This is why I always find it weird that in the US (and a lot of other countries) the stoplights are on the end of the intersection, instead of at the entrance. If they're at the entrance, there's no dillema - you can't cross

Jesus Christ the victim blaming in this thread is insane. This is why deepfake laws are needed. Sure OP used Meta AI, and consented, but if I did that I'd probably be consenting to using the picture _for that one session_, where I&#x27

Also, people speak languages other than English, and things like Unicode normalization mean that identical characters can be encoded differently depending on what's being used to type the password in, and I'd be willing to bet mos

The Kindle's light is much more diffuse than the iPad's though, much closer to just having a reading light on, which you'd need anyway for a physical book.

Missing from the graphics API list is WebGPU - which is not really just for the web. I've not used Metal, but from what I've heard, the API resembles Metal a good bit, which is a good thing since it's supposedly the nicest of

That's the entire concept of a public library.

I have a roll of 38% lead solder on my desk which I bought last year from Leroy Merlin in Portugal, so you can definitely buy it in Europe.

Well, you can already do extreme tinkering to the point that RPi can no longer guarantee it functioning properly :) IIRC it's just that the bootcode.bin file is provided by Broadcom, and not the RPi foundation, so they can't open

Short answer for the type ordering and `fn`: because C/C++/Java tried that type of syntax and the result was an ambiguous grammar that is way too hard to parse, not to mention C's overly complicated pointer syntax.

This website is completely unreadable on an ultrawide monitor, it seems to make the font size dependent on the window's width, which makes it absolutely massive (I can maybe fit half a paragraph on the screen?), and the browser zoom do

I think for better or for worse it makes sense that this is delegated to a separate package. For me it always seemed like a weird tangential thing that Zig did that is not really related to Zig The Language, and more to Zig The Build System

Ironically, in this specific instance (Android), it actually _isn't_ GNU/Linux. Distros like Alpine also aren't GNU/Linux.

I think it solves a different issues. This is aiming to solve a depth issue (e.g. a deeper coat rack would make a door hit it, as shown in the video) while a multi layer hanger seems to be more a "I don't have enough space for all

Yes, automations and UI can still be done using yaml (and I don't think they plan on dropping that - it's very useful to be able to put that on version control). It's mostly for configuring integrations that they've drop

This is false. While you can set a lot of things through yaml, some like setting the MQTT broker have to be done via the UI.

I'd guess that if iMessage had a market share even remotely close to that of the US, it'd be a much bigger issue and would definitely qualify. Still, here it really isn't, no one actively uses it (if they do, it's probab

Can you think of any that actually would have applied under these rules? These markets are basically entirely dominated by American companies.

If anything, YouTube is even more of a monopoly than Google, because while other search engines can index the same internet and show similar results, YouTube competitors don't have the creators behind them to create content for them, a

Completely different. Magit is basically a full git IDE, while fugitive is basically just a thin wrapper around the git command line.

Nitpicking a bit, but it doesn't. It forbids redistribution of apps downloaded from the app store, which is a requirement of the GPL, and so the app store "license" and the GPL (not free software in general) are incompatible.

It is pretty broken though, since the image looks terrible because it skips a lot of the image processing steps.

Same for me, I have a recent-ish desktop that works just fine (Haswell) but that TPM requirement means I can't upgrade... It's forcing me to throw away a perfectly functional computer if I want to upgrade.

This used to be the case, but somewhere around Android 7 (might've been 8 or 9) added proper support for autofill services.

I honestly find the opposite. Facebook's website seems to be one of the best ones of this new SPA trend, and doesn't seem to have any speed issues. The (android) app meanwhile consistently lags for me, and things like voting on po

One thing I immediately noticed is how much better neovim's built in terminal is when compared to vim! Vim's seems very barebones, afaik doesn't even support 24 bit color. Neovim meanwhile uses libvte IIRC which means it&#x27

Does anyone know how the NVIDIA situation with wlroots is now? I've heard NVIDIA is _finally_ supporting DMA-BUF instead of only their fundamentally different EGL streams, so I wonder if it's actually functional now.
