Decades from now I will have to explain what the "3D Objects" folder is to some kid

Probably the wheels falling off their cars. But I don't know I actually read the article

Yes but actually no

Voice assistants are money losing products. If they can do something like processing the wakewords on the device before chosing to send to a server they will. These companies are far too stingy to continuously stream audio to their servers

nay

Those are Mayan numerals for those curious

Not really seeing anonymous sources cited here. This looks like good old fashioned speculation.

I'm not holding my breath here. People seem far too willing to put up with stuff they wouldn't otherwise because it's Twitter. Far too many news orgs still point people to Twitter accounts.

Apple wrote bugged TLS code that broke using unbraced ifs with a goto, hence the name "goto fail". You don't need a goto to break this code though. All you need is a second indented line under the if

#2 is also the most insideous to update. Add another indented line to one of the conditions and the cotrol flow completely breaks while visually appearing fine.

C and a number of other languages have annoying pair of parallel syntax systems that makes it easy for people to read code one way and computers to compile it another. People read the indentation and newlines while compilers count braces and semicolons. #2 gets rid of the braces and makes control flow driven by semicolons making human visual inspection more likely to fail

Please don't use #2. It is how you get the goto fail bug

Something about making their own version of every app and than naming it k-something makes me think it's a cult.

It's not out yet and it's already been illegally parked

The atmosphere wants a word with you.

I will not stand slander of the arch wiki.

Also start with Linux Mint XFCE (unless they've fixed the stability problems with cinnamon)

From what I have seen so far it doesn't really matter if it was arranged. There just isn't much evidence of a command center. Sure there may have been a few AKs and a tunnel but that's hardly a command center.

Don't know about the image but they have published this story at least twice on their website in the last month. This looks comparatively sane compared with the chosen headlines

Firefighting foam is full of PFAS that tends to pollute groundwater. The last thing we need is more uses for it.

The format is fine. The rate of bugs in image parsing code in general is alarming but that is true of just about all the formats.

As someone who has had to put together websites:

• It is supported by every major browser
• It is halving the amount of your mobile data that I am using sending you images (With lossy compression it does even better)
• It is decreasing my network egress costs
• It is increasing the number of connections I can serve in a given time period

Nope I am not going to stop using this or AVIF (which does better)
