Not everyone is as stupid as you're projecting them to be. You're in a bubble you created yourself.

Banning people from speaking doesn't change their mind. Every single tech site baffled.

That's great, Apple can stop charging thousands of dollars for them.

I didn't understand that part. If I remember right, the open street map website used to have a demo page of their own. In any case I'm very happy to see this.

I didn't realise open street map had made so much progress, the demo page looks really nice. The satellite view is not very detailed where I was checking but other than that I'm very impressed with the offering.

Really? What's the best Linux distro/toolset to use in order to get anything to show up in a usable way in HDPI? I don't think you can buy new monitors anymore that are at low enough a resolution to support modern Linux.

Agreed. Lets just skip the whole thing next time. :)

It seems it wasn't a new release. It opened in Europe in 2017 to very low ratings, the film didn't cost very much to make (relatively speaking) and this stunt has brought more attention to the film than any advertisement could hav

Persisting an npm package to your project for 5 css rules is a far more egregious case of "you might not need..." than a simple css reset could ever be.

Not true. For the small amount I am paying I am covered for one major surgery in a hospital per year. Hopefully I never have to use it. If I need two major surgeries in one year well then I'll pay for it. Sounds like I've got bigg

I've lived in countries that have socialized medicine and ones without and my experience was dramatically different. I was always taught that socialized medicine was better. However I never got half decent care until I bought private h

I would like to isolate every website I visit into a container, such that cookies or other tracking mechanisms are unable to be effective while on other pages.

So Twitter doesn't censor enough, dunno how much more time or money Twitter could have spent trying to control the narrative. So the lesson here is that it's never enough. If you had Twitter completely sanitized there'd be pe

Facebook has been embroiled in back to back privacy scandals since it opened and you still trust them? How much simpler does it get, I agree, that's pretty simplistic!

Storage costs next to nothing, recovery costs a lot. Why would facebook who depends on this data for income ever delete it. You get two massive benefits from keeping it and setting a "deleted" flag. Why would anyone expect anythin

It also indicates that you shouldn't pass out of that area. The vehicle should have at the very least stopped short of the road obstruction. But we don't yet know what led up to being in that lane, I was hoping the article in the

I find the concept fascinating that anyone would think an algorithm is "racist". More or less begging human interference with the algorithm in order to make it less racist, anything anyone does can then be viewed as racist.

I've been working on webmail that only receives messages, doesn't send any. And I've been using it to signup on websites with, it works really well for the purpose because anything that ever arrives was sent by a computer. I

What would alleviate your dependence on gmail? Maybe there's a product out there.

Google is not making it easy to avoid Google but I've done what I can to cut them out of my life. My smartphone is a custom build of Lineageos, clear of any closed source Google code, I don't use gmail or any other Google services

The most frightening thing about the data Google collects is location history. It was a real wake-up when I realised they use that data to map real life social networks. They know everyone you've bumped into every day, how long you tal

A lot of first party apps and basic os functionality also relies on Google Play Services. As Google have been building more and more into the closed source portion of their operating system. They are attempting to create a foothold where th

Up until now I wasn't aware microG was doing their own builds for Lineageos, when did that start? I'm quite happy to see that, it'll help a lot of people. I'd still rather see a world where custom builds aren't nece

I'd be very interested in seeing a Lineageos that does not include Google's proprietary and closed source Google Play Services. I understand you can download Lineageos without Google Play Services however a hundred different thing

I've heard about BEM many times and been forced to use it on a lot of projects. It seems to be reasonably commonplace I was hoping for some smaller tips so here's one I use very often. Vertical height of text comes up a lot in CSS

It seems like a strange set of tooling and I don't get to configure it how I like. Why would I want to use Babel to compile server side code rather than just use the latest version of Node? It's actually doing two compilation step
