Why do you think the mega rich are so keen to invest in robotics? With AI and robotics, there is no palace guard that’ll turn sides when everyone’s had enough.

Oops, how embarrassing. I stand corrected and tip my hat.

“Web printing”. Basically the printer connects to Google, the laptop connects to Google and your printing goes via Google. Why not give your advertisement profiler everything you print too?

No that’s not right.

Do you have a source for this claim? I’d like to repeat it elsewhere…

FWIW, I switched to Linux due to the amazing container support and haven’t looked back in terms of running software. The easy set up, tear down, and common monitoring makes it far more convenient to host stuff on Linux.

Run 19 but barely get over 5% usage even when transcoding 4K movies where the copyright has expired.

A narrowed focus is exactly what Mozilla needs.

Develop a browser and participate in web standards. That’s literally all they need and should do.

They can. But maintaining a modern browser engine is a MAJOR piece of work especially when there’s already another open source browser (Chromium) that is sucking in maintainers.

Firefox is dying. I’ve been a loyal user since Phoenix days but there is just no road forward. Many websites now don’t test for it. It’s in a slow death spiral. Such a shame.

FWIW, it’s actually more the publishers’ fault. Typically as a developer you get told what environment you’re targeting and how the publisher wishes to publish you.

Congrats, even this you managed to turn into a class struggle.

We have an LG tumble dryer. By far the best dryer we’ve owned.

It’s been the answer in international trade for the last 1000 years.

I don’t think I’ve explained my point very well, or you’ve misunderstood what I’ve said.

My point is all international relationship is tit for tat. Since China chose to block western social media, it’s not unreasonable for the west to block Chinese social media.

The way I read about it they were merely talking about out gamma correction. Or HDR—>SDR mapping - I wouldn’t say the article is super clear.

No. I’m implying that in general, international trade works by shared openness or shared closeness. If one country or economic region puts an import tax on something, the reciprocal thing is likely to be taxed by the opposite partner.

I was responding to someone saying “oh this just creates a monopoly for Zucks” when in fact the Chinese social companies have a monopoly in China (an ENORMOUS market) because our products are blocked over there.

So what we are doing is in line with the norm in international trade.

You are aware that no western social media is allowed in China, are you not?

If you own the client, you own the message, agreed.

So physical newspapers aren’t news?

I actually don’t really understand how they would do this. Isn’t WhatsApp end to end by protocol? They’d have to share messages at the client side. What a mess.

Oh man, it’s a nightmare and I just happened to be lucky. I ended up buying one of those passively cooled router-esque N100 boxes out of China (AliExpress) and while it was a total punt it turned out to be a great experience, and their customer service was actually good too.

Kingdel was the make/vendor and it’s been rock solid.
