That won't work, because you see... When you are born rich, your parents know people who can make any crime go away. When you are not born rich, you don't get that privilege and you will get made an example.

But converting from a format to another is a lossy process. It's best to just keep whatever original format you have, unless you are creating the images yourself.

Only downside is that only data that people care about right now is being saved. But what seems useless now might become valuable in the future. It's hard to grasp how much data has been forgotten on some old computers, or some CDs, or websites that have gone dark.

Right now, most corporations are organized like monarchies or oligarchies where the guys on the top make the rules, and the rest just execute them. This would democratize corporate ownership. We spend at least half of our time awake at work. We should have a voice on how the companies we work for should operate.

I'm a software developer, and in the big companies I worked for until today, there is a big disconnect between the decisions taken up high and us, the workers. I've seen so much talent be wasted because upper management only cares about short term profit. Or inhumane decisions like laying off an entire site a week before Christmas.

Remember how The Creator got backlash for using footage of the Beirut explosion?

I don't think they care that much. Windows revenue is ~7% , and most of it is probably Windows Server and enterprise/government deals. Source.

Unless SteamOS becomes competitive in the workplace and professional world, it's just a drop in the ocean, too small to matter.

Especially dangerous if it's a high voltage wire. Even standing close you can become the least resistant path to earth.

This looks like a false flag to me. Right out of Hitler's playbook... Oh, there are a lot of Germans in Sudetenland, I'll just take it.

The biggest change is that in the past, what the president thought and said was private, the messages transmitted to the public were carefully controlled, and there were several filters they had to pass through to get to the ordinary people.

Today, through social media, we have unfiltered access to the president's thoughts. And we're learning why this is a bad idea.
