dead on arrival, nobody is looking for a new browser

chrome proved that people give no shit about browsers

the UI/UX haven't changed since day 1, still minimalist AF

firefox usage dropped massively, as they kept iterating on their UI/UX, forgetting the reason why people needed a browser in the fist place, instead they kept raising the salary of their CEO, as if he/she/it was the reason why people wanted to use firefox :')

the focus is on the websites

people literally only want an address bar and sync-able bookmarks/history with their phone, that's exactly what chrome/safari provide

firefox can't even provide this, and they keep push their AD/sponsored articles about how sweet firefox is, nobody cares

every other browsers from shady companies like this one are just cash grab (including firefox)

the only logical evolution of browsers is literally ChromeOS, you boot to browse people's places (websites)
More like the area Party got co-opted by the same forces that would later give us birthers and Trump. But the Tea Party itself was actually started as more of a mainstream and sensible movement which gave us politicians like Justin Amash. Who, like this cartoon, suddenly found themselves out of alignment with their party. Both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party have moved away from center: a trend since the creation of CSPAN, I would argue.

If it's any consolation, Microsoft support for their business / enterprise / cloud services are equally as useless.

I've had Azure support point the finger at the sole 3rd party vendor for one of their services only to have it pointed back at them. This didn't get solved until I put everyone and their managers in the same email.
Again, I compared research on fusion against the prospect of research to make manufacturing solar cheap decades earlier than the Chinese government finally commissioned that work, leading to the present miracle. The consequence could have been solar built out decades earlier, millions of tons more coal left in the ground, and climate catastrophe pushed back.

Back when that spending might have made a difference, there was no work on superconduction for fusion, because high-temperature superconductors were not a gleam in anybody's eye.

That said, it is possible that training up and employing plasma fluid dynamics physicists could yet have unforeseeably consequential results that might yet (as it were) eclipse the effects of cheap solar PV.

I've dealt with their support team literal hundreds of times. That sounds about right for them. Could it have been possible that you purchased the game on another email, and used the PayPal email to simply pay for the game? Usually they fail to confirm the trans. ID if it's PayPal, but other than that they should be accurate on the original email, so if they say it's wrong, it's probably wrong. Did you get any emails from Mojang to that email in the past, about password resets, unauthorized migration etc?
> every 2 hours there is a train that stops at Wittenberge (population 8k) and Ludwiglust (population 12k)

That's a Milchmädchenrechnung if I've ever seen one. When a long-distance train coming from Berlin stops in Ludwigslust, there is nearly always a guaranteed connection to a local train continuing towards Schwerin and Wismar (combined population 137k). I'm regularly using this route to visit my parents in Mecklenburg, and it's never just me who's changing trains in Ludwigslust. There's always at least two dozen people. On the weekends, sometimes a lot more.

In a similar vein, Wittenberge may not have all that much people living directly there, but it is an important train hub for northern Sachsen-Anhalt and Brandenburg with several RE lines all meeting there.

very much so. i used to cook a couple times a week. big expensive protein. fancy sauces, a bottle of wine, and a nice salad.

strangely, my gall bladder needed to be removed.

while I was waiting for the surgery - it was brown rice and vegetables and maybe a little chicken. now its just brown rice (takes 30 minutes on an induction plate, edible for 48 hours), kimchi, and a little bit of this and that (tinned fish, fried egg, chicken)

I haven't gotten bored of it after 2 years. takes me about 30 minutes a week for cooking and cleaning up. i'm much more fit and I just never have to worry about food anymore.

in the US we're in some kind of highly inconvenient, expensive, and unhealthy minimum. fortunately it wont take much to bump us out into someplace more sane.
You're supposed to fix the frame to the stand, why are you just attaching the wheel?

Wheel "grabbers" (usually just called 'fietsenrek') are pretty common in the Netherlands, especially the 2 level ones, because they allow the greatest number of bikes in a small area. This does have some downsides obviously, but in the Netherlands 'largest number of bikes' tends to outweigh other concerns.
The biggest mining pools have known identities[1]. If some unknown group started mining and the hashrate jumped 50%, it would draw lots of attention. There's no way it could be done secretly. A more likely attack would be a government bribing or coercing a few of the biggest mining pools to manipulate their blocks.

Having worked at one of those, I can give you some insight.

... They think exactly the opposite. Google even has an estimate of how many lives their services save per year on average.

Privacy concerns become extremely secondary when you're stranded in the woods and all rescuers have on your location is the last time your GPS-equipped smartphone pinged. Googlers think of themselves as working on systems like that.
I thought government ID would be a silver bullet.

Google Meet is WebRTC in production. As is Discord video and audio, Facebook messenger video, and Whatsapp calls. There are several WebRTC-as-a-service platforms that are relatively large and are used by diverse applications (meetings, telehealth, teaching/tutoring, events). I co-founded and work at one of them (Daily.co YC W16).

WebRTC is almost the only choice for low-latency video and audio inside a web browser. The open source libwebrtc [1] implementation that's in Chromium and Safari is now mature enough to be used in other native applications if you have a medium-sized engineering team and are comfortable with C++. (Again, WebRTC-as-a-service platforms often provide native libraries that wrap libwebrtc to give you easier to use full stack iOS, Android, (etc) SDKs.)

The three big challenges with WebRTC are that low-latency media is its own domain and the learning curve is steep, that scaling sessions to more than two or three people requires a lot of server-side packet routing code (you can't do pure peer-to-peer with lots of participants), and that there aren't yet the mature "off the shelf" cloud building blocks that exist for HTTP-ish workloads.

WebRTC data channels are the non-video/audio part of the WebRTC spec. My hot take: data channels are rarely the right solution to any problem description that doesn't start with, "well, I already have a WebRTC transport open ..."

You see, before you overwrite the actual file with the new content, you should wrote the new content in a separate temporary file first. That way, when your app detect corrupted files on startup due to power loss, you can program your app to look for the temporary files and write them to the main files if they pass your data validation.

... and before long, you'll reinvent database servers but shittier.
I don't understand requiring a transaction ID to migrate. Is that really a necessity?

I almost certainly don't have the transaction ID (I haven't yet tried to migrate), but I also certainly do not expect that they can require that I supply for a successful migration.

Requiring this is akin to stealing something I bought. Are people okay with Microsoft stealing from them? I'm certainly not.

This sounds like fruitful ground for a class action suit, if true.
Isn't this exactly why first/buisness class is made for? What is your experience with buisness class in TGV? In ICE trains, it makes a difference (i.e. more silence).
Up until 1.18.30, you could play Bedrock edition on Linux using mcpelauncher. Sadly, with 1.18.30 MS switched MCPE over to their RenderDragon engine, and the mcpelauncher community has yet to find a stable workaround.
the main application where one will see real 10Gbps speeds is if the NAS also has a fast NVME SSD used for smaller file size needs at high speeds...

for instance I have a setup which is meant for working with uncompressed raw yuv420 or yuv422p 1080p and 4K video, there's a 512GB NVME SSD and a 1TB SSD set up as individual JBOD and exposed to the network for video editing scratch file storage, and it will definitely saturate 10GbE.

this is actually needlessly complicated, if/when I build a more powerful desktop pc again I'm just going to put the same work file space storage on a 2TB NVME SSD directly stuck into the motherboard.
> For example 14TB drives sell for $240

Where? Also, is it worthwhile to buy hard drives explicitly for NAS when you're using ZFS? For example, Seagate has the IronWolf product line explicitly for NAS and cost more.
That's the thing, what business are they losing exactly? I don't think it even registers in their annual accounting.
Actually a lot of Moscow tech workers came back after fleeing initialy to Yerevan, Tbilisi, Baku and Istanbul.

Most bought Bloomberg propaganda and were expecting a crash. It never came. On the other hand Moscow feels great, restaurants are packed and most of people I know are back to their consumerist habits (sans some Western clothing brands).

I run everything in a Docker container because I have 50+ services running, and I don't want to spend any time on their inner workings. I truly couldn't care less. I only manage the access layers (configuration parameters, volumes, ports and reverse proxy). Using Docker every application is the same from a management perspective.

I never said a co-op would not care about safety. I am saying that they lack the resources to implement low-cost safety solutions.

None of the co-ops listed have industry standard safety systems for telematics (unplanned stops, detour detection, or unsafe driving), face recognition, or audio recording.

Feel free to address the original point of how co-ops have the same incentives as Big Tech for letting anyone on the platform.

> Final thoughts: The web always wins. It defeated Flash. It killed Silverlight. It destroyed native apps on desktop. The browser is the rich client platform. The OS is merely a browser-launcher and hardware-communicator.

I really hope this is not the case.

The web is fine, but nothing beats native implementations. Web apps are slow and bloated in comparison to a true native app. And I for one cannot believe that we have accepted that simple things like note taking or chat apps need several hundreds of megabytes of RAM to run. Madness.

In this particular case, it works because there are other long-distance services on the same line that do the extra stops. The EuroCity towards Prague stops in Büchen, Ludwigslust and Wittenberge, which (funnily enough) maps precisely onto the three states that the train passes through.

Edit: It turns out this EuroCity (line 27) is the only long-distance line that stops between Hamburg and Berlin. Lines 18, 28 and 29 go non-stop, as per https://assets.static-bahn.de/dam/jcr:b4fca34a-4b95-4d82-98d...

I will respond anyway I guess.

All those things you mentioned are great, sure. But to my mind, something can be useful, fun, loved, enjoyed while actively making your life worse. The obvious example being addictive drugs.

My smartphone, for example, has definitely made a lot if things more convenient. It use it all the time, for all sorts of useful things. Marvelously useful piece of technology, the smartphone. Has it improved my life? I'm honestly not sure, but my gut reaction is no, because it's ruined my already limited ability to focus(I have ADHD). It actually makes me far more productive having my phone turned off, despite how useful I seem to think it is.

My point is that something can be useful and do all sorts of things for you, but that can still be true while it's actively harmful to you. And you might not even be conscious of this about yourself, let alone most of the global population.
It's already happening, but hardcoding also causes other issues. You have to be really big before you can depend on a hardcoded DNS server.
Sandboxing is important for the desktop security. The choices are between Flatpak and Snap for desktop Linux.

Snap requires lock-in to Canonical's proprietary cloud app store, whereas Flatpak you can link to multiple app stores simultaneously. It's obvious which standard is best for consumers.

2) "Inclusive language" or avoiding potentially insulting language is added as a feature by higher ups

3) The more entries in the "Inclusive language" feature the better the outcome looks to management or it helps meet some arbitrary employee metric (velocity or x issues resolved or similar)

4) More and more entries get added because it is easy to do
It's best to let hot foods cool a little bit before moving them to the refrigerator. They can be so hot that they'll warm up surrounding items, or in the freezer, you might end up actually thawing anything adjacent.
The biggest problem with sending media over data channels is that there's no good way to do bandwidth estimation. Data channels weren't designed to be used for media, and the current WebRTC spec (and javascript implementation) doesn't expose enough control of either the codec or the network stack to implement real bandwidth estimation and bandwidth control. This is presumably the main reason that Zoom's in-browser implementation is so limited in functionality.
