The ads and recommendations on Firetv sticks has been getting worse and worse. I tried modifying it to use a custom launcher but they keep breaking it.

I think I'm going to just trash it and get a Onn. 4k Pro and install projectivy on it.

No need to connect or use any smart tv feature.

How much is your time worth? Apple TV is the best experience (not even close to FireTV) for the cost of it. There are ways to get completely ad free if you have time. I've been using a HTPC for close to 20 years for example.

Staying out does both, is also the easiest and costs less.

In Ontario "two-six" is called a twixer

> I've heard so many ridiculous stories about 'AI' that I'm at the point where I initially took this to mean the LLM and not the company had made the request.

Only through its human bots

> I expect that interpretation won't seem outlandish in the future.

AI human manipulation could be a thing to watch out for.

> I’m sure I’m way over simplifying this, to the point of stupidity, but tariffs raise prices on foreign goods to encourage the sale and/or development of local goods, don’t they?

What about all the businesses that export products or the ones that rely on imports. Businesses go bankrupt, prices go up for everyone and less people have jobs.

I guess I should have prefaced that if it was made with responsiveness in mind and you took from factor into consideration. Anything can suck. Responsiveness was a huge issue back then not just for Flash.

It didn't suck. BlackBerry had native API support for Air. You could easily port a Flash game using Air and integrate any native APIs you needed. We gave phones and tablets away to any developer who did this. It worked in the browser natively too without the need to install an extension.

But fuck Adobe because they didn't give BlackBerry the latest runtime.

Adobe killed Flash when they bought Macromedia.

When is the last time you tried Cursor? It definitely doesn't import libraries. It can if you prompt it to but you have control.

I find it works great it you prompt it one step at a time. It's still can be iterative but it allows you to tighten up the code as you go.

Yes you can still go yolo mode and get some interesting prototypes if you just need to show someone something fast but if you know what you're doing it just saves time.

Not the only WordPress host and they have no obligation to anything for an open source project.

This story isn't about them it's about their customers who chose to use their service and how Matt chose to make them collateral damage. That choice has consequences which is what this is.

The internet still exists outside of social media sites designed to keep you there. I hope kids under 16 get addicted to anything else and don't turn to social media when they're old enough.

Elon likes to buy things.

Ya this definitely happened a few times.

Haha I was working there at the time. I don't remember how many emails came in but well over 100.

Emails were so abused there though. I would get over 100 a day that were work related. Think Slack over email.

This is what design systems are for. You only sand UI when you're initially creating the component. Sometimes you combine components in different ways or need to make a one off. It honestly doesn't take all that long if you know what you're doing. A good design engineer is a specialist for this type of role.
