Like, if that worked, wouldn't every company just sell itself to a new shell company once a year and drop every kind of legal liability?

White guy in Japan. A lot of people will assume I don't speak any Japanese (=am a tourist). I've had it many times where after a transaction at a shop, the staff literally tells me "I'm so glad you spoke Japanese, I was so afraid when you walked up since I can't speak English"

The main cause of bitrot in older disks is the organic dyes fading (aside from REALLY cheap disks where delamination was a problem), whereas M-Disc uses an inorganic carbon material

iPhones don't come with those expensive high-bandwidth cables, they come with charging cables that only do USB 2.0

On a warship? They’d have still seen it.

It took 6 months to discover, and even then it was by techs who went to physically install different hardware saw the dish hardware mounted to the ship. That's the real WTF here, how do these ships not have some kind of passive RF scanning/rogue AP detection??

It was seen by regular enlisted people who saw the network on their phones and left comment sheets asking WTF it was, but the person in question snatched up the papers before they got to the officers. If they had hidden the SSID, nobody would have seen it because nobody scans for hidden SSIDs on their phones.

The gatekeeper legislation sets minimums for revenue before you're counted as a gatekeeper, and all the game consoles are too small a market to count.

I'm a millennial but I grew up with Macs which mostly just worked, I don't remember having to do much troubleshooting as a kid.

But for me it was more that there was nothing else to do. You got bored, and messed around with and explored the computer, figuring out what you could make it do. Even once we got internet, it was dialup, so you got online for a bit, checked some things, downloaded some shareware, then disconnected and were stuck with whatever was on the computer again to mess with.

These days the kids have a never-ending social media feed, they have no reason to ever be bored again.
