complain about shit more than we fix it. But when were remote we voice our concerns in the major channels and shit gets fixed.

I'm convinced by keeping people in person less shit will get fixed.
