The recommended SSB browser has its github page set as “archived” since 2021. And the message is “other clients should take it from here”. https://github.com/ssbc/patchwork However it’s still the first and recommended

Some countries have capital control and thus cannot send money from there easily. I lived in Vietnam for a while; there is lots of WU for people abroad sending money there, but it’s really hard to send money out. But in the end expats usual

I do this with personal Spotify (it’s much cheaper in third world countries, if you have someone than can pay for you there). Didn’t realize it’s also true for Windows. Okay.

Yes I did it by mistake, I just copied the URL. I thought people will accuse me of shilling the cheap reseller but I didn’t realize I kept the amazon referral. I’ll see if I can remove it

The linked article says this > Long story short, there are legal rules and regulations allowing a company like WBD to write down costs incurred as part of a post-merger restructuring — but only for a short amount of time. Taking shows su

I still don’t understand the accounting logic, under which it makes sense for Warner Bross to stop putting shows they own on a service they own . It’s not like it’s costing them any money!

JSON is a subset of YAML. (you can just dump JSON in your YAML document and it’s a valid YAML.) So parsing YAML will be strictly harder, as it needs to include a JSON parser.

YAML has come from Perl world. Of course it has feature creep. It’s a Perl thing.

What would be good is “strict yaml”, that is, yaml with all those weird cases strictly disallowed? Which would make it backwards compatible, as the cases would just make it invalid “strict yaml”? And I’m thinking it might already exist? I’m

What’s a better name. “Epiphany” or “GNOME Web”? Everyone calls it Epiphany anyway. So yeah I agree.

I am not sure if BONK already rugpulled. There are too many tokens with Elon Musk and Shiba Inu, and they are all interchangeable.

I hate crypto as much as the next guy, but that's nonsense, sorry. You are filtering out possibly good people. There are still, even now in 2023, so much jobs that are crypto-related, and people still need something to eat. If you are

First I was thinking, "hey maybe the recent downturn in crypto will weed out the most obvious nonsense" But now I see #1 story on Coindesk "Shiba Inu-Themed BONK Tokens Are Yielding Nearly 1,000%" So I guess we are not t

As I wrote to other reply, Epiphany (what GNOME calls "Internet", I... think?? I dislike GNOME names) is based on WebKit https://webkit.org/downloads/ edit: oh it's "GNOME Web". OK

Huh? I see three different Linux downloads here https://webkit.org/downloads/ edit: ahhh, it's not KDE/Qt. Epiphany is GNOME. Okay

This is in general problem with gpt models. When it works, it’s flawless. When it doesn’t work, it just makes stuff up that kind of look good, just to make you happy. And there is really no way to tell from the output…

yeah, this. It’s not open in any sense of the word, not even pretending to be.

This person isn’t necessarily complaining, I see it more like documenting. I still find it surprising that in some forgotten corner of Windows we get 3.11 file dialogue. But also who cares really.

It’s exactly same pointless now. You sign the hash, which is what’s colliding.

Yeah the economic growth is nice, but. Have you seen the air? Have you seen the water? It's getting all literally toxic. And, of course, all the energy is almost 100% fossils (coal). Which is funny... South Vietnam is sunny basically m
