I think the actual take is probably closer to “I wish we went back to a time when record companies would take a bet on anyone, regardless of the overall package, looks etc”

Which tbh, is probably more of a fairy tale view of years olden days than anything else.

I’m really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.

It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go… sounds expensive

Oceania tends to refer to the region, including both Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and the many small island nations.

Sometimes, we are “collectivly” treated as a continent, despite being almost all island nations with no land boarders.

I’ve had… thoughts on this lately.

I do social dance (wcs) as one of my several hobbies. And I kind of compare ot to church now. We go once a week, we do the thing, and we have a community around it, with community leaders.

The world might be slowly leaving religion behind, but I have to wonder of we’re losing something else in the process.

(Find some WCA classes in your area, we’re all weird as fuck, it’s a often a community of introverts with a niche interest in common, and set rules of interaction (would you like a dance?))

1 or 3; maybe 4.

With several assumptions made, ultimately, they’re asking for json, and we should still return json, but what that looks like is up to you. It should be static enough that the person on the other end can write:

If json.grtnode(error) == "unauthorized access"
Do stuff

Ifnyour going to be changing the text with some regularity to contain relevant information for the error (eg, an item ID, that is now invalid), then consider a code/text and additional fields.

is it decades of hacky code, or decades of battle tested code?

I haven’t touched wordpress in… many years, but I’ve seen far too many developers look at old code and call it junk… only to break things horrifically when they attempt a rewrite.

A port of a browser is relatively minimal effort. Typically, the changes are largely cosmetic, and occasionally skin deep.

There’s a reason none of the ports of Chrome caught the recent snafu with Google having its own special addon that fucks your privacy.

Developing a browser, Firefox or Chrome, takes a huge amount of effort, and are on a similar scale to both Windows and Linux. It’s a lot. There are a lot of places to hide things. Taking all of that, and making V2 continue to work… well it’ll be alright to start with. It’s probably a flag somewhere currently. But in 2 years time? 5 years time? It will take a lot to keep V2 working, let alone back porting V3 features that people may actually want.

Just use Firefox instead.

The trick is to choose what to not give a fuck about.

Jack black doesn’t give a fuck about others opinions of his appearance.

He does give a fuck about death threats.

Seems pretty sensible and reasonable to me.

DAM DAM?

ACDSee even shows thumbnails for Affinity Photo project files

You’re telling me there’s an image managing program out there, that works with Affinity, and for some reason people aren’t talking about it???

If they had library management even close to what lightroom offers, I’d be there.

I may yet jump ship for photoshop.

The same as what happened when vine shut down.

Take their follows as best as they can to another platform. Continue on.

I kind of hope gaben has set up something smart for his death. Eg Valve is owned by a trust.

I think it’s far more likely there’s some sales goal and or performance indicator at play here.

The CDC told reporters on a call that it has not seen evidence of human to human transmission of bird flu and that it has tested close to 40 people since March, including the Michigan worker.

If, and only if, we see human to human transmission, then we sorry. Not before.

It depends on how bright it is where you are.

When it’s very very dim your color sensing part of your eyes, which are less sensitive to light, don’t work. Only the black and white parts of your vision work.

Kind of.

This is pretty much it.

The city knows about your protest so they can plan accordingly.

They may also make requests of your protest, eg, could you self organise your own traffic wardens to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

It’s just that in America they realized if they complain enough, they get to rub they’re hands gleefully at the thought of all that electricity they’re going to sell, AND all the public money they’re going to get to upgrade the grid!

Assumedly, to deal with a race condition.

Or regulation.

Driving prices down would require meaningful competition, or a feasible alternative, or regulation.

(Feasible alternatives do exist, eg trades, but are not treated as viable alternatives by society)
