There‘s certainly a risk here but that is why we have laws. E.g. in Germany, showing fascist symbols is forbidden (unless it‘s an educational/historical context). It‘s up to the people and courts to ensure the law is not overstepping

I disagree. The small groups, especially the ones with self-amplifying „high echos“ in their groups are the ones (groups or individual members of that group) that easily radicalize. That‘s how terrorist cells, guerillas, and „lone wolf“ agg

You can still walk away, but the key point is that those who do not want to walk away will still hear differing (to theirs) opinions.

I think nobody is saying WASM is better than a „native platform API/ABI“ at solving all problems. It‘s simply a (potentially) viable alternative for scenarios that are way more common than everyone thought at first. And in some situati

You can only replace what‘s already there, otherwise you‘d change the design (here orbital dynamics, thus attitude control system incl. all Math and software behind it) so much that you’re basically building a new one – and that was certain

All such satellites (incl. ISS) have 4 gyros while you only need 3, geometrically. That‘s your redundancy. You don‘t add stuff just for the fun of it but you do cost-benefit trade-offs that include e.g. weight (goes directly into launch cos

I was merely pointing out troubleshooting steps, not suggesting you take that as a solution to the issue. As I said, it‘s been worked on and latest nightly seems to improve that situation a bit.

Two things at play here: First, browser engines intentionally hold onto memory to re-use (they are allocating large-ish chunks at a time) until there is a Memory pressure Event. It‘s not leaked memory. Second, it sounds like you have quite

Do you use a Retina display by chance? In certain setups, Fx is known to use more energy in HiDPI mode. Try disabling it and see if it fixes your issue. To what I know, this issue is known to Moz and will be fixed in a few versions (it appe

It‘s not even about earning a profit. It should not be the goal of the government to collect (part of) its budget via fines, i.e. citizens breaking rules. Instead, it should always be the goal to have no need to fine. And we can actually es

The government is the only entity that does not have to (and never should) follow capitalistic rules. The government is for the people, and capitalism, by definition, is not.

I can imagine a (three-letter-agency) renting out places on AirBnB and the likes and wait for a fish to be caught in the net. Esp. in Vegas if only for gambling-related fraud (initially, at least).

Does it go beyond the minimum and old set of ciphers in use by the usual implementations? I'm asking because I firmly believe that any GnuPG re-implementation should try to improve on the current state of mail crypto [0]. [0] https:&#

If I’m not mistaken, you can even have the best of both worlds in languages with proper macro support (I’m sure you know which lang I‘m talking about): The Macro call can take the string input and „desugar“ it into bitmasks / function

Not knowing how any of this works, I think best would be having a driver that translates the raw signals into an intermediate, near-native form, i.e. basically provide a standard range X-Y-Z vector (z for Pointer intensity) with good enough

It's not clear to me what exactly you expect to Sync. Container settings (names, colors, icons, assignments) should be synced (if not, please file a bug). Open tabs will be synced, not sure how they will open on another machine (consid

Please describe the behaviour you're seeing vs. expecting. Is the session not restoring the URLs in the right container? That sounds like a bug to me. The container names (if you change from default) should be stored in the settings –

by fbender 9y ago
What do you mean by that? If your use case is not covered, you surely can write a WebExtension to provide the functionality. Containers as well as sync are exposed in the API.

The point is that many APIs no longer work even though you can "enable" legacy addons. Pretty soon, this setting will be a no-op.

These stations are all part of ARD (actually a "conglomerate" of Rundfunkanstalten der Länder) and ZDF (except Deutschlandfunk, which is a separate entity). So yeah, you already pay for these stations. If you'd watch / l

Have a look at what Mozilla is doing with Gecko (Project Quantum) and Servo. Even Microsoft is moving in a much better direction with Edge in the recent years, doing a lot of work and opening up parts of the engine. I don't know why pa

Try progressive enhancement, or at least graceful degradation. Displaying a freakin' search field shouldn't be that hard. And finally, why not load the necessary polyfills and fixes on demand? When the old/slow browsers need

Mozilla did multiple times and is doing it, sometimes even doing the work that Google is supposed to do (see e.g. the Webcompat project [1]). The point is, this problem is basically unsolvable without having the reach of Google and thus eve
