It still seems like a nice experiment if nothing else. If only it was done in rust ;)

I've had my google activity turned off for a long time. Every so often they add a new privacy item so I keep checking back in every few months. https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity . Unless you use google services

some of those prices are insane. Why are they so much more expensive that OLED TV's of similar size? Frame rate?

At this point in my life, I just don't have time. I basically use either mp4 or PNG for all web "images/animation" when doing web pages. I don't detect browsers or the like. Unless there is some revolutionary new im

I don't think lack of tech bros manning high cost corporate square footage is what is causing the homeless, crime, and addiction problems in West Coast cities. It seems more like bad policies to me. The time window to blame everything

I suspect that it's simply ease of use. Sure you can use a mish mash of self hosting, online dedicated services, etc, but this looks more simple and cohesive and for $20 a year you don't have to worry about the overhead of all tho

I can't agree. It's much better to have a voluntary opt out like with robots.txt. I would say one of the top 10 observations about the internet is that you should consider anything posted publically there will last forever and tre

Gnome developers gave pretty thorough reasons why they made certain changes in UI and code design, or was I hallucinating that period of my life? I mean, just because one doesn't like designers' choices doesn't equate to &quo

I'm still a drip man but after about 20 years of trying all kinds of coffee, french press is still what I fall back to when I'm not in a hurry and want just a smooth flavorful coffee. I always grind my coffee and use within a day

yeah, I have a small electric ceramic burr grinder and I dont' have any of these problems. I also have a blade grinder for when I'm in a hurry/have guests. Still no problems, I might lose 1% to static.

The coffee will no doubt soak up any small spritz of water quickly, it's basically a desiccant. No chance mold will be able to use that water.

I don't know what the fix is but that's impossible. Israel has to stay a relatively united nation with a powerful military and nuclear power status or the Arab nations will immediately bulldoze it.

Other than basic needs is there "human nature" ? Some people will give you the last bite of food, others will lie to you to add to their hoard. I think laws are to make sure we all are on an even playing field (as much as possible

one way might be to demarcate civility as important as technical knowledge and allow people to get pitched by mod vote if they become snarky. Just a guess. I wish that was a rule on reddit for sure. Essentially disallowing fiefdoms
