Hopefully this teaches people there are platforms to upload video other than Yotube.

Do they get to stay in the tautology club?

I think they mean the original.

My understanding is that Matrix is worse than XMPP in basically every way.

Signal is unfortunately as vulnerable to this as Telegram is, as it is a fully centralized service so once the CEO is grabbed is Game Over. Something like jabber / XMPP would be better.

So wait, Apple effectively mandates that users of their store lie to their users? Wonder if that’s something that can be tackled legally.

So now Mozilla can stop receiving their hush money, right?

if it’s a superior system, then it’ll become the new standard

Not even remotely close to how it works. Remember: we had pulseaudio as the “new standard” for a decent while.

Only after the researchers tried a Bayesian analysis

If I remember my college classes right, this basically means “we invented data to fit the curve we want”, right?

Since when has any antivirus ever had the intent of actually protecting against viruses? The entire antivirus market is a scam.

To be fair: not by our own account.

, and the laptop doesn’t have an Ethernet port so off you go to buy a usb-eth adaptor.

What, no Android USB tether? It’s been native since Debian 6 IIRC.

Damn, I had my hopes on this one. Two misses in one month is a pretty bad record.

Yes but IMO the merge conflict PPV would work and be awesome, and the straight-up bribery already works.

How did you even get the picture of the W fan? W doesn’t even provide screen capture, nor global hotkeys to make PrintScreen work.

No need to invoke copyright. They’ll just do it to own the libs.

I’m totally fine with something like 540p or 480p, although I guess that’s because my preference is good ol’ TV shows that aired in the 90s or 00s over TV cable, so I’m fine with SDTV quality. And honestly, there’s not much sense in downloading all seasons of, say, Ally McBeal in 4K when you can download 8 full glorious 90s shows with their entire seasons in SDTV in the same space.

Even with “modern” stuff, I’ve seldom found a movie or TV show post 2012 that merits anything higher than 720p. I don’t get why don’t movie codecs get a multi-res options so that for example you can get the action scenes in 1080p, even 60fps if you want, but the melancholic scenes and the quiet drama scenes and the credits in 480p. Would save lots of space without losing quality where it matters.

Oh, you believe law is fair? You sound so cute.

Maybe filing a charge.org petition to raise an alternative service to charge.org. Maybe something in the Fediverse, even!
