Remember when looking up a restaurant online loaded a full screen flash movie with an outdated menu and loud music you could not stop? The reason why we abolished everything else apart from the DOM was that as soon as we had anything else it just marginalized the open web by not being flexible and adaptable. Active X controls, Silverlight, Flash and Java applets all did more or less what you are requesting while not being fit for mobile.

No, but if the country where you built your house changes. Then your adress is going to change no matter what.

Or run NetBus :-D

I remember watching "Triumph of the Nerds" as a appx. 10 year old (it aired some years later in Norway). Two quotes stuck with me from that. The first is Ballmer mocking IBMers for bragging about how many KLOCs they had written every day. He's point being that the code is not the product. The other was Ellison complaining about the software distribution models at the time. "Don't put software on plastic discs, plastic discs in cardboard box, cardboard box in a warehouse and later in a store. Instead put the software on the net." I remember calculating how long it would be to download the full Windows 95 disc on my 28.8 modem, and thinking that it would be long time until that was feasible.

The chemistry set the voltage and the voltage and the size set the capacity. Everything else equal, a larger capacity battery is often compatible with an original smaller capacity battery in a given device because the charge current will be lower in relation to the capacity.

I really oppose the notion that “European legislation … disproportionately impacts American tech companies”. US tech has a profound impact on the lives of everyday Europeans while the US has almost no checks and balances in place for the tech industry. Europeans are ought to be able decide how they want to live their lives and build a society. This must include deciding how much influence American tech companies shall be allowed to have by passing laws for Europe.

I had a friend whose Athlon Thunderbird was crushed under the heatsink, but everything seemed worked apart from playing MPEG clips under Windows. I guess that some part of the acceleration for full monitor video or MPEG decoding used a component in that portion of the chip (3D Now! ?).

We do not know that prices are coming back down. Perhaps they will just sit while inflation slowly makes them seem normal.

I’m very impressed with how easy Omarchy is to get going for someone who knows enough about Linux and computers to take over the rudder and steer the ship to wherever they are going. Proprietary tools like 1Password and Spotify are in place. It works wonderful in a Mac centric SaaS organisation. Actively developed and refined. It would be great to have a traditional taskbar oriented distro like this. But in the meantime I can run this and forget about my OS for a while.

I also have the same problems with reimbursements, but I think that is because my brain has already given me the dopamine of getting the money back, simply because it is my money to claim. The tiny problem that I won't get the money unless I claim it, seems to be ignored by my brain.

And Walmart has it in stock in Anchorage. So a moot point.

It incentivises clickbait. The creators that we are talking about provide value in long form videos. If all you need to get paid is a five second view (lower bars to payment) the market will adapt and “automated solutions” will take a chunk of what now goes towards creators.

Innovation is only linear in hindsight . Pure speculation on my part but once CF made some leaps in a particular area this enabled them to gather more data and shift direction to reach their over all goals by stifling the causes and the innovation that lead them there. New management comes in, requirements change and this is evident to us on the outside as disjointed behaviour. Companies need to make money from the internet for it to exist. Companies also need to behave and refrain from tragedy of the commons for the internet to keep existing as we know it.
