Because it's a workaround on Googles control. Next year it will be a week, then a month, then never again.
gsich··on Dogs seem to agree with humans that 'bouba' is round and 'kiki' is spiky

gsich··on Shipping JPEG XL in Chrome
>neutral non-position

This wasn't the case. Mozilla even used similar wording as Google did.

Mozilla >We might find it necessary to support the format if usage becomes more widespread, but that will be a product decision

Google >There is not enough interest from the entire ecosystem to continue experimenting with JPEG XL

(this was retarded too, but wcyd if you are forced to say this)

gsich··on Shipping JPEG XL in Chrome
[2] was anticipatory obedience from Mozilla. Good for them that they grew a spine later (or more likely: they knew that Google will implement it some time later, so the change of opinion cost them nothing).

Obviously, once the Google overlords decided it.

Another unit that requires mental load.

VHS audio was superb.

"antisemitism" loses it's meaning if you are using it this way.
gsich··on California moves to exempt Linux from its age-verification law after backlash
DNT exists, not even that is honored by websites. There is no need for a cookie banner for technical cookies.

gsich··on Bill to block publishers from killing online games advances in California
because real P2P is hard for realtime stuff. Be it timing or network port forwarding issues.

Modern Warfare 2 and 3 have an unpatched RCE. Still available on Steam.
gsich··on Linux gaming is faster because Windows APIs are becoming Linux kernel features
not a trivial solution.
