    I assumed that the fact the blog post verified the legitimacy was implied, or that people would look at it before commenting if they didn't think it was implied. My bad.

    I mentioned it because the blog post itself links back to cloudflare.pay. Of course just linking to a blog post is useless.

    It looks like they've updated the cloudflare.pay site to link to the blog post on cloudflare.com that introduces wallets. So they fixed it on the same day they launched. That's not…

    > As far as I can see, there are only three proven militaries in the world, the US, Israel and Ukraine What in your view makes these ones proven and other ones not proven?

    No-man's-lands exist (a very obvious one is the DMZ between North Korea and South Korea), but I believe the specific point was that no-man's-lands don't exist at the US borders.

    Wish I didn't have to log in to reddit to read that post. RIP useful reddit links. edit: looks like I had an extension that was redirecting to old.reddit.com, and it was old reddit…

    I'm not the person you asked, but I don't think where it is matters as much as where it isn't. It isn't at Apples headquarters.

    It's a lot smaller of a community than HN, so it will naturally have a smaller range of opinions merely due to the fact that it has a lot fewer users. That said, I don't believe it…

    I'm aware of what it means now. It used to have a more specific meaning than just "You die and loose everything than you have a meta upgrade loop". That was part of what it meant b…

    "Rogue-like" is the most over-used term these days. It now has almost no meaning, compared to what it used to mean.

    I think those are bishops, and they have different colors based on which color spaces they start on.

    In this game, I think _some_ of the less general terms (stricter definition) also apply: turn-based movement, grid-based movement.

    Since when was looking ridiculous a hindrance to being fashionable?

    Adult websites were never banned on those, as far as I recall.

    Is Let's Encrypt the only provider of SSL certificates? Genuine question! Because I assumed there were other places you could get a SSL certificate, but people in this thread seem …

    A government falls under "entity". So it's about normal people AND governments (and other entities). Still needs updating if it's supposed to only apply to governments, though.

    At work, we use Google Workspaces so that we have gmail and google docs and google sheets, and the "features" noted in this post have all shown up for us. That said, we were able t…

    The title of the thread itself says "Mega Drive-Style Shoot-Em-Up" (which implies it's not a Mega Drive game bit just one made in that style), so it's likely that's what's tripping…

    That phrase was in the parenthetical and as such doesn't seem to directly apply to the claim of "WASD is the OG OP way to navigate." Additionally, I was referring to the PRH Stella…

    Considering we're not discussing a game, it seems like a perfectly valid comparison.

    I was in a kind of similar situation. Didn't watch it when it was originally airing, though I could have. I eventually watched it decades later and absolutely loved it. That said, …

    I don't know if I'd say it's the OG way. Both HJKL and numpad predate WASD, I think.

    Are you trying to make a pun with byte/bite relating to nibble? Because that's actually where the term nibble (referring to 4 bits) comes from, so I'm not sure such a pun even coun…
