    He stole from a bank. Who cares. They are insured and prolly are not going to miss that money all that much.
    Maybe it was an executives bonus.

    I would like to get a lot better auto generated subs n YouTube.

  7. So why do these exists on Google Play Store Now Open For Progressive Web Apps (medium.com) · · Score: 1

    I like how Google is providing a solution that
    1. Is not needed.
    2. Is a fix for a problem they caused.
    You can write a simple HTML page without Googles help.
    Is this anything else except locking for displaying ads.

  8. 1877 for TRS.
    If it ain't broke why try top fix it.
    BT only is just future DRM.

  9. Stop listing 'Dark Mode' as a feature.
    It is not. It is just something to remind us how little control over our phone we have.

    Reinstalling your warez copy of a game involves one step: INSTALL. And it will still work even when steam no longer exists.

    Two steps.
    1. Mute/turn down the audio of the installer.
    2. Hit install.

    This seems to be more a dev/pub caused issue than Steam.

    Yeah, but that seems that will be an easy work around.
    Most of the cracked Steam games that I have come across have just a modified DLL and EXE. Small amount of data that would be easy enough to trade around and hosted somewhere.

    It is because they keep buying law makers to make laws to give them more money.

    No I am pretty sure it is because the top 1% of this country is hoarding all the money and paying for laws to keep it.

    That and this is prolly changing the Java that is taught with JS.

  19. I blame the English language for making everything difficult to spell and the spell checker not catching it.

  20. Yuck on JavaScript Overtakes Java As Most Popular Programming Language (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 3, Interesting

    JS was the reason I never did get into webdev besides some minor pages that just use CSS and HTML.

  21. And the tower of steel and chrome arose, subdoing the beast.
    Proclaiming itself the light instead of its true form of darkness.
    The fire rages, blinded by its own reflection.
    Then a great flood appeared, to drown and wash away the old.

    What do you think for Waterfox?

  22. The twins of Mammon quarrelled. Their warring plunged the world into a new darkness, and the beast abhorred the darkness. So it began to move swiftly, and grew more powerful, and went forth and multiplied. And the beasts brought fire and light to the darkness. from The Book of Mozilla, 15:1

    No.
    Against walled gardens.
    Which the movie and TV industries almost are, and video games right behind it.

    EA putting everything in Origin is not going to get me to use it. Same with UbiSoft. Same with Unreal.

    Unreal just got Metro Exodus as an exclusive. I had that in my wishlist since I liked the first two. Now they are removing it from Steam and I am going to get the TPB edition. If it was on Steam and the Unreal store, maybe I would've bought the cheaper of the two options.
