Put municipal authorities in charge of the worker coops in charge of the airbnbs and UN special agencies funded by Big Tech tax levies & UN contributions in charge of the not-for-profits in charge of the googles is the extent of the dis

The interesting thing to me is how magical Stadia is, it just works. Regular 4K uninterrupted streaming at peak hours ($19 discounted cyberpunk playthrough). Could pipe 80gb down my device’s gullet in a few hours without a sweat. Xbox clo

Video games and tablets are not eroding our societies. Children’s usage of video games and tablets is their parents job, not the national government’s. I don’t know what country you’re in, but the thought of whoever is in control of mine “p

Everything related to heat transfer is still relevant and very, very interesting, but I love how dated the assumption of non renewable energy is now in that method of calculating thermal efficiency. Who cares if the perfect turbine could on

Germany is a single country in Europe (many countries). Nordstream 2 is a single unfinished pipeline in a network (many pipelines). Neither were mentioned (pipeline no flow = no cut, Germany != Europe).

They’re not European though, let’s not forget the zeal of the convert.

Sharing it here wouldn’t even qualify as an advertisement mate, feel free to throw that link in there and maybe scoop up a few more users for your troubles.

In a sense, but that’s more a “how” than a what. As you’ve described re: drinking, tying it to funding is a clear, well trodden path for the feds but let’s not forget the even clearer message, motivation and inertia that was behind it in th

There are 18,000 different police agencies at all levels of federal, state, county, and municipal government with the bulk of the force distributed at the municipal & county levels, and essentially zero agreement on how to, or whether o

The question is whether UBI reduces willingness to work, not whether small business owners struggling agrees with your politics, i.e. it is not “fine” .

I’ve come around on Figma these days honestly, but will take Paw’s quality over Postman’s funding any day. I will say as a former Mac developer who came of age and experience during the Carbon Y2K transition days, the fact you can just expe

It’s 90% Chicago & LA 90% of the time, historically. There are two ports where consumer products enter the United States from the ocean/Asia: LA, and to a much lesser degree Seattle. That’s it. Both essentially lead directly to Chi

Mearsheimer doesn’t even recognize the sovereignty of Ukraine, it’s realist vs liberal schools of thought (with realism having been sidelined for decades in the west). There’s a Foreign Affairs article version instead of the hour long rando

I can’t think of a single other video player competing on macOS UX adherence over the last 20 years, source/name a couple of these many others so we can see how they died. Because it would die. Yes, if IINA is no longer modern, it will

Meaning often comes easier when sentences are finished. IINA is born to be a modern macOS application, from its framework to the user interface. It adopts the post-Yosemite design language of macOS and keeps up the pace of new technologies

They’re implying having recorded video of a bunch of westerners on TikTok = western recognition tech.

They’re talking about ownership and management, not the cogs who couldn’t give a shit either way if it’s public or private as long as they get (under) paid.

So essentially, it’s a poorly made movie by the standards of moviedom (that makes fun of moviedom types on top of it all) but the content, message, and vibes are cutting and relatable from the view of climate scientists.

Impossible on iOS, no APIs available. Would need a macOS companion app and even then it probably won’t be allowed on the App Store.

They don’t allow it in their TOS or App Store guidelines? Desktop Safari supports bookmark (& reading list) export via an HTML file on the off chance you’re not aware, and it isn’t banned.

You’ve done much better in summing them up here then I’ve ever seen elsewhere or done myself personally. Well sluiced. Will note the writing style is almost weirder and more niche than the rigidly strange content though if that’s possible.

You’re in for a treat, it’s within a timescale of 200 years or so, but definitely. The climate, terrain, distances, ownership, and uselessness of most of the land involved really encourage preservation, albeit rotted out and rusting.

Swift.org is decent, framework docs are still very bad. Bridging RN - Apple is a hell of a market at the moment though, getting the transition on your resume is worth a look.
