No. For 4K Netflix the browser needs to talk to a specific, locked down, part of your Intel (!) CPU. This only works on Edge in Windows or Safari on MacOS (it also works with the Store apps). It never works on Linux and it does not work on Chrome or Firefox.

That’s only because you use a Mac, on Windows only Edge allows 4k Netflix. It’s the integrated browsers that have the HDCP hardware features so it allows 4K

It also is very unstable when using multiple profiles. The profiles update individually, so very often you start a second profile and it updates firefox, which makes the first profile not work anymore. You don’t really notice that though, it just stops loading any websites.

Also on mobile it stops streams running in the background after some time, so when listening to something via firefox you have to actively use FF while listening, can’t leave the phone turned to standby

yeah thats why I said it only has the chance, not that it leads to good code

The only thing that has the chance to prevent unmaintainable garbage code is a plethora of linting rules.

I don’t see people hating discord for it, just pointing out that it was a bad choice from the beginning

same goes for staircases. A student dorm I frequented in NL had a staircase in the library that was super steep, had no railings and if you trip you fall like 10m. Every step was of a different size.

didn’t know that!

Of course the amount of insects drastically reduced, but for the windscreen there is another thing to take into account: Cars today are extremely aerodynamic. Even new Jeeps and the F150s are aerodynamic. Because of this, the insects are pushed away from your windscreen instead of against it, which is one of the main reasons why your windscreen isn’t full of insects anymore.

The only real exception to this is the Mercedes G-Class, but I doubt that a lot of us will ever sit in one

At least all countries I’ve been to have blinds on the outside. Germany and Netherlands have rolling shutters like these: https://www.rollorieper.de/images/rollladen/overview_rollladen_mobile.webp

Southern and Eastern european countries tend to have little doors on the outside like these: https://www.schneider-schoenwalde.de/fileadmin/\_processed\_/3/8/csm_moosgruene-fensterlaeden_d2513c37b0.webp which are made of wood or plastic

I have never been to poland, scandinavia or the baltics, but all countries I’ve been to have one way or another to completely block light and don’t let cats scratch the curtains

European blinds solve this as well, they are made of plastic and are on the outside of the window, not inside

The problem currently is that it looks cheap and out of place a lot of the time. I have seen quite a few games that use GenAI to add Assets and more to their game and currently it boiled down to these options:

1. imagery: random posters of some imaginery bands with unreadable text that looked like far higher quality than the rest of the assets in game. Also the imagery itself has no concurrency, everything looks different and nothing fits together
2. LLM: the LLM conversations in the games have two major problems that nobody solved: the NPCs in the conversations respond with information that doesn’t fit the game (e.g. saying things like “meet me in the park tomorrow”) and of course the NPC is not in the park. The second problem is that the games can’t interpret the responses, so they are completely dry. It destroys the immersion

The first problem can already be solved, but it takes a lot of work to get to the point where everything looks like it fits your game. I don’t think anyone will complain about GenAI when everything fits your game.

But don’t forget: We are talking about MtG here. WOTC sells MtG cards for an insanely high price and the art is something that makes the cards somewhat worth the price. MtG using GenAI would be just wrong.

JSON would be perfect if it allowed for comments. But it doesn’t and that alone is enough for me to prefer YAML over JSON. Yes, JSON is understandable without any learning curve, but having a learning curve is not always bad. YAML provides a major benefit that is worth the learning curve and doesn’t have the issues that XML has (which is that there is no way to understand an XML without also having the XSD for it)

There are eggs and a bottle of water

I think Sony still releases decent small phones

If you use your phone like 99% of people do, it will be completely fine. If you don’t do gaming or 4K video editing on your phone, there’s no problem. The CPU will even be fine for Instagram face filters for the foreseeable future

Samsung is using by far the worst OEM Rom, Pixel has by far the best. Go for the Pixel

I’m still baffled that no sextape of that woman has ever leaked

Actually the story goes different. There was no foot tequila scene planned, but Salma Hayek improvised it. It’s possible that with this scene, Salma Hayek started it all for Tarantino and his feet obsession

The law is ready for that. If and when the USB association agrees on a new standard thats not USB-C, then the new standard will be required after a transitional period. Right now it doesnt seem likely that this will happen in the near future, but in 10 years? Maybe
