Are all animals entirely behavioral by upbringing? There are no inherent genetic traits in animals?

Maybe servers need a contingency plan to be able to communicate with users as to backup options in case one goes down?

Many people downvoting you without admitting that pitbulls are the leading cause of all dog-related deaths. Facts are facts, unfortunately.

And we used to have to manually write the hexadecimal values of colors in arrays by hand to generate them. Uphill, both ways.

You angered a few of the rugrats with that comment. LoL j/k xD :O ;-/

I have stopped contacting family members because the constant emoji spam kills all desire to have a conversation with them. Feels like empty meaningless chatter.

It almost feels like talking to a child when I see emoji spam from people. Emojis are just cheap, which makes them way less valuable by definition and added visual noise distracts from the point.

This sums it up. It's meaningless noise. I wish there were a stable way of removing all emojis from a page via browser extension. Chrome's kinda broke youtube comments, filtering out comments that didn't have emojis, haven't looked for a firefox replacement yet.

That all looks absolutely horrific, but clearly they have some customers somehow?

This is true, because smart TVs have shitty processors, and consoles do not. Consoles are made for media, smart TVs have shitty embedded software on slow hardware, comparatively.

All my smart TVs have existed without wifi or connections to the net themselves, only the devices that connect (Nintendo, Playstation, Roku, etc) . It's easy from that perspective, all depends on what you want and need.

I have never had any smart TV complain (yet) that I have never once connected wifi. I am guessing there would be lawsuits, that a physical device requiring internet and requiring you to connect it just to function, would get sued in a class action of some kind. I use other connection systems via HDMI to transcode media, and even people who still want TV do not need to connect the TV itself to wifi, since it should all come over through HDMI ideally (or DP or whatever cables it may be.)

Interesting, it came up in news feeds on other sites. I'll check more in the future, that's the first time I've had that happen.

I agree with your statements, I'm using it because it's insanely good at me giving it a list of any number of instructions to include in a code template file in any language I want and it will give me a great starting template with most functions working out of the gate and I can tweak and extend from there. It's generative, it generates exactly what I tell it to. I'm not asking it to give me stock trading tips.

I'm not sure why you got downvoted, your link was informative, thanks for sharing.

What do you mean "committed"? To a mental institution or a prison?

It will still be compatible, Firefox just doesn't need to add a limiter, meaning the same extension will run better on Firefox than Chrome in the end. That's how I see this all unfolding at least. (I'm a javascript developer, I audit all the extension code I run generally, my perspective is purely technical and not political on the matter.)

In this specific context we are talking about Manifest V3 artificially limiting the number of rules in an extension. That's it, it's artificial, there is no reason for it to exist other than Google purposely degrading the capability. What does Mozilla have to gain by also degrading themselves?

It would stand to reason that if they were as bad as Chrome, that people would just stick with Chrome and they would miss out on profit entirely, I would think. If monetary incentive is a reason, purposely hamstringing themselves seems counter-intuitive toward that goal.
