I don't know about this particular update, but when I used to work for an AV vendor we did like 4 "data" updates a day. It is/was about being quick a lot of the time, you can't stage those over 3 days. Program updat

It might have been a long-present bug in the driver, yes, but today's failure was apparently caused by content/data update.

Wouldn't that always require you to have a dedicated type? I don't know D but I'm imagining what python has. Nice thing about this go approach is you can have just functions as shown in examples. One practical use is functio

It would likely be a thermal reactor, I guess? So no waste heat, since the little heat it gives is used to generate electricity.

Yes, but then there are few idiots with modified cars (or most motorbikes in general) that are orders of magnitudes louder and can be heard from kilometers away.

Ah, my bad. I'm just constantly confused by title case titles here with the weirdest product names mixed in. Can't edit or delete my original comment it seems, sorry.

The title is thankfully not using the confusing (and frankly stupid) Title Case so it's obvious to the reader that it's not about a literal rabbit.

Well yes, but not here. While "googling" is generic, it's still a specific narrow term and it does not mean "search".

Every other query I've given to ChatGPT came up with an utterly wrong answer. Followup always yielded "sorry, I made an obvious mistake, here's another wrong answer". Confident and stupid is a very bad combination.

That's windows and games. Truly a PITA. And the worst thing is the rich companies can just bribe their way into people's computers by offering their games for free. EA and Epic are both guilty of this and I won't install that

The preface reminded me of the Koln Concert, which is apparently the best selling piano album/recording. And the story behind it is quite interesting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_K%C3%B6ln_Concert

For phones it's even easier than email as you have to accept a call. Simply don't pick up unknown numbers/unexpected calls.

I think firefox almost always could do a lot. But the out of the box experience was very lacking. Even now that I'm using it as a default browser I had to tinker with some settings, and still didn't get where I would want it. For

This "cult" era I meant was before Chrome. Now that the dust settled (many years ago) after Google ruined everything we all should be using Firefox.

I don't prefer Chrome. Chrome is the worst, I only ever used it as a second browser for Google products.

We don't need depopulation. We just need to stop eating cows, riding cars and planes so much, and buying everything from across the world. (and dozens if not millions other things, neither of which is harder than depopulation)

I hated Firefox for the longest time, because it was a sub-par browser with a cult following, but since Chrome ruined any competition I went through several chrome-based browsers (never Chrome itself due to severe lack of basic functionalit

Sublime mostly, not a fully-featured IDE I'd say. For front-end I'm using VS Code, that's only here and there, and that's where the struggle comes from. Last time I've tried Idea/etc was quite a few years ago.
