Frankly I just want IrfanView ported. This is 80% wasted screen space.

This is where I am, currently. There's a lot of talk about the low opportunity-cost here, but I think that relies on the assumption that there also isn't a single opportunistic person out there with access to the RCE. That doesn't strike me as a strongly supported assumption, in my experience.

Shockingly, this is the only time I've seen this xkcd comic referenced during the whole debacle. The best joke about this was already written in 2007!

That's why the time is Almost<T> instead of just T.

Well all of the linker script is just two standard memory map files, one for the 2040 and one for the 2350, so really it suggests that this needed very little code to make this work. The 6.4% shell represents a shebang line, two comments, and a single `set -e` call, after all.

This is one of the reasons why all of my browsers identify as a recent Chrome version. All of those problems just up and disappear. I started doing that when Google claimed (lied) that some of their products no longer support Firefox and would block me from accessing right up until my browser identified itself as Chrome. No bugs, no issues.

Previous versions of the Rust compiler don't just up and disappear just because I moved to a new workstation or setup a new build server. I understand it's not optimal to rely on a download always being available, but even then, that is not at all exclusive to any single language. Why would earlier versions of Rust be susceptible to this but not something like gcc? I don't see it.

They're saying due to the real world effects, the current system isn't meaningfully different from violence. They aren't advocating for violence in turn.

I'm absolutely sure there are people who do. Chromebooks just have a practically nonexistant market share compared to Windows, and a lot of those users being kids being issued school laptops probably doesn't translate to a lot of visible complaining about Chromebook-specific problems.

This will start happening to Ring cameras as well soon if it's not already.

I agree that the work culture promoting this is bad, but being sick is still simply not an excuse to fabricate quotes with AI. It's still just journalistic malfeasance, and if Ars actually cares about the quality of their journalism, he should be fired for it.

Dating apps would go out of business if they did their job, because success means leaving the platform. They make more money if they hold out a carrot and make it difficult to succeed.

This is also true of those services that "delete" your data from data brokers. Their entire business model relies on them failing to do their job.

Only three years ago, too. That kinda surprised me.
