If Apple supports any "right to repair" bill, it's probably not entirely what you want.

It's now a fashion statement to have cordless white blobs in your ears. So cool.

I mean... if Apple makes it a shit platform to support, this isn't a surprise. Valve can control the entire environment on Linux. If something goes wrong, they can look at the code of the kernel. On Mac, they have to ask Apple for support. For <1% of the player-base, that's way too much of a hassle.

Even longer then. Why does it seem like people are surprised about yet another attack? It's not really new.

If a country with a population of around a million (or even as small as 100k) enacted UBI I would take those results to be representative of a societal change.

I honestly doubt you would. The typical arguments of:

  • it's not comparable to a country of 350M, they're barely as big as $cityWithOver1Million
  • their society is very different from ours
  • their implementation is different from what we could ever manage
  • the circumstances were different

would come around.

You're making exemplary conservative arguments to stalemate progress by creating a chicken and egg problem.

  • Won't accept results of change in a small environment because they aren't representative of change in large environment
  • Demand results of change in a large environment before applying them to large environment
  • Won't apply changes to large environment because results of change in large environment don't exist

You obviously haven't even looked at the wikipedia article about the studies. Your assumption has been proven wrong many times.

Capital was coined by Marx? Say what?

First recorded in 1175–1225; Middle English; (adjective) from Anglo-French or directly from Latin capitālis “of the head” (capit-, stem of caput “head” + -ālis adjective suffix; see -al1); (noun) from Medieval Latin capitāle “wealth,” noun use of neuter of the adjective capitālis

Hopefully people in India are spreading the world of Linux. Blessed they be.
