morder··on Uber arbitration award over Emily Normandin-Parker’s death
i think the keyword is "forced". there's very little now that the consumer can do because it seems everything requires arbitration now and people still have to operate in society.
morder··on Tim Curry has died
as far as i understand it he requires a cameo in any film/show that uses his properties (in this case the trump hotel). he wasn't asked. it was required. supposedly most of the scenes filmed by other productions just end up on the cutting room floor but that one was left in.
morder··on Tesla tells HW3 owner to 'be patient' after 7 years of waiting for FSD
It barely nags at you if at all. I haven't seen it nag at me in a long time when I take my hand off the wheel. I assume it's because of the camera watching the driver that they allow it but I'm not sure.
morder··on Perfume reviews
Probably your sense of smell changes over time. Same with people entering/leaving your life and your memories being malleable.
morder··on YouTube asks channel owner to verify phone, permanently overwrites personal info
here's my redirector `https?://www\.reddit\.com(?!/(?:(?:media|gallery|settings)\b|r/\w+/s/))([/#?].*)?` regex that fixes `/s/` links as well as many others
morder··on YouTube asks channel owner to verify phone, permanently overwrites personal info
it's the /s/ link that does it. https://old.reddit.com/r/VirtualYoutubers/comments/1iqmul1/i...
morder··on MapTCHA, the open-source CAPTCHA that improves OpenStreetMap [video]
i really need the ability to zoom in or have it larger. the default size for me (even with my browser default at 130%) is way too small for me to make anything out.
morder··on Web page annoyances that I don't inflict on you
You can somewhat solve this by using some css to specify the offset from the top the anchor should be. `scroll-margin-top`
morder··on Save Music, Save the Archive
Musical Theater would like a word with you.
morder··on Stop Microsoft users sending 'reactions' to email by adding a postfix header
I would love to disable that on my client. I never want to see reactions.
morder··on Microsoft will switch off Recall by default after security backlash
One difference is that you can get root access after the fact and get however much prior data Recall recorded vs only going forward.
morder··on 3D + 2D: Testing out my cross-platform WASM graphics engine
Right click the scroll bar and choose "scroll bar options" then under "behavoior" select the 2nd option with the source overview set to "wide"
morder··on Receive push notifications from your rice cooker
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSTNhvDGbYI Great Technology Connections video about how it works.
morder··on Oh shit, my app is successful and I didn't think about accessibility
Until you're disabled.
morder··on Gravitational Collapse of Spongebob
yeah, if you're not logged in you get shown tweets in random order.
morder··on Class Action Against General Motors LLC, OnStar LLC, LexisNexis Risk Solutions [pdf]
> > There are many, many companies that the general public do not buy things from yet suffer their harms.

> Examples, please? I find this claim extremely dubious.

Any company purchasing my data without my knowledge and selling it to advertisers.

morder··on Scammed by the top result for 'Bitcoin wallet' in Apple App Store
even if it did show the click it's easy enough to edit the page in devtools to go wherever you want
morder··on Ask HN: If you could spend $100k to get healthy and fit, how would you do it?
Thanks! I'll check all this out. My goal is mainly to lose weight (about 30lbs) but I've been noticing little things like blood circulation isn't what it should be. I get tired quickly after a bit of exercise. Things like that. I'll check out the books. I always get confused over all the terms but haven't had the will yet to actually learn it.
morder··on Ask HN: If you could spend $100k to get healthy and fit, how would you do it?
As someone who doesn't know what all these terms mean e.g. "5/3/1 sets/repxs, 5x5 @first set last" (from the wendler website) can you explain them?

morder··on Take a break: Error-detecting codes in credit card numbers, ISBNs etc. (2000)
Would an error code protect against it if both accounts exist? if the account doesn't exist then the transfer wouldn't go through.
morder··on DeArrow: Crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails on YouTube
If you use something like yt-dlp that supports it then sponsorblock also strips it from the resulting files.
morder··on When the Neighbors Don’t Like Your 10-Foot-Tall Transformer Statues
Just a small correction but that's `Barricade` and not `Optimus Prime` on the right.
morder··on Star Trek (1964) [pdf]
If i recall right (from a documentary or interview with roddenberry) is that he made up the equation (though he knew of the drake equation) to justify that aliens exist to the people he was pitching to. I guess they just didn't believe that many aliens would exist.
morder··on California DMV accuses Tesla of falsely advertising Autopilot and FSD features
Not that it really matters since it's really not worth it but in the most recent <whatever> thing musk had he mentioned that anybody will be able to request fsd by the end of the year. Not sure if that means you need a safety score or not.
morder··on Tell HN: Google does not list application permissions in the Play Store any more
I'd prefer to avoid even downloading apps if they ask for permissions that aren't necessary. To hide that just makes me never want to use the play story anymore.
morder··on Show HN: I made a book with a hundred UI/UX tips
Because the colors on the top of each box indicate which are bad and good. Red for bad and green for good. But if you're color-blind (or on a b&w ereader) you can't see the distinction and have no idea which is the right one at a glance and this section is specifically about not using only colors to indicate information.
morder··on Show HN: I made a book with a hundred UI/UX tips
Purchased and put it on my e-reader. Still looks great in black & white. Thanks for this. I'm sure I'll get some good info and hope I am able to learn/integrate this knowledge into my projects.
morder··on How I Failed to Change Wasmer
Forgive my ignorance, please, but what is a `banana button`? I tried to search duckgo/google and the results are... interesting but probably not what you meant. Thanks!
morder··on Trump's Twitter account hacked after Dutch researcher guessed password?
i would have assumed a security researcher was smart enough to use a vpn located in the US
