I still don't get your objection. Changing system timer settings is required to show HD videos on a browser window in a smooth way. Are you objecting to the fact that that's the case or that browser windows are being used to sh

I don't quite get your objection here. Is it to the fact that browsers are commonly used to show video, or the fact that smoothly showing video requires changing certain power saving settings?

Yeah, that claim killed all credibility of the author for me. I firmly believe that if making your point requires you to invent some statistics that clearly don't pass the smell test, it's time to accept that your point may be wr

Do you have an example of a horizontal union in practice? Or is this one of those "You can't say X is bad because true X has never been tried!" situations?

But that's what the ancestor was trying to do. Then he ran into a symbol he hadn't gotten to yet, asked about it, and got flamed for not reading the full manual!

"Unions are their members" For reference this is a textbook example of an equivocation ( https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Equivocation ). The statement has two meanings: the trivially true "A union is made u

I don't understand what your example has to do with the NaN != NaN case. You're not comparing NaN to NaN anywhere in it.
