Plain old denialism.

Good default is to ask users about their preferences explicitly and not to hide that kind of settings anywhere.

The goal is to fully control your environment and not to expecting some unexpected updates.

User is the one who must choose update policy. If user is choosing to not update then it's their own problem and no manufacturer has the right to deside otherwise.

Thank you, without that link I was unable to understand what to do and was simply clicking on canvas.

I remember a sci-fi novel from the 60s or 70s, where a forgotten punch card was the only artifact left over from aliens long gone.

I think that something similar awaits modern science fiction in 50 years.

Wow. They even don't want to pretend that videos are for viewing.

Four bricks and a jack I guess.

I would say it more like site that has some sort of glare of anonymity. That sort of anonymity ables person to be a bit of antisocial (e.g. not everyone would be happy to connect their real life identity to reddit account) but still it is social network.

There are contracts for years and years ahead so I doubt current price changes will impact Apple or any other major client.

It is funny to read this because of so many redditors will comment on every facebook related post how good their life become after ditching that social network. And they are immediately forgetting about other social network (reddit) they currently use.

Yes, it's just sad that some people start judging beforehand, implying malicious behavior rather than misunderstanding.

And other people want to be offended, even when there is no insult, just different cultural norms.

Such nonsense as AI moderation will force everyone to be good but good only in terms of some very narrow cultural norms with no respect to other cultures.

And since practices like these only growing it will become norm in near future.
