Alt/Opt/⌥ label also depends on age/region/etc, as outlined in the blog post. You can see an example of a key with "Alt" in the second image of the post. Personally, I'm particularly fond of the "elec

I'm from Liverpool (70s/80s/90s), and of course I've heard "here kitty" but "pspsps" equally as common during my time in London (90s/00s), Cornwall(10s/20s), etc. I always thought "psps

Why can't they capture OS, Browser, and IP address at the time of error? All that information is available at the point of failure, the user should not need to email it in.

It doesn't matter who or what the service is, how much they have, or whatever else. They created a problem and now users have to pay for the inconvenience by emailing(!) specific details that could be captured automatically through web

I do donate. But that doesn't mean I have to thank them before every meal or think that the service is perfect.

Not at all. I donate to Internet Archive, but we're talking here about paying for unobstructed access to but one part of their service: Wayback Machine. Two different things.

Imagine if Apple or Microsoft introduced a bug and said, ah yes we know about it we did that on purpose and we know it affects a huge number of people, if each of you could email us these details that'd be great. It's just such an

Ah, the old ad hominem attack. How refreshing. But anyway, no, I wouldn't keep finding reasons. I donate to them every year already. Somebody asked if I would be willing to pay and my answer was "yes, but". It would need to b

They provide a free cli tool to do this.

I'd pay for it, but only if they implemented the changes the community of users have been requesting for years.

I've been getting this error a lot. Asking users to email them with details of their OS, browser, IP address is just crazy. Their support is supposedly already swamped and they are asking for more!? Changes made by IA shouldn't be

Ah, the word used on the site is "Blocked" not "banned". Apologies. A shame that you decided to not support your own country. Imagine how much you could have done whilst explaining this issue!

I guess any processes affected by this will solve this in software as time goes on?

I assume the writer is happy to speak for their own community but, quite wisely, unwilling to make unfounded claims about all other communities. But, yes, the strawberry is medicinal—everywhere.

Just found some cool old stuff thanks to this: 1996-01-17: first post! a reply to a thread in alt.music.bjork 1996-03-11: first mention of my website/homepage No links to avoid my own embarrassment.

It's a developer decision. But I'd say it's easier to not use dependencies on native because there are more capable system API. I don't use any in my iOS apps, and only one dependency in 20 macOS apps.
