"Στην άκρη" I'd say.

I've watched the entire show 4 times and can understand everything by now, but I still can't say I get the humour.

It depends on the context, you wouldn't say "στην περιφέρεια της ψησταριάς", that sounds pretty fancy.

I'm Greek, and "periphery" sounds fancy here too :P We'd just say "to the edge".

I see, thank you. Hopefully it's just about not enough extension writer feedback, fingers crossed it'll get addressed!

Honest question: Why not just drop support for Safari? If Apple wants to make it hard to write content blockers, they can do without content blockers, and the users can see ads and eventually switch to a browser that doesn't show them

Oh hmm, that's true, thanks for the clarification.

Oh, sorry, you meant input normalization, of course. Please please please also add output normalization, so all people in a room sound at the same volume!

If you do AGC, you'll already be more usable than Discord, who apparently refuse to implement this. Whenever we're voice chatting in my group, it's extremely annoying that one person is quiet as a whisper and the other is AT

What did poverty look like for you? I am also from somewhere very different from this, though I can't say I grew up poor, we did okay.

by StavrosK 5y ago
Yep, exactly! Because why would someone steal when they can just go on Amazon and have the thing delivered?

That's not about smartness or dumbness, though. I don't think intelligence is correlated with poverty much, but poverty is additional difficulty, so they have to work harder for the same thing as someone who isn't poor.

I guess they mean that in many places around the world, public transportation is more usable, so people don't need cars.

This comment cannot be saying what it seems to be saying, can you clarify what you mean? Maybe it was worded oddly.

That's just economics. It's just like Apple or Samsung "magically" deciding that the price to fix your broken screen is just slightly under what it costs to buy the same phone used.

Great response, thanks!

I love it, other coins (and their speculation) can f off, I'll keep my Monero because I can actually pay for stuff with it, it's fast and has low fees. I like my cryptocurrencies usable, I couldn't care less about what price

I had been looking for a light wallet (even though I didn't know the term or that they existed back then) since before the bankruptcy. If they'd been more widespread, we'd have lost a lot fewer coins! I guess that, like me, a

Yes, your USB key needs to have resident key support. I'm looking forward to the Solo key (which is now one or two years delayed from when it was originally supposed to come out), which will apparently support thousands of resident key

The war on drugs has indeed claimed many more lives than it has saved. I think we're long overdue for more sensible drug policies that treat addicts with compassion instead of vengeance.

No, if you don't use resident keys you need the files (as the keys need to come from somewhere). The keys aren't copied to the device, they're generated on the device, more or less.

I don't know about SF specifically, but according to [1], California is doing about average for the US and is at the world's top 30 (higher is worse) for deaths per million, so I'd guess it's more #2 than #1. Is SF doing

Yes but that's a poor people problem, so who cares? I don't think it's possible for these things to be solved at any level lower than the federal, you can apply some band-aids but ultimately you need a stronger social safet
