This version naming is hrllaripusly awful. "It works on rotund tundra, but not alpine fresh. Hope that helps!"

You see this thinking in science too. Dark matter has always struck me as an awful solution to a model breaking down. It's basically "the numbers don't add up so let's add a fudge factor to make it say what we want". But you're generally considered a kook for questioning it now. People will spout a bunch of big words and hope you shut up if you do.

Firefox shipped sandboxing on Android years ago (before chrome) and then removed it. I'm not sure you gain much from it on Android. It eats up ram making performance crap on cheap phones and apps already run in their own app user context to isolate what they can access.

There's no technical reason you can't delete an image that's been replicated. There's an API to replicate the data, there can also be apis to delete the replicas (and apparently there are?)

There's no downside to just ignoring the supreme court if you want to. They e bitten off any teeth theyight have had.

Meh. I work in tech and a big part of my day is just communicating with non tech trying to make sure they understand. It's just part of having a job imo. We have an entire customer support department just to do it with customers.

Lawyers and judges often are just fucking lazy assholes.

I will never understand how anyone can take the osx dock and menubar seriously. They're both just objectively awful uz

I get putting it here but it should probably just be in the normal search. Search is shit on every os in general. LLM could theoretically help it find actually relevant stuff (and filter out the kink it usually surfaces).

Heh. Can you imagine if Biden said "I don't remember" about anything. We'd have wall to wall news for months wondering about dementia. Fuck we have that news even if he doesn't say it.

He showed up at a pro Palestinian protest to try and dox the students there. They asked him to leave. He ignored them and was then escorted out. People did not say nice things to him.

I'm not sure there was a lot to punish.

I mean, it's more complicated than that. Both declared themselves victor. Mainland went communist. The west couldn't live with that so they propped up to authoritarian govt of Taiwan and ignored the communist government for 30 years, funding the murder of hundreds of thousands of dissidents. They couldn't "capture" it without dragging themselves into the US's cold war fever.

It's only been the last 40 years that Taiwan has become democratic, and only the last 10-20 that the parties who wanted unification started to lose elections. Even then they keep wavering back and forth in elections some trying to tie more to China and some trying to break off entirely afaict.

He's just trying to stir up anger and resentment in people. He is mentally stable. His goal is just to make people angry.
