What would be the problems? When I’ve looked into streaming video before (for normal, non ripping reasons), I’ve noticed that most are already playlists of segments. You’d just need to store the segments that are different between versions, which should be better than keeping full separate versions which is what they apparently do currently.

Yeah, I discovered this the hard way when I tried to plug a somewhat modern keyboard to a pc through ps/2 (for the theoretical interrupt-driven speed) and didn't work.

A lot of mechanical gaming keyboards still support ps/2 though for the aforementioned interrupts.

Yeah, and there was also Maemo/Meego that was also sold on stores. Neither had a very high market share.

> Because they can't do much, if anything at all?

But the Apple Watch can, and a lot of the same arguments apply to it as much as any third party watch.

> CUPS > Apple

CUPS is currently owned by apple, but they only bought it in 2007. It actually originated as an independent project by a company calles Easy Software Products.

What do you mean HUUUGE upgrade? The only difference between the 3DS and the 3DS XL is the battery. Same with the New 3DS XL and New 3Ds.

You might be getting confused because the New 3DS (which was a hardware upgrade) mostly sold in XL version in the US. The non-XL model was sold mostly as limited special editions.

Neither generation of Switch Pokemon games looked or performed decent, but I guess bad performance is a gamefreak constant since at least the 3DS

Yeah, that's what the post means. This is not a Doom level.

Sure, but this is a Demolition Man reference

> Is it the same for the current minute of the current hour ? I'm not so sure.

Yes it is. Appointments start at the beginning of the minute, not the average. (And while changing clocks WOULD change that, I'm not sure it makes a lot of sense)

A podcast is basically a list of files which are the episodes (together with episode metadata), so this would presumably fetch those and notify you when there's new ones / download them, and maybe keep track of how far along you're in each episode and provide playback speed controls.

It's pretty much historical, and initially based on the tastes of medieval priests doing Gregorian chant. It started with the handful of intervals they would use and more intervals were added as needed when music grew more complex until we got to similar-ish 12 intervals, which were then actually equally spaced later.

> What do you think Japan should do to encourage Japanese language learning among immigrants?

It really boggles my mind how many immigrants to a place (because it doesn't just happen in Japan) are fine not trying to learn the language, especially if the place doesn't even understand the languages you know. You'd think living in such a place would be enough encouragement (it certainly would be for me), but I keep seeing stories about immigrants in several places not bothering to learn a common language of where they live.

> Most people do install Nvidia’s out‐of‐tree graphics driver

Most people that use Nvidia. I specifically don't buy Nvidia graphics cards or laptops that use them in my Linux computers because they're not in-tree.
