You don't have to block every bad channel that exists, only the ones that get recommended to you. And youtube tends to be quite stubborn with channels it recommends, so even just blocking a few can go a long way. But of course over tim

I have very narrow interests for video topics and it works for me at least. Of course it's not perfect since new channels will pop up, or youtube will suggest new topics (e.g. lately the johnny depp trial), but even then, you can block

AV1 is great, and I'm excited about it, but for my purposes I'm even more excited about avif. I hope apple adds support to their OSes soon (which in turn means safari supporting it)

you can snip off smd LEDs pretty easily if you have a set of flush cutters. I really like the knipex ones, they're high quality, truly flush, and very durable (this is just a random picture of them) https://cdn.bueromarkt-ag

so what's your point? people should be buying a reel of one time programmable microcontrollers that you'll have to program in an esoteric language in a proprietary toolchain and a programmer that costs more than 8 cents? Or put to

I like the way PHP does it, where the return type of a function can be Object, which does not allow null, or ?Object, which does allow null. Although I would probably still consider using an Optional<Object> type if PHP had generics (

Epiphany is a pretty good safari substitute under linux, although I do share your gripe. In the end I did just buy a used iphone 6s to test stuff on mobile safari, but I agree that I shouldn't have to. Still, I fear that if google mana

I do support this in principle, and I don't think apple should be allowed to block other browsers, and I also think they should be forced to allow sideloading in general. That being said, in practice, I fear that this will lead to badn
