I think people's eyes are just naturally drawn to faces, so more people end up seeing the thumbnail among the grid of other videos, and are more likely to watch the it as a result

You're living in a bubble if you think that people only support vaccines because of Mandates. Even in America, which is one of the more vaccine hesitant countries, the majority of adults got the vaccine long before any mandates were in

Most pro-vaccine videos are also massively disliked on YouTube, despite the fact that the vast majority of people support vaccines. I'm guessing you're a conservative, and you don't want dislikes to go away because you think

Cool product, but that website sucks. I can't read the paragraph half-way down the landing page because their shitty custom scrolling handler keeps skipping past it. Why do some webdevs think they need to re-invent scrolling?

Thanks for the explanation. I've been programming for many years, and your examples make total sense to me, but reading sentences like "Control flow analysis for destructured discriminated unions" make me feel like a total

A few years ago, I was using Windows 10 and a huge ad banner for OneDrive appeared in the file explorer . That was the final straw for me, and it's the reason I finally switched over to Linux 100% full time

Your analogy would be more accurate if the bridges were constantly being blown up by terrorists. Designing perfectly secure online systems is very hard (if not impossible). Software is very complex, and people are trying to break in constan

There are plenty of ways to communicate with friends and family. If Facebook is down long enough, many people will just move to something else. (And I hope they do)

Are you thinking of something like a short squeeze? That only happens because shorts would be forced to buy shares to cover their positions. I don't see how that would apply here. Who's forced to buy people's tether if the pr

You can find activated carbon filters online (and in many stores). Maybe that would work for a DIY solution? https://www.amazon.com/s?k=activated+carbon+air+filter

> In fairness, simultaneous use of multiple IDs is rarely handled well by modern UI'd desktops and remote services. All systems assume you have one ID, and if you have the temerity to want more, then you must log out and log back in

Teams definitely feels like it was rushed to market to take advantage of the pandemic. I'm really sad our company moved us from Slack to Teams. It's so much worse, especially on Linux

As crazy as that would be, it's actually a much better solution. Heck, it would even be better if they wanted to ban all images on the internet. But of course, banning encryption isn't actually about protecting children

Yes it runs fine on Windows 10. Version 4 came out in 2012. Old, but not ancient by any means. Edit: I mispoke, I'm using version 4.4.1. Not sure, how different that is from 4.0

+1 for Affinity Designer. I was stuck on an old version of Adobe Fireworks for years because I refused to give in to their SaaS model. The Affinity suite has been worth every penny, and I actually own the software, which is great

That's fair, but it's terrible for people like me. I hate not being able to own my desktop software. I'm a hobbyist photographer, and I use Lightroom quite a bit. I purchased Lightroom 4.0 back in 2013, and it has been worth

No kidding. I laughed at this part: "STOP DOUBLE CLICKING ON A FILE " "Instead type '$ xdg-open file'" Yeah, because that's way faster and more convenient than double clicking on an icon. This one is great
