Perhaps "toxicity" has always been found on computer networks, consider 1990's Usenet. What is different now is that Twitter, Facebook, etc. are "monetising" web usage, any sort of usage (e.g., purely recreational, non-commercial usage), by selling web users out to advertisers, not to mention political campaigns. Imagine if all Usenet usage had been carefully surveilled with all possible deomgraphic and behavioural data collected whereupon the people doing this surveillance proclaimed "we are a startup" and tried to "services" to advertisers or political organisations.

"Centralisation" makes surveillance much easier, hence "decentralisation" is percieved as a panacea. It also helps to curb the viral spread of low quality information. As long something makes surveillance and data collection more difficult, it is helpful. Because when the surveillance is no longer easy, the profit motive should decrease. The data collection frenzy should start to fade. We can close this ugly chapter in business and get back to real work.

Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc. want centralisation. They need sustained, heavy web traffic, lest they could not make money. They still do not have a legitimate, viable "business plan" outside of surveillance, data collection and perpetuating an online ad circus.

The smart way to deal with all of this is to pass laws regulating the collection and usage of data on web users. Unfortunately leadership today is at crisis levels, corruption is on the rise, so this may not come anytime soon. In absence of legal protections, web users must fend for themselves.

The thing about wine is, if you don’t physiologically have tons of fungiform papillae on your tongue (ie super taster) you’ll never appreciate the nuances in wine. If you’re a non-taster wine is pretty much wasted on you for sure and you should seek out enjoying food with regard to texture rather than flavor. So it very well may be that it’s not even a matter of preference, but a matter of nature.

It doesn’t get into the details of what “processing” means, but I suspect the processing of the video data itself adds significantly to the overhead. Cameras may (probably) don’t have hardware video encoders for the best codecs, so the processing on the CPU would use quite a bit of power. And on the servers, depending on what you’re doing, there’s a lot of mixing and reprocessing that may need to be done on the streams. My own laptop isn’t that old, and the fan spins up often enough on calls that you know the CPU is chugging more than usual.

The w3c spec does specify the clearkey DRM plugin as mandatory to implement, but as the name says, the encryption keys are not hidden in any fashion from users, so most deployments use one of the proprietary plugins.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_shooting_of_Dallas_police...

Except it happened at a BLM protest. And in this day and age, evidently having someone commit some violent act at an event is enough to blame scores (and more) of other people at that event, and organizations associated with it. And then de-platform them, and de-monetize them, .... and generally de-humanize them. (Like the protest at the Capitol)

Also, he was a member of the New Black Panther Party:

> NBPP head Quanell X said after the shooting that Johnson had been a member of the NBPP's Houston chapter for about six months, several years before.

> Following the shooting, a national NBPP leader distanced the group from Johnson, saying that he "was not a member of" the party.

But of course, any organization with ties to him would want to cut those ties and disavow him, making themselves look clean. Do you think BLM or other organizations would want ties to such people exposed?

Yes, that pesky need for evidence in order to get me start making leaps of faith to accept the premises required.

> Consider yourself a victim of the media. Greenwald therefore was right.

Why? Honestly, why should I?

Prove the premise, don't ask me to blindly accept it like an elderly patient being euthanized with a pillow. No "shh, shh, shh, don't struggle, just accept it". No "it's all for the best, don't think about it."

If you want me to accept evidence, demonstrate it. For example - the whole DKIM thing proves very little beyond a snippet of an email was sent and received by two entities. It doesn't prove it came from the laptop received by the technician, it doesn't prove that the email held up as evidence was read by Hunter Biden, or that it pertained to anything more than a social setting, or, well, that it has the context that Greenwald so desperately wants it to have. There are fewer assumed entities in the scenario where a hacker has access to Hunter Biden's account and sends the email knowing they will be able to pick it up later. I'm not inclined to believe either scenario off the bat - but one scenario is certainly more plausible than the other.

Greenwald desperately yearns for everyone to believe that both sides are as bad as each other. He wants the Biden family painted in the same light as the Trump family demonstrate day after day. Why? I don't know. But I don't buy into this premise without evidence.
These drivers are baked, even if there are specs for them.

The thing is, that these SoCs have no PCIe or other enumerable bus. You (=your kernel) must know what hardware it is running on and which drivers to load without being able to ask the hardware, what is really present. One wrong POKE and the entire system can hang.

And that is on top of the problem, how to boot in the first place. There is not such thing as UEFI on these SoCs. Every single one is a special snowflake with its own special way to boot.

Hence, kernels built for specific systems, even if it is just Device Tree.

"When you can find British communities that still thrive away from the major cities it is magical"

Where's that, do you think?
The first (strong opinions) seems to relate to judgements. The second to values (how we arrive at judgements).

There's a fair argument that values might need to be less rigorously arrived at but more tightly helf. Many values are beyond proof and more closely resemble axioms or premises. Even here some inclination to revise assessments might be warranted. E.g., "kill, if necessary to save your or another's life from one killing unjustly". Moral absolutes are hard to find.

Interesting thought though.

Copyrighted content is the main offender here, but there are other categories, especially "anti-circumvention" tools illegal under other provisions of the DMCA.

In this case there is clear evidence that tampering of images and video of the event has taken place. If you look at the video and many of the still images from Getty of Jan. 6th you can clearly see content-aware crowd filling alteration. This evidence does not in any way necessarily imply the existence of a grand conspiracy, nor am I making any claim supporting anything of that nature.

In New Zealand no one is more conservative than the progressive left. They demand the preservation of architecture at all costs.

They demand more deference be given to traditional tribespeople over and above the progression of cities and housing the homeless. No one stands in the way of housing more than the left in this country.

Fair enough, although that is not what Great Suspender did. Great Suspender also causes the page to be reloaded on resumption, just like an early version of tab discarding.

Tab discarding does have the slight advantage that it remembers what you typed in on the page and where you were scrolled (but nonetheless still causes a reload).

What you are asking for regarding slowing the performance of background JS is something browsers already do: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15871942/how-do-browsers...

Making that behaviour more aggressive seems like it is liable to cause significant problems to the user experience with minimal benefits. E.g. background media playback would likely be broken, notifications, etc. Whereas you could simply use bookmarks instead of open tabs to get the same effect (EDIT: actually tab discarding would already be better than that method as you note).

How I see it. Let's say, russia dared to enter a real multi-battle direct war with usa, to take alaska, and is winning a bit more each day. When would usa say "we give up, please take the alaska, we will not use our nukes?".
- Immediately after the start while there are no casualties?
- after 1k casualties on both sides?
- after going to total war mode, when each side bombs industry complex'es and later cities on the other side?

Backing down would say "nukes are not deterant anymore. Same thing can be done to us again."

btw. Nukes can be used, not only on cities, but also on fleets and divisionsand camps.

So the only way nukes would be not used if victory would be very instantaneous and total, which does not seem probable.

I'd argue that the japanese anime space is extremely crowded and there's a lot of bad quality stuff and recycling. Upon seeing yet another shounen harem, I'd often joke that episode 7 would surely be a beach episode... and sure enough, it almost always was!
> Title is very missleading, your web browser works and google does not block you, it's all about DRM.

Google, Microsoft, and Apple effectively control access to DRM. They are acting as a cartel to prevent competitors. So, yeah perhaps it would be best to add Microsoft and Apple to the list of offenders, along with the MPA, and heck even Congress (which criminalized breaking DRM even for otherwise legal purposes). But I'd hardly call the title very misleading.

Regarding your second point, it's understandable that he focused on the functionality before the licensing, because Widevine would probably have been even less supportive if he had a working product. Honestly I don't understand your complaint; someone had to make a browser and get screwed over, otherwise the defenders of Google et. al would argue that Widevine could be licensed by competing browsers.

And anyways, these minute arguments completely ignore the overarching point that DRM subverts the premise of the web and prevents disruption and competitive.

Good points.

Being able to download/cache content reliably would be welcome, on all browsers. However, I haven't seen a good example of using PWAs' storage APIs to cache video content, Safari or otherwise.

Lack of push notifications in iOS Safari is a giant shortcoming. It's especially baffling since it exists for Safari on macOS. That being said, I can't say that Netflix's push notifications (in the app) are particularly useful (to me). They always spam me with newly released yet irrelevant in-house produced titles.

Looking at the Impact Factor of a Journal can help but it's not perfect. For example Nature and Science, generally considered the most prestigious journals in the world, have impact factors around 1000 and smaller but still quality niche Physics journals might be in the low hundreds.
