“Think of the children” is somehow the gotcha for so many of the hard-of-thinking amongst us.

Thanks, and for that Issue link. As you say, I expect it’s just nuking the cookie and everything related to it just disappears.
At least it’s on someone’s radar. :)
If I’m sick in public and don’t know the cause (i.e. could be COVID), I’ll wear a surgical mask. If I’m in an environment where COVID/similar may be likely from others, I’ll wear an N95 mask.
I have boxes of each, left over from the coronalypse, so it makes sense to me.
Staggering that Myst is at that price. Sure, it’s great, but it was one of the first CDROM games and its gameplay reflects that.
Bananas. 30 minutes later it’s “hello fibre and potassium, time to visit the loo!” But seriously, there are so many great fruits.
Some from me: Blackberries are my hands-down favourite (and available everywhere in the wild in the UK autumn), raspberries, apples (so many varieties), navel oranges, mandarins, dragon fruit, watermelon, pears, rockmelon/cantaloupe, soft peaches (rare; most need a hammer and chisel), plums, damsons (in jam), and grapes.
Most level-headed reaction to the issue I’ve seen to date. Thanks for saying it.
If a company has had a decent record to date, I prefer to wait to see if they hang themselves with their own rope rather than rage quitting on insufficient information.
They’ve done some questionable things in the past that can be explained by over-zealous PMs and such, so I’ll wait to see how this plays out.
Linux users: People have problems with web(p|m)? Huh, TIL.
An important question, usually conspicuous by their absence with confirmation bias-related posts. But in this case, the source is provided. You can check for yourself and let us know, if you have a Xitter account to see the replies.
Unless Elmo’s added yet another layer of enshittification. It’s hard to keep up.
“This is illegal!”
Bung in the post
“This is legal… for a fee!”
If the punishment is a fine, it is targeted at those who can’t afford the brib—I mean fee.
Great video. (For those unaware, the video’s title is just copying the one used by a UK newspaper when the game was released).
Parallax was one of my favourite C64 games, and Sensible Soccer and Cannon Fodder were my favourite Amiga 500 games. Just amazing.
Growing up outside the UK, I was completely unaware of the Daily Star’s manufactroversy and the RBL’s IP-related histrionics.
The whole full circle thing aside, I’m delighted we’re still able to do this 🖕🏻 with the current protocols.
My choices > your shareholders.
As someone once said about director’s cuts with films: they’re a double-dip scam.
If the cinema and home media releases were the same, they’re just trying to make you buy the same thing twice by pretending that this is what the director really wanted it to be. The distributor really likes your credit card.
Having said that, Taylor Swift has something like 28 versions of the same album out and her stans are going crazy for it, treating them like they’re Pokemon.
Whatever floats your boat. 🤷♂️ Don’t let this old dude yuck your yum.
I definitely admire the integrity and the effort.
But, economically speaking, you get what you incentivise for: if you can game the system and get the click/eyeball ratio, then they’re going to do that.
Nice. But as a BitWarden user, it’s useless to me. I’ve never put all my eggs in one account basket.
Passwords on one service, MFA on another, email on yet another, etc.
Saw that in the cinema and went into real (medical) physical shock at the kerb-stomping scene. I’d never thought of or seen that before. Holy crap, it shook me for hours after as I warmed up again, etc.
TIL this is a thing. I started doing that over 30 years ago with SLS and Slackware when that was the only choice.
This was pre-PnP (also pre-JPEG!), so you had to know all the addresses, IRQs, DMA info, etc, of your hardware or you’d get… unexpected results. make
it and they will come…
After countless distros and flavours over the years, I still use Debian for servers and now use EndeavourOS for desktop/laptops.
If the SIM standard didn’t change every few years, presumably for the same reason CPU pin-count changes ($$$), this might be a great phone for international travel, protests/marches and such.
As for Snake: meh, it’s fun, but it’s easy enough to code for yourself… Angela Yu’s “100 Days of Code” taught me that. ;)
I think you’ve got the right approach, FWIW.
Not sure that big business favouritism is the intent, but it’s definitely more lucrative for them. Especially with Vimeo and other alternatives out there.
I remember when streaming took off in a big way - some on YT and others on justin.tv (later Twitch and now Amazon’s Twitch) - and I thought you’d have to be objectively bonkers to rely upon an opaque and ever-changing algorithm for your financial future. Some have gamed it well, but it’s pretty easy to see how they’ve survived - fake shock/reaction content, alt-light or worse content, polarising opinion, thinly-veiled advertorials, and so on.
If using Firefox:
I use a bunch of others, but the above are my bare minimum.
Don’t believe anyone who tells you that one extension does everything.
I once wished for this, especially back in the days when there were next to no laws regarding it, but there’s zero chance as the money and attention has moved to it. There’s political capital in demonising online discourse.
