The GPL isn't a pain in the ass, just publish your code under the GPL. That's all you have to do.

It's custom fonts that don't share metrics with built in fonts. If they don't do that the page content jumps around when the fonts load. Custom fonts were a terrible idea, I wish browsers would just drop support for them. EDI

Generally when I want to share photos here I just use IPFS since it's free and super easy via https://anarkrypto.github.io/upload-files-to-ipfs-from-brows... Then just use the cloudflare gateway to share the link.

IME most people IRL also think XP was the peak of UI design. Personally I prefer Windows 98 (really FVWM if given the choice, and I am given the choice so that's what I run.)

I honestly can't think of a single piece of software on my current machine that knows my gender. It's really irrelevant. EDIT: Yeah? That's why I said there's nothing to complain about. I just don't think they reall

I mean they have a whole paragraph on gender, which feels like an almost completely irrelevant standard shoehorning of gender into a place it doesn't belong. I don't really see much to complain about here though and I'm usual

tbh mobile interfaces aren't even nice on phones. I own a Pinephone and normal X11 apps feel like an improvement even with that form factor.

They/them is only plural. It works ok in writing but IMO it sounds really weird to use it in casual conversation. I used to agree with the APA style guide that you should just use them but lately I've been having second thoughts

ARMs are dangerous to the degree I'd say they're fraudulent. Certainly they are if all of crypto meets your standard.

I'd say this applies better to adjustable rate loans. Some crypto isn't a scam even if nearly all the tokens are.

Token contracts have to be short to keep them cheap. If you get scammed with a token because you didn't read the contract you kind of deserve it IMO. No one reads them though, I've been surprised by the things I've found in s

No that's about right. People hate math here largely because it's unbearably repetitive.

Of course they are, Windows is unusable with them and that makes the user aware of all the insane stuff in the background saturating the IO bandwidth.

It's a conspiracy theory until it turns out to be an actual conspiracy. Just because they're right wing doesn't mean they're wrong. Most "normal" people in the US are pretty far to the right (and for good reaso

It's because the ideas come from early 20th Russian bolshevism. It's an application of Marxism to race so you can't be "racist" towards White people because they're "oppressors." It's why I wish

Giving third party developers push notifications would be a win because at least we could start building open chat applications again. Apple is pretty much single-handedly responsible for destroying internet chat apps.
