Sometimes one or the other has a recent updates that causes problems, or a random movie won't play right. It's rare, but since both connect to the same NAS where all of my media is stored, running both is pretty easy and it's nice to have a backup.

What are you talking about? "Innocent until proven guilty" is only relevant from the perspective of the law.

How is that practically different from a user perspective than answers on SO? Either way, I still have to try the suggested solutions to see if they work in my particular situation.

I work for a marketing agency which has a mix of typical office roles (accounting, HR, sales) and industry specific positions (mostly creatives and developers). The former are normally used to Windows from previous jobs or school, and the exact opposite is true of the creative departments. So, choosing which platform each new hire prefers is standard for us (and has been for more than a decade).

Only the nerds in Silicon Valley could come up with a technical solution to such massive problems as income inequality. How can supposedly intelligent people spend more than 1 second thinking that makes any sense?

What's next, are we going to make an app to answer vexing questions like "why does evil exist"?!

Please stop trying to force Sanderson to write a series his style would be horrible at and that he would not enjoy finishing.

Joe Abercrombie and Robin Hobb are still alive, among plenty of other excellent grimdark fantasy authors, if you must insist on naming a successor.

Even if it was a known murderer, there is zero practical reason to engage in a projected car chase.

Not to mention, why do we need armed militia to enforce traffic laws? you know, the thing that usually has a maximum penalty in the hundreds of dollars? These aren't even real crimes! Somehow we figured out that parking meters don't need guns or tasers, but why did we stop there?

They are also worse than random chance at actually doing the one thing police claim technology can't match: drug and bomb sniffing. Dogs just want to go take a nap or get a treat, and their handlers are cops who just think everything is suspicious so of course they get lots of "hits".

It's essentially the same bullshit that hoodwinked the world with Coco the "signing" guerilla for a couple of decades.

The number of people in this post that don't understand the difference between a private company's HR/PR decisions and the actual legal system is shocking.

This has nothing to do with the "justice system". Private companies can make their own decisions.

Do you sit in the writer's room? What information do you have that contradicts what actual writers and actors on the show have said about Roiland's (lack of) involvement in later seasons?

Is it only possible to fire a toxic asshole because he committed crimes?
