It's largely not anything new. They reworked the UI on the long standing Microsoft Remote Desktop app and added "Teams Optimization". I think that last bit was just to make me viscerally angry.

Thankfully it doesn't do this on MacOS at least. Otherwise I'd have to start reformatting my remaining Windows 10 machines with Linux (sooner than I was going to)

Microsoft seems to be terrible at naming things, but their strategy is to confuse people when their products get labeled as garbage and have a stigma attached so they can just change the name again.

That's a lot more than "seems" if it's GPL. That is "you need to release your source code entirely under GPL if you even link to this"

Maybe you need more than developers and investors. Maybe you need to convince a lot of people to start using it first for the network effect.

I assure you social media existed well before Twitter. Twitter's original niche was called "microblogging", which was novel at the time. It did solve a problem of a lot of fractured discussion and how certain types of discu

I'll save you the read of the overly verbose article: The extinction event asteroid likely kicked up enough stuff from earth with enough energy to make it to the moon.

Would it get banned if I had a patent for a novel cis-1,4-polybutadiene synthesis method?

The disagreement is this post is calling for people to stop using it entirely, even if it serves a specific purpose and works for that purpose. The author claims because it does not cover their particular needs people should stop using it.

No, because you didn't invalidate the cases for which it is used. People should continue using the feature if it meets their needs. You also didn't address spam and security issues if someone is able to endlessly produce anonymou

You post this like there's no use case for an address that just forwards to an address or reply to emails sent to you. Apple is in fact clear that is what it does in the description. https://support.apple.com/en-us&#x2

No, it doesn't. There's an important difference between wording like open "source twitch" and "open source twitch-like"
285.
by drpossum 2y ago
Titling this as "open source Twitch" makes me think this is somehow related to twitch. Why not just say "open source streaming platform for developers"?

You sure are if you knew about it (like tiktok was)

I hope this makes certain streaming platforms liable for the things certain podcast hosts say while they shovel money at and promote them above other content.

Consider a third-party cookie login flow where you go to one site to enter your password different from the site you are logging into. The password site sets a cookie which the site you are logging into will use to determine if your passwo

There are still sites out there that require third party cookies to function and it was only in the last few years you could consider getting away with this and not breaking a ton of sites.

I've got premium and am using MacOS and I've had to kill my browser several times in the last couple days because it froze up. I'm using M3s if it makes a difference.

It needs to be coupled with effective and merciless moderation towards that behavior. When your single spam post costs you $10 and it was deleted and you were permabanned within a few minutes, the only thing it's effective at doing is

You're confusing the Crowdstrike issue with Azure being down. Microsoft is ultimately responsible for anything regarding Azure even if it was a vendor that did something wrong because they choose their vendors

I'm going to follow the guidelines and not be snarky: Microsoft is not some weak company at the mercy of the market. They choose their vendors (they also actively throw their weight around with vendors) and MS on top of that is capab
