Then why don't you say "environment is raining outside" ?
Re:Bitwarden Dual License Model on Saturday October 10, 2026 @12:38PM (#50034567)
Proton Pass. I stopped using Bitwarden for a different reason, the mobile app was too slow when not connected to internet. I can't accept such slowness, the company will definitely give justifications for this. But I don't care, let me see my passwords or notes for a website immediately. Proton Pass is better in this regard.

People made new and better things just like companies without copyright too. In recent times companies made things worse too.

Only because devs and designers are making things so unrecognisable that people have to do that, or try to tap to see. Now those developers and designers think it is working. It's the other way what you said.

Many people I met everyday have to be given tutorials where to click in modern apps. I guess all these devs live in a bubble with other devs and make such comments.

Let's make everything a guess work and over many years forced people to learn to tap everywhere to do everything. Good game.

What are these people talking so much about another app. Are all these bots here now?

Hacker news people are unbearable. This is some next level nitpick.
Re:We built our house for LAN parties on Tuesday September 08, 2026 @07:07AM (#49608656)
Yes, this line made me angry. Privileged people from first world countries like these will increase their products prices for growth & more profit saying it's very cheap anyways.

Meanwhile common people in other countries can't even think about buying a proper gaming PC now. I bought a pre owned gpu, it stopped working after 5 months and I lost my savings.

If it's lossless, it may change the cut position to enable lossless. If you want cut at an exact place, then all apps need to re-encode which will never be lossless.

For your particular requirement, you can't get lossless quality all the time by any software.

Yes. Seems like accounts are made by fb/meta to support them in hn.
Meh. It's a trick by facebook and others to harvest data and blame people later saying people volunteered the data.

Feels like hn is filled with these proxy accounts to support fb, google.

3rd world sweatshop workers who are exploited by filthy rich.
Re:I'm 38 and I Can't Support Myself Anymore on Tuesday July 28, 2026 @01:32PM (#49087231)
Meh. Those are just Making meaningless things that tracks users, hogs computer resourses, showing nonsense social media posts, brainrot contents, changing things constantly to put in their resume at the expense of users. Would prefer if these people did not exists in first place.

Your site is non trivial.
Re:Codeberg Bans Cryptocurrency Projects on Wednesday July 22, 2026 @11:16PM (#49016461)
Nope. It's not "attacking own user base". These comments are ridiculous now. It's safeguarding a open project by removing scammers and abusers that exploit it. Scammer should host their own or use github.
Re:Codeberg Bans Cryptocurrency Projects on Wednesday July 22, 2026 @11:12PM (#49016431)
Too many scammers in crypto. It's a good decision. Cryptos and scammers can host their own.
Re:Codeberg Bans Cryptocurrency Projects on Wednesday July 22, 2026 @11:10PM (#49016418)
Are these comments written buy bots? It's the mainstream ones that have been screwing people without any recovery options, there were many horrifying top posts in hn itself in last few years.

Re:The Graph That Should Be Front-Page News on Monday July 13, 2026 @10:09AM (#48892996)
It's humans who are doing this to themself and every other species on earth. So it's true.
"Trust me bro" is what people say about open source everywhere when it's not true.
> "it is impossible to hide malware in open-source software"

No nobody said "exactly that". But many times I've seen people claiming to trust open source as it is safer and people can check and build themselves. Seen it too many times. But reality is different than what is claimed.

Nope. Not from usa. I was born in 80s and would like to stay before 2000.
Re:I taught my neighbor to keep the volume down on Tuesday February 03, 2026 @05:37AM (#46869218)
Maybe but this is not what the issue was here.

Playing loud music, tv is not acceptable. Or smoking outside that impacts others.

Is your want to do that, live alone in a forest.

Then tell me where to download that ss02 and install on PC for docx file and set default in browser?
Americas do it themselves. Imagine Americans (and they don't live in Asia, so have no right) saying Iranian Iraqi Saudis are not Asians.
You're being partly branwashed by american rich media. It's not about disliking capitalism. It's crony billionaires running the country and destroying it.

China has pulled many poor people or of poverty. Generations. You don't see this in media. You're comment is just misinformed and wrong.

Nonsense. People are still driving cars without TPMS, they can feel the difference while driving and do tire pressure checkups regular intervals depending on run. No issue.

A video shows difference between Bazzite, Nobara and CachyOS.

Why others are better than Bazzite if it's made for gaming?

But you will associate maskot or picture of any movement to annoying people when more people used it.
