To me potato.app is as sketchy and shitty as getpotato.com. They simply say "I wanted to buy potato.com but I couldn't"

Yeah, well. That's got nothing to do with .dev. All the new TLDs are fucking dumb. Just a cash grab for the ICANN. Might as well get rid of TLDs altogether.

It would be creepy if they did that in a private conversation. In a public, easily searchable medium like Twitter, no.

Downloaded it. Whooping 150 MB that took over two minutes to download. Then data took like 10 minutes to show up, with no clear sign that the app was bootstrapping and not merely non-functional. The app keeps using 100% of my IO for 20 minu

It works fine. Just because some people can't stop themselves from committing crimes, that doesn't mean the general public doesn't respect deterrents. There are so many things I wouldn't do because I know I'd get in

Nickserv identify can be encrypted from your client to the services server if the network supports it. (SSL between you and all servers) No channel history, no threads, and no images are features. There's formatting: bold/italic&#

I disagree. People who care about not hitting 8.8.8.8 simply do not own a Chromecast.

How is it legal for them both to do it at the same time?

It doesn't bother me because it's a Chromecast, an appliance I don't want or need. If I needed something similar, I could get it from other manufacturers.

Yes I know. I've had it happen to me with a Huawei HG556a. You could disable it with admin access... which the ISP would not give you. Fun times. A good way of bypassing this would be to simply have Google run their DNS server in a por

You were blown away by companies not wanting to enter a support contract with every little library they use? And remember you are talking there about software, not infra. Software companies have tons of developers in-house. They probably do

Reading the comments on this post and all seems to be envy. While Chrome does useful stuff like this, Firefox progress in the web space is... eh... adding ads to the home page? Maybe Firefox should've went with a proposal on how to add

That is cool actually, it's nice to see he intends to do as he promised. People voted for him because of this. I thought he might give up. (Not American.)

Communities have existed since the dawn of man and CoCs weren't necessary to keep idiots away. When someone is an idiot, you don't need a set of rules to identify that he's an idiot, and to have a basis to kick him out. If yo

If you need a code of conduct to keep someone like him away, your project was dysfunctional to begin with.

It is benign but a bit annoying because it overlays all windows. You can just use a "rogue" KMS server to activate Windows with no risks for you. For example, as an admin: slmgr /skms kms.digiboy.ir

EU busybodies are unaccountable, unelected and practically live in another dimension. There's no way something like the SOPA protests could work here.
