X11 is here to stay, Wayland will never be ready. You can curse others as much as you want, people who need to do work will use X.
This is wrong.
In the UK, property rights are mostly leasehold, just as they are in Singapore for HDB flats.
The government _mandates_ that certain services be used. In which world does this rhyme with "capitalism"?
It's the first rule you learn after joining basically any organisation larger than 5 people.
People on HN who are surprised are seemingly self-employed prodigies who dropped out of middle school.
Suppose you married a partner and had a baby together. When the baby is 2 y.o. you find out that you don't love neither the baby nor the partner.
Should you be allowed to correct your mistake by killing the baby?
Not all mistakes can be corrected.
They disagree with Mullvad, but are fine with Mullvad saying that.
This is plain wrong. Obtaining citizenship literally means "our system decided that you assimilated enough". If that's not the case -- don't grant it.
Otherwise you're making citizenship useless as a concept.
It's not me who is making the market, it's the people who "create content": write posts, share music, take photos.
They are not doing that any more, because smartphones are luring their attention away.
Gatekeeping works when there are no other options.
I remember the time when the only people on the internet were people who could pay for an expensive toy (a computer) with a keyboard, which they used in the evenings after their education-intensive jobs. Ah, and also naive kids of the same people.
This age is not coming back, because the reason it disappeared is smartphones.
I don't understand this mentality.
Human communication is one of the most complicated activities in existence. Most (all) clients are modelling it very poorly.
Only in the USA.
So? Many people (not all) are right-wing because they want to preserve beauty. Being a right-wing is not a rare thing, it's the second most popular belief system in the West.
>Another popular one on social media is the Greek and classical world, especially its comparative lack in modern education compared to, say, 1900. That's an easy intro to colonialism and racism
Racism is much less of a thing in Europe, compared to the USA, yet fascination with Antiquity is just the same or even higher.
I'd say yes. Reading fairy tales and historical records, we see just how huge were the prices. A pair of boots could be worth a year's income of a peasant.
In China buildings are built faster.
Well, again, it's merely an implementation detail. You could just open a second TCP connection using the in-band IM protocol, not some external HTTP. Or make your IM protocol UDP based.
But really, that's what quic was designed for, which is also not new.
>And it's easy to end up with high latency,
And yet the OS is doing just that when you open two TCP streams. It packs them into ethernet frames and keeps track of the acks. Only the OS does not know the context, so it prioritises both streams equally. (Unless some evil magic is involved.)
>And yet you find resuming uploads over http to be too hard?
Me? No. Xmpp developers? Apparently yes, as it's neither in any of the XEPs nor in any of the clients.
"Where were you during the event X? I was very far from the place you are interested in, as can be proven by this photo, sent to my grandma, have a look at the history in her phone."
Frankly speaking, Telegram is also shit. It just sucks a bit less than the rest of them.
Now tell your girlfriend's mother to do the same.
Which means that it will never work for human messaging, due to all the IoT cruft.
>Thanks to Daniel, the author of this post, we now have communication profiles which the IM-oriented servers and clients follow.
LOL, he only implemented p2p transfers when it bit himself in the tail on a plane flight.
Conversations is the best of them all, but it doesn't mean that it is good.
