  • Apple Begins Testing End-to-End Encryption for RCS Messaging

    Jump

  • RCS is hardware-bound garbage.

  • Intermittent fasting no better than typical weight loss diets, study finds

    Jump

  • Except that's not what 99% of the punditorium espouses - for the last 15 years it's been a continuous litany of "intermittent fasting is THE answer", and anyone disagreeing is roundly condemned.

    Despite 80 years of diabetes research that contradicts much of the argument for fasting.

  • What's stopping youtube from just going full authoritarian and mandate DRM for all their videos in attempt to prevent people from downloading it or block ads?

    Jump

  • To add, you could always capture via the output video too, regardless of the DRM nonsense. Once it leaves the device in a format a display can present it, any device that can utilize that signal can record it.

    There's always a million ways to skin the cat.

    Jump

  • Only enough to make the average user comply.

    Again, enough friction.

  • Nothing good ever happens in a ravine.

    Jump

  • Fine, fine, good shower thought. Simple. Concise.

    Upvote applied.

  • Is there a way to have a button on the taskbar that will perform the Win+M keyboard shortcut (i.e. 'minimise all windows') when clicked?

    Jump

  • If your mouse works out of the box.

  • Ah, yes, resort to name calling when you're called out on being disingenuous.

    How old are you again?

  • But it wouldn't be as entertaining!

  • Ad-blocking is piracy, and that's okay

    Jump

  • Ads were a big source of malware around 2000.

  • To Fly Free in Space

    Jump

  • The guts it took to do that. Anything could have gone wrong.

    Yes, extensive testing was done, lots of planning and safety to ensure nothing went wrong. Things can still go sideways.

    Must've been an incredible feeling too. I remember it being a big deal at the time.

  • Realistic armour

    Jump

  • I finally checked out the etymology of armor/armour.

    Somehow, only British English spells it "armour". Even the original French doesn't spell it that way, but "armeure".

    Usually the atypical spelling is post-Webster American, due to his attempts to make spelling simpler.

    In this case, no spellings match the original French/Latin.

    Now I feel old.

  • Are there any examples of 'perfect' software?

    Jump

  • Automotive engine control computers.

    They just work, for decades and millions of miles.

  • Are there any examples of 'perfect' software?

  • Hahahahah

  • For glory

    Jump

  • Its not even that hard, it's like what, 20 episodes, maybe?

  • Storyden: A forum for the modern age.

    Jump

  • Such a great point.

    I've refused to use software that require things like Discord or Telegram for support.

    Use a proper tool on your website.

  • People with the gene that makes cilantro taste like soap: What do you mean by "Cilantro tastes like soap"? In what way does anything taste like soap?

    Jump

  • No, that's not how it works at all.

    I had no idea it tasted "soapy" to some people until I was... Older. Like multiple decades in age.

    Then I only found out from a friend who'd become one helluva cook and he told me it tastes like soap to him - and that's how it is for some people.

  • In your opinion have humans ever been cloned?

    Jump

  • I am a meat popsicle

  • How do you make a person shut Up when he says, 'Oh, I saw you talk/laugh for the first time haha' everytime you talk /laugh?

    Jump

  • Embrace and extend.

    Or in the conversational sense - agree and escalate to absurdity.

    "I know, right? Its the craziest thing that we never talk. Not sure how that happens since we see each other all the time, totally weird. Hey, have you tried these chips? They're fantastic" and walk them over to something new.

    But say it completely genuinely, like you two are in on something together, like it really happens that way.

    What you want is to be seen by everyone as being good natured about it, and just having fun. You're also taking charge of the frame, and changing it.
