Feels like the wrong solution, having devs self-censor more is probably going to lead to more bottled-up situations

What causes this level of exaggeration? (which seems to be across all indian news sources talking about such topic), especially considering india is strong on compsci, right?

> The underlying assumption made by this policy is that if straight white men (the only group not mentioned in the allowable group) are allowed to apply, it will unfairly hurt the chances of those mentioned because they cannot compete.
Why is the assumption being considered incorrect? Go to your local toys store and tell consider what the effect of the STEM focused toys being next to the toy soldiers, and not next to the barbies and kens, is going to have on future students
And consider the effect on STEM toys usually being priced higher (for valid reasons) than other toys is going to have on children from demographics that generally lack financial freedom?
Not understanding a core concept of systematic whatever-u-wanna-call-it, before writing this article, makes it very unconvincing

not web 3 exclusive

> Guaranteed 256bit Operability
> This one isn’t exclusive to Web3 in the sense that it’s not possible on Web2, but rather, it’s not feasible on Web2.
> You can design, on web3, with the assurance that every user is guaranteed able to participate in 256bit-key features.
what does this even mean, is it just to say everyone has a privkey?

intentionally didn't scope itself within the pre-existing concept of domain name infra, but wants to be a first class alternative
tlds being owned by singular people under hns don't exactly fix the issue, do it

Sorry to be rude-ish
Probably should be able to do the same with just:
systemd-inhibit --what=idle --mode=block sh -c read
https://github.com/eonpatapon/gnome-shell-extension-caffeine https://github.com/coadmunkee/gnome-shell-extension-espresso
Or via api, which everything leads to
https://people.gnome.org/~mccann/gnome-session/docs/gnome-se...
Noting other apps generally will inhibit via stuff sent through X/Wayland afaik, so this doesn't cover all methods

> so maybe we're all off the hook! :)
Or maybe its entrapment!
Same as when accepting a job, never trust someone who says a section of their contract/terms won't be enforced.
I might need to start looking for another provider...

> We estimate that our supporters work with more than 21,000 advertisers and nearly 6 million individual websites in more than 65 countries, jointly serving over 320 billion advertising impressions each year, and having over 63 million subscribers. The companies have a combined workforce of over 40,000 employees and combined revenues in excess of $40bn.

A lobbying group with a pleasing name, wanting to weaken recent privacy-improving changes around cookies et al.
Also I'm left wondering how many people are behind this, I've counted a total of 2, the media contact, and the lawyer filing the court proceedings

https://getmetastream.com/ is an also-FLOSS alternative, instead of a server, it syncs site interactions (e.g. opening up the same video on each person's browser, and then automatically hitting play, seek, etc)
So, pros and cons of each approach

unintuitive to learn how to do things the first time, but
Download the windows version of a given application, and then use https://constexpr.org/innoextract/ (check your package manager) to extract the game files from the executable, and there will be your WADs
then for any third party engine, following the instructions provided to find where to put those WADs
- - -
Alternatively, if that still doesn't work:
https://flathub.org/apps/search/doom flathub has a bunch of engine options, including those based on free WADs
And flatpak is fairly easy to add to a system https://flatpak.org/setup/Ubuntu/

easier reselling things because reselling things sometimes involves regulation and by saying fuck regulation it makes it easier?
Not really the most convincing argument
also selling a, um, "Greg will lead three 90 minute sessions live over the course of the week." for 650 USD through to 6500 USD, and providing zero ownership of that while also calling it "shared ownership", well it ties in with the general perception of NFTs being near meaningless, doesn't it?
If web3 is tickets-for-rich-kids, then I'd still rather just buy normal tickets
