Okay, who’s going to pay for that?
bzb4··on Wirecard hired actors to fool auditors
Journalists have bills to pay.
bzb4··on California short on firefighting crews after Covid-19 lockdown at prison camps
Yes. For example, this website is moderated by a team of inmates.
bzb4··on Can't you just right click?
Apple probably won’t delete the app from user phones, but it won’t be available to new users anymore (those who have never downloaded the app using their Apple account) and Epic will be unable to submit new updates to the App Store, which in practice kills the app
bzb4··on Can't you just right click?
I think people are mostly bitching about iOS, since it will be impossible to run the game on iPhones and iPads anymore at all.
bzb4··on Show HN: An animated graphing calculator implemented in a pixel shader
Webm is not compatible with iPhone. Can’t you make it output standard mp4 files?
bzb4··on Shadow traffic: site visits that are not captured by typical analytics providers
Client side analytics won because setting them up involves copying and pasting some code into your HTML code.
bzb4··on An example of how brands build fake reviews on Amazon
It’s practically Darwinism—ignore reviews, or suffer.
bzb4··on Laying the foundation for Rust’s future
What I want to see is a Firefox foundation.
bzb4··on An example of how brands build fake reviews on Amazon
I’ve done it too, you get lots of free stuff in exchange for writing reviews. One would be stupid not to take advantage of that.
bzb4··on Best Package Manager for C
People have been developing serious projects in C for decades, so it clearly works.
bzb4··on California under counted Covid-19 cases after TLS certificate expired
TLS and DNS, screwing people over since…
bzb4··on How China’s Expanding Fishing Fleet Is Depleting the World’s Oceans
Thanks for putting into words why I don’t want this to happen :)
bzb4··on How China’s Expanding Fishing Fleet Is Depleting the World’s Oceans
I worry that once that time arrives the government will force us to consume it by severely taxing actual meat.
bzb4··on Ask HN: Is the word “bot” losing its meaning?
If I remember correctly, when you start playing the game, they match you against actual bots, which are pretty much unskilled. Maybe that’s why he uses that word.
bzb4··on Trump says he is considering pardon for Edward Snowden
Do you have any actual proof other than the fact the script was created months after the leaks?
bzb4··on US plans to produce ‘Iberian’ ham in Texas and Georgia
> A bit ironic to see Spaniards afraid their natural resource are stolen from them and be made available on the South American market. I mean, it's not like they did the same with Avocado, tomato and so on and so forth. Not to mention all the gold from South America.

This is not twitter, leave your 500 years old hatchet by the door.

bzb4··on 'Street Crisis' team to replace San Francisco police on mental health calls
Because you find that person annoying. That’s what the police is for. Or maybe not, but it certainly works in many cases.
bzb4··on Google resumes its attack on the URL bar, hides full addresses on Chrome 86
That extra human readable section is not added for humans. It’s added for SEO. That is, for Google.
bzb4··on What's the future of Servo?
Thunderbird is okay because it was basically a finished project when it was forcibly emancipated. Servo won’t have the same luck.

Same thing Facebook has been doing since forever?

bzb4··on Tesla Gets Crushed in Germany by EVs from Volkswagen, Renault, and Hyundai Group
How are dealers in Europe a monopoly?
bzb4··on Tesla Gets Crushed in Germany by EVs from Volkswagen, Renault, and Hyundai Group
>Going to a dealer? Nope. Supporting emissions cheaters? Nope. Supporting automakers who had to be dragged to develop EVs by Tesla? Nope!

Seems like things 0.1% of buyers care about. Really, not buying the car you want to avoid talking to a dealer? Is that some kind of social phobia?

bzb4··on Herman Cain's verified twitter account shares posthumous attack on Biden/Harris
I mean, his name was Cain...
bzb4··on The structure of KDE, or how anarchy sometimes works
Considering the KDE community has taken over 10 years (since the jump to 4) to get to the half assed point where they are now, I’m not really so sure about this. Reminds of the serious problems Valve has been having.
bzb4··on Smaug, the brand new OVHcloud backbone network infrastructure
That’s good, it means they won’t bother me about whatever I choose to host. Thanks for your recommendation!
bzb4··on Microsoft Surface Duo – Dual-screen Android phone
That’s how it usually works on android.
bzb4··on Reddit Admins Takeover My Novelty Account and Handed It to Comcast
It never was your account.
bzb4··on Mozilla lays off 250 employees while it refocuses on commercial products
The mentions of “racism”, “advocacy”, etc on this post make me want to puke. All while firing people from servo, rav1e, etc. Make a bloody good browser and stop meddling with politics, dunces!
