If Microsoft was a smaller company, this would completely ruin them and the next headline would be them declaring bankruptcy after failing to fight off 50,000 lawsuits. Fortunately for them, laws don’t apply to companies their size.

Firefox can open PDFs and I’m not sure about the desktop versions, but the Android version is 117MB.

You can bet your ass they paid a lot of money to get their malware on your computer. It should be illegal to load consumer hardware with 3rd party bloatware that can’t be removed.

You need more data to recognize frames, but not a lot more data. A hash for each quality setting would be sufficient as long as they don’t start fuzzing the videos, which would be very expensive on their part.

It’s illegal to not identify an ad as an ad (unless you’re a movie maker, but that’s a different topic). All ad blockers need to do is read that indicator. That might not be super simple, but I have faith in the abilities of the brilliant people behind many ad-blocking technologies.

Myanmar’s average internet speed looks to be around 10-20mbps, so they probably stream with lower quality. Their GDP per capita is ~$1,150, so ads being shown to people in Myanmar wouldn’t be worth much anyway.

You don’t need an entire VPN just to block ads. I use RethinkDNS on Android and it blocks ads in most apps.

If they can prove you got a bunch of gold with a loan and then your descendants suddenly have a bunch of gold, but they can’t prove it’s the same gold, is that enough to make the descendants pay back the loan?

What if you did it with Monero to make it impossible to prove it’s the same money?

I only tried one example, so the sample size is pretty small, but that search engine seems pretty bad. I tried looking up “rust bevy points” in both Google and Yep. The first Google result is a library to draw points in Bevy and the rest are pretty relevant. Yep simply doesn’t have that result at all and all of their results are just generic results about Bevy.

I tried DDG for the sake of comparison and it’s somewhere in-between. The results are mostly relevant and the “correct” result is still on the first page.

Oh ok :(

As it is now, only people who read about it or live there and try to find the song will ever even know about the block. If Google refused and was kicked out of Hong Kong, just about every single citizen would notice and the government would have to explain precisely why they decided to ban all Google services over a song about freedom. I don’t think the people in charge would last long if that happened, considering how integral Google’s services are to many people’s lives.

Yeah, but that doesn’t work well on 1440p because it doesn’t scale perfectly.

I had a 1440p monitor and “downgraded” back to 1080p when it broke because I could barely tell the difference when gaming and I get a significantly higher framerate in most games at 1080p, which does make a big difference for me.

Can they really sue (with a chance of winning) if you scrape content that’s submitted by users? That’s insane.

I got a laptop with an HDD a while back because I’m an idiot “more storage space hurr durr!”

It took 10-15 minutes to boot and another 5-10 just to open a web browser when it was running Windows 10. Even once stuff was open, everything was so laggy that it wasn’t really usable. I’d miss a solid chunk of whatever we were supposed to be doing on our laptops in class when I was using it for that.

Linux changed EVERYTHING. It boots in just a couple of minutes and only needs a minute or two to settle itself before things start running smoothly. I even managed to play Hollow Knight on it with no lag!

People don’t realize how bloated Windows is until they try Linux. If your computer is slow and was made in the last 10 years, no it isn’t, your OS is.

You should tell them that if users love ads so much, you should add a slider to let people control how many ads they get. Surely they’ll only increase the ad count, right?

Yeah, I have to give it a word to start with for every paragraph. I was wondering if anyone would get that far!

I’m feeling very I’ll.

I think it’s going good to go home and get a new car and ride the bike and get a ride home and take it easy and take care of it and take care and take care and get some sleep and sleep and relax for me and you can go to sleep and sleep well too if you want to come home to help with me to work on the bed if you want it to work with you and you can come over for me to come over for a little bit if I don’t have a chance for -

apples and eggs for the night and then I’ll get them in my mouth to you when I come home for you if you don’t get it or you don’t have a lot of money and then you will get a hold on it for the first one and I will get it for you to get the rest for you to do it for them to be done for the next few days and they will get it done before they get there so we can get it and then they can go back and see it and get them done and get the money to get it to you and then you can get the -

Bepsi and then go to the store to get the money for you and your family and you will be there for you to go to the house and get the money and you can get a hold up for me to go to your place and get the money for it and get the money for the money and pay it for it to be a little more than a little bit of the way to get you in the back of the house to get it to you to be honest to you and your family and I can go to the store to go out and go to the bank to see if you can go back to work and get a ride home if that’s ok if you want me and I don’t -

Gboard suggestions are very bizarre.
