FYI if you use your country ccTLD instead of .com, the agency in charge will help you recover a domain even if you lose access to your registrar somehow. Just make sure that your whois is always accurate (whois is rarely public for cctld, no reason to put fake info).

Ditching the standard bodies that gave us xhtml and then never fixed its warts you say? Why would they do that !?

Why are you lying and spreading FUD? I work in the industry and Microsoft is by far the most picky one and their filtering is totally opaque.

It's not very hard to get along with Gmail spam filters unless you're trying to send thousands of mails.

Right. So let's not use the imperfect local clients that still work well. Let's just keep complaining about how Google is a big meanie for not making mail.google.com work offline (somehow) instead.

You clearly live in a bubble, I've never heard of ig being used for im.

Yes, assuming the perp took the victim promptly to the hospital, I don't see why it should be qualified as murder unless there are antecedents.

I can relate to wanting to silence something very distressing/aggravating by any means necessary but as a Society we've decided that adults should know better and should be held responsible for such mistake/accident. And I tend to agree. So manslaughter it is.

Enough of this no true scottsmanship.

"Scientific consensus" is taken as gospel by many people. Most on this very board. They don't care to learn how the consensus was reached (usually happens by just ignoring detractors). They just care to feel superior to people outside the consensus because "duh, science".

> What's the proper inference: that he kept going with bad parenting and escalated to murder?

The path is this: he is known to have shook at least one kid before, so maybe that's that happened again with the kid who died in his care. Doesn't mean there was an intent. Just that he shook too hard or the wrong way. So you ask a doctor you check for signs. Doctor says yup, totally SBS. The end.

At no point did he need to "escalate to murder", so there is no leap needed. It's all very straightforward.

Entreprise is minimum 12k/yr but it's typically more than that. It absolutely should entitle you to no-bs customer support.

Big tech lowered the bar so much that y'all just have Stockholm syndrome...

There's always one of you, like clockwork... What does the engine have to do with the issue at hand?

> That's what email forwarding is, i.e. using IMAP or POP.

No, mail forwarding is SMTP and requires no access to pop/imap. What you're thinking of is the ability of Google to fetch from other accounts using POP.

Once mail forwarding is setup you can lose access to the account and it will still with. In contrast pop fetch will only work as long as you can log in the account.

They can both achieve similar goal (have mail from one account show up in another), but they work in fundamentally different ways

How do you subscribe to Google One if you can't sign onto your account?

Create a new account just to give Google some money and pray that they'll give you support about another account?

I'm convinced that (American) ISPs do passively log unencrypted DNS requests, so replacing their DNS with things like quad9 and not using dot/doh is mostly pointless, but the question was: will the isp hijack the response? I've never heard of one doing that, you?

thepiratebay.org has always been the domain, it never changed (expect for a brief period where they lost control of it due to internal infighting). You're probably thinking of something else.

> Some, but not all, actually do so

Can you name one that does?

There's no need for FUD here. You've clearly read that one article about (based on a tweet) like we all did. But OP said it was the third party recommended by Apple themselves. So this isn't any third party, they likely have the required tools. Meaning any failure would likely stem from incompetence.

The delays, however, are because Apple forbids third party to stock pile parts, they have to order as needed. So that's the aspect you should attack, if you really want to hate the fruit company.

Tons of things are necessities: food, water, medicine, clothing. You repeating that doesn't change the fact than many people CAN'T AFFORD IT.

Doesn't matter if they'll die without it, doesn't matter if you feel they should be forced to have one. The reality doesn't care about your feelings.

And FOOD cost less than a dollar per day in those places. An AC, including electricity, and assuming their house is airtight enough to keep the cold, costs the same as 20 years worth of food.

Check your privilege, as they say.

> People die in their homes by the thousands every winter in Europe.

I find that hard to believe. Do you have a source? Preferably one that doesn't include zone of wars.

Why so in love with pyqt? There are a million other ways to write good GUI apps without having to distribute a full python and qt environment.

You said electron sucked. That might be, but vidcutter, the subject of this thread, isn't proving your point. Just goes to show that who writes the code has more impact than the tech stack when it comes to such tools.

I don't know if all the numbers are accurate but it's true that vidcutter does weird things. I think it extracts ffmpeg to the temp directory on every start for whatever reason (it's not like it's a portable executable, it requires installation so why not extract it then?).

I can't explain why it uses more memory or how they managed to make it look alien despite using QT (so much for accusing electron of not looking native).

I suspect it is true, strictly speaking.

In optimal orientation, Voyager's signal peaks at -160dBm when received on the 70m dishes. Now it's shooting 2 degrees off which means the signal misses earth by hundreds of millions of kilometres. What kind of magical high gain antenna do you envision that could still receive it, assuming money isn't a problem?

It was confusing to me. Took me a while to realize it was a date and then had to deduce what it represented.

Frankly before your comment I wasn't going to complain because I saw the tantrum you threw when people corrected you on the usage of "bricked" but maybe next time spell the month to avoid ambiguity.

Surely you have a source for this claim? Something more than his donation to anti gay marriage lobby (which is a fair bit away from wanting genocide)?

Not everybody agrees with you that Meta should be the arbiter of truth. Or that we need an arbiter at all. I'm perfectly happy with having no labels on my social media.

Likening the situation to having no safety switch on guns is simply absurd and an appeal to emotion.

Fascinating how to keep moving the goalposts.

Firefox refuses to implement pwa. Chrome has pwas but they're not isolated.

Apple is the only one with sane pwa but somehow they're the worst and are totally sabotaging PWAs because something something walled garden?

You've left 12 comments on this thread. In all of them you're very confident about your superior understanding.

And yet you seem to be really confused about the difference between DNS and a domain name registration.

Curious.

> I currently have a list of fourteen people waiting for a code.

That tends to happen when there's an exclusive club, people want to peak in. It is, in no way, an indication of the quality of the platform.

> the waves of repugnant users or miserably overbaked features.

That tends to happen when there's hardly any users at all. The "repugnant" or "normals" will flock in all the same, if the platform ever takes off.

> the utter lack of ads is delightful.

That tends to happen in all pre-revenue startups. Twitter was ads-free for years.

Nginx is started as root but it does not run as root, it changes its user after opening log files and sockets. (unless you use a lazy docker container and just run everything as root inside it).

The reactions were predictable when you consider:

1. Some HN users might/could have been personally inconvenienced by OP's action and they prefer resenting him rather than GitHub for whatever reason

2. Many HN users get paid a lot to work on SaaS themselves, so seeing a peer (however big it is) get abused for (what appears to be) entertainment is terrifying to them
