These are good points. To be honest, I cannot fully follow the line of argument as presented by anovikov. It seems a tad strange to criticise Yandex for filtering content according to local law and recommending Google over it, when the latt

For iOS that is true. On Android Google still runs their monopoly. Except for Firefox, all major browsers are based on Chrome

Not necessarily reinvent the wheel, but not build the same glass buildings all across the world either. Your analogy is not that far off. Real world architecture is quite the same.

Which begs the question if we should not use Linux, considering the number of US contributions and the US being involved in countless illegal wars. The whole thing is absurd. Clownworld!

Thanks, from that I understand the brighter the color the more power it will use. So #010101 will use more than proper black but far less than proper white. That was my question, thanks a lot

Could you point me in the right direction please? It does talk about OLED, but I couldn't find where it specifically referred to the question here.

But does it use less power than #FFFFFF?

Well, with LCD it does not matter. It always uses the same power. Hence the question. So you are confirming that the statement is actually wrong. The darker a pixel on OLED, the less power it uses. Right?

Thanks, that's exactly what I am wondering Is #010101 effectively #FFFFFF or does it actually use less energy the darker it is? With LCDs we know it is the former, but what about OLED displays?

Russia? Last time I checked it was the European Union who sanctioned Russian energy and declared to want to stop buying Russian gas and oil.

Apart from the social security number being sensitive data mostly in the US, how is the OP's question privacy relevant? He probably simply would like to be able to compare salaries.

If your recollection of events does not go beyond 2022, that's certainly a legitimate question.

Isn't it ironic that this complaint is posted on a site which hijacks your mouse cursor? Speaking of usability ;)
