Yeah every split I've seen puts the arrow keys where the 4 modifier keys go on a typical keyboard. Annoys the heck out of me.

The UHK can be mapped to a proper layout easily (it has proper widths for modifier keys on the right, so you just need to move the Fn somewhere else and you can get a standard set), but it's not cheap.
We had similar discussions in Germany on taxes on any CO2 emissions. There were proposals of redistributing some of the earnings to people with very low emissions, a bit similar to negative income tax rates in concept. Sadly never really went anywhere.
If you were working with a PT they want you sitting so far upright with your shoulders pulled so far back you might not be able to even reach the keyboard.

We're all so used to the slouch it's hard to grasp.

"free market" isn't a binary thing. There's a spectrum between free market and regulation. Many spectrums.
From Google's viewpoint, it's in the EULA and you voluntarily agreed to it.

This is how they keep Gmail free.

Presumably, you've known that Google uses all the data it keeps about you for marketing purposes? Heck, even my grandmother knows this.

If you want to (supposedly) bypass this surveillance, look at purchasing a local GSuite for your use. Or look for something non-Google entirely.

I imagine it's a sample size thing, but if this board is any indication of the market expect to make less than $20 a hour if you hold non majority opinions and want to publicly voice them. If represenative, it may be that the blue collar world is a lot more tolerant of dissenting opinions in a strange reversal of fortune from a few decades ago where it seemed the other way around.

"Symbian Toys" developer, Marco Bellino[0] (Accredited Symbian Developer) open sources of his apps for Series S60/Symbian OS and set of utility software for PC (MS Windows).[1]

One of the most advanced app by "Symbian Toys" is RomPatcher+[2] app - an improved and fixed version of the RomPatcher[3] software developed by ZoRn.

For curious reason RomPatcher+ repo[4] still is empty.

"Symbian Toys" SISXplorer (PC utility) allows you to Inspect and Extract all the files contained inside the 3rd Edition (Symbian 9.x) installation packages.[5,6]

Simply put, no. Existing FB users generally do not care enough about privacy violations, dark patterns, algorithmic manipulation, centralization, or censorship to switch from the platform. What is to be seen is how FB will deal with changing demographics or generational differences. FB is not as popular among gen Z/young millennials. As they age and gain more market share, will they move to FB just as their parents did or will their current social media preferences (Instagram, TikTok) follow them? This remains to be seen.
congrats y'all!
A well-made UX in GTK or QT can look fairly native on Mac with little-to-no effort, and would let you also distribute it to Windows/Linux/Chromebook (the other 93% of the PC market, for those of you who aren't paying attention)

I love Mac apps, I like their silly use of euphemism and laissez-faire design language, but I will outright not integrate it into my lifestyle if I can't run it on my 5 other devices too. Getting work done comes first, and I'm sure as hell not going to boot up my QEMU container just to add a bullet point for my shopping list.
But what about wireless charging?
>"I’m really surprised Google hasn’t done more"

I have used Google Ads, and think the ads themselves are quite secure; I am less certain about the advertiser websites (though it seems Google does some sort of link-testing/screening). What are you suggesting Google has failed to do?

I think the problems with ad security are on smaller platforms/networks which are willing to host less-secure ads, and I'm not sure what Google could do about them.
Who exactly was forced to invest money into FB stock?

Really nice design; do you have a “rename field” action for editing all those metadatas across matching tags at once?
I once tried not running an ad blocker or noscript on a work computer. That lasted for a couple months until the day I got a redirected to a porn site from an innocuous search result. There are too many ways to weaponize a site to let your guard down. If the site operator can't or won't vet all of the code they send you then you should feel no obligation to execute it.
Pretty sure any magnet strong enough to attract one of these from the distances required would also induce a voltage on any sufficiently long wire that’s moving through the flux lines. i.e. might cause problems for your car, for airplanes, etc.
I agree it should be more repairable. However please don't spread ignorance about how that would have just ended up in a landfill because it wouldn't have.
So if an employee has an active Twitter account where they regularly post overtly racist content, these are companies that will promise to keep them employed, regardless of, for example, complaints from other employees who are people of color?

Sounds like a train wreck waiting to happen. Also, who wants to work for a company that is essentially reaching out to hire more racists?
That's a good point. Anyone who suspects that the government pressured Apple to add on-device file scanning (under the guise of "think of the children") should also conclude that making TPMs a requirement is intended to lay the groundwork for a future legislative change (presumably under the guise of "cyber-security").
In before a googler comments we gave a lot of thought about this, and we are sure this wont be misused for Ads and tracking.
MS Teams macOS recent update seems to disable the quick code snippet functio
I'm pretty sure yesterday I can use ``` (triple backtick) to indicate a code snippet, but today the function is disabled. I checked the other code snippet functionality (that you can access from Format->Code snippet) and its interface is changed so I figured this must be an implicit corporate update that went off the radar.

My question is: I'm getting enough of this, and TBH I don't give it a fuck about corporate IT policy if it constantly gets in my way. Is there anyway to hack it to just completely prevent ANY update on Microsoft products on MacOS?
The extra cost would be building the "dumb mode".

Smart TVs took over in part because they were cheaper than regular TVs because they could be subsidized by ads, placement deals for apps, etc.

Also most normal consumers don't care all that much about the negatives, to them it means they need to figure out one less device, one less remote, etc. to watch Netflix.

You can still buy TVs without these things from the vendors' business divisions but you'll be paying more for less features which means it will never catch on with the retail market.

Also, in the end, you can just use it without connecting it to the network. I bought a new LG CX soon after a zero-click exploit was discovered affecting them. I just left it offline and used my other devices as sources until that was patched.
You're muddying the issue here on purpose. Mortgages are irrelevant to the analogy. The logistics network is irrelevant. If you buy a TV, there is a big logistics network in making and building them too -- so what?

> unless you can tell me how to install it right now on my device?

This is the dictionary definition of begging the question. You can't install apps on the iPhone because you can't install apps on the iPhone -- that's not an argument.

Software distribution and installation, historically, not required an "app store". That's a relatively new invention.

I don't think it's harsh, as those points to me aren't valid. I'd much rather have the Mozilla foundation focus on security, privacy, ubiquity than UX and less used features like history searching.

That said, I can't do any combination of Netflix + Any other application leveraging graphic card drivers. Completely locks up the computer milliseconds after application loads,need to hard restart. Event viewer for system and FF is no help. Submitted bug tickets, no updates. Oh well, it's fast and secure when I'm not on netflix.
Now that I have kids I rarely find the time to play Civ. But my favourite pre-pandemic guilty pleasure when faced with a long flight was to start up Civ 6 immediately after takeoff and play until landing. An eight hour flight would feel like two hours.

Only downside, related to the slowness, is that it's an utter CPU hog, so my Macbook's fans would be straining within ten minutes. Not so comfortable to have on your lap.
I think its just fighting fire with fire, The big automakers were pushing to get all kinds of subsidies from the U.S. government for unionized labor....which excludes Tesla.... this just seems like Musk fighting fire with fire.
Isn't Tesla's "angle" that they sell clean-air ev credits to ICE vendors, which are being devalued by the delay?
Cigarettes is a great example where there are highly taxed in some countries, so the US has a population of foreign experiments that the US can study to see the effects on the poor.

In New Zealand a pack of 20 costs about NZD36. Minimum wage is NZD20 per hour here.

Or adjusting to match median per capita incomes, that is about USD40 for a pack.

Also see this list of world cigarette prices: https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_price_rankings...

Edit: Disclaimer: when you are old enough to have close friends with smoking related cancers and emphysema etcetera, using dollars to represent the future cost to yourself seems more reasonable. It also breaks the social dynamic of handing cigarettes around and getting others addicted - when a single cigarette is expensive to you, you don’t just offer them to others.
This (this specific news as well as crypto in general) still feels like externalizing a fairly important cost - the energy usage required to keep this world-wide distributed ledger going.

Change my mind?
Remember when HN collectively lost their minds and questioned journalists integrity for suggesting that the Chinese government could have put a backdoor chip gasp the size of a grain of rice on Supermicro motherboards?

This is nice but it doesn't give you a reasoning system for making assertions about components. I'd rather work backwards from that point to a web language but playing around with things dynamically is the most natural and explored model.

Mac desktop market is 1/10 of that of Windows. There are however multiple "buts". Windows users are more reluctant to pay for software. When they do, they want to pay less. They tend to have less regard for aestheics and well-crafted UI/UX, but those that do will be sold instantly on the app that have 'em.

Regrettably, the percentage of Windows users that do value build and design quality over the abundance of features and low pricing is, maybe, 10-20%. On the plus side, however, this acts as a natural filter and you end up with the userbase that really groks what you make and how you make it. This alone is a huge plus. "Those who like it, like it a lot."

Long story short, if you can take your well-made Mac app and port it to Windows, retaining the polish - do it. It's totally worth it, in all aspect of it. Just make sure it looks and feels native, and it's not an Electron ;)

Wild times?

That's what I call this: reading an advocation FOR ads. Ads being great and wonderful instead of -- at best -- a necessary evil.
It's often easier to start out with focusing on making a really good product for a single platform first, and then branching out to other platforms. That even counts for things built with Electron, Qt, etc since even if 90% of the app is cross platform there's still a sizable surface between the app and each supported platform that needs to be tested and polished.
This is only adjacent to what you've asked for, but I wrote an RSS aggregator with an HN-like UI awhile back.

I second (or third now) that travel on typical mechanical switches is anecdotally sub-optimal for my RSI. Membrane dome switches with a lot of travel are worse, but membrane dome switches with almost no travel seem to be better.

Ironically the worse keyboard I've used for it also happened to be an "ergonomic" keyboard (from the 90s, or maybe early 2000s) with keys tilted outwards. I think partially because of the positioning, and partially because it had membrane switches with a lot of travel.
> carbon tax?

No you want an emissions trading scheme instead of a carbon tax. Only this way the government can actually enforce strict upper limits on CO2 emissions („cap“) and allow economic subjects to sell their emission rights for profit („trade“). Compared to a carbon tax „cap and trade“ makes the regulation of carbon emissions more efficient both for all market participants and the government.
Google (and others) do screen ads; I think most of the insecure ads are served by smaller, less scrupulous ad networks.
I'm not sure what you think minority ownership of a public company should entail, but surely you'd agree that it should protect them from the majority shareholder spending unlimited amounts of company cash to save themselves from personal inconvenience/embarrassment?
Let me repeat my words: "All the greatest scientists in late 1970s were talking about coming of a new Ice Age."
Different theories of global warming at that time were only theories and not that significant and are not even comparable to that heavy weight of the whale what is understood under "Global warming" today.

>You can’t use sci-fi to draw conclusions about anything except the culture in which it rises.

I can draw conclusion about culture of that age - just like I can draw conclusions of my own on this culture of modern era, which sure will also raise questions to future generations. However my conclusions about human behaviours has nothing to do with the volcanic activity, that will prove theory of Global warming wrong.

My main point here is that Sid Meyer during the creation of his game probably had no idea about those early global warming papers and "research" that you are so eager to point in that publication from earlier times - including earlier centuries, but clearly the idea about global warming was in the air in 1980s for completelly different reasons. Since I did not live in US, I can't recollect any talks about global warming in 1980s - this really exploded in my region only in 2000s(not much after it became a thing in US), when effects of global warming could be seen and when Al Gore was pioneering the usage of this question to gain political power.

When did I ever say any of these things?

I specifically said that it is possible for someone to create a game like Dwarf Fortress without being the recepient of a PhD in Math.

I never said that I knew better than the author, or that you needed to believe in yourself, or anything like that.

I believe you are assuming that I'm reacting to something, but all I am saying is that you do not need a PhD to do what has been done.
Everyone agrees that they could; the question is whether they did.
Generally I agree. I don't know why we expect companies to be angels either. Personally I'm okay with "fiduciary responsibility" and the role of government is to align incentives. Of course, morality and culture are still important (e.g., managers should still see themselves as providing good employment for their communities, etc), but without aligned incentives the former are swimming upstream.
It may not change the individual fact, but it quite clearly doesn't support the ridiculous hyperbolic generalizations about a "non-repairable" car upthread either.

Look, cars are complicated. Manufacturers write repair manuals and stock parts based on expected failures. Not every conceivable failure is going to be in those manuals. In this case there was a valve that was part of "The Battery Pack" as far as the manual was concerned, but that had a localized failure more that could have been repaired with a targetted replacement of a single part.

And it wasn't in the manual. And yeah, that's sort of an engineering failure. They should have anticipated this low-hanging-fruit kind of repair (just as they do for other very common stuff like brake calipers or shocks or whatnot). And they didn't. Shame on them.

But that's not a systemic failure. They just didn't write it up.

What are you really asking for here? That Tesla empower its local service centers to do their own engineering work on a 400V electrical system and decide for themselves how to disassemble and reassemble the battery pack in a safe way just to save a handful[1] of battery replacements? Does that sound like a good idea? Seems like we'd be right back here with entirely different (and IMHO more justified) anti-Tesla safety flame wars.

[1] So far as anyone can tell, this is in fact the only such valve that has failed on a wild Tesla. It's not like these things are dropping everywhere.
They can profit simply by holding bitcoin, which they're increasing demand for.

Bitcoin has always been the kind of thing that rewards insiders.

Companies and government officials can profit just by holding bitcoin and then incentivizing its wider use. It makes more sense to become an insider than to fight bitcoin. Arguably, that's even true for major financial institutions.
A real empathy would be advocating for adblocks and installing on all your acquaintance that would not know better.
Allow me to rephrase.

You say that such complaints are just noise to Google because they have already acted on these complaints (ie, Pixel bootloaders are unlocked). On that, I think you and I agree re: pointless complaining.

I'm asking, why not continue to complain in an effort to push vendors with locked bootloaders to unlock them? Specific vendors are irrelevant, I'm just curious if you do/don't think people should complain to them, as well.
