I mean, one would hope that whenever there is a new version it’s more secure than the last one. Not that it’s true, but that’s how it should be, so bugging weird about the claim.

I pay $30 a year for Nitro Basic. It’s only $2.50 a month and worth it to me with how much I use it.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waking up an hour before you intend to⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I find I will sometimes stop the alarm instead of snoozing it while half-asleep. I need to alarm to ring again for these cases, even if rare.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Nobody is talking about piracy.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo has sent a DMCA notice to Ryujinx forks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
To play games they own on other systems?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
And programmers retain complete control of the output - it’s just a bit of text that you can adapt as needed. Same as looking up snippets from Stack Overflow. Programmers are used to finding some snippet, checking if it actually works, and then adapting it to the rest of their code, so if doesn’t feel like introducing media that you didn’t create, but like a faster version if what everyone was already doing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn't phones numbers have a "DNS" servet so we can just type in words like we do with the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
And that’s a much better answer!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why doesn't phones numbers have a "DNS" servet so we can just type in words like we do with the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
“Because it would require changes” doesn’t answer OPs question. They want to know why wasn’t it done like this in the first place, and why aren’t we making the changes to make it happen now. Of course changing things would require changes.

/usr/share? How is a random app getting write permissions to that?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Many great games wouldn’t be released without the current system giving them a chance. Shovelware is a problem, but I think it’s a fairer alternative.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨spidey senses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Gotta use that Anti-bio Beam
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is 33⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
The 6-figues line could very well be a joke without the story being untrue.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam has the best UI⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
You say that, but it applies to any store website, and yet most of them are abysmal.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yet they know what dishware I'm looking for...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Which is not in any way shady or unexpected. Airplane mode is supposed to stop your device from emitting any radio signals. GPS receivers only receive signals and don’t send any, so there is no reason for GPS not to work in airplane mode.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yet they know what dishware I'm looking for...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
And not so you are not accused of stealing? That’s my reason of getting receipts.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New delivery⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I presume the detection is so that it can send you a notification for “someone at your doorstep” vs “package at your doorstep”, not for when you are actually looking at the footage.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New delivery⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I guess “person” would be a useful one.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

Current self-driving cars

So you agree they exist. You are just saying they are not good. Just like the printer that only works sometimes is still a printer that exists, it’s just bad at being one.

But we are just arguing semantics.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't railroads need expansion joints?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Do you also complain that the movie Titanic wasn’t 30 seconds long? After all that’s all you need to show how the ship.

Thankfully most media isn’t about addressing the literal title.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
They not working in all cases is a qualifier you are adding yourself though. There are definitely existing self-driving cars. There are no self-driving cars that can handle all situations, but being perfect or finished is not a prerequisite for something existing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“It’s who I am what do that defines me” -Batman⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It’s AI slop, there is nothing “supposed” about it, just some hallucinated text.

JWST?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨billions & billions⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I didn’t say anything about Mars, I only meant the Moon mission, which I assume would slightly push the record further.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨billions & billions⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
If Musk guts NASA, then surely it would be in an attempt to benefit SpaceX and himself, e.g. by removing regulations or funneling more money to SpaceX, and with that accelerating his Moon landing program, not pushing it back.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hustle? In this gig economy?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
On the sexuality/gender thing. They are actually required to ask this in the UK. It would be illegal for them not to ask. This is because employers are required to report these statistics to the government to prove they are not influencing hiring decisions.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon shares how they survive⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Do you consider yourself unemployed? I’d say you aren’t if you are already hired for the next job.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon shares how they survive⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Correct, you can have PhD and be a NEET. What matters is that you are currently unemployed, and not studying/training either.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chrome’s New War: Killing Ad Blockers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Brave is malware that should never be used. If you need a Chromium based browser, Vivaldi is a good choice. Otherwise Firefox.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Palworld Developer Reveals The Pokémon Patents Nintendo Claims It's Violating⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
People say “Pokemon with guns” as if the guns were some kind of core gameplay. You can play through the game without ever using them. It’s a small feature, that absolutely is there, but reducing the game to that is missing the forest for the trees.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon questions our energy sector⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, the environmental issues that are orders of magnitude less problematic than literally pumping the toxic chemicals into the atmosphere like with fossil fuels, vs comparatively miniscule amount of solid waste to store inert.
