I hate these kinds of comments, but this time it's really bothering me. Actually interested in the headline, I stopped my adblocker; my fucking God, is this what normal people face regularly nowadays? It's insane...

Considering EXEs specifically (entirely dismissing tarballs and such packages which can easily go up to several gigabytes), you cannot rely on everybody being able to download files in a reasonable time frame. I'm lucky to reside in

Quiet discarding might not always be possible in a reasonable timeframe. You still have to get all the bytes to sha256 the payload, and so what? Do you expect the user to waste bandwidth and wait the check out? Often bandwidth and time both

I think the discrimination against third-world countries are justified as that's the main source of clickspamming and like factories.

I actually think that this might be one of those cases where the borders of a graph matter a lot. The way that they styled it here makes it look like a time series, and makes it really difficult to interpret at first sight. I think flipping

Putty definitely requires you to edit its default settings, but I was in general really surprised at the level of control you have (on a Windows application). Side note: Am I in the minority for disliking how Solarized looks? It's so d
