I think the actual take is probably closer to “I wish we went back to a time when record companies would take a bet on anyone, regardless of the overall package, looks etc”
Which tbh, is probably more of a fairy tale view of years olden days than anything else.
I’m really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.
It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go… sounds expensive
Oceania tends to refer to the region, including both Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the many small island nations.
Sometimes, we are “collectivly” treated as a continent, despite being almost all island nations with no land boarders.
Expanse tight beams are on their way
I’ve had… thoughts on this lately.
I do social dance (wcs) as one of my several hobbies. And I kind of compare ot to church now. We go once a week, we do the thing, and we have a community around it, with community leaders.
The world might be slowly leaving religion behind, but I have to wonder of we’re losing something else in the process.
(Find some WCA classes in your area, we’re all weird as fuck, it’s a often a community of introverts with a niche interest in common, and set rules of interaction (would you like a dance?))
1 or 3; maybe 4.
With several assumptions made, ultimately, they’re asking for json, and we should still return json, but what that looks like is up to you. It should be static enough that the person on the other end can write:
If json.grtnode(error) == "unauthorized access"
Do stuff
Ifnyour going to be changing the text with some regularity to contain relevant information for the error (eg, an item ID, that is now invalid), then consider a code/text and additional fields.
is it decades of hacky code, or decades of battle tested code?
I haven’t touched wordpress in… many years, but I’ve seen far too many developers look at old code and call it junk… only to break things horrifically when they attempt a rewrite.
Gotta ask yourself how Israel has hostages to exchange on “day 1” of “this” conflict

A port of a browser is relatively minimal effort. Typically, the changes are largely cosmetic, and occasionally skin deep.
Developing a browser, Firefox or Chrome, takes a huge amount of effort, and are on a similar scale to both Windows and Linux. It’s a lot. There are a lot of places to hide things. Taking all of that, and making V2 continue to work… well it’ll be alright to start with. It’s probably a flag somewhere currently. But in 2 years time? 5 years time? It will take a lot to keep V2 working, let alone back porting V3 features that people may actually want.
Just use Firefox instead.
People like to bemoan the funding model, as well as the Mozilla Foundations broad overview and general “business vibe”
Lost me at ‘Why do they need to be “rooted out”?’.
Welp, they’re a piece of shit.
This comment really feels like a reply to something. Taking sarcastic comments out of context to paint a person badly doesn’t feel good.

Turns out, that they are indeed, a piece of shit.
Ypu sre right in that the stock market, especially the US stock market, is a cluster fuck.
But it’s a cluster fuck that mostly goes up, with solid returns over the last 10-20 years in index funds. I’m not going to cut my nose to spite my face on that, especially when the populous alternatives, like being a landlord, tend to have serious ethical concerns.
For examples of why the market is fucked, something your argument clearly lacked, the biggest indicator for me is that news of large buys/saells tend to move the market much more than the actual buy/sale.
(Personal theory, derivatives pretty much control the market, and a buy/sell doesn’t interact with calls/puts typically, but the news of a sale gets people to interact with calls/puts)
I mean, that argument starts to wade in to the Mozilla foundation as a whole, and what their purpose is, and that’s a giant kettle of fish.
Theoretical game. They lowball Google on how much Google pays them. How do people react? I don’t see them doing that and say, “Man, I’m glad Firefox is reducing Google’s influence over them”. I see them making a thread about how Firefox is giving Google a discounted rate because they’re all corrupt technofacists.
The core problem there still exists IMO. Funding.
What we really need is a reasonable way for open source, free, software, that exists for the good of the whole, to get money. But that has it’s own kettle of fish, where does it come from, how big is big enough to get some, what if they charge for support, how open is open enough.
Something something, seize the means of production, communism, etc.
Ok idealist.
What is your alternative funding stream for Mozilla?
It’s bad.
Is it worse than the advertising owned browser that gives your information directly to said advertiser?
DAM DAM?
ACDSee even shows thumbnails for Affinity Photo project files
You’re telling me there’s an image managing program out there, that works with Affinity, and for some reason people aren’t talking about it???
If they had library management even close to what lightroom offers, I’d be there.
I may yet jump ship for photoshop.
You thought France had a 1.2 million USD per capita GDP? At that rate their GDP would be… 82 trillion. Dwarfing Chinas mere 18 trillion.
Interesting point - you also picked countries with significantly higher population in close proximity to major trade routes and markets.
Honestly, I went to a country per capita list, and picked out some names that stuck out. I’m not sure if you could ever find a country that’s really comparable, in many ways we are at the end of everything.
Agreed- unfortunately low value bulky goods that fetch global price means it sucks for us consumers.
One of my big pushes in the last year has been to pay attention to food miles when purchasing… and sweet fucking jesus. The cheap stuff we import, and then sell our expensive goods overseas for minor margins.
Couldn’t agree more. 4 year election cycle, cut the crap and let’s get this country better.
I think this is a trap. A lot of our problems come from how easy it is to change things, IMHO. I’m not going to go find a source now (eating my lunch), but our democracy is unique is how easy it is to change laws. A lot of other countries have more checks and balances than we go, eg a upper house. Though in comparison we have the check and balance of MMP and multiple parties having to form a coalition.
Yeah… I’m pretty sure the white space is part of the spec for a QR code.
