  • but we can still point at people who have been in car accidents, people who have been injured or died from car accidents.

    If no one (or almoast no one) had ever died been in a car accident, including death, injury, or just a fender bender, then carrying insurance or wearing a seatbelt wouldnt be needed.

    If we had evidence of evidence of rampant/widespread voter fraud via mail in ballots, then overhauling or getting rid of the system would be needed.

  • On the police, and provincial government, 100%. They say around with their thumb up their ass, pandering to people bring our.capital to a half, while the truckers pissed in doors, honked Horns all day long, and blocked trade.

    The emergencies act is a drastic measure, but this situation warranted it. If the RCMP or the province had done SOMETHING earlier, it wouldn't have been needed.

  • Mozilla, the company behind Firefox and Thunderbird, has talked a lot in recent years about the unfair advantages that platforms give to their first-party web browsers. Platform Tilt is a new effort from Mozilla to show how Firefox and other third-party browsers stack up against Chrome on Android, Safari on iPhone, and other platform pairings.

    Mozilla said in a blog post, "There’s a long history of companies leveraging their control of devices and operating systems to tilt the playing field in favor of their own browser. This tilt manifests in a variety of ways. For example: making it harder for a user to download and use a different browser, ignoring or resetting a user’s default browser preference, restricting capabilities to the first-party browser, or requiring the use of the first-party browser engine for third-party browsers."

    Mozilla is now outlining these "tilts" in a new "Platform Tilt" issue tracker database, while encouraging other web browsers to publish their concerns in a similar fashion. The main purpose is to call more attention to how platforms like iOS and Windows favor their own web browser over the competition, which is useful information in the various antitrust legal actions against Apple, Microsoft, and other big tech companies.

    There are ten issues listed with Apple, including the Apple App Store forbiding third-party browser engines, no option to import browser data on iPhone and iPad from other web browsers, and difficult beta testing. On Android, Mozilla points out it can't import browser data, some features open Chrome instead of the default web browser, and Google search results on Android are worse.

    Mozilla also highlighted three issues with Microsoft. The process for setting the default browser on Windows is still difficult, and some Windows features forcibly open links in Edge instead of the default web browser. Microsoft also reverts the default browser to Edge during some Windows setup interactions. Most of those issues were recently made illegal by the European Union, but Microsoft is free to continue doing them in other regions, like the United States.

    The new database is a bit like Mozilla's WebCompat project, which documents the problems that popular websites have in Firefox and other less-popular web browsers. However, instead of specific sites creating a worse experience for Firefox users, Platform Tilt is about software platforms creating a worse experience.

    You can check out the full Platform Tilt database at the source link below. It will likely continue to be updated as Mozilla sorts through its issue trackers.

  • I dont think just filling it with joint compound would be enough, since its breaking from ongoing house movment.

    I've used Drywall Joint Tape to properly repair these, allowing ongoing house movement without these cracks reoccuring.

    Its defiantly more labor intensive, since you need to apply drywall plaster to spread over, then sand it down smooth, before doing a larger paint.

  • always reminds me of Top Gun Mavrick: The poor US, with its last generation fighters, against some unnamed micro power with top of the line fighter jets.

    Why they didnt just use missile, or a high altitude bomber, ill never know.

  • Thats great news, but the proof of the pudding is in the tasting, and we will have to see if Google makes any parts for their phones available. I havn't heard of Google... digitally keying their parts the way Apple does.

  • interesting chip, but since its faster but no more power efficient, not sure how usefull it will be for mobile devices. The Q3 already has problems with its battery life, if it had the XR2+ instead of the XR2, it would have even worse battery life!

  • Cameras were broken for an extended period of time

    Recorded video evidence for August 9 and 10 for the SHU area where Epstein was housed was only available from one prison security camera due to a malfunction of MCC New York’s Digital Video Recorder system that occurred on July 29, 2019. While the prison’s cameras continued to provide live video feeds, recordings were made for only about half the cameras. MCC New York personnel discovered this failure on August 8, 2019, but it was not repaired until after Epstein’s death. As detailed in this report, like many other BOP facilities, MCC New York had a history of security camera problems. ~DOJ Report

    Its not like the cameras were working until he was put there, then started working afterward (despite what people may tell you). There were known, ongoing camera problems for the whole facility...

    Just shows the typical incompetence in American prisons.
