My primary issue with the TouchBar, losing the F keys was a concern but lot my primary one, was that it required me to look at it to use it. With keys you can feel them, and learn …

This seems like it’s conflating problems. It’s actually two different problems: 1. Is the PR suitable, and therefore should be approved, and 2. Is this person suitable to make that…

Yeah, I was also under the impression helium was in very short supply. The article doesn’t mention that, at all. But it does say the unit is quiet because it operates at a constant…

The link with the typo is in the footer.

Err... yeah, because that's what USA based companies are known for - PII protection and data privacy?!? Maybe there is some more complexity to this argument, that I'm missing. But,…

It’s tonyhart7’s lucky day https://xkcd.com/1053/

I mean, this is just this https://xkcd.com/927/ actually happening. Clearly, the answer is more standards!

I had the exact same thoughts. But, also, why is it a good thing that risk is passed down to the users of the currency? In the regular system risk is passed upward to regular bank …

There's two images where the face is transferred to the final image. The references images with blurred faces are all being used for a different reference; the pose, or "necklace",…

There is a similar option in iOS, where you give an app access to select items only.

As a less confrontational reply: from my point of view “unwanted fly tipping” is talking about rubbish. The concept of depositing unwanted, yet usable, not rubbish, things somewher…

Challenge accepted - “scon” is the only way! Why? Absolutely no logical reason, but it is, how it is.

The sound of the word just seems to capture the action, or lack of action, so well.

I don’t think Aus/NZ would use it in this manner. It would be more likely to see “no dumping”.

Dump and tip have different connotations. The tip is where one deposits refuse/rubbish. Whilst a dump and is a pile/collection of unwanted things, not necessarily rubbish. It’s a s…

That URL is 404 for me. It needs the "l" in .html added to the end to work.

My client, the sky, is suing your client for copyright infringement. Additionally my client is suing GGP’s client for the offer of water, in which my client believes they have a va…

I think this might be right up your alley, along with some of the children comments: https://rive.app It’s pretty much modern Macromedia Flash. Except a JS runtime, rather than plu…

The ascorbic acid in lemon juice is doing the work here. If you’d like read up on the science as to why it works the terms you need are polyphenol oxidase, which are the enzymes pr…

This sentiment has been repeated in a few comments. But, why can’t the deno deploy implementation be reimplemented, by yourself, by running a foundationDB server with mvSQLite[1]? …

This is a great anecdote for the need of intent. But, you also need context. Without either of those it’s very, very hard to agree on rules. And agreeing on either context or inten…

But… all of the things you mention, like much in life, are susceptible to misinterpretation. Do you know, or does it just appear that way to the best of your knowledge. The black/b…

I think Murdoch is an excellent example to compare against Musk, right now. Not because he’s an exemplar of the non-interventionist, but because he’s all business. He will buy busi…

I found it the exact opposite - I very nearly never touched it. My problem with it was you need to look at it to interact with it, which meant you weren’t looking at the screen. It…

This seems bizarre to me. Under what context would would it be legitimate for any of those things to occur? A pay raise maybe. But, why would someone (crucial part, here, being som…
