The wallet holder replied and said they didn't like the situation and had been working on a solution, but 7 years seems a little ridiculous. I don't understand why transferring it to the Foundation isn't possible - is it that

I can't recommend a tutorial, but I could suggest finding any older 'learn HTML in 24 hours' from before frameworks were a thing (pre-2010) and get a firm grasp of the basic language. Creating a server-side thing to interact

Im not necessarily talking about Firefox (which i don't use.) Of course on the spot I'm not able to think of a big list, but my bank, the payroll company my employer uses, and Hulu. Opera is basically Chrome, and supports the same

A vast majority of websites do not need bells and whistles, especially when it breaks simple things like links, scrolling, or the back button. The end effect is a broken, incompatible web.

Maybe developers could stop designing websites that only work on Chrome too? I'm tired of seeing "your browser is unsupported" and denied access while using a chromium based alternative. Or broken features because someone had

It was nice to see C will still run execv(), I appreciate the trusting nature - maybe someone can do a Beej-like lesson

Ah thanks! I didn't know if you meant as a student, thus wanting to make your own classes. Looks great!

What does 'rejected' mean, I thought they let you sign up free? Either way, it's always nice to see alternatives, thanks for sharing

Better yet, why didn't they send a text? If calls were getting through, sms would too

Ignore the quantities - she asked for that pay and they willingly paid it. The issue was they had a deal for this movie, and they broke it, rich or not, they broke contract. And if they break it once, they'll do it again. Many actors r

We're not saving lives, but we know what we make often makes someone's day better, entertainment is important in a pandemic. Past that, the people in the industry are fantastic humans you get to know as family, and there is usuall

It happens, but at the end of the day only America looks like America, and they want that look as much as patrons demand it. Shows used to go to Canada until our tax breaks got better. Some things will always shoot here. Many projects are a

Thats the other big issue - we helped streaming get it's feet by allowing lower pay, lower benefits, and longer hours, back in 2007-8 since streaming wasnt yet considered 'viable'. They agreed to revisit it in the future whe

There is some information on IATSE's site, I'll link below. Most specifics are confidential even once the contracts are ratified; there are also two separate contracts in question. I can say, the core of it is demanding safe work

And nearly 53,000 votes too! There isnt a member that hasnt suffered on a production, so we all really are amped up to call shenanigans

Most productions started up in August 2020 with strict Covid protocols; personally I've had 1 week off since then. Crews have been doing full days, with masks. Normal work under harder conditions. They finally offered 10hr turn around

Every job in film is highly specialized, even down to construction. These are trades that are taught and passed down through years of on the job experience. It would take them years to replace every department. We do it well, fast, and safe

Ive resubmitted a post that i knew was on HN a few years prior, but forgot just how eye opening it was at the time and thought that surely some missed it and would appreciate it again. You're probably right some people do it for points

I mentioned Windows since most linux users at some point have been exposed to compilation, where as windows users aren't likely to even know where to find a compiler. I have never used NNTP, but now im curious to learn some more about

by petee 5y ago
Unless you mean binaries for Windows, I'd assume the lack of community is due to something else; IRC is definitely foreign to the younger crowd, but its not a hard hurdle to jump. Personally I avoid IRC since I just don't like &qu

Mailing lists are far easier and quicker, since all you need to sign up is your email. Thats it. No passwords, account names, download an app, etc... Not everything needs all the bells and whistles

I had the same reaction when i read it - why is this necessary? Discord is a terrible experience...even here, right off the bat, the link is expired! I'd even argue that simply using Discord just makes projects seem juvenile, and not t

I think the Ford/GM thing of using the brake lights also as the turn signal is far more dangerous -- when the brakes are on, a turn signal just turns the single light off. In traffic stopping quickly, and you can only see one light, yo

The title seems like a stretch since they then go on to say, "Audio samples were analysed objectively using acoustic analysis for measures of timing, vocal control, and quality. Subtle differences in speech timing, vocal effort, and v

I was surprised to read in the article that the code quality was good, unless they some how pulled off a major refactor since LibreSSL basically called the code a mess. If I recall, the claim was that OpenSSL prioritized issues paid for by

I agree, font is squished, and for some reason performance is terrible, causes Opera (chrome) to freeze up on refocusing the tab

Nothing! but this is social media connected device, allowing kids and adults to share a sex toy, share photos, etc...I have a hard time seeing it appropriate in that context

by petee 5y ago
I should have been clearer that the big part of my issue is that it is connected to social media, so it's not just a 14 year old with a toy, it's likely going to be a 40 guy and a 14 year old, "hey let's meet up this wee
