My friends high end sony system with square speakers (yeah I'm old) kept poping the speaker coils out of their sockets at 70% power. His 600$ sony dvd player would not play burned DVDs. My Phillips amp would power my realistic home made speakers up to 100% and they could still take a lot more (200W RMS amp and 275W designed speakers) and my weird named 65$ DVD would even play DIVX movies on burned DVDs. Fuck Sony.

If I open a store in my town and start selling fake crap I can't go and say "sorry not my fault I'm just a reseller you need to deal with the guy who sold it to me" I will be brought to court and loose why is Amazon allowed to sell fakes and non UL complient equipment?

I see a huge difference in picture quality especially at night in my latest phone. And I now kind of like the bump on my pixel 8, I used to use my pinky to prevent the phone from slipping down and it got to a point where it hurts due to the phone weight. But with the pixel 8 I often use the bump with all my fingers holding the weight preventing my pinky from being torn away.

No never created an account wit IRS or DMV as I am not American. And fir all the bit leaks that happened recently I for sure don't want a company in charge of verifying people ID.

Age restriction on cigarettes and alcohol is not for kids that are not parented but to prevent companies abusing kids to make more profit wich is why I say selling of internet connected devices and internet connection should be done to adults only. But don't force me to give companies all my personal data.

That is a whole other problem, kids need to have a tutor, mabe instead of putting money on business that will leak our data just to put fake barriers on a site we should put that money into helping the kids that are left to their own devices.

Just dont give internet connected devices to kids and your problems are solved. I would agree with company being forced to verify the age of a person before signing a internet contract. Don't give open access to internet to kids it's just like sending them anywhere in the world alone.

Your argument does not make sense. I defend my kid from school shooting by not living in the States. Don't give guns to deranged people and most of your problems with school shooting is solved.

I do not have to give my ID when I walk around a school.

Letting a kid roam on the internet is more like giving them blank plane tickets than sending them to school.

[โ€“] VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 month ago

Would you give your kids blank plane tickets for them to go anywhere in the world alone ?

I guess not, then don't give them a internet connected device without surveillance. It's YOUR responsibility to keep YOUR kids safe not mine. I don't want to be forced to give MY ID online for YOUR kids to be loose on the internet as much as I don't want to see your kids roaming alone anywhere they feel like.

Edit2 : Apparently I HAVE to use the original shitty title from the article.

Grocery theft is on the rise but we won't tax the rich or bring back down the prices, we will jail those in need instead.

Money is better spent in the police forces anyway /s
