The video game had trans characters. But hardly anyone was ever mentioning that because the boycott was louder.

Wow, LTT must be a good channel if people are shilling so hard against it. I will check it out, thanks for the recommendation.

Broken ports, replace hard drive, replace memory, no software locks so custom software can keep it alive, replace battery (on a Switch for example).

Lots of thing right to repair could do for consoles.

The filaments themselves may be food safe but that doesn’t matter. The resulting object is not food safe not because of the material but because of the manufacturing process. Printing layer by layer leaves miniscule voids and holes in-between layers where bacteria can thrive and which are impossible to clean.

Your print is safe to eat out of the first time, but is never food safe again as it can never be cleaned from bacteria in all the thin holes.

That doesn’t seem to be the case, what are you basing this on?

It was so much better than Facebook, but if course Google mismanaged it to death.

You should tell that to Linus Torvalds, he’s developing the Linux kernel without using GitHub at all. I’m sure he will appreciate being told git is insuffient to develop a good product and write good code, the best practice is to use a Microsoft service in a particular way and nothing else can work.

Tell me, when I work on a project alone, who am I exactly requesting to pull my code and why do I need to use a feature of some git hosting website instead of reviewing, checking, debugging, merging, and reverting if necessary my change locally and using my CI/CD?

I mean, he does answer why. You can disagree about the reason but he answers your question.

Why? What difference does it make if he packages these commits in 1 or 10 PRs?

Keep in mind this is a single maintainer project, there are no PR reviews. He could be just pushing straight to the branch anyway with no PR at all.

Yeah but so could my ISP, and all in all I find it more likely my ISP would, than that NordVPN would. I don’t trust either, but I definitely trust my ISP less.

I need a VPN to get around geoblocks and to torrent without my ISP sending me letters.

NordVPN always worked perfectly fine for me. I don’t see the problem? Not saying other ones aren’t better, but it seems perfectly adequate.

Looks like the concerns are about who owns it? But how does that make it a worse solution for my torrent box?

The “single pull request” is a merge release from 79 separate commits. It’s the sum of all work, it doesn’t mean all of it was changed in one go.

Can you quote the relevant part of the bill? I don’t see it. From what I’m reading:

• The OS provider has to collect the age information from the user
• The OS provider has to make the age information available to any app that asks for it
• The developer of any app has to request the age information from either the OS or from an Application Store

There is nothing about how the Application Store obtains the age information (presumably they mean something like Google Play or the App Store that already have the information about users and of course haven’t considered anything else), and there is nothing about the OS sending the age anywhere other than an app running on it that asks for it.

Me: It doesn’t require anything of users You: Yes it does require something of developers

??

You are correct, but how does that disagree with my comment?

In this case she was drunk, and clearly regretted what she did so much she turned herself in even though she could get away with it if she just didn’t.

So I don’t believe she looked for a position of power in order to be able to do it.

No he wasn’t. Although there was a clickbait article recently that implied it in the title, while in the actual article just saying that in theory it’s possible it could happen.

You are in luck, I already explained this very article! Copy pasting my old comment below:

Notice how even the article you linked doesn’t give a full quote? It just quotes someone saying “last version” without any context of the sentence it was used in? I will give you the full quote where that comes form. Someone asked a Microsoft developer what they are currently working on, and the answer was:

”Right now we’re releasing Windows 10, and because Windows 10 is the last version of Windows, we’re all still working on Windows 10.”

It is obvious from context “last version” meant “latest version” here. And that misreading of a quote, conveniently not included in most articles, is the only source for all these news. No announcement. No journalist actually asking Microsoft about it. Just a fleeting comment by one Microsoft employee that obviously meant something else, in an answer about something else, but why let that get in the way of a good story.

And this was an answer to an audience question in a "Tiles, Notifications, and Action Center” presentation by a single Microsoft employee, on a developer conference. The absolute last place to look for a ground-breaking announcement about Microsoft’s future.

The company said it had yet to decide on what to call the operating system beyond Windows 10.

And the exact same article you linked confirms Microsoft is still deciding on the name for the next Windows? Which would make no sense if there was no next Windows?

“There will be no Windows 11,” warned Steve Kleynhans, a research vice-president at analyst firm Gartner.

There will be no Windows 11, says some guy who doesn’t work at Microsoft.

And then a bunch of cherry picked quotes about continous updates and a service model being a good thing. Yep, continous updates, just like we got in Windows Vista, and that have nothing to do with there not being new Windows versions, but that’s what the article attempts to imply.

Modern journalism is useless. Someone made up a thing, everyone else copied it. And not a single media outlet actually asked Microsoft about it. No one. Or maybe they did, but the answer meant there is no news, so let’s ignore it.

All right, then your argument relies on the licensing difference, not any technical differences between Linux root / Windows admin or source code access. Which makes sense, but it’s all hypothetical since neither company addressed this yet, either in the product or in the licensing.

No, media did say that at over point, but it was never based on any announcement from Microsoft.

What does the comparability of root/admin access change in this situation?

Suppose Microsoft adds this capability to Windows, and you edit the registry to disable it. How is that any different?

I can see the argument for something like iOS. But on Windows you would be able to add or remove such functionality. What is the difference that makes the user the OS Provider on Ubuntu but not on Windows, in your eyes?

Let’s say you own a computer store in California, you sell Windows laptops, and you setup your preinstalled Windows image with the registry edit made, because customers don’t like the silly age prompt. How are you not the OS Provider?
