I remember that Ice soap was also around this time, so of course reddit took it too far and combined them.

I like Floorp better for a Firefox variant, feels more developed and stable than zen.

I use mold for everything, but don’t really bat an eye at using mould for the tool that is used to make parts which I see pretty often through my work.

Seriously, my bank used to have a password requirement that was 6 characters exactly, no more or less. Plus symbols were completely banned. The reason, it was also your phone password, so in reality it was a 6 digit numeric password where they interpreted the T9 letters as numbers.

I unreasonably hate the word “moreover”. I see no reason why you wouldn’t use the words “also”, “additionally”, or even “furthermore” that sound way better when read.

No matter how I set it up it gives me suggestions to specific pages I don’t want instead of the base domain.

Some months ago they completely fucked up their address bar suggestions to the point where I have tried again to move to another browser. I’d prefer them to fix that before updating their UI.

That doesn’t really help because the TV devices can’t be configured to use the non-gateway wifi network.

The only solution I can come up with is to add a wifi network like that, but then also get a chromecast for each TV and use a device with the app to cast the TV they want to watch.

Their TV boxes are garbage too, my parents cannot get reliable 5GHz WiFi from the “gateway” and the devices cannot be configured to 2.4GHz only which works fine until it thinks the 5GHz signal is strong enough and automatically switches before dropping again. The only “solutions” Rogers provides are to move the router or to buy their overpriced “pod” repeaters.

God no, Christy Clark needs to go away and never be seen again. Even Poilievre is preferable to that horrible person.

Also, she isn’t a Liberal by any stretch, does she just want to jump in wherever might take her? The BC Liberals were a conservative party.

It depends on how powerful of a machine you need. My server only costs about $9.25/mo to run and it is way overpowered for the services I run on it.

Terrible news, private equity firms ruin everything they touch.

Shit like this is why we need strong regulations for anything that is a medical device that is depended on by people. I don’t give a shit if it isn’t profitable anymore, these companies need to support their customers that may be significantly impacted if their devices don’t work.

Pretty much all my sleep/suspend issues with Linux went away when I switched to Manjaro from Fedora on my 11th gen Framework 13. Sometimes it doesn’t work, but the majority of the time I can open my laptop after a couple days and still have most of my battery.

This is a topic that could be a novel for how much there is to consider, but in the end it comes down to resources and companies trying to choose what it best for the company overall. For a company to do anything, they are giving up many other things they could be doing instead. Whether it is limited budgets, limited personnel, or company priorities every decision made is always a tradeoff that means you aren’t doing something else.

Most companies prioritize releasing new product so they can start getting revenue from it as soon as possible. A new product has the largest potential market, and thus makes shareholders happy to see revenue coming in. The sales from a new product are the easiest ones in most product’s lifecycle. Additionally. releasing new products helps keep you ahead of competitors. So ongoing maintenance work is de-prioritized over working on new things.

The goal of testing is to simulate potential use cases of a product and ensure that it will work as expected when the customer has the product in their hands. It is impossible to fully test a product in a finite amount of time, so tests are created that expose flaws within a reasonable search space of the expected uses. If an issue is found then it needs to be evaluated about whether it is worth fixing and when. There are many factors that affect this, for example:

• How much would it cost to fix?
• How much time would it take to fix?
• Does it need to be fixed for launch or can it be a running change?
• How many customers are actually going to see the issue? Is it just a small annoyance for them or will it cause returns/RMAs?
• Is it within the expected use case of the product?
• Can we mitigate it in software/firmware instead of changing hardware?
• Is it a compliance/regulatory issue?
• Would this bring in new customers for the product?
• Was this done a specific way for a reason?

Unfortunately, after considering all this the result is often that it isn’t worth the effort to fix something, but it is considered.

Good to see you are out of your 5 year coma…

Even in that context it doesn’t make any sense. BC saw how badly the BC Liberals fucked everything up for a decade+ they were in power due to their corruption for corporate interests and kicked them to the curb. Now we have a government that is actually trying to fix important things like housing costs, healthcare, and the environment yet the people are saying "Nah, we would prefer what conservative governments in other provinces are doing to make services worse by privatizing them. "

I get that people are unhappy with their decline of quality of life, but we know from looking elsewhere that a Conservative government is not the solution that helps most people.

AI has tons of potential but the final decision should come from a person that evaluates the output for correctness. This is a great example of that.

Paul’s online math notes are by far the best resources out there for the first few university level math courses.

It is a great shame that his linear algebra notes were removed years ago.
