It actually exists and is being developed for the last three yeras. But you have to compile it by youself. Just a way to prevent people from having expectations, but a lot of modern sites are working in it. Some errors, a bit slow, but they have rendering engine, css parser, js implementation and are working closely with w3c - they have found some bugs in the standard since they are implementing it directly.

Great and useful project, I don’t know if it will become real competition to firefox and chrome, but I guess it will get traction. A lot of people want new browser, some of them have money.

I always wondered why they haven’t been doing it from the start, seams like it is not as simple as I imagine.

People will take it, there is no other option and G is working hard not to allow another video platform.

Problem is ads they are playing are awful and loud. We will make way to silent them and black them out, it is not hard.

Bigger problem is content they are pushing is getting bad and is pushing creators into burnout. And I don’t want to see videos companies are creating, but want individual contributions.

It is, it has -9 points right now. While unpopular opinion, I agree with it if you like the content.

I use it, but I am trying to move to podcast and other platforms as much as possible.

Thing is you also stop sharing and commenting and engaging with other users. If it wasn’t useful they would pull the plug long ago, nothing technical is preventing them.

Maybe we should stop calling them adblockers.

I am not blocking ads I am blocking spyware and malicious scripts. I wouldn’t have anything against well behaving ads without js.

Also making it illegal is nit necessary, just don’t show me your content and exclude it from search results and we are good.

And it is always a question how they calculated handling of nuclear waste.

There are options, we can use coal and natural gas for on demand power to fill the gaps in renewables, we don’t have to quit all at once. New ideas for energy storage and comming around, some of them might be useful for small towns, others for remote places.

I have the same recommendation, try slack out it really feets.

But I think it will be like Genie fullfiling your wishes - you don’t really know what you are looking for, but it might really suit you.

Slackware is obvious choice, exactly what you are looking for.

It was my first distro and I miss it a lot. Simplicity and stability are main selling points.

I agree, we need support for it in libreoffice and than other document editors.

We can not expect people to use codes, but editor that saves to it would be grat.

It is unbelievable we do not have standard document format.

Here is nice help for python software to determine XDG directories (and more): https://pyxdg.readthedocs.io/en/latest/basedirectory.html

PyXDG contains implementations of freedesktop.org standards in python.

People also misuse other *ism words, it is quite normal to make general stereotypes of *ism especially for jokes.

You are correct, it while it was technically driver for kernel, meaning it is using kernel driver api, it was not driver for graphic card. Just a bit different way to load binary blob.

In my tilling wm (xmonad and before that ion3) all software is always full screen and I have them in “tabs" per “desktop” aka “tag”'.

It is so nice to have everything available via keyboard, after decade of same setup I don’t even think where is what.

And xmonad is soooo good with multiple monitors, nothing comes close.

Yes, the article is not very good. Main players here are google and gihub. My experience with media is that they often don’t publish everything, sometimes because of incompetence sometimes for sponsor money. So we have to use our heads a bit.

Not even mentioning google, not even.asking google what they think of youtube-dl, not even asking MS to comment. Give us at least a question and ‘they said no comment’.

Not really good reporting and we got used to that.

There is some difference between private communication and open source code that smis available to anyone.

Looks to me it is just MS playing hard to get with Google.

While title is click bite, they do say right at the beginning:

*Right now, it is pulling through only because of Microsoft’s $10 billion funding *

Pretty hard to miss, and than they go to explain their point, which might be wrong, but still stands. 700k i only one model, there are others and making new ones and running the company. It is easy over 1B a year without making profit. Still not significant since people will pour money into it even after those 10B.

You don’t really understand humans, do you? Or you don’t want to accept what being human is?

I have no idea, but on gentoo there is a use flag avahi and whenever I tried to enable it, it pulled so many dependencies I always blocked it.
