On my phone (niche software) several fonts don't get rendered.

Of course you cannot trust it. If you are working in a publicly traded company (as an ordinary employee) you never hear strategic changes first from your management. They have to make a filing to the stock exchange before they tell you.

Can you use accounts just like Firefox containers? E.g. use right click to choose opening a link in a new tab running a different account? Genuine question from a FF user.

Have you used it?

Yeah, was also thinking is Kaspersky pro-Putin or in exile? Might have read something at some point, but have forgotten.

This statement is not more corrcect than claiming the halting problem is solvable thanks to LLMs.

Not familiar with the product. The MS name alone would make me biased. Is it really good or even better in some way? Or did you just slightly ironically mean they did not manage to make it worse than competing products?

Thanks for the terminology clarification. So ideally the services would be used by an extension that users are offered to download. Next best would be a simple choice do you want any services or not. If yes, all of them or customize.

Oracle did not even accept my credit card (the same I pay AWS and Scaleways with). So I missed that part of the experience.

Can anybody name a Microsoft interface with good UX? (Yes, the grandparent liked the Azure homepage, but that was also disputed by several others)

Switching to what? Honest question, not asking for a friend.

Right. Some people want Sync, Pocket, oneline translation, etc. Others like me just want a browser. There should be a simple option to choose between a browser and some multifunction beast that some people and even more managers at Mozilla

The Finnish example translation is wrong: "an example" should be "esimerkki". (There are no articles in Finnish.) The map shows "esimerkiksi" which means "for example". (Prepositions are relatively ra

Hmm, the addon description says "has been largely superseeded by better browser defaults"

Well, the submission guidelines even say if it's on TV it's not for HN or something like that. As a matter of fact I read it on a general news site first and then I went to HN and had to search where is it. Would have expected the

Really weird that that submission was far down on the first page yesterday and is not even on the first page 10-11 hours later.

I am not sure how much unions are present in German Tesla factories. They are certainly very present in every other German car factory. Tesla does not accept unions. In Sweden, which is unionized to a higher degree than Germany, Tesla'

It would have been helpful to summarize the message. I do not open links to that domain.

There is an https://lwn.net article on the background.

Sure, I have no problem with people wanting to fix it. My datapoint was just in reply to someone writing that tearing under X has not occurred for 5 years.

I use it. Not always great, too bloated and instructions found on the web are often for a different version and just don't seem to work. But pretty sure it's not worse than Microsoft. I'd rather burn my money than spending it

But the yearly inspection is not very strict. I see many 15-30 year old cars in Finnish traffic that don't seem to be able to pass the German inspection. Have never seen any good comparison of the inspection criteria
263.
by usr1106 2y ago
The same has been reported from Germany. Tesla has "surpassed" Romanian etc. built cars in inspection failures.

Yes. Grandparent talked about 20 years ago. 15 years ago Ubuntu required no configuration at all if you had a graphics card that worked (most newer ones did, Nvidia was a nightmare).

I do see heavy tearing when watching videos under i3 on Ubuntu LTS and a 60 Hz monitor. So what? I just don't care. Tearing in videos does not hinder me from getting my work done. Watching videos is just wasting time most of the cases

True, when it comes to loading gauge one can no longer even about a standard. Most countries have several different loading gauges even for the same track gauge. In practice I am not convinced the BART is severely impacted by their "we

I grew up in a 600,000 inhabitants city in Germany. They got EMUs in the 1930s. When they got the next generation in the 1970s all level crossings were replaced. So California, one of the forerunners in the US, seems to be roughly 90 years

It has been said the broader gauge was chosen at the time to make trains able to run safely over Golden Gate Bridge with strong side winds. My physics is not good enough to calculate whether that argument makes sense. And I have no idea how

Hmm, my naive summary of AGPL is "If you run AGPL code in your web backend you are obliged to offer the backend source to everyone using a web client". No wonder it's explicitly forbidden at Google. What does that mean for a

For them it's 0.00...1% of their business. For a small customer who deployed on their service it might be 30% or more of their development budget. Of course that's the way corporations do business. But that's why as a small o
