All devices should have circuitry to limit current to an acceptable charge rate, and be fused to catch surges.

A common problem during summer months.

> It’s not clear that Musk was involved in the account’s suspension, but Rocketto and Nellis aren’t all that crazy to think that the X CEO might be behind it.

Great article and explains very well the reason that AI should be renamed PSI... Poorly Simulated Intelligence.

There's a reason for everything.

If two executives talk across a table during lunch, is it required to record it? What if they sit across the table from each other and send text messages over Signal instead of talking... is that somehow different where it would be required to record the conversation for all to see?

Where does personal privacy start and end?

Greed is not a requirement of Capitalism though.

I think that's pretty normal for companies to spend money in an attempt to protect themselves from government overreach. I have never used TikTok and probably never will, but I take exception with the attempt to ban them, because the whole thing doesn't pass the smell test.

>Why are us officials trying to ban TikTok? US officials warn TikTok's management is beholden to the Chinese government and fear Beijing could use the social media app to influence the 2024 US elections, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines told a House of Representatives intelligence committee hearing in March.

I guess we need to ban all search engines and social media too.

SanDisk is still SanDisk and I don't consider them to be Western Digital. Their products have always been dodgy and I still have heartburn over some of their thumb drives where it was impossible to remove the shovel-ware installed on them. It will continue to be nothing other than Samsung products for me in the foreseeable future.
