They should have increased the payout. It should have been a percentage of what CF would have paid had they paid the troll.

I don’t expect attorneys to be experts in technical work. Even those who are won’t have the same experience as the literal millions of techies out there who know really obscure technology.

Oh you sweet summer child. I wish I could live in your brain.

I love podcasts but Spotify’s implementation is a fucking travesty.

It’s so sad. Reddit still comes up in my search results and I’ll check them out if I’m in a pinch. Most of these results are years old. Rarely ever get a result that’s within the last 2 years.

They were spinning gold.

They could have improved user experience, made better mod tools and built a fucking native app that competed with third party apps.

But nope.

Line must go up.

Their goal at this point is to monetize old user content.

Have it on in the background.

I never fully understood Katherine Heigl’s character and her point in the plot.

It’s decent. Not great.

Ultra technically, you’re agreeing to the literal URL. So essentially no terms.

I’m not a lawyer but given that a large company with adequate resources is doing this, I would interpret it as the terms.

We really don’t have much say in it. Sure we vote but there’s an entire segment of the country that’s afraid of immigrants whose influence is very disproportional to the percentage of the population.

Basically either offer users a dialog box asking which browser they’d like to use or offer the browsers in the Microsoft Store.

And stop telling me that “The Internet is better using Edge”, Microsoft.

While you’re not wrong, it’s not the right attitude.

I donate to Mozilla every year. It’s not chump change either. It’s the largest donation I make to an open source project. They are listed as beneficiaries in my will. When I make my donation this year, I’m going to tell them that they risk my next donation going elsewhere if they keep the path they are on.

The web is quickly becoming enshittified and we, users, have some say in this.

The Linux kernel is self supported without ads and many distros are able to make releases without ads. A browser that is our direct connection to each other and the world should be no different.

Librewolf is probably the best candidate but they rely on Firefox to continue developing. Maybe it’s time to focus on Librewolf and try to get it working with Firefox.

It has more to do with the fact that they are migratory birds. The egg thing is a carve out specifically for them due to their shittiness and that’s literal.

Don’t be intimidated though. If you’re not regularly exercising, start with a smaller goal And increase at a rate you’re comfortable with. Walking is a great activity and is great for your body and easier on your knees than running.

The point is to do more than you are now.

Yeah…I suspect the Antarctic treaty is going to go away as soon as people discover resources on the continent.

We need to get rid of the electoral college.

The biggest issue for me is when neighbors rake their leaves and my leaves blow over to them. I feel terrible about it.

It just makes no fucking sense to have that much money.

I’m haunted by a line from Silicon Valley. Rich people use money to keep score.

Short term is all that matters. Did the line go up this quarter? Then they’re good.

Killing the product is the future CEOs problem.

This 1000% because you know for fuck sure that some dev in the corner of a building that’s going to be the last holdout.

Start planning now with an implementation plan to complete a few months before the contract is set to expire. Plans like these often hit bumps and delays.

Once you’re down to the last 5%, tell them “Join or Die”.

The only reason they get to say “you’ll understand when you’re older” is because they have something to protect as they got older.

In other words, they got theirs. And they don’t want to fucking share.

It’s a shit justification.

The difference is that Hitler did it to solidify power within himself.

Biden would be doing it to solidify power within the People. Basically he would gain power to diffuse it. That’s why I called him the Sacrificial Lamb.

There will always be populous movements and a desire to concentrate power within the elites. But we can make it more difficult to do so.
