  • Our team created a custom notification solution and managed to implement it in an energy-efficient way, an alternative to Google’s FCM that lets us fully bypass Google’s infrastructure.

    FFS, it's a calendar. It has no business connecting anywhere.

  • Love how when the dev of this felt compelled to link to atl, their browser gave them the link with /-/issues at the end. Really shows the effort that went into porting.

  • Do literally anything but use foolproof desktop apps in a system that cannot revert to a known state.

  • No, I don't thing scrubs / balances resume on boot up, they'd have to be started again.

  • No blocking and static content.

    If it HAS to have user-generated content, then 1) it's an app, not a website 2) have it untraceable to me from it to me 3) shove it in a jurisdiction that doesn't care. Still no blocking.

  • Can you get through a working day without a burning unneeded desire to regulate yet another thing that shouldn't be regulated?

    The amount of stuff governments are already regulating is, like, 5000% of what actually should be regulated. The remaining stuff can get by with the 20% of the existing regulation. And don't even begin to play the game of regulating private education into shape when what you need is a working public one.

  • No, it makes no sense. Keep looking. Worst case, buy some locally for cash.

  • I just wrote a YouTube scraper and exported to RSS and into my podcast client. Using YouTube any other way is masochism in comparison.

  • Convinces clueless FOSS communities to move off IRC. Onto a unusable protocol designed around netsplits they never cared about, yes, but it's n o v e l!

  • Oh yeah. I've started Marvel Midnight Suns, and 4 hours of cutscene later they show how you deploy on a mission: by walking on a rainbow bridge or something. I'm like: "brilliant, now that's a way to disguise loading with something I'm doing, even if it's just walking" , and then, at a random place of that bridge, an actual loading screen appears for a good minute. What's wrong with you.

  • Can't believe Nethack doesn't top the list.

  • If you think that's bad, just look up what happened to her husband.

  • My last MRI they billed ~$70. No insurance involved, a plain straight "you walk in from the street, you pay this" price.

  • Found the American.
