I once felt the same "nothingness" once when I was 22 while reading a good book on a train. Eventually I closed the book to reflect on what I've read and there it was - the feeling of ultimate insignificance and a total immer

Clicked to read the article, Firefox begins to suck up all of main memory and heavily utilizing the CPU. After blocking some 1-st party script all of that ceased. Is there a crypto miner active on phys.org?

Nothing! It's fun thinking about it. I think, he's trying to say that "time" is really not a thing , but rather our perception and understanding of time makes it a thing. What we should see as time is actually some flow

Well, in my opinion, the users actually are always in control. Don't buy shady and addictive stuff. Or throw away, sell whatever you've got. But, let's face it, that's not a productive solution Google would suggest, ri

So, you clearly don't understand the hypocrisy behind Google's efforts? How naive can you possibly be? People at Google are having a job which is essentially having only the interests of the company in mind! No-no-no, do not t

It's clearly a contradiction. Companies like Google thrived on addictive behavior of users online. Now that Google basically is the Internet for consumers they want to crack down on online and tech addiction? Really? What I've r

It was a matter of time that subscription plans hit the same level of annoyance as online ads. But, subscriptions have a significantly heavier impact than ads. You cannot netflixify journalism. It's different to movies or music. Journa

I understand the gist of it and how it works. Websites provide not only dynamic ad frames they also embed trackers and the like. Abolishing "third party hosting" as you call it will make all of that not entirely impossible. The we

As long as my browser doesn't load anything from different domains other than the website's domain I don't mind. If that exists, every single website needs to adapt such practice. Anything else is a waste of breath.

by dschuetz 8y ago
I don't understand. Generally I don't mind ads if a website is giving me content I want and what I need. But, what I do mind is when whole sections of a website get their content and scripts from multiple different other domains

No, it doesn't. And that's not the issue. It's OK to make mistakes if you learn from them to prevent them from happening twice or trice. But apparently even if paid premium they don't. There were soooo many password db h

It would be fine, but people who claim to be pro in software and are being paid premium refuse to learn from mistakes, neither from their own nor from others'. They just mitigate the fallout by saying things "It's was a mista

That's great! Are we anywhere near to making homebrew ICs on silicon at home? Yes, apparently we are! But it seems we are still far away from DIY kits, or even complete prototyping devices (like 3D printers).

You see, that's my point. When products are super-designed to the extent that excellent (thus very expensive) engineering is required to make them last longer, Apple does an excellent job keeping the engineering budget low. While keepi

How do you distinct sentient beings? There are some plants which display indications for rudimentary sentience, some molds and fungi can also be sentient. Does your rather bold statement also apply there?

Hmm, but killing plants and fungi is totally OK then, yes?
