ATC sounded like she was putting words in the pilot’s mouth.

“Like a jetpack” followed by “Too shiny and too far” != “jetpack man spotted again”.

Um no? For more colour correction, you can use the vectorscope to target the universal skin tone line which fixes contrast for all skin tones.

Or maybe it's harder to find contrast in a darker skinned face in bad lighting.

How does this prevent shill reviews?

The spam and abuse happens on very large channels where incentives change quite a lot. E.g. pewdiepie had to disable community contributions because of people sneaking in advertising or spam in the middle of legitimate looking subtitles.

Not sure what your point is because that’s happened to people and they have no recourse.

He is a “free” user, what duty does Facebook owe him?

Let’s be real here, the only thing these banks would do is impose more draconian KYC/AML on customers to cover their ass. Whatever it takes to tick that box.

This would have been fun to put onto production machines. We had a botnet that was running ssh bruteforce with 10s requests per second with unique IPs. It stopped after we disabled password auth.

How did they know my address from having a Google account?

So you have to tell Google what your address is?

Powder game is the first I was aware to have a pressure system. There were of course falling sand games before that.

Sound like a case of the classic guess and check method.

Is this a clone of the classic: https://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/dust/

How does any of what you claim, even if true, make affirmative action not racist? Or do you intend to engage in whataboutism?

Also securing a country’s border is not racist.

It’s standard rhetoric at this point. It is pretty appropriate for this kind of rent-seeking.

Won’t be surprised if they just bribed the guard.

This is just one of the times where you’d just have to read the source. No documentation usually means I start diving into the source code.

Being a non-profit doesn’t give them a pass on making bad products. Being open source doesn’t give a free pass on bad products. If they choose a unsustainable business model, where making profit ruins their product, then they created this problem themselves.

I run Chromium, it probably spies on me, but it doesn’t do it in my face, and it doesn’t pretend otherwise.

When I run Firefox, they say they care, but they shamelessly bundle that crapware. Makes me wonder if another day after another Firefox update they’ll add Pocket 2.0 without me knowing.

It’s the same issue I have with Brave as well, I cannot stand the BAT integration.

I just think it is very seedy to bundle it with the browser and it rubs a lot of people the wrong way.

They are allowed to make good products too you know. If Pocket is the best they got then they deserve go to zero.

If they have a product so polarising then maybe it shouldn’t be bundled as bloat to the browser.

Its existence signifies that something fundamentally is wrong with Firefox and where Mozilla spends its resources.

If it is so unpopular, how come Firefox hasn’t axed it? How come only popular things like advanced extension support gets axed? These are the questions I ask when I use Firefox. Why are they spending time and resources on horrific products like Pocket when they could be literally improving their browser. Why is it pushed so aggressively and shamelessly?

Pocket is the perfect representation of all the grievances against Firefox rolled into an annoying in-your-face product and so of course it’s going to be the punching bag.

Maybe FF team can answer why they keep pushing crap like Pocket down our throats.

They are pretty xenophobic, if you are Chinese or worse Korean you might as well be a gaijin.

When was the last time North Korea had a race riot?

Also North Korea has a lot more geopolitical disadvantages at hand, namely sanctions.

An ethno state helps you avoid several classes of problems, like strict typing prevents runtime type errors. It doesn’t solve all administration problems.

China is still vast majority Han Chinese, with 55 minorities. It does not invalidate the point.

The real question is who runs python -m pip when there is a perfectly good /usr/bin/pip?

What value do high frequency arbitrage and MM desks add?

So it’s blind? Reminds me of the Invisible Man plot hole where the guy gets turned invisible and thus his retinas also become transparent and therefore he shouldn’t be able to see anything.
