A half decent NAS, with Dockerised *rr is the gold standard of torrenting. I never knew it could be so painless.

Adoption on desktop is 100% more related to Steam support, at least in the gaming segment. Anecdotally, among friends and colleagues, people are only staying with Windows for gamin…

The VTTES plugin for Firefox/Chrome allows for importing/exporting between OrcPub/DungeonMastersVault, Foundry, and roll20 formats. Worth checking out if you could support one of t…

> You cannot have a labor union and still be a successful company. Unions are cancer. Hard disagree.

If the government knows somebody is a danger to children, they can't just have kids. In the UK at least, they'll be taken into state social care.

Because people caught on that it's a terrible idea with terrible (unstated) goals.

That's pretty much what's been happening for the last decade. I turned off search history an age ago and I've had a slightly tailored (based on subscriptions) but mostly generic ho…

To be clear, the copyright strike is for a small two second animation in the middle of a much larger video. The correct course of action here is for Mr Beast to apologize to the an…

Most videos like this make the majority of their money in the first few days. If they get demonetized, they're effectively dead. Considering the huge costs involved, that's pretty …

I'm not 100% sure the problem you're trying to solve, but I've solved a similar sounding one that may be of use to you too. We needed to set env vars on React applications (the fro…

I think the benefits vastly outweigh the costs here. There's a lot of things that hinder people with reduced mobility much more.

Only if the URL links to a specific tweet. The feed, and users' post history requires a login.

Imagine asking for 50% Allied / 50% Axis news.

A number of local councils in the UK do for realtime news.

Sounds like they chose not to apply the policy to you. What would have stopped them, if tiit was something you wanted.

INWX AG are based in Switzerland and Germany, and offer MFA. (They call it "Mobile TAN" which is the phrase often used in german to describe SMS-based MFA but has slowly expanded t…

Swiss companies have a history of telling the US gov to pound dust. There's a list of Swiss based registrars (that provide .ch domains) maintained by the .ch NIC: https://www.nic.c…

A prepaid credit card, or virtual card (like those provided by Wise) would do the trick. Unless AWS doesn't allow those.

There's a lot of trains in Switzerland so there's a lot of apartments by tracks. For the most part, the apartments are just built well. Plus, the trains and tracks are very well ma…

Why would the US part ha e all of the talent? Are/were Activision's development teams based solely in the US? I thought they had devs elsewhere too. Might make sense if their EU/UK…

You clearly value different things to them, and that's okay. To you, a big car or house may be a sign of success. To them, it might not be. Not everyone values material things the …

We should introduce an industry best practice for account management. A "/.well-known" url for changing passwords would make this trivial to do in bulk with a password manager.

Proton's encryption is just PGP, so it works with any other provider out of the box. I prefer that over proprietary solutions. I think you can get tutanota to interop with Proton i…

And ship a commonjs version as well, if you need to support older node versions. It's trivial.

Whilst I can agree that overspending is an issue, I don't believe the cost of the "fancy" architecture is a major contributor to the costs. What's more, it's nice to have some beau…
