Not sure if you've noticed, but everyone having a say has eviscerated society and our ability to communicate with one another. We didn't evolve to be part of a global community where everyone knows everything going on and everyone has a say on every conversation going on in the world. The Internet was better when it took a little work to get access to the information you wanted.

Egalitarian cries of "Internet for everyone!" have devolved into bullshit that ruthless companies looking for more profits have co-opted. Again, it's not like it would have worked out anyway.

I’d argue that FF could possibly convince some manufacturers to preload Firefox with uBlock installed as a faster browser (if UCBrowser could, surely FF can).

I tried to search for the actual law she broke to no avail

Any pointer ?
Sure, but you chose only the last panel as your witty rebuttal. Honestly, I don't think that the first panel is that off. If you go on the internet to criticize a company, be intellectually honest and acknowledge the fact that you're doing something that's a little hypocritical. People see the contradiction and then wonder how strong the conviction and argument is when the person making the contradiction is hidden.

You're also really avoiding the fact that you're not describing an improvement, you're describing abolishment. Hacker news only has one single feature, and that's user input. The comments are submitted by users. The articles are submitted by users. If you get rid of user input, then this website is an opening and closing HTML tag. The comics describe a scenario where something is improved. What would improvement of hacker news be to you?

Let's ask this:

1. Do you think that hacker news should exist in its current form?

2. If not, what would you change?

3. Do you use it?

4. Do you think that it should exist?

5. In what ways does Hacker news differ from facebook, such that a positive answer to 4. would have a negative answer to 5?
have you used container tabs? those are effectively "different profiles" for what most people consider them. It's still shared extensions and history and bookmarks but you can login with different accounts in different tabs and it keeps that separate.
Ask HN: WebM or WebP for GIF Replacements?
There are benefits to either approach, but using an animated webp image has the benefit of using the same workflow, semantics and markup as a gif (aside from accessibility concerns).

A webm video requires more changes to templates and partials and redoing a lot of work, but is [apparently much faster](https://corydowdy.com/blog/apng-vs-webp-vs-gif).

I've read that the underlying tech for these is the same thing, so if I wanted to do a replacement gifs, which one should I choose?
P1: Would you like to buy this banana?

P2: That's an apple.

P1: No, it's a banana.

P2: Dude, that's clearly an apple.

P1: Okay, it's an apple, but by pretending it's yellow and long, we're bypassing the rules for selling apples.

P2: That's not.... that's now how any of this works
I'd prefer if Apple were forced to open iOS :)
>Since you donated money to them, you probably would like to know that the manifesto of the organizers who setup the GoFundMe and started the convoy explicitly wanted the Governor General and Senate to meet with the organizers and form a committee to replace the federal government. [1] They only recently stepped back from the manifesto a few days ago. [2]

I never donated to them for the record. I wouldn't even join some solidarity thing.

The first link doesnt load any audio for some reason. So i dunno there.

The second link being from a 'government accredited media' org basically just says this MOU was withdrawn. Never provides a sentence of the MOU of what it says. Though they say:

>The group had been accused by some of using the document to try to legitimize an attempt to seize power from the federal government.

Yes well, the group was also called white supremacists, so lets just look at the real deal.

>By having the Senateof Canadaand theGovernorGeneralof Canadasign this MOU into action, they agree to immediately cease anddesist all unconstitutional, discriminatoryand segregating actionsand human rightsviolations.It calls for animmediate instruction toall levels of the Federal, Provincial, Territorialand Municipal governments to not only stop but furthermore waive all SARS-CoV-2 (and not limited to SARS-CoV-2 subsequent variations)fines that have been issued and imposed upon its citizens, institutions, and private enterprises.Further, to immediately re-instate all employees in all branches ofall levels ofgovernments and not limited to promote the same to the private industry and institutional sectors employees with full lawful employment rights prior to wrongful and unlawful dismissals.Lastly it instructsall levels of government and private Sector that the Illegal use of a Vaccine Passportto cease anddesistimmediately

OK, I can certainly see where some people are coming from, but absolutely don't agree with the conclusion they are trying to seize power. In fact no reading or interpretation of that has them asking for power. They are asking for the GG to simply restore our rights. Which is absolutely something we have in Canada that may seem abnormal to say the USA.

No doubt why the national post doesn't actually copy and paste any of this. This is entirely what the Monarch and GG is supposed to be for. Hurts me to say because I think we should cut all ties to the British monarchy and move toward a republic. Coming back to context of my comments. The use of our monarchy being used as if to be an insurrection is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. Our monarchy is still our monarchy. If our monarch decides something, we must abide and that's not insurrection.
I agree that ASCII-art definitely is more cenetered around the original markdown spirit but I personally struggle making my ASCII-art diagrams in Vim. Looking at the mermaid, syntax it looks like I can whip up something equivalent really quick. As a developer I also don't mind that the mermaid syntax reads like pseudocode so it's probably easy for me to digest.
To play devil's advocate, and provide another (intentionally) biased framing:

Do people want to continue with restrictions that have pushed the opioid epidemic to a new high [1]. Pushed mental health in youth to 'completely unsustainable' levels [2]. Stolen normal development/socialization from children & young adults using restrictions that were not always clearly evidence based [3]. And, all this considering the current outlook of the virus is far more positive than it once was.

The Angus Reid poll phrased their question like this, for anyone interested:

Open Robotics Developing Space ROS with Blue Origin, NASA
My first question would be why such a civilization isn't just colonizing that galaxy. If the reason is that those distances are too hard to cross, then my question is why they're concerned about other civilizations developing. Of the top of my head, the best reason they would be worried about it is because it is something they would do themselves; but ever for an advanced civilization that seems like an expensive project with limited return. Or maybe they're as fearful as Larry Niven's puppeteers.

It also would be more efficient to go to that galaxy, tow its stars around, and form new black holes there. You'd move much less mass a much shorter distance. You could probably even pick a relative handful of stars and just nudge them and wait; they're already moving after all. Might as well use that momentum.
Aw, darn. I'm sorry to hear that. My eyes definitely aren't what they used to be either, and I tried to typeset the book as readably as possible (which is a big part of why the page size is larger than most other technical books).
> The term "victim blaming" is overused as a piece of manipulative rhetoric 90% of the time

Going off-topic, but yup. It's not victim blaming to point out when a victim didn't even take normal precautions. For example, if you're crossing the street, then even if the walk signal says WALK, you should still be looking to make sure there aren't any drivers running the red light. While yes, if you get hit by a car, it's the fault of the driver, you still failed to take the necessary actions for self-preservation.

Hell, there's a pedestrian crossing near me that isn't at an intersection, but has yellow flashing warning lights that turn on when you press a button. There's also a speaker that says "Cross street with caution, vehicles may not stop".
I worked for EMC through the acquisition by Dell. I spoke with a someone in Dell MFG about their test process. In short, they test as configured by the customer. We were discussing a blade server. I asked what happens if a customer buys an additional blade and that slot on the backplane doesn’t work, because it wasn’t tested? The answer: we get them a new backplane really quickly. Dell is all about removing cost from the business and that means they made the calculation that it’s cheaper to test as configured and pay for the few cases where someone upgrades and has an issue, versus test everyone’s machine comprehensively. Needless to say, this wasn’t the EMC way. So yes, it’s expensive to overnight a new part to customers, but someone has done the ROI and figured out that is cheaper than testing every system for every anticipated problem.

Please don't comment on downvotes like this; it's not useful.
Yup. Prosupport was very worth it.. People who buy Macs for work also buy Apple Care, right? Same thing. Dell sent technicians to my house twice to fix issues. My only gripe was that my Precision didn't seem to fully support the Ubuntu 18.04 it came with, but everything has been better with 20.04.
Taken from Merriam-Webster:

Which is categorically false of course because you can very well do your business before hypothermia sets in.
Don't Wait for a Housing Market Crash
everyone has their own taste I suppose. my next car will likely be a gr86 if I can get one for MSRP. it will be slower, less practical, and have a worse interior than my current DD. but I expect it will be much more fun to drive.

I've driven a couple teslas as well as porsches and amgs. the instant torque from an EV is a very cool feeling, but to me it's not enough to offset the refinement and handling feel of the current best ICEs. I found the interior and overall fit and finish of the teslas I've been in to be quite poor for the price. if you're not tearing away from every stoplight, I guess I don't see why you would get a car like that as a driving enthusiast. I think the real appeal will come when the prices drop a bit more and they become the most straightforward way to get from A to B. after all, this is the only real requirement most people have for their vehicles.
I fully agree. If the consistent messaging is meant to be "use this browser, it's private and respects you", but it's then compromised by advertising and data abuse, it seems hypocritical and damages adoption of the browser.
Firefox Android does support extensions, Firefox mobile arguable includes iOS - which does not.
There's one more thing, though. This does not meet the legal definition of firearm, and thus could be made fully automatic. I think this adds to its potential for absurd joy.

The two adults that were arrested were not prosecuted. However, it seems like the police's stance was, "a crime was committed, but we decided to not prosecute based on the context, consequences of the crime, etc.", rather than, "there was no crime committed"

You probably need to investigate s0ix and figure out why your machine isn't reaching that state.
The problem here is twofold. The first is that css still makes it really hard (AFAIK) to do multi-column text flowing (aka newspaper style). The second is of course using the tiling window manager, I expect that a web page uses the entire browser canvas area its presented with (aka its not putting in 16" margins around a 2" wide bit of text, as is the other common failure). So, I'm fine with the entire web page becoming a single line of text if I give it a 8k pixel wide/40" screen. I will resize it to something more appropriate if that is its problem.

edit: Well I would delete this comment, because it looks like its a fixed problem, I guess not doing css for the past 4 years, i'm a bit out of the loop.

http://xahlee.info/js/css_multi-column_layout.html

Although its still not 100% reasonable (if i'm understanding), there should be a way to instead of specifing the column counts rather specify roughly the column attributes and have the browser determine the column count and flow the text. You would think `column-count: auto` would do that but at least on ff, that just means `column-count: 1`
I don't think any company (above certain size) would stick to just one stack. Technologies change considerably from one team to another. I agree Google and Amazon are exceptions.
The model appears to have overfit a bit (seed 535 is blatantly Vivillion: https://twitter.com/ak92501/status/1492560750103121920 )

Tracfone paid using cash from a Walmart...but even then, it's not like you're not being observed at checkout.
True. It will depend on the person and the situation. I feel like if I got in, then that would be enough for me. I just want the money, and a several years working there could be enough to retire early. So it's more a means to an end, and I would care so much about whether I deserve it or not. Not to mention, I think a lot of my imposter syndrome was/is driven by the uncertainty of being able to find another job. If I were even mediocre at FAANG, then that opens up more possibilities afterwards just on the reputation of the company.
>I've had honking in Downtown Vancouver from a group supporting the convoy and it certainly does not resemble the usual city noise. If it was horrible for the couple hours I experienced then it must have been hell for those Ottawa citizens when it went on for days.

> Noting that "the U.S. and NATO are pouring in high-tech weaponry and training up Ukraine's armed forces, making it a much more militarily capable foe," Gill wrote Friday that "from where the Russians are sitting, the deployment of billions of dollars worth of new U.S. and U.K. military hardware on its borders is a sign of escalation, rather than defense."

I may just be ill-informed, so I'm completely willing to hear alternative views, but isn't this complete lunacy? Putin has been encroaching on the Ukraine and pushing to invade it for a while now, and has already invaded Georgia and Crimea, no? And he's been lining up the military on the border? How is the US and NATO mobilizing in response not defense? Is the claim here that Putin is genuinely afraid of the US invading Russia and simply operating in self-defense?

Edit: I'm being downvoted, which seems strange, considering there hasn't been a substantive response to why this is false.
Yea I guess it's big relative to the batons I see police in the US and Europe carrying, but not absurdly big. It was large enough that it looked like it would be awkward to use with any amount of precision.

Remember that guy who live-streamed his killing spree on Facebook a few years back? It got taken down. Hundreds of reposts of the video were automatically blocked before anyone saw them. The small percentage of reposts that DID make it to live? People modifying the video (flipping, cropping, re-encoding, etc) explicitly to get around the machine moderation. Those eventually got taken down by content moderators.

There are a lot of shitty people out there doing shitty things to get attention.

Ohio: Don’t Give Big Tech a Pass on Privacy
At least in my eyes and I suppose in the eyes of other techies and open Web idealists:

Because Mozilla became just another classic corporation that's laser-focused on extracting value for shareholders and executives and nothing else. A year or two ago an article about Mozilla made the rounds here: executives collecting fat bonuses (and some leaving afterwards?). Some mere months later they fired a lot of people.

Is that the right signal to send to a community that wants an open Web browsing experience? Squeeze any money you can and then fire staff. Those pesky people that have the audacity to want money for their work, how dare they!

As the (currently) top commenter @selfhoster11 says, cut out everything that's not Firefox or is not related to its mission.

I could probably agree to use some of their other offerings like Pocket or VPN, assuming they're done well. Mozilla needs the diversified income, like badly. They are at the mercy of Google and always have been. *THIS IS NOT OKAY* and should have been addressed like 10 years ago. If the expenses are so huge, well, again, fire everyone who's not working on Firefox or closely related to it.

Finally, Mozilla needs no "executives". Get a CEO, CTO and CFO who are passionate about the mission, get rid of everyone else at the top. It's a semi-charity organization, the hell does it need a board of directors for?
> Those who use it are active and committed to it.

Are they though? Are they so very committed they'll take all the crap Mozilla throws at them? Because Mozilla sure is trying their very best to get rid of Firefox users.
Depends on the filesystem access. I didn't think Amazon buckets generally allowed that kind of thing.

I believe there is a dance between these various quantities. Overall, my claim is that large med school debt does play a role in high doctor salaries. I don’t claim it is the only factor but just that it is a factor. I further claim that if med school was free them doctor salaries wouldn’t have to be quite as high as they are. That is, the same number of people would be aspire to be doctors with med school being free but doctor’s salaries being x% lower.

about:profiles looks like a debugging page, not something you use for launching a profile. And I'm not referring to its aspect, but usability. It's not made to be used daily.

I'll have to see if it can be "designed" with userChrome.css or something and I'll give it a try.
I don't see the same thing as you. Everyone knows that NATO will deny Ukraine's application if they make one because it requires all 30 countries to accept it. Biden has slow rolled the process, publicly supporting their potential "application" but helping prevent them from doing so. France, Germany, and others are very hard no's as far as I remember. They're afraid to poke Russia and dislike Ukraine in general.

Whatever Putin's ultimate goals, I think NATO has already accepted they are fait accompli, but will still pump out some empty rhetoric to quell their conscience.

Any sanctions down the road will be a joke, Europe is too reliant on Russian gas to do more than sabre rattling.
