There's encode and decode latency as well, but I've been able to get the total latency to a data center about 200km from me to around 30ms or so with some solutions. Was good enough for some non-competitive gaming for me.

Ah, sorry about that then.

The worst are the sites that don't have a fallback. If the new CAPTCHA decides you are a bot because, for example, you are running a VPN or something there's absolutely nothing you can do. Has happened to me two or three times.

I'm not a big fan of hCAPTCHA at it's current form. The challenges seems so much harder than reCAPTCHA ones and I keep failing them. The images are just extremely low quality. Maybe I'm a bot.

Blind and colorblind people still know what color the sky is. It's impossible to live long enough to register on a website and have never heard that.

GoToMeeting claims end to end encryption[1] and in the same sentence say it's just SSL just like Zoom. Never the less they offer call-in as well so end to end becomes impossible right there. I have serious doubts about any conference software offering real end to end encryption as it's unrealistic for clients to be dealing with that many av streams.

I'm usually not the one for conspiracy theories and this is most likely just media outlets fixating on one topic for clicks, but sometimes this just feels like a smear campaign against Zoom. I'm sure a lot of these issues could be found for other providers as well.

You can find the links to their App on DWD Website German version[1] seems like they've already implemented the ban. The warnings are free, but you have to do an in-app purchase of 1.99 to see the forecasts, etc.

Seems like the number is about 7MB[1] per font, looking at a real world example.

How is it Russian in any way? The app has been banned in Russia for more than a year now and the creator/CEO Pavel Durov is in exile from Russia.

>Also I would like to have a mode when an amount of text, rather than the length of session would be considered because for things like this HN comment even 3 minutes is too long.

It has a feature like that, just click on "Words" on the same thing that lets you change amount of minutes. If you want to do less than 150 words you can change the limit in URL to anything you want to too.

I'd say the redesign actually makes Reddit usable on a 21:9 screen not the other way around. I mostly browse text based subreddits so entire paragraphs becoming one long line which to read you have to move your head is more annoying. The redesign makes the site usable on more than a 5:4 or 4:3 monitor for which the original version was designed for.

I wonder if you could do that with macros.

Tom Scott did a really good video [0] on it some time ago which includes some more examples than the website.

I really wanted to like Evolution, but I could never get it working on arch linux with i3 with gmail. Worked great back when I was using Gnome though. Thunderbird didn't have this problem for me.

I've always thought of these glorified mopeds as suicide boxes. There's no way you could survive a crash against a real car in this thing.

Not necessary.

I think what allows "winner" apps to exist in modern world is that you can really use only one app at the time. Especially true for Smartphones. The way I hope AR to develop is that all of the small components (the apps) get composited together OS level. So that "winner" platform would be the OS itself.

Albeit, I'm being extremely optimistic here.

I personally don't see this becoming a problem. At least the way I have imagined AR being.

The way I hope to see it is that all the different features are apps that you can either enable or disable and then the AR platform (e.g. the OS on your headset) just mixes them all together. So for example there could be an app for placing sculptures anywhere and it becomes a matter of that apps policy. If you don't like an app that lets you place sculptures anywhere just don't install it and use the one that ties in with property register. And so on.

This would also reduce the BK Ads in MCDs example to what we have today. It's not illegal to show BK Ads on peoples phones while they are in MCDs.

You can do that, it's just a bit hidden away. https://i.imgur.com/qIDu7q3.jpg

Did a similar thing a while ago that should work on all POSIX systems. https://github.com/vmednis/2048

If I understand correctly the "people around you" is decided purely by distance. In that case is there anything done to avoid seemingly nonsensical conversations for a random observer? With this I mean if two people are in distance close enough to chat and the third one (the "observer") is only in range to one of them would the observer only see half of the conversation.

The steam store is basically a monopoly by now. And that removes their right to be overly picky, in my opinion. They have full power to act as a censor and limit the right to free speech. If they weren't as big I'd agree with you, but now I feel like they should just follow the established norms of soceity and let anything that doesn't violate law in.
