Because if a website doesn’t work in your browser, but it works in everyone else’s, no one will say “oh that website’s badly written”, instead they say “what a shitty browser”.

So you have a huge web standard you have to respect, and then all the websites with non standard code you have to make work anyway.

Accelerated Firefox timeline.

That used to have a picture of an actual Phoenix and then a red panda before it got streamlined.

If ladybird keep going at this rate, everyone will be trying to cancel them by the middle of next week

The real trick is the fact that both of these do damage, and you can’t afford to ignore either.

Signaling to the police that the executive branch has your back and will support you when you kill poor black men is going to get people straight up murdered.

You’re in a car. There’s probably a charging port there. Sucks if you don’t have a phone, but it sucked before when you didn’t have change.

Parking has always been a privilege not a right, and if you’re not prepared you’re going to get a ticket.

I get that it’s annoying but if my phone broke and I suddenly had to pay for parking with coins, I don’t know what I’d do either. Everything is cashless now, where would I get coins from?

Yeah but parking has always been bad.

You had to carry change. Meters were always out of order or would just eat your change without issuing a ticket, and the people checking never gave a shit and would give you a fine anyway.

My only complaint is the app, everyone should offer a website or an app, but if you’re going to park there a few times an app does make sense.

Because they’re fucking stupid.

I can pick up a phone in either hand and type on it using only that hand, and I can play games using both hands at once. If I’m using a bracer, it means I can’t do anything else with either hand or use my off hand to interact with it.

The only problem a bracer solves is not having pockets, but even then you still need to wear a bracer.

Then you wouldn’t need to tell people to work more hours.

It’s not about what’s good for you, it’s about what’s good for the people in power. And as women increasingly turn away from the Republican party, they’re going to want to disenfranchise them.

It was a horrific story. Fortunately, it’s not actually true.

Researchers have since uncovered major inaccuracies in the Times article, and police interviews revealed that some witnesses had attempted to contact authorities. In 1964, reporters at a competing news organization discovered that the Times article was inconsistent with the facts, but they were unwilling at the time to challenge Times editor Abe Rosenthal. In 2007, an article in the American Psychologist found “no evidence for the presence of 38 witnesses, or that witnesses observed the murder, or that witnesses remained inactive”.[7] In 2016, the Times called its own reporting “flawed”, stating that the original story “grossly exaggerated the number of witnesses and what they had perceived”

This is the most famous example, but it’s for phones rather than desktops.

It’s really progressive of them to show a Jesus with Down syndrome.

Same with OneDrive.

It’s just a folder of markdown files, basically anything should work.

This deserves a classic legal response.

Dear Mr Cox: Attached is a letter that we received on November 19, 1974. I feel that you should be aware that some asshole is signing your name to stupid letters.

Tor browser is not Tor.

This is Tor https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_(network)

Tor browser is an additional piece of software built on top of it. Using the network(what everyone else means when they say tor) is unfortunately not enough to prevent fingerprinting.

No it isn’t.

And this is really important. If you go on Google tracked websites without tor, Google will still know it’s you when you use tor, even if you’ve cleared all your cookies.

Tor means people don’t know your IP address. It doesn’t protect against other channels of privacy attack.

Yes, it’s completely unenforceable.

However, Ukraine depends on US aid and if they reject the deal they’ll have to keep fighting without it.

So they’re fucked either way.

Elon Musk, took an engineering approach to reproduction, and his first five boys came into this world via IVF, and the last girl was delivered using a surrogate mother.

Was the first hit on Google.

Also.

Almost all of Musk’s children have been conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF),

Even with money, most of them seem to be IVF babies.

It’s not clear if this is for medical reasons or because no one wants to sleep with him.

Just asking questions makes it harder to sue under English libel law.

Look at the difference.

Elon musk is a Nazi.

A clear factual statement leaves room for disagreement. Maybe he’s just an edgelord fascist radicalized by 4chan but doesn’t have enough fashion sense to be a Nazi.

Elon musk is a Nazi?

Perfectly safe.

Hash tables are super efficient when they’re not nearly full. So the standard trick is just to resize them when they’re too close to capacity.

The new approach is probably only going to be useful in highly memory constrained applications, where resizing isn’t an option.
