I always had to fill out multiple pages of forms to get those free 1 year "trial" certs from startssl.

Played Half Life 2 for the first time in my life at 25, 10/10 perfect game.

For a lot of marginalized people Twitter was a place to escape to and find like-minded people, I can see how it's hard to make a new place feel as homely. Most of us here left another site because we didn't agree with the leadership so it's a very biased group, "just do the same thing we did". Not everyone is in as privileged of a position though and it might be way harder for them to leave than you can imagine, especially if they're addicted to it.

I've looked through the repo and it seems to be used to check for the current OpenRazer version and to get a list of supported devices and download images of them from Razer servers.

Whenever this meme pops up again I'm at least somewhat comforted this isn't the first year like this.

I'm quite thankful there's so many people willing to pay the full price to beta-test so I can later get it for 90% off with all bugs and performance issues fixed.

Sports like boxing come to mind where 3rd place isn't fought for, it's just bronze for both losers of the semifinals.

Neither do according to their respective docs.

Personally though I would've preferred an updated* test with more realistic hardware and zstd compression enabled cause this tested configuration is pretty rare in the real world.

* Their last btrfs compression benchmark was on Linux 4.11 in 2017 it seems, on a 120 GB Sata SSD.

So I've looked into the yearly stats and macOS stats and the fact that they call it OS X and the macOS version stats only go up to Catalina (the last 10.x, released in 2019) makes me believe most of these are macOS 11+ users.

I love the idea of it but I have to agree, it's just less repairable and causes even more e-waste. Smartphone advancement is at a point where we could easily be using the same device for at least 8 years, but not if they come with planned obsolescence as a feature.

Yeah, turns out it was an automated response to the account getting too many follows in a short time. There's enough genuinely bad things about the platform that we don't need to get mad at some speculation.

Amazing project, I went to try it immediately and it really just works. This is what I always wished Sunshine was like.
