I was really focussing on the GUI side of things. Many of us were really disappointed when it was revealed that the GUI functionality in the latest.NET Core was basically just a wrapper for existing Windows GUI functionality and not to be supported on Linux and Mac. It would be great if they could port XAML based interfaces for example to Linux and Mac and then their GUI support really would be cross platform like the rest of Core.
Only.NET Core is officially cross platform, and doesn't have GUI development features outside Windows. Even Mono's Winforms implementation on Linux is basically permanently deprecated and unsupported, unfortunately.
Acronyms don't have to be pronounced the same as the words they stand for, and in fact rarely are.
As for the hard "g" being more natural, no it isn't. In fact the first time I ever saw it I naturally pronounced it "jif". Or are you disputing the pronunciation of gin, genie, genius, gym, George, general, gentleman, etc.?
I'm probably in a minority here, but I disagree with this. For some reason white text on a black background makes my eyes strain after a while. I prefer dark text on light.
Fukushima is a really bad example. It was designed and built in the late 60s/early 70s. The thing was ancient and should have been long-since retired. Show me a nuke plant built in the last 20 years that's had an issue requiring expensive cleanup.
One thing that I've always found very annoying about Chrome's UI is that there are always close buttons on every tab, until you have like 100 tabs open. On desktop, you can use middle-click to close tabs... and I do. There's a long Google Groups thread somewhere with hundreds of users saying "please provide an option to remove close buttons on tabs" and Google did their usual arrogant thing of saying "no, it makes the product better [somehow]". I wouldn't say I accidentally close tabs all the time but I do maybe once every few days, and it is fucking annoying. Tabs should be buttonless!
So, "renewable" energy isn't renewable at all. An "effectively" unlimited supply is not unlimited. The sun will burn itself out one day. The kinetic energy from wind and water is extracted by turbines, so nothing is renewed. It's just plentiful. Same with nuclear energy. So you could actually call them both renewable, or say that nothing truly is. It's just marketing.
Could someone explain to me why wind and solar are better than *MODERN* nuclear plants, particularly fast breeder reactors, that output very little waste and are relatively safe? Nuclear plants don't vary with the sun and wind and so have no need for expensive/complex energy storage solutions to go along with them. Is the replacement of nuclear purely down to the green lobby not liking the word "nuclear" or is there any justification that has a scientific basis?
I think it's because I'm running it on one of the ports that Chrome considers to be "really dangerous" because it's used by another common protocol, as specified in this list:
It's really rather annoying that they assume they know better than me when I explicitly specify the port in the address bar. We're not talking about XSRF here.
You're joking, but I do find myself using Pale Moon a lot because Chrome is so damn fussy and prescriptive. For instance I purposely run my iptables wrapper's web interface on a high port number to make it less likely hackers will try and hit it, but Chrome just flat out refuses to load the site on a high port number unless you pass a commandline argument in each time you run it. Ludicrous.
Do the world a favor, get a certificate for your site, even if it's just the free one from let's encrypt
Yeah, and I'm sure you're happy to install their trojan on your machine and giving it write access to your cert store so it can keep replacing the cert because they're too stubborn to issue certificates that last a year!
I don't see anything there about requiring free speech on major platforms that form the de facto public space today. The Democrats not enforcing free speech. I wonder why that might be?
I agree. I'm a Brit and although I suspect my opinion will be in the minority, I'd be happy to ditch DST - for GMT all year round. I prefer lighter mornings to wake up to than lighter evenings (evenings are dark, who gives a shit really). GMT+1 in winter will basically mean waking up in the dark which is depressing.
My problem is with the fact that a fat obnoxious fuck called Tobin has a lot of influence over things. God knows why Moonchild likes him, he's rude and has absolutely no social skills or desire to be diplomatic to anyone. No idea how he functions in the real world. He literally kickbanned me from the IRC channel for saying that Pale Moon was a fork of Firefox because he's so autistic that you can't call it that because they changed some of the code.
5) I don't want to know whether the browser has the active focus. There should be no distracting changes in titlebar colour, shadow, or cursors. That way it's a nice surprise where my text turns up when I type.
Can we now get to a world where everyone uses Unix line endings? Where we can get rid of the reams of stupid code everywhere to deal with differing line endings? Where we stop wasting thousands of man-hours on line endings issues? Please god can we do this now?
Why go to all the power of inventing huge batteries that don't store enough power when nature has provided an extremely efficient one in the form of radioactive material?
I'll keep watching Youtube videos that report the facts in the articles (perfectly legal since they're facts) from guys like Secular Talk, the Young Turks and the BBC and get my news that way
That'll make you so far left I'm surprised you haven't fallen off yet.

Are we talking about whites who don't want to be a minority in their own country? Because if so, I'm here to tell you that THEY'RE the rational ones.
Here's a fact: minorities get treated like shit, whatever the circumstances. Especially if whites aren't in the majority.
No matter how good he is -- he would have had to been fired by almost all companies out there.
And they're almost all humourless boring corporate drone houses run by HR. He should take it as a badge of honour.

I have a Mega login. Wouldn't mind knowing whether it's been exposed.

2AU lol, that's still pretty close kiddo. Try Pluto, or deep space.

It's not like we can skew the demographics outside the company, what more do they want from us????
Don't worry, they're working on that VERY fast with mass immigration and birth rates.
Whites aren't allowed to have their own countries. Diversity for whites, ethnostates for everyone else. That's how it works.
Times haven't changed at all. People's ability to tell the truth without facing left-wing social repercussions has.
