Yes, I can relate to this. I experienced this for years, until I realized... I just don't want to commit all that time to a job! Eureka!

I think the big picture is that The Onion has reached peak brand value, and its most profitable exploitation mode is to gradually lower content expenditures while maximizing revenue through ad-plastering. I hope I'm wrong, but that

I think it's a combination of several factors. One is that few people join or leave a bank because of their website. It's usually encountered already after you've deposited your money and it's going to be very inconvenie

We're in a position with a lot of power, but this is obscured from us. When we trace the strings which run from ecocide to ourselves, it is easy to see what changes we need to make.

I had a similar affair with Picasa, but at least it's allowed to be downloadable. I've never found anything even close to Picasa on responsiveness when browsing photos. Stories like this is why I rarely bother with proprietary sof

What is most surprising to me is that someone like Jeff Bezos is rubbing shoulders with the masses on WhatsApp. If I was him, I would have spent a couple million rolling my own, with gateways to web, email, and SMS.

For a few words, it's better than carrying around a dedicated keyboard. For more typing, I carry around my own standard 104-key keyboard.

One of the many reasons I've stopped buying new things, going for used instead. The off-gassing decreases with time.

Yes, it is great for that. You only have to read the CSV file once, and after that you have a nice set of tables you can query any which way you want. I use SQLite as an intermediate step between text files and static HTML, for example.

Thanks for the info on the whitespace. I think I have a post-processing solution for that, which may work. I will work to find an NT4 original ISO and get IE2 that way. I've been doing the commenting thing, and found out that Mosaic tr

This is what I was getting at, honestly. If you look at the supply chain, this pollution is the result of hundreds or thousands of unnecessary "products".
