Why would I pay >$30 for a subpar watching experience where there’s annoying people all around, I can’t stretch my legs, I can’t bring in my own food, and I’m shoved an industry ad that blames me for seeking a better market option (the seven seas stores tend to have the same movies for less than 1/30th of the price)?

Hopefully this teaches people there are platforms to upload video other than Yotube.

Do they get to stay in the tautology club?

I think they mean the original.

My understanding is that Matrix is worse than XMPP in basically every way.

Signal is unfortunately as vulnerable to this as Telegram is, as it is a fully centralized service so once the CEO is grabbed is Game Over. Something like jabber / XMPP would be better.

So wait, Apple effectively mandates that users of their store lie to their users? Wonder if that’s something that can be tackled legally.

I mean, you can even suicide on water (inb4 dihydrogen monoxide memes). This is just normal biology of a normal thing in the world.

Heck, forget water: you can even suicide on the ground below your feet. It’s just usually lots more work.

I’ll make my thesis about the methodology issues in that one!

So now Mozilla can stop receiving their hush money, right?

if it’s a superior system, then it’ll become the new standard

Not even remotely close to how it works. Remember: we had pulseaudio as the “new standard” for a decent while.

If I remember my college classes right, this basically means “we invented data to fit the curve we want”, right?

Since when has any antivirus ever had the intent of actually protecting against viruses? The entire antivirus market is a scam.

To be fair: not by our own account.

, and the laptop doesn’t have an Ethernet port so off you go to buy a usb-eth adaptor.

What, no Android USB tether? It’s been native since Debian 6 IIRC.

Damn, I had my hopes on this one. Two misses in one month is a pretty bad record.

Yes but IMO the merge conflict PPV would work and be awesome, and the straight-up bribery already works.

How did you even get the picture of the W fan? W doesn’t even provide screen capture, nor global hotkeys to make PrintScreen work.

No need to invoke copyright. They’ll just do it to own the libs.

It’s the kind that drives Conservation Efforts and Media Attention. So yeah, I guess they tend to be colorful.
