Can you point me to a source? I've read conflicting articles on it and frankly I found it odd that they supposedly would layer ZFS-like features on top of NTFS.

Ogg containers have this problem that to change the metadata you have to rewrite the whole file whereas with ID3 it's always the last bytes at the end and highly efficient to edit.

And from what I understand ReFS is also implemented on top of NTFS, but this time it's real, shipped code and meant to provide some of the features found in ZFS to Windows users.

And even if you're at a desk with a permanent internet connection, the server roundtrip is never as fast as local disk access. Having fast access to history is something I don't want to miss. On top of that, having it all locally

Sounds like a rewarding game, actually, and might appeal to instincts. Not a bad idea in certain applications.

It's probably more due to having many large product groups (or subsystem groups) that don't cooperate as closely as one would like them to. For example NTFS doesn't have a 260 limit but the userland above and therefore the AP

This sounds reasonable. Case in point are other features which required a manifest with the right entries.

Given how drastically Microsoft changed in the last couple years, I wouldn't be surprised if they distanced themselves from the level of compatibility guarantees they issued in the past. EDIT: I don't think it would go down well,

It makes sense for this be opt-in, but I'd like to know how they want to achieve compatibility with apps that didn't adapt and are given such a file.

Interesting. Snapchat sounds a lot more complex than I had envisioned from hearing about it.

I've never seen Snapchat, but that description seems to contradict the sibling saying it can be text only too.

Don't forget that there's a vast number of African Americans who do not condone the use of the n word freely and for fun as it happens these days. I believe their main objection is that it takes away from the meaning and history a

If it confuses users who don't understand why it's different for their friends, it can be perceived as such.

Out of curiosity I just tried and it never fully loaded and with NoScript and such it didn't work for me. Is it supposed to work in the default config with NoScript and via Tor?

Wayland and Weston work and there's also non-Weston compositors (window managers) like sway, kwin, gnome and more that actually work decently enough with Xwayland integration for running legacy (X11) apps.

The general idea of a captcha is valid and sound, but it's a problem if captchas turn into crowdsourced labor for Google's neural net. First it was reading house numbers, which was easy and not that time intensive, thus acceptable

Hadn't seen that before. But there's one disadvantage with breaking captchas: have you been challenged recently with Google captchas? They take much, much longer to solve and oftentimes you don't even pass. This is with their

Most users don't care because there is no way and they're not technically minded enough to complain about it. They would use it if available. I can cite many examples of non-technical users who had conversations like "do you

Also with a phone it's kinda bad if you want to use it for communication right now and have to take the risk and wait of applying the update.
