I've noticed that the search is especially bad on the history tab, where even searching the exact title of a video I've seen before doesn't always display it. I've found that the best search for old or niche videos is to ask Gemini with a description of the video (I found it gives better results than GPT 5.1) but it's really unfortunate that the native search isn't more useful.

This extension has an auto-save option to back up pages you visit to the Wayback Machine automatically, which I think is pretty handy for preserving content.

I get this due to a browser extension I have (in my case it is the extension FreeTree, but chances are you aren't using that). Maybe try disabling all extensions and try the captcha again?

> someone actually had £1000 taken. They actually only had £250 worth of points in their account – however, because the Nectar points balance doesn’t refresh immediately, the fraudsters hit their account 4 times in quick succession. Leaving them with a debit of £750 in their Nectar account balance.

It's astonishing that of all the software engineers involved in programming and reviewing this system, not one of them thought to lock the DB records to prevent this (or worse, someone ordered them not to for some reason). It's so simple to do and should be top consideration when dealing with financial transactions.

Sure, he makes Synthwave under the name Ampholyte https://music.youtube.com/channel/UCFKoFR8aNtzcK1WKfnCDyig https://ampholyte.bandcamp.com/

Do you have average figures for how much each platform pays per stream? My colleague has his music on both and has said YouTube pays 2x as much per stream compared to Spotify.

My colleague has his music on both Spotify and YouTube Music, and he has said in the past that one YouTube listen is worth 2x as much as one Spotify listen.

How come you think YouTube Premium would be the same cost as Spotify or Netflix? Spotify in particular only has to store and stream audio, and Netflix has far far less video and audio to store than YouTube - they also both only allow somewhat official content on their platforms (you have to register as an artist to upload to Spotify, and you have to be a registered studio to get onto Netflix). YouTube allows unlimited length, 8K, HDR, 60fps video from anyone who signs up with an email and password. I don't have any actual numbers, but I find it difficult to imagine that YouTube Music (storing one cover image and some audio tracks for a whole album) costs them anything in comparison to the main YouTube service.

New InfluenceMap research finds that corporate net zero or similar targets are rarely matched by support for government climate policy, with 58% of almost 300 companies from the Forbes 2,000 found to be at risk of “net zero greenwash” due to their policy engagement.

I agree - I mostly get ads for things I'm actually interested in (e.g. furniture), and I don't usually buy anything from them, but it at least makes me aware that there may be a new style of products available for when I next need to make a purchase. Also on occasion there will be an advert for something which I wasn't aware existed, or which shows me a new idea to consider. I'm also happy to see ads as an alternative to having to pay for access to a site.

I am hoping for an eye-tracking mouse solution in the meantime, where looking at a portion of the screen and pressing a key on the keyboard will click rather than having to move a hand away from the keyboard to use a mouse, or wait for the analog stick mouse to reach the right point of the screen. Seems to be getting more plausible but still fairly expensive for a few years yet.

What are the benefits of focusing on biodiversity preservation? I can think of some things like food security but would global warming not also impact on those?

My guess is that they feel like Yelp is kind of taking over responsibility without their permission? I'm not a business owner but I imagine I'd feel quite protective of all aspects of it, especially when asking for money (even in dire circumstances)

This paper seems to conclude that 97% of climate science research is in consensus with the idea that human activities are warming the Earth: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/04...

>The Amazon produces a lot of oxygen, but so do soy farms and [cattle] pastures.

Could someone explain this quote from the article to me? I don't understand how a cattle pasture would produce as much oxygen as a rainforest.

I also don't understand the part about all the oxygen produced being used up due to respiration, surely that means that the world's forests would produce no oxygen for animals to breathe? That seems to completely oppose everything else I've ever seen about the oxygen trees produce.

Upload profile picture area didn't appear correctly in Edge, had to switch to Chrome. Don't know if this is intentional but it's definitely accurate from my experiences, lol.

Reminds me of some old maths software we had to use in school which only ran in 'IE 6 or higher', but if you used IE 8 or above it would report the same 'use IE 6 or higher' message and not let you use the software. That software was also the only way to check whether your answers to the practise questions in the corresponding textbook were correct, which made revision pretty painful.
