While not necessarily the particular examples you give, there is a destructive side to the willingness to spend as well in terms of environmental impact. Lots of people in the US end up with basements or garages of stuff they don't us

I am also excited about this, although I am usually not translating full pages so I still mostly use Google Translate even for supported languages. It sounds like they are working on ways to translate sections of a page. I use the Right C

I agree, this mode seems like something most people could manage without difficulty. Amusingly, my (non-Apple) system is much more locked down than this and isn't exactly unusuable IMO, although some things might be harder to manage o

I do this with uBlock Origin. It is easy and I'd say less impactful than blocking third party domain (de-CNAMEd) CDNs by default (that I also do). Some sites just don't show anything without javascript, though, so it works best

I used the BSD version of this (which seems the same AFAICT) a few times years ago and managed to misunderstand the output a few times and gave up. I doubt it was an actual error in the conversion but the UI is comically bad. The typical

Even counting only killing violence can come up in stories that aren't generally violent. For example, the Wingspan board game adaptation is great but could be seen as fairly violent considering the fish and mice shown as food, althou

Thanks! Looks like I picked a bad test case for Polish, I tried a few more and some look perfect (boring corporate text) and others around the same as Google Translate (I don't know Polish or Spanish and mostly looked at song lyrics).

Proportional representation. A major advantage of STV is that there is an easy to understand and manually count proportional version of it (called single transferable vote and used in Ireland). IMO it is best to go directly to multimember

There are --search-path and --base-path options, so if you alias say fd='fd --search-path' you can then have the required first argument be the path to search. Personally, I find changing to the directory I want to search in less

Not as efficient but uBlock Origin in advanced mode lets you get fairly close, although not with quite as fine grained control from the main UI (however you do get very detailed control via the logger and directly writing rules). The one t

SHA1 and even MD5 are broken for collision resistance, not second preimage (which is what matters for backups). While it can still make sense to not use SHA1 for anything, it is fine if you do use it. Blake3 is the one to use if you are l

Hardware support is always a big issue with a new OS designed to be run directly, it is much easier for a new OS to start the other way as a VM run by a more mature OS. Getting qemu working is also quite a bit of work, although Xen Dom0 su

Higher contrast means a lower overall screen brightness is still comfortably readable. I think many people just don't think to turn down the display brightness and think that the content on the display is causing the issue.
