It is similar to the introduction of borderless buttons by iOS and Google. User interfaces have gotten so bad that they are hardly useable anymore. One of my favorite mess ups is the latest redesign of Google Translate on android year ago (

Yeah, but it's basically a domain as opposed to a TLD and it's hugely impractical to work with. We need a short TLD like .lan for that!

Of course. If Apple stopped supporting app installation from other sources than App Store on Mac, I am sure lots of customers would leave the platform. Developing and installing apps is the main feature of a computer. Apple emerged from thi

Same in Czechia. The accounting value is 0 but you can't just sell it for free. You have to sell it for the current market value and pay taxes from this income.

Xperia 5 is a bit bigger but still managable IMO. I suggest using https://www.kimovil.com/ to compare smartphones. Using it I was able to find smaller phones with long battery life which were my two main requirements. I wou

Nice writeup! It could be that it wrote the last value to some flash memory but since it is invalid and overflows something, it panics and will never finish booting.

The Google search results are the same. When searching for driver's license preparation, ads appear offering the purchase of a driver's license without any tests.

I used to use SoundHound originally, but their Android app became so bloated that it took a long time to start it. As a result, I switched to Shazam and have not used SoundHound since.

So-called "value ETFs" mostly don't contain stocks that I consider value stocks. A value stock's price at the time of purchase must be below the historical average market P/E multiple, with a reasonable growth ra

And ffmpeg too. It is also used by commercial video editing tools, thunbnail generation, etc. Not many people use proprietary encoder software. And HW encoders in cpu/gpu are often awful (generating big files for good-enough quality).

Great to hear. I have been using Kiwi Browser (Chromium clone) on mobile for several years precisely because of full extension support and _full Developer tools_! I will reconsider going back to Firefox after this, though...

They will just tell you to use unmodified Chrome. And soon with Web Integrity API they may start telling you to use Chrome on Windows or MacOS, rendering Linux completely unusable.
