Sharparam

You can opt out of the new design and still access that.

Example: https://old.reddit.com/r/sweden/comments/

I have disabled the new design entirely in my user preferences, so I get the old design even if I don't put "old" in the URL.

Maybe that used to be the case? For at least the last few VS Code updates, it's been entirely in-app. The update is downloaded in the background, and VS Code then prompts you to restart the app to apply the update.

I was providing an example of what you can do if you want to service your car yourself but don't have the space where you live. Nobody says you have to if you prefer someone else do it for you.

What is the deal with limiting T-shirts to first 50 000 participants? (And first what exactly, first to sign up or first to get four PRs done?)

It can't be to combat spam PRs, because that would seem to instead just encourage people who intend to spam to just sign up quicker.

Here we have self-service maintenance/cleaning places for cars (often at gas stations). So if you don't have your own driveway/garage you can rent some space and have access to tools and a place to do maintenance.

Do you seriously believe people are manually pressing the spacebar to indent with spaces, or are you trying to make a joke?

On what system can you install python without Internet access?

I'm not sure for how much longer it will keep working though. With the increased fragmentation of streaming services (and geoblocking), pirating content is starting to feel more convenient yet again.

When it comes to music, I can most of the time listen to it legally via Spotify or Google Play Music/YouTube Music. When it comes to movies (and especially for older movies), the rights holders give me no choice but to pirate because they simply don't make it available for me to obtain in a legal way.

As an extreme example: I was looking up an old childhood movie "Hugo: Djungeldjuret". The rights holder have stopped distributing the movie and they no longer sell it, but they do issue copyright claims and take-down requests towards anyone who hosts it. How am I supposed to watch a movie like that in a legal way when the only distributor has stopped distributing it?

For my custom domain I set up a catch-all so *@sharparam.com gets routed to my main address. If I end up needing to reply from such an address I set up a proper alias for it (currently I use GSuite to manage it).

> I still comment on reddit and such, as I like to help people. I just come back later and remove the comments.

May I ask why? There are few things more frustrating than arriving in a help thread from search results and finding that the answer has been deleted.

Huh, it looks like it works in my country (Sweden) now. It was unavailable for the longest time though.

That feature only works in the US (and maybe a few other countries?).

On-demand streaming?

Maybe regional or depending on what bank you have. Here in Sweden you can do most things from your phone, so there isn't much of a reason to go to the desktop site usually. It's also marginally more convenient to log in on the phone app, as the authentication can be done on the phone.

Bills become much easier to pay via the phone, as you can scan the information from the invoice with your camera (for those companies that refuse to make electronic invoices available). Many invoices now use QR codes as well, so you only have to scan one thing to get all the information needed.

The radios I find to be pretty shit for me (I read somewhere that Google Play Music has a better version of that). However the "Discover Weekly" feature on Spotify I've been very happy with and every week I have new music to listen to and it's mostly things I like.

Maybe it's worse for recommending certain genres? I know my friend complains about its hardstyle recommendations.
