I get the pop-up semi-frequently from Chrome. I don't think complaining to Google has ever helped with anything; but then it's not like complaining to Apple has a better track record.

Yes, I don't know why the OS isn't tracking the pop-up by bundle id or anything. It's not like I changed my mind the last dozen times…

Eh, happened to me. Decades ago, before all this wave of preformativeness. To be fair, I _was_ addressing a small group of girls my age; at the time the gender of the people involved was simply not relevant to the topic and I didn't consider it at all.

… I wish they picked a better word, because I actually misread that as Latrine… definitely not going to be referring to anybody with _that_ at least.

There's a bunch of changes recently / coming up in Canada, so that might be good enough. I've started occasionally reading the tzdb mailing list archives for fun because of that.

Unfortunately, a Pagan successor seems closer to what a modern game looks like… modern RPGs seem to typically have a large action component.

My understanding that go at least doesn't ship their own root store; they're shipping a patch to blacklist certain intermediate certificates instead, even if whatever OS-level root store would have accepted them.

Basically, the design didn't have a way to distrust anything other than removal from the root store. Which may still happen, but that will take longer.

If you mean Comodo and Setigo, they're the same company, pre- and post-rename.

Let's just say they've had issues with signing sub-CAs before where those sub-CAs went on to misuse them before… looks like it was around 2011?

At least it kind of makes for them specifically, since Netscape did SSL initially before OSes had that functionality. Their mailing list, as far as I know, is still the canonical place for public discussion about the infrastructure.

And jsx was kind of weird because e4x existed (and was never widespread, and implementations of it went away).

I suppose the important part was that jsx needed to be compiled, which means it couldn't introduce any new security issues…

My understanding is that the OFF position is for special cases, such as on ferries (the drive-on kind, obviously) where cars are densely packed and they can shine into the staff.

Odd; the first comment I see from them explicitly mentions that he can't actually stop it due to the license, and it's just a request; per GitHub, that text existed in the first revision of that comment.

> As the author of the package that is being re-packaged here. I'm against it being repacked into here. > While licensing wise I cannot stop you, I do hope you can honor my request.

Effort is sort of a see-saw; if the writer puts in less effort, the reader needs to put in more to decipher it. If the writer literally puts in so little effort that the result is completely wrong, the reader needs to do the work to check it and find the correction.

If you put in zero effort on some programming knowledge, they would be to put in the effort to confirm that you're correct.

In that case, wouldn't it be better for uv to reject unconstrained? Gentoo (or any packager, such as homebrew / nix) is too far downstream for that. Presumably allowing unconstrained seemed to make sense in some circumstances at some point?

Pretty sure compute, storage, and transit are all of value, pre and post AI. At least, pretty sure those things still cost GitHub money.

One of the grocery stores near me actually uses that in their POS system, so you can hear it as you check out.

As an expansion on that, as far as I know there's only one implementation of Fossil. There was at least a Java one for git, I believe, and I don't think upstream git is related to libgit2 either. And GitHub is doing… something not visible from the outside.

(… looking at the parent, though, I imagine there might be some information from the inside…)

Unfortunately, somebody three levels up from you will decide that 90% is good enough and fire you. The fact that the company then crashes and burns doesn't help, because you'll already be out of a job.

FWIW, it always requires retrofitting because otherwise you'll kill the guy trying to get your power back. That, or power your whole block…

Different person, but I don't want a car that has an app precisely because it's so expensive. Cell phones her replaced way more often, and the people running the app stores are very aggressive about not supporting old apps. So within maybe half the life of the car, the app will no longer install.

They're already at the kind of range I'd be happy to trade off the other way.

I don't need 400 mile ranges; I'm happy to half that to get a shorter front so I can see the corners, a squared off hatch at the back, and proper headroom. Basically give me a smaller Transit van.

The two could make sense if they decided a normal user is a bot, and it's the humans that are not normal.

Given their push for AI, that could even be a consistent view… not great for us meat bags, of course.

(2016), -s -w + UPX.

I got confused by the mention of 1.6, since its somewhere around 1.27 these days; the article turned out to be a decade old.

Oh, its good at doing desktop applications these days? Which GUI libraries are good these days? Some native win32 binding? Are there good equivalents for Qt?

I'm interested in getting back to native application development; the job is on Electron right now and it's… meh.

> In fact I believe they could've simplified it further by getting rid of station codes. Which passenger needs to know Dhoby Ghaut is NE6/CC1/NE24?

I believe they're usually for people who can't read the language (typically, tourists). NE6 is a lot easier to memorize for people who can't pronounce Dhoby Ghaut (think people from China or something that isn't used to reading Latin alphabets).

The code + number system is also easier for tourists / people new to the area to know which stations are on the same line, and to find them if you don't know the map (just find any station on the same line and look for the correct number on the line).

Also, as mentioned elsewhere in the thread, more scrapers. They're trying to keep things accessible without JavaScript, which mostly rules out the typical proof of work solutions like Anubis (which they're definitely aware of, as they had an article on it).

Up to Win2k, I don't recall new releases of Windows leading to people lamenting the UI changes; I do remember people not liking the initial look of XP, though. Maybe it's just because complaints got more visible after the Internet became popular, though. But even now few people seem to have strong preferences for, say, Windows 1.0 (… which was pretty much a TUI, IIRC)

Yeah, I've been working around that for now by uninstalling notepad. Which actually uninstalls the store app, which in turn exposes the actual notepad executable that ships with Windows. Really confusing, and will probably break in some future version of Windows.

I don't understand why they didn't just stuff all the AI things and new features in Write, where it belongs…

Interesting, I don't really have downtime with my OpenWRT setup. Probably because I don't really touch the setup once it's there, other than occasionally doing the firmware updates.

Well, I looked it up and the game shipped in the early 2000s, and listed Pentium 266 as minimum requirements (Pentium 500 recommended).

I don't recall the 386 era and the DVD era overlapping that much…

I think a better take is:

> Do you use personal / behavioral data / usage to shape the user experience and recommendations? You do not get covered by Section 230.

If they get to exercise editorial powers, then it doesn't make sense for them to be protected from liability for choosing what to publish. If they just give you a giant firehose, then they're not doing anything editorially and they should not have any liability as clearly that's not _their_ speech.
